Data on the catalytic mechanism of thiol peroxidase mimics

چکیده
We have recently reported SAR data describing the pharmacological activity of a series of phenyl alkyl selenides and tellurides which catalyse the oxidation of thiols by hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), "The design of redox active thiol peroxidase mimics: dihydrolipoic acid recognition correlates with cytotoxicity and prooxidant action" B. Zadehvakili, S.M. McNeill, J.P. Fawcett, G.I. Giles (2016) [1]. This thiol peroxidase (TPx) activity is potentially useful for a number of therapeutic applications, as it can alter the outcome of oxidative stress related pathologies and modify redox signalling. This article presents data describing the molecular changes that occur to a TPx mimic upon exposure to H2O2, and then the thiol mercaptoethanol, as characterised by UV-vis spectroscopy and HPLC retention time.

Catalytic activity of a series of potent amideand amine-based organoselenium compounds are studied in the presence of various aromatic thiols having electron donating and electron withdrawing substituents on the phenyl ring. This study suggests that the antioxidant activities of the synthetic GPx mimics can be significantly increased by the incorporation of a suitable electron donating group on...

Glutathione peroxidase (GPX) is a critical antioxidant selenoenzyme in organisms that protects cells against oxidative damage by catalyzing the reduction of hydroperoxides by glutathione (GSH). Thus, some GPX mimics have been generated because of their potential therapeutic value. The generation of a semisynthetic selenoenzyme with peroxidase activity, which matches the catalytic efficiencies o...

The production of reactive oxygen species occurs during the natural metabolism of oxidative-breathing cells. Among reactive oxygen species, hydrogen peroxide is more dangerous to cell life due to its long half-life, but it is meanwhile an important regulatory molecule in redox signaling in living things. Peroxidases are one of the key antioxidant enzymes that are widely distributed in nature an...

The binding behavior of a competitive inhibitor, N-phenylbenzhydroxamic acid (BHA) against horseradish peroxidase (HRP) was studied in order to understand and predict the interaction mechanism of hydrogen donors with the enzyme. The dissociation constants of the complexes of HRP-BHA, HRP-donor and HRP-BHA-azide were estimated at specified conditions by difference spectroscopy. The binding s...
