Peroxide oxidation of indole to oxindole by chloroperoxidase catalysis.
In the presence of chloroperoxidase, indole was oxidized by H2O2 to give oxindole as the major product. Under most conditions oxindole was the only product formed, and under optimal conditions the conversion was quantitative. This reaction displayed maximal activity at pH 4.6, although appreciable activity was observed throughout the entire pH range investigated, namely pH 2.5-6.0. Enzyme satur...
متن کاملOxidation of indole-3-acetic acid to oxindole-3-acetic acid by an enzyme preparation from Zea mays.
Indole-3-acetic acid is oxidized to oxindole-3-acetic acid by Zea mays tissue extracts. Shoot, root, and endosperm tissues have enzyme activities of 1 to 10 picomoles per hour per milligram protein. The enzyme is heat labile, is soluble, and requires oxygen for activity. Cofactors of mixed function oxygenase, peroxidase, and intermolecular dioxygenase are not stimulatory to enzymic activity....
متن کاملConversion of indole to oxindole under methanogenic conditions.
When indole was incubated under methanogenic conditions with an inoculum of sewage sludge, the chemical was metabolized with 10 days and temporary formation of an intermediate was observed. The metabolite was isolated by thin-layer chromatography and determined to be 1,3-dihydro-2H-indol-2one (oxindole) by UV spectroscopy (lambdaMAX, 247 nm) and mass spectrometry (m/z, 133). The methane produce...
متن کاملSinglet oxygen production by chloroperoxidase-hydrogen peroxide-halide systems.
Singlet oxygen production in the chloroperoxidase-hydrogen peroxide-halide system was studied using 1268 nm chemiluminescence. With chloride or bromide ions, singlet oxygen is produced by the mechanism (formula; see text) (formula; see text) where X- is chloride or bromide ion. Under conditions where there is high enzyme activity and when Reaction B is fast relative to Reaction A, singlet oxyge...
متن کاملClxx. the Oxidation of Sulphydryl Compounds by Hydrogen Peroxide. I. Catalysis of Oxidation of Cysteine and Glutathione by Iron
THE oxidation of thiol compounds by oxygen and methylene blue has, in recent years, been very extensively studied, while their oxidation by hydrogen peroxide has suffered almost complete neglect. Abderhalden and Wertheimer [1923] found that cysteine, like other mercaptans, was instantaneously oxidised by hydrogen peroxide in neutral solution, and that this oxidation was unaffected by cyanide. A...
