Coniferyl alcohol oxidase ? a catechol oxidase?

Trees, 1995
The physico-chemical properties of coniferyl alcohol oxidase (CAO), a copper containing glycoprotein spatiotemporally associated with lignification in conifers, is reported here. By electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy, only type 3 copper was indicated in CAO. CAO oxidizes several laccase substrates; however, it is not a blue-copper protein and

Oxidation of Catechol by Tea-Oxidase

Nature, 1950
DURING the enzymic oxidation of catechol, approximately two atoms of oxygen are taken up for each molecule of catechol, whereas only one atom is required for oxidation to the o-quinone stage. Wagreich and Nelson1 consider this extra uptake to be accounted for by the interaction of the o-benz-quinone with water to form 1 : 2 : 4-trihydroxy-benzene ...

Tyrosinase and Catechol Oxidase

Nature, 1938
THE nature of tyrosinase has been under discussion for a very long time. Raper and his school1, Graubard and Nelson2, and Keilin and Mann3 believe it to be a distinct enzyme, different from catechol oxidase. Onslow and Robinson4, McCance5, and Richter6 believe it to be a catechol oxidase plus o-chinone plus dehydrogenase. Kubowitz7, whose work appeared

A Novel Catechol Oxidase Enzyme Electrode for the Specific Determination of Catechol

Bioscience, Biotechnology, and Biochemistry, 1998
An enzyme electrode for the specific determination of catechol was developed by using catechol oxidase (EC 1.10.3.1) from eggplant (Solanum melangena L.) in combination with a dissolved oxygen probe. Optimization studies of the prepared catechol oxidase enzyme electrode established a phosphate buffer 50 mM at pH 7.0 and 35°C to provide the optimum ...

Olive catechol oxidase ‐ changes during fruit development

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, 1977
AbstractChanges were recorded in the subcellular location of catechol oxidase. In the green olive the enzyme is tightly bound to the chloroplast whereas in the black fruit it is essentially soluble. During fruit development, enzyme activity per fruit declines while the o‐diphenolic content rises steadily.

Substrate Binding in Catechol Oxidase Activity:  Biomimetic Approach

Inorganic Chemistry, 2002
A series of dicopper(II) complexes have been investigated as model systems for the catechol oxidase active site enzyme, regarding the binding of catechol substrate in the first step of the catalytic cycle. The [Cu(2)(L(R))(mu-OH)](ClO(4))(2) and [Cu(2)(L(R))(H(2)O)(2)](ClO(4))(3) complexes are based on the L(R) ligands (2,6-bis[(bis(2-pyridylmethyl ...

New functional models for catechol oxidases

Inorganica Chimica Acta, 2000
The new dinuclear copper(II) complexes [Cu2(L1)(m-OAc)](ClO4)2·CH3CN (1), [Cu2(L2)(CH3CN)2](ClO4)4·C2H5OH (2), [Cu2(L3)2(CH3CN)2](PF6)2 (3) and [Cu2(L4)2](PF6)2·2CH2Cl2 (4) were prepared with the ligands N,N,N%,N%-tetrakis((N-2-hydroxyethyl)-2-benzimidazolylmethyl)-2-hydroxy-1,3-diaminopropane HL1, N,N,N%,N%-tetrakis (2-methylimidazolyl)-2-hydroxy-1,3 ...
