Sensitized Photooxidation of Di‐ and Tripeptides of Tyrosine*

Abstract: This paper studies the dye-sensitized photooxidation of tyrosine (tyr) and tyr di- and tripeptides (tyr-tyr and tyr-tyr-tyr) mediated by singlet molecular oxygen (O2[1 delta g]) in alkaline media. Photooxidation quantum efficiencies (phi r) were obtained by determining the overall and reactive rate constants of interaction with the oxidative species, employing the time-resolved O2(1 delta g) phosphorescence detection method and static-photolysis actinometric method, respectively. The interaction of O2(1 delta … Show more

“…It is known that Tyr is a moderate O 2 ( 1 △ g ) physical deactivator when the phenolic group is undissociated, at physiological pH conditions for example. The presence of the phenolate form at alkaline pH confer to Tyr characteristics of a relatively strong O 2 ( 1 △ g ) quencher with chemical and physical components …”

“…The rate for the dipeptide Trp-Trp is approximately twice as much as that of free Trp, whereas the slowest rate is exhibited by Trp-Tyr. It is known that free Tyr behaves as a typical phenol with regard to photooxidation kinetics, being practically an exclusive physical quencher of O 2 ( 1 D g ) at pH 7 (5,6,19). Figure 5 shows the fluorimetric analysis of the number of NH 2 groups upon sensitized photooxidation in pH 7 water, after up to 60-80 min irradiation.…”

“…Nevertheless, apparently these findings cannot be extrapolated to other families of dipeptides and polypeptides. The photooxidation efficiencies of the dipeptides Tyr-Gly, Gly-Tyr, Tyr-valine, valine-Tyr, Gly-Met, Gly-His and Tyr-Tyr, of the tripeptide Tyr-Tyr-Tyr and of other tripeptides with Tyr and valine, with Tyr bonded to nonreactive AA, are highly influenced by the presence of the peptide bond (5,6,19,20). A similar result has been reported for the reactivity of some larger peptides with O 2 ( 1 D g ) (21).…”
