Catalytic Promiscuity: Catecholase-like Activity and Hydrolytic DNA Cleavage Promoted by a Mixed-Valence FeIIIFeII Complex

چکیده
Os estudos sobre enzimas têm mostrado que existe uma relação clara entre a evolução enzimática e a propriedade de promiscuidade catalítica que elas podem apresentar. Com isto, o desenvolvimento de sistemas biomiméticos capazes de atuar de modo promíscuo, de forma similar a algumas enzimas, mostrou-se um novo desafio para os químicos bioinorgânicos. Neste trabalho, reportamos a estrutura de raios X e os estudos em solução e de promiscuidade catalítica do complexo [(bpbpmp)Fe(m-OAc) 2 Fe](ClO 4 ), (1), contendo o ligante binucleante não-simétrico 2-{[(2-hidroxibenzil)(2-piridilmetil)aminometil]-4-metil-6-[bis(2-piridilmetil)aminometil]}fenol (H 2 bpbpmp). Estudos de titulações potenciométrica e espectrofotométrica e cinéticos mostraram que esse composto de coordenação gera espécies ativas capazes de clivar o dsDNA (DNA de fita dupla) hidroliticamente, com um aumento de 1,9×10 na taxa de reação em comparação com a reação não catalisada, e capazes de oxidar o 3,5-di-terc-butilcatecol (3,5-dtbc), com k cat = 1,16 × 10 s e K M = 7,1×10 mol L. Assim, o complexo 1 apresenta atividades de hidrolase e oxidoredutase, sendo um interessante modelo sintético para estudos de promiscuidade catalítica.

متن کاملPartial purification and characterization of cresolase and catecholase activity of black mulberrys (Morus nigra)
Polyphenol oxidase from Black mulberrys was extracted and partially purified through (NH4)2SO4 precipitation, dialysis and ion exchange chromatography. P-cresol was the better substrate for cresolase activity with a Km (11.5 mM) and catechol for catecholase activity with Km (6.4 mM) at pH 5. Km for cresolase and catecholase activity of IsoPPOII at pH 6.5 were 12 and 8.5 and for IsoPPOIII at pH ...

متن کاملCatalytic versatility and backups in enzyme active sites: the case of serum paraoxonase 1.
The origins of enzyme specificity are well established. However, the molecular details underlying the ability of a single active site to promiscuously bind different substrates and catalyze different reactions remain largely unknown. To better understand the molecular basis of enzyme promiscuity, we studied the mammalian serum paraoxonase 1 (PON1) whose native substrates are lipophilic lactones...
