Direct electron transfer between copper-containing proteins and electrodes.
The electrochemistry of some copper-containing proteins and enzymes, viz. azurin, galactose oxidase, tyrosinase (catechol oxidase), and the "blue" multicopper oxidases (ascorbate oxidase, bilirubin oxidase, ceruloplasmin, laccase) is reviewed and discussed in conjunction with their basic biochemical and structural characteristics. It is shown that long-range electron transfer between these enzy...
متن کاملProof for the Ascorbate Oxidase Activity of Ceruloplasmin.
The ascorbate oxidase activity of ceruloplasmin has been a subject of controversy because of (a) the relatively low oxidase activity of this serum copper protein toward ascorbic acid and (b) the different conclusions reached by several investigators. In 1951, Holmberg and Laurel1 (1) reported that ascorbic acid was a substrate of ceruloplasmin although it was less active as a substrate than p-p...
متن کاملon translation of phatic communion and socio-cultural relationships between the characters of the novels
phatic communion is a cultural concept which differs across cultures. according to hofstede (2001), the u.s. tends to have individualistic culture; however, asian countries tend to have collectivistic cultures. these cultures view phatic communion differently. in individualistic cultures like u.s., phatic communion reflects speakers’ socio-cultural relationships in conversations. to see whether...
15 صفحه اولBasic and applied features of multicopper oxidases, CueO, bilirubin oxidase, and laccase.
Multicopper oxidases (MCOs) such as CueO, bilirubin oxidase, and laccase contain four Cu centers, type 1 Cu, type II Cu, and a pair of type III Cu's in a protein molecule consisting of three domains with homologous structure to cupredoxin containing only type I Cu. Type I Cu mediates electron transfer between the substrate and the trinuclear Cu center formed by a type II Cu and a pair of type I...
متن کاملAzide binding to the trinuclear copper center in laccase and ascorbate oxidase.
Azide binding to the blue copper oxidases laccase and ascorbate oxidase (AO) was investigated by electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) and pulsed electron-nuclear double resonance (ENDOR) spectroscopies. As the laccase : azide molar ratio decreases from 1:1 to 1:7, the intensity of the type 2 (T2) Cu(II) EPR signal decreases and a signal at g approximately 1.9 appears. Temperature and microwave...
