Redox potentials of the blue copper sites of bilirubin oxidases

Christenson, Andreas LU ; Shleev, Sergey LU ; Mano, Nicolas ; Heller, Adam and Gorton, Lo LU (2006) In Biochimica et Biophysica Acta - Bioenergetics 1757(12). p.1634-1641
Abstract
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 and BODs. The redox potentials of the T2 sites of both BODs were near 390 mV vs. NHE, consistent with previous finding for laccase and suggesting that the redox potentials of the T2 copper sites of most blue multicopper oxidases are similar, about 400 mV (c) 2006 Elsevier B.V.
