Abstract
Versatile peroxidase shares with manganese peroxidase and lignin peroxidase the ability to oxidize Mn(2+) and high redox potential aromatic compounds, respectively. Moreover, it is also able to oxidize phenols (and low redox potential dyes) at two catalytic sites, as shown by biphasic kinetics. A high efficiency site (with 2,6-dimethoxyphenol and p-hydroquinone catalytic efficiencies of ∼70 and ∼700 s(-1) mM(-1), respectively) was localized at the same exposed Trp-164 responsible for high redox potential substrate oxidation (as shown by activity loss in the W164S variant). The second site, characterized by low catalytic efficiency (∼3 and ∼50 s(-1) mM(-1) for 2,6-dimethoxyphenol and p-hydroquinone, respectively) was localized at the main heme access channel. Steady-state and transient-state kinetics for oxidation of phenols and dyes at the latter site were improved when side chains of residues forming the heme channel edge were removed in single and multiple variants. Among them, the E140G/K176G, E140G/P141G/K176G, and E140G/W164S/K176G variants attained catalytic efficiencies for oxidation of 2,2'-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonate) at the heme channel similar to those of the exposed tryptophan site. The heme channel enlargement shown by x-ray diffraction of the E140G, P141G, K176G, and E140G/K176G variants would allow a better substrate accommodation near the heme, as revealed by the up to 26-fold lower K(m) values (compared with native VP). The resulting interactions were shown by the x-ray structure of the E140G-guaiacol complex, which includes two H-bonds of the substrate with Arg-43 and Pro-139 in the distal heme pocket (at the end of the heme channel) and several hydrophobic interactions with other residues and the heme cofactor.

Abstract
Reactive dyes are widely employed in textile industries and their removal from wastewaters is a relevant environmental problem. In addition to chemical and physical methods, several bioremediation approaches, involving intact micro-organisms or isolated enzymes, have been proposed to decolorize dye solutions. In this paper, we report the complete and fast decolourization of a Cu(II)-phthalocyanine based reactive dye (Remazol Turquoise Blue G 133) by means of the soybean peroxidase/H(2)O(2) system. The oxidative degradation of the dye in aqueous solution at 25°C was studied as function of pH, revealing a quantitative decolourization yield at acidic pH values with a maximum of activity at pH 3.3. The reaction products were identified and characterized by HPLC-diode array detector (DAD)-mass spectrometry (MS), ionic chromatography and EPR techniques. This analysis showed that the enzyme catalyses the breaking of the phthalocyanine ring producing sulfophthalimide as the main degradation product, and the release of stoichiometric amount of ammonium and Cu(II) ions.

Abstract
The study of direct electron transfer between enzymes and electrodes is frequently hampered by the small fraction of adsorbed proteins that remains electrochemically active. Here, we outline a strategy to overcome this limitation, which is based on a hierarchical analysis of steady-state electrocatalytic currents and the adoption of the "binary activity" hypothesis. The procedure is illustrated by studying the electrocatalytic response of horseradish peroxidase (HRP) adsorbed on graphite electrodes as a function of substrate (hydrogen peroxide) concentration, electrode potential, and solution pH. Individual contributions of the rates of substrate/enzyme reaction and of the electrode/enzyme electron exchange to the observed catalytic currents were disentangled by taking advantage of their distinct dependence on substrate concentration and electrode potential. In the absence of nonturnover currents, adoption of the "binary activity" hypothesis provided values of the standard electron-transfer rate constant for reduction of HRP Compound II that are similar to those reported previously for reduction of cytochrome c peroxidase Compound II. The variation of the catalytic currents with applied potential was analyzed in terms of the non-adiabatic Marcus-DOS electron transfer theory. The availability of a broad potential window, where catalytic currents could be recorded, facilitates an accurate determination of both the reorganization energy and the maximum electron-transfer rate for HRP Compound II reduction. The variation of these two kinetic parameters with solution pH provides some indication of the nature and location of the acid/base groups that control the electronic exchange between enzyme and electrode.

Abstract
Dehaloperoxidase (DHP) from the terebellid polychaete, Amphitrite ornata, is the first hemoglobin that has peroxidase activity as part of its native function. The substrate 2,4,6-tribromophenol (TBP) is oxidatively debrominated by DHP to form 2,6-dibromoquinone (DBQ) in a two-electron process. There is a well-defined internal binding site for TBP above the heme, a feature not observed in other hemoglobins or peroxidases. A study of the pH dependence of the activity of DHP reveals a substantial difference in mechanism. From direct observation of the Soret band of the heme it is shown that the pKa for heme activation in protein DHP is 6.5. Below this pH the heme absorbance decreases in the presence of H2O2 with or without addition of substrate. The low pH data are consistent with significant heme degradation. Above pH 6.5 addition of H2O2 causes the heme to shift rapidly to a compound II spectrum and then slowly to an unidentified intermediate with an absorbance of 410 nm. However, the pKa of the substrate TBP is 6.8 and the greatest enzyme activity is observed above the pKa of TBP under conditions where the substrate is a phenolate anion (TPBO-). Although the mechanisms may differ, the data show that both neutral TBP and anionic TPBO- are converted to the quinone product. The mechanistic implications of the pH dependence are discussed by comparison other known peroxidases, which oxidize substrates at the heme edge.

Abstract
Phenol is an industrial pollutant and its removal from industrial wastewaters is of great importance. In order to design optimised phenol removal procedures by using horseradish peroxidase-based systems, there are some points that have to be dealt with. One of the most important issues is the need for reliable kinetics as this is one of the difficulties found during process scale-up. Although simplified kinetics can be used for limited ranges of operating conditions, they are not usually reliable for the description of varying process conditions. The present work describes the implementation of a kinetic model, based on a mechanism, for the co-oxidation of phenol and 4-aminoantipyrine (Am-NH2), which is used as a chromogen agent, with hydrogen peroxide as the oxidant. The model covers not only the variation of the concentrations of all the species involved, but also the effect of temperature in the reaction. The estimation of kinetic rate constants and activation energies for the various steps in the mechanism is performed with a single optimisation procedure, and all the experimental results are described using a unique set of parameters, which, thus, is valid over an extended range of operating conditions. The mechanism allowed the determination of a reliable kinetic model which is appropriate for the range of experimental conditions used. The computational model was also tested with an independent set of experiments with different conditions from the ones for which the parameters were estimated.

Abstract
Enzymatic oxidation of dipyridamole (DIP) by horseradish peroxidase-hydrogen peroxide system (HRP-H2O2) in aqueous and micellar solutions was carried out. The reaction was monitored by optical absorption and fluorescence techniques. In aqueous solution at pH 7.0 and pH 9.0, the disappearance of the characteristic bands of DIP centered at 400 nm and 280 nm was observed. A new strong band at 260 nm is observed for the oxidation product(s) with shoulders at 322 nm and 390 nm. A non-fluorescent product is formed upon oxidation. In cationic cethyl trimethyl-1-ammonium chloride (CTAC) and zwitterionic 3-(N-hexadecyl-N,N-dimethylammonium) propane sulfonate (HPS) micellar solutions the same results are observed: three, well-defined, isosbestic points in the optical spectra suggest the transformation between two species. In anionic micellar sodium dodecylsulfate solution (SDS), the appearance of a new band centered around 506 nm was observed, associated to a solution color change from the usual yellow to deep blue/violet, characteristic of a radical species associated to the one-electron oxidation of DIP to its cation radical (DIP*+), observed previously in electrochemical oxidation. Experiments of radical decay kinetics monitoring the absorbance change at 506 nm were performed and analyzed in the frame of a kinetic model taking into account the species both in homogeneous and micellar media. The reaction medium is composed of bulk solution, SDS micelle/solution interface and enzyme catalytic site(s). The variation of DIP*+ concentration was analyzed assuming: (1) synthesis of DIP*+ by HRP through one-electron oxidation; (2) decomposition of DIP*+ by further one-electron oxidation; (3) direct two-electron oxidation of DIP by HRP; (4) bimolecular DIP*+ disproportionation. The main results of the analysis are as follows: (1) kinetic data can be divided in two phases, an HRP active phase and another phase which proceeds in the absence of enzyme activity due to consumption of all H2O2; (2) the reactions of DIP*+ formation, DIP*+ decomposition and DIP two-electron oxidation are HRP concentration dependent; (3) since DIP*+ formation constant seems to be overestimated, it is proposed that two-electron oxidation is another source of DIP*+, through the comproportionation reaction. Evidences for this reaction were also observed previously in electrochemical experiments; and (4) the kinetic analysis provides evidences that the bimolecular reaction of DIP*+ takes place mainly in the absence of active HRP and in this phase the combination of, at least, two second-order kinetic processes is needed to model the experimental data. Our data suggest that HRP oxidizes DIP in general by a two-electron process or that the cation radical is very unstable so that the one-electron process is only detected in the presence of anionic surfactant, which stabilizes significantly the DIP*+ intermediate.

Abstract
We report here on the stereospecificity observed in the action of horseradish peroxidase (HRPC) on monophenol and diphenol substrates. Several enantiomers of monophenols and o-diphenols were assayed: L-tyrosinol, D-tyrosinol, L-tyrosine, DL-tyrosine, D-tyrosine, L-dopa, DL-dopa, D-dopa, L-alpha-methyldopa, DL-alpha-methyldopa, DL-adrenaline, D-adrenaline, L-isoproterenol, DL-isoproterenol and D-isoproterenol. The electronic density at the carbon atoms in the C-1 and C-2 positions of the benzene ring were determined by NMR assays (delta1 and delta2). This value is related to the nucleophilic power of the oxygen atom of the hydroxyl groups and to its oxidation-reduction capacity. The spatial orientation of the ring substituents resulted in lower Km values for L- than for D-isomers. The kcat values for substrates capable of saturating the enzyme were lower for D- than for L-isomers, although both have the same delta1 and delta2 NMR values for carbons C-1 and C-2, and therefore the same oxidation-reduction potential. In the case of substrates that cannot saturate the enzyme, the values of the binding constant for compound II (an intermediate in the catalytic cycle) followed the order: L-isomer>DL-isomer>D-isomer. Therefore, horseradish peroxidase showed stereospecificity in its affinity toward its substrates (K m) and in their transformation reaction rates (k cat).

Abstract
The mammalian peroxidases, including myeloperoxidase and lactoperoxidase, bind their prosthetic heme covalently through ester bonds to two of the heme methyl groups. These bonds are autocatalytically formed. No other peroxidase is known to form such bonds. To determine whether features other than an appropriately placed carboxylic acid residue are important for covalent heme binding, we have introduced aspartate and/or glutamic acid residues into horseradish peroxidase, a plant enzyme that exhibits essentially no sequence identity with the mammalian peroxidases. Based on superposition of the horseradish peroxidase and myeloperoxidase structures, the mutated residues were Leu(37), Phe(41), Gly(69), and Ser(73). The F41E mutant was isolated with no covalently bound heme, but the heme was completely covalently bound upon incubation with H(2)O(2). As predicted, the modified heme released from the protein was 3-hydroxymethylheme. The S73E mutant did not covalently bind its heme but oxidized it to the 8-hydroxymethyl derivative. The hydroxyl group in this modified heme derived from the medium. The other mutations gave unstable proteins. The rate of compound I formation for the F41E mutant was 100 times faster after covalent bond formation, but the reduction of compound I to compound II was similar with and without the covalent bond. The results clearly establish that an appropriately situated carboxylic acid group is sufficient for covalent heme attachment, strengthen the proposed mechanism, and suggest that covalent heme attachment in the mammalian peroxidases relates to peroxidase biology or stability rather than to intrinsic catalytic properties.

Abstract
Peroxidases perform the nitration of tyrosine and tyrosyl residues in proteins, in the presence of nitrite and hydrogen peroxide. The nitrating species is still unknown but it is usually assumed to be nitrogen dioxide. In the present investigation, the nitration of phenolic compounds derived from tyrosine by lactoperoxidase and horseradish peroxidase was studied, with the aim of elucidating the mechanism of the reaction. The results indicate that nitrogen dioxide cannot be the only nitrating species and suggest the presence of two simultaneously operative pathways, one proceeding through enzyme-generated nitrogen dioxide and another through a more reactive species, assumed to be complexed peroxynitrite, which is generated by reaction of hydrogen peroxide with the enzyme-nitrite complex. The importance of the two pathways depends on peroxide and nitrite concentrations. With lactoperoxidase, nitration through the highly reactive intermediate is preferred except at very low nitrite concentration, while with horseradish peroxidase, the nitrogen dioxide driven mechanism is preferred except at very high nitrite concentration. The preferred mechanism for the two enzymes is that operative in the physiological nitrite concentration range.

Abstract
The hydrogen peroxide-oxidation of 2,4-dichlorophenol catalyzed by horseradish peroxidase has been studied by means of UV-visible spectroscopy and mass spectrometry in order to clarify the reaction mechanism. The dimerization of 2,4-dichlorophenol to 2,4-dichloro-6-(2,4-dichlorophenoxy)-phenol and its subsequent oxidation to 2-chloro-6-(2,4-dichlorophenoxy)-1,4-benzoquinone together with chloride release were observed. The reaction rate was found to be pH-dependent and to be influenced by the pK(a) value of 2,4-dichlorophenol. The dissociation constants of the 2,4-dichlorophenol/horseradish peroxidase (HRP) adduct at pH 5.5 and 8.5 were also determined: their values indicate the unusual stability of the adduct at pH 5.5 with respect to several adducts of HRP with substituted phenols.

Evidence for the dimerization of 2,6-DCP to 3,3',5,5'-tetrachloro-4,4'-dihydroxybiphenyl and the subsequent fast oxidation of this product to the corresponding 3,3',5,5'-tetrachlorodiphenoquinone have been collected. The reaction rate was found to decrease markedly as soon as the pH was raised, with a clear inflection point at pH congruent with 6.6-6.9; it also resulted independent from H2O2 concentration. Since the pK(a) for 2,6-DCP is 6.80, the reaction rate might be influenced by the protonation state of the substrate.

Abstract
Transient kinetic analysis of biphasic, single turnover data for the reaction of 2,2'-azino-bis[3-ethylbenzthiazoline-6-sulfonic acid] (ABTS) with horseradish peroxidase (HRPC) compound II demonstrated preequilibrium binding of ABTS (k(+5) = 7.82 x 10(4) M(-)(1) s(-)(1)) prior to rate-limiting electron transfer (k(+6) = 42.1 s(-)(1)). These data were obtained using a stopped-flow method, which included ascorbate in the reaction medium to maintain a low steady-state concentration of ABTS (pseudo-first-order conditions) and to minimize absorbance changes in the Soret region due to the accumulation of ABTS cation radicals. A steady-state kinetic analysis of the reaction confirmed that the reduction of HRPC compound II by this substrate is rate-limiting in the complete peroxidase cycle. The reaction of HRPC with o-diphenols has been investigated using a chronometric method that also included ascorbate in the assay medium to minimize the effects of nonenzymic reactions involving phenol-derived radical products. This enabled the initial rates of o-diphenol oxidation at different hydrogen peroxide and o-diphenol concentrations to be determined from the lag period induced by the presence of ascorbate. The kinetic analysis resolved the reaction of HRPC compound II with o-diphenols into two steps, initial formation of an enzyme-substrate complex followed by electron transfer from the substrate to the heme. With o-diphenols that are rapidly oxidized, the heterolytic cleavage of the O-O bond of the heme-bound hydrogen peroxide (k(+2) = 2.17 x 10(3) s(-)(1)) is rate-limiting. The size and hydrophobicity of the o-diphenol substrates are correlated with their rate of binding to HRPC, while the electron density at the C-4 hydroxyl group predominantly influences the rate of electron transfer to the heme.

Abstract
Steady-state and single-turnover kinetics for the oxidation of the N-substituted phenothiazines (PTs) and phenoxazines (POs) catalyzed by fungal Coprinus cinereus peroxidase and Polyporus pinsitus laccase were investigated at pH 4-10. In the case of peroxidase, an apparent bimolecular rate constant (expressed as k(cat)/K(m)) varied from 1 x10(7)M(-1)s(-1) to 2.6 x 108 M(-1)s(-1) at pH 7.0. The constants for PO oxidation were higher in comparison to PT. pH dependence revealed two or three ionizable groups with pKa values of 4.9-5.7 and 7.7-9.7 that significantly affected the activity of peroxidase. Single-turnover experiments showed that the limiting step of PT oxidation was reduction of compound II and second-order rate constants were obtained which were consistent with the constants at steady-state conditions. Laccase-catalyzed PT and PO oxidation rates were lower; apparent bimolecular rate constants varied from 1.8x 10(5) M(-1) s(-1) to 2.0 x 10(7) M(-1) s(-1) at pH 5.3. PO constants were higher in comparison to PT, as was the case with peroxidase. The dependence of the apparent bimolecular constants of compound II or copper type 1 reduction, in the case of peroxidase or laccase, respectively, was analyzed in the framework of the Marcus outer-sphere electron-transfer theory. Peroxidase-catalyzed reactions with PT, as well as PO, fitted the same hyperbolic dependence with a maximal oxidation rate of 1.6 x 10(8)M(-1)s(-1) and a reorganization energy of 0.30 eV. The respective parameters for laccase were 5.0 x 10(7) M(-1) s(-1) and 0.29 eV.

Abstract
For the first time saturating overall k(cat) values for horseradish peroxidase (HRP) catalysed conversion of phenols and anilines are described. These k(cat) values correlate quantitatively with calculated ionisation potentials of the substrates. The correlations for the phenols are shifted to higher k(cat) values at similar ionisation potentials as compared to those for anilines. (1)H-NMR T(1) relaxation studies, using 3-methylphenol and 3-methylaniline as the model substrates, revealed smaller average distances of the phenol than of the aniline protons to the paramagnetic Fe(3+) centre in HRP. This observation, together with a possibly higher extent of deprotonation of the phenols than of the anilines upon binding to the active site of HRP, may contribute to the relatively higher HRP catalysed conversion rates of phenols than of anilines.
