Authentic and recombinant bilirubin oxidases are in different resting forms.

چکیده
Myrothecium verrucaria bilirubin oxidase expressed in Aspergillus oryzae is in a resting form different from that of the authentic bilirubin oxidase, but reaches the resting form of the authentic enzyme after one cycle of reduction and reoxidation with dioxygen as shown by the absorption and electron paramagnetic resonance spectra.

Bilirubin Oxidase from Myrothecium verrucaria Physically Absorbed on Graphite Electrodes. Insights into the Alternative Resting Form and the Sources of Activity Loss
The oxygen reduction reaction is one of the most important chemical processes in energy converting systems and living organisms. Mediator-less, direct electro-catalytic reduction of oxygen to water was achieved on spectrographite electrodes modified by physical adsorption of bilirubin oxidases from Myrothecium verrucaria. The existence of an alternative resting form of the enzyme is validated. ...
متن کاملNumerical free vibration analysis of higher-order shear deformable beams resting on two-parameter elastic foundation
Free vibration analysis of higher-order shear deformation beam resting on one- and two-parameter elasticfoundation is studied using differential transform method (DTM) as a part of a calculation procedure. First,the governing differential equations of beam are derived in a general form considering the shear-freeboundary conditions (zero shear stress conditions at the top and bottom of a beam). ...
متن کاملHigh-level expression of Myrothecium verrucaria bilirubin oxidase in Pichia pastoris, and its facile purification and characterization.
Bilirubin oxidase (BO) from Myrothecium verrucaria (authentic BO) catalyzing the oxidation of bilirubin to biliverdine was overexpressed in the methylotrophic yeast, Pichia pastoris. The cDNA encoding BO was cloned into the P. pastoris expression vector pPIC9K under the control of the alcohol oxidase 1 promoter and its protein product was secreted using the Saccharomyces cerevisiae alpha-mating...
متن کاملType III Cu mutants of Myrothecium verrucaria bilirubin oxidase.
Type III Cu ligand, His456 and His458, of Myrothecium verrucaria (MT-1) bilirubin oxidases (BO) [EC 1.3.3.5] were doubly mutated as to Lys, Asp, and Val. In spite of perturbation of the type III Cu centers, these mutants were pale blue or colourless when isolated. However, they became intense blue on reaction with reducing agents such as dithionite, ascorbate, hexacyanoferrate(II), and octacyan...
متن کاملRedox potentials of the blue copper sites of bilirubin oxidases.
The redox potentials of the multicopper redox enzyme bilirubin oxidase (BOD) from two organisms were determined by mediated and direct spectroelectrochemistry. The potential of the T1 site of BOD from the fungus Myrothecium verrucaria was close to 670 mV, whereas that from Trachyderma tsunodae was >650 mV vs. NHE. For the first time, direct electron transfer was observed between gold electrodes...
