Thermally induced conformational changes in horseradish peroxidase

Abstract: Detailed differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), steady-state tryptophan fluorescence and far-UV and visible CD studies, together with enzymatic assays, were carried out to monitor the thermal denaturation of horseradish peroxidase isoenzyme c (HRPc) at pH 3.0. The spectral parameters were complementary to the highly sensitive but integral method of DSC. Thus, changes in far-UV CD corresponded to changes in the overall secondary structure of the enzyme, while that in the Soret region, as well as changes in in… Show more

“…7). Thermal inactivation of HRP can be conveniently monitored using a chromogenic substrate system providing a reliable correlate with protein stability, as defined by thermally induced conformation changes (24,25). In such system we also have not observed any aggregation in HRP solutions both in the presence and absence of polymer (size-exclusion HPLC, data not shown), which is in accord with earlier findings (26).…”

“…It is reassuring to know that the encapsulated HRP displays catalytic activity as the matrix forming reaction could damage the enzyme, in terms of structure or removal of the heme group. The latter has been shown to occur in acidic conditions (below pH 3) [24]. The form of the curves reflects the fact that as the matrix shrinks the pore interconnections narrow and diffusion of the reactants becomes harder, hence the longer time taken to achieve maximum activity.…”

“…Enzyme Activity and Biochemical Characterization HRP concentrations were determined by spectrophotometer considering an extinction coefficient of 102 mM −1 cm −1 at 403 nm [23][24][25][26]. Horseradish peroxidase activity was measured spectrophotometrically at room temperature using phenol/4-aminoantipyrine and H 2 O 2 as substrates.…”
