Photo-oxidation of desaspidin sensitized by chlorophyll.
The uncoupler desaspidin is labile in the presence of oxidants at alkaline pH values. It also undergoes chlorophyll-sensitized photooxidation at a more acid pH. The products of the oxidation appear to have negligible activity in inhibiting electron transfer and photophosphorylation.Failure of desaspidin to uncouple in the presence of oxidants used as cofactors of noncyclic electron flow is pres...
متن کاملDye-sensitized photo-oxidation of enzymes.
Heart lipoamide dehydrogenase, liver alcohol dehydrogenase and egg-white lysozyme are photo-oxidized in the presence of various dye sensitizers. The photodynamic process is preceded by the binding between the enzyme and the sensitizers. Among the commonly used dyes, halogenated xanthines and thiazine are effective sensitizers for the photo-inactivation of these three enzymes. Histidine residues...
متن کاملFlavin-mediated photo-oxidation for the detection of mitochondrial flavins.
We report a new approach for the detection of mitochondrial flavins through photo-oxidation of a probe molecule. Probe 1 showed high brightness (ε × Φf = 6.50 × 103 M-1 cm-1) at long wavelengths (maximum emission wavelength, λmax = 600 nm) upon photo-oxidation, assisted by the strong electron accepting ability of the isoalloxazine moiety in flavins. Probe 1 also exhibited high selectivity for f...
متن کاملInhibition of the Bioluminescent Oxidation of Reduced Flavin Mononucleotide by 2-decenal.
illustrates the fact that Reactions 1 and 2 can occur in the absence of aldehyde with the production of an intermediate designated as an enzyme-sulfur peroxide. It has been shown that in the absence of aldehyde this intermediate is destroyed via a reaction indicated by 3a, in which a relatively low level light emission occurs. In the presence of aldehyde, however, the photon yield is greatly in...
