Electrochemical activation of glucose oxidase with a 140-fold enhancement in intramolecular electron transfer rate constant.
In this work, we describe the electrochemical activation of glucose oxidase (GOx) via covalent attachment of a novel redox mediator, Os(bpy)2(API)Cl (bpy = 2,2'-bipyridine, API = 3-aminopropylimidazole), to the peptide backbone of GOx targeting at aspartate and glutamate residues. Cyclic voltammetry showed a pair of well-defined voltammetric peaks centered at 0.11 V for the activated enzyme. Os...
متن کاملIntramolecular Electron Transfer
In most of the oxidation—reduction reactions involving net electron transfer which have been studied, the experimental results yield only second order rates, and thus reflect the barrier to bringing reactants together as well as that for the electron transfer act itself. Recent advances in synthetic procedures make it possible to measure as an intramolecular or first order process, net electron...

متن کاملEffect of solution viscosity on intramolecular electron transfer in sulfite oxidase.
Our previous studies have shown that the rate constant for intramolecular electron transfer (IET) between the heme and molybdenum centers of chicken liver sulfite oxidase varies from approximately 20 to 1400 s(-1) depending upon reaction conditions [Pacheco, A., Hazzard, J. T., Tollin, G., and Enemark, J. H. (1999) J. Biol. Inorg. Chem. 4, 390-401]. These two centers are linked by a flexible po...
متن کاملUnmediated heterogeneous electron transfer reaction of ascorbate oxidase and laccase at a gold electrode.
The unmediated electrochemistry of two large Cu-containing proteins, ascorbate oxidase and laccase, was investigated by direct-current cyclic voltammetry. Rapid heterogeneous electron transfer was achieved in the absence of promoters or mediators by trapping a small amount of protein within a solid, electrochemically inert, tributylmethyl phosphonium chloride membrane coating a gold electrode. ...
