Catalytic and adsorption properties of papain and its derivatives
Lachmanová, Štěpánka ; Hudeček, Jiří (advisor) ; Karpenko, Vladimír (referee)
The aminoacid sequence of papain (EC 3.4.22.2) consists of 212 aminoacids. It has only one free sulfhydryl group, which is located in the active site of the protein. Some organometallic complexes could be bonded only to this free -SH group due to their structure. The artificial metalloproteins synthesised by this way may have different electrochemical properties. In this work, we have studied the electrochemical properties of papain and its derivatives. We compared the ability of papain and its three artificial derivatives to catalyse the hydrogen evolution by the chronopotenciometry. The work was completed by the study of the electrochemical properties of the organometallic complexes of ruthenium, which were used for the artificial metalloprotein preparation. The electrochemical properties of the compounds were never studied before. The process of the hydrogen evolution catalysed by the proteins is held in the adsorbed state of the catalyst. Due to this fact we have also studied the adsorption properties of papain on the substrates with different level of hydrofobicity. (In Czech)
Chronopotentiometry of Papain Modified by Ruthenium Complexes
Nováková Lachmanová, Štěpánka ; Pospíšil, Lubomír ; Talbi, B. ; Salmain, M. ; Hromadová, Magdaléna
Catalytic hydrogen evolution reaction is one of known effects observed during the electrochemical studies of proteins. Constant current chronopotentiometric stripping technique is suitable tool for the study of catalytic hydrogen evolution reaction due to the formation of peak H. This contribution compares the catalytic behaviour of nonmodified papain and its artificial derivatives prepared by the interaction of organometallic complexes of ruthenium with free sulfhydryl group of protein. The comparison of the chronopotentiometric behaviour of papain and its derivatives would help to better understand the catalytic hydrogen evolution reaction in these derivatives.
