Activating Compound

Activating Compound Comment Organism Structure
additional information the enzyme needs to be fully reduced before it gets activated for catalysis Albifimbria verrucaria

Application

Application Comment Organism
synthesis mediator-less, direct electro-catalytic reduction of oxygen to water is achieved on spectrographite electrodes modified by physical adsorption of bilirubin oxidases from Myrothecium verrucaria. Bilirubin oxidase (BOD) is the best catalyst for converting oxygen directly to water because of the very low overpotential necessary to catalyze the reaction Albifimbria verrucaria

Protein Variants

Protein Variants Comment Organism
additional information mediator-less, direct electro-catalytic reduction of oxygen to water is 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. Effects on the catalytic cycle by temperature, pH and the presence of halogens in the buffer, overview Albifimbria verrucaria

General Information

General Information Comment Organism
evolution the enzyme belongs to the multicopper oxidase (MCO) family. These enzymes have four copper atoms that are classified into three types according to their spectroscopic and magnetic properties: type I (T1), type II (T2) and type III (T3) Cu. The MCO family can be separated into two types by substrate specificity. The first group catalyzes the outer sphere oxidation of small organic substrates and include the plant and fungal laccases and ascorbate oxidase, CotA, bilirubin oxidase, and phenoxazinone synthase Albifimbria verrucaria
