Surfactant-histidine-heme ternary complex as a simple artificial heme enzyme in organic media

Abstract: A surfactant–heme complex which shows peroxidase activity in organic media has been prepared by a method utilizing water‐in‐oil (W/O) emulsions. Both the aqueous phase pH and the type of surfactant appeared to have prominent effect on the catalytic activity of the heme complex in benzene. The catalytic efficiency of the heme complex was enhanced more than ten times by adding histidine to the aqueous phase of W/O emulsions in the preparation process. The enhancement of peroxidase activity was observed only in a… Show more

“…However, this method is applicable to hydrophilic proteins such as chymotrypsin (Abe et al, 1997a) and peroxidase . The extent of enzymatic catalysis in organic media using surfactant-protein complexes with various types of model protein, such as lipase (Huang et al, 1998), peroxidase (Kamiya et al, 1999(Kamiya et al, , 2000Kamiya and Nagamune, 2002;Okazaki et al, 2000aOkazaki et al, , 2001Michizoe et al, 2003Michizoe et al, , 2004, laccase (Okazaki et al, 2000b;Michizoe et al, 2005) and protease (Okazaki et al, 2000c) was investigated.

“…[16][17][18] Iron porphyrins are biocatalysts, which catalyze oxidative reactions by decomposing hydrogen peroxide at the expense of various substrates, such as phenols and amides. 19 Thus, a peroxidase-like MIP that efficiently catalyzes the oxidation of 4-aminophenol (4-APh) with considerable substrate specificity in the presence of hydrogen peroxide using a flow injection analysis system coupled to amperometric detection was described. Complementing these results, in the present work, presents the characterization by several physical techniques of the MIP, as well as, parameters such as the specificity, enzyme-mimic activity catalytic effects and Michaelis-Menten kinetics were evaluated.…”

“…Arti®cial peroxidase mimics have been also investigated in recent years, and some of these investigations have involved the design and synthesis of porphyrin derivatives. For example, Takahashi et al (1986) prepared a polyethylene glycol-modi®ed hemin that was soluble and exhibited peroxidase activity in several organic solvents; Johnstone et al (1997) synthesized Mn(III)-tetraphenylporphyrin carried in amphiphilic water-soluble polymers and demonstrated that it had peroxidase activity in an aqueous environment; Kamiya et al (1999) demonstrated that a surfactanthistidine-hemin complex showed peroxidase activity in organic media. On the other hand, the generation of hemin-binding antibody was proposed as another approach to obtain arti®cial peroxidase molecules.…”
