Horseradish peroxidase was encapsulated in calcium alginate for the purpose of phenol removal. Considering enzyme encapsulation efficiency, retention activity and enzyme leakage of the capsules, the best gelation condition was found to be 1 % w/v of sodium alginate solution and 5.5 % w/v of calcium chloride hexahydrate. Upon immobilization, pH profile of enzyme activity changes as it shows ...

Binding of p-cresol to native horseradish peroxidase was investigated by differential spectrophotometry, and the value lo3 Kdiss = 3 M was obtained at neutral and acid pH; binding is not competitive with that of cyanide and hydroxide. The Soret region spectrum of Compound II of the enzyme was measured in the steady state at pH 4.26, 6.89, and 10.95, and the differences were found to be too smal...

Introduction Peroxidases are common oxidoreductases present in plants, animals and micro-organisms. Plant peroxidases are classified as basic, neutral or acidic enzymes, depending on their profiles of elution during ion-exchange column chromatography or isoelectric points [ 11. Horseradish (Amtoru~h rusticuna) peroxidases (HRPs; EC 1.1 1.1.7), are probably the best characterized of these enzyme...

The present study explains computational methods to design thermostable horseradish peroxidase enzyme using the crystal structure available from Protein Data Bank (PDB ID: 6ATJ). Multiple mutations were introduced to the original enzyme and developed a model by using Modeler9.14. After designing the model functional effect was confirmed in terms of protein ligand binding by molecular docking us...

The oxidation of phenol catalyzed by human myeloperoxidase and horseradish peroxidase resulted in extensive binding of phenol-derived metabolites to boiled rat liver protein. This binding paralleled closely the removal of phenol from the incubations and was inhibited from 83 to 99% by the addition of the antioxidants, ascorbate and glutathione, suggesting that metabolism and binding were occurr...

The food antioxidants butylated hydroxyanisole (BHA) and butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT) are shown to be metabolized to covalent binding intermediates and various other metabolites by prostaglandin H synthase and horseradish peroxidase. BHA was extensively metabolized by horseradish peroxidase (80% conversion of parent BHA into metabolites) resulting in the formation of three dimeric products. O...
