Use of Cl and C isotopic fractionation to identify degradation and sources of polychlorinated phenols: mechanistic study and field application.

Environ. Sci. Technol. 47(2) , 790-7, (2013)

The widespread use of chlorinated phenols (CPs) as a wood preservative has led to numerous contaminated sawmill sites. However, it remains challenging to assess the extent of in situ degradation of CPs. We evaluated the use of compound-specific chlorine and c...

Biocatalytic oxidation by chloroperoxidase from Caldariomyces fumago in polymersome nanoreactors.

Org. Biomol. Chem. 7 , 4604-4610, (2009)

The encapsulation of chloroperoxidase from Caldariomyces fumago (CPO) in block copolymer polymersomes is reported. Fluorescence and electron microscopy show that when the encapsulating conditions favour self-assembly of the block copolymer, the enzyme is inco...

Catalytic performance and thermostability of chloroperoxidase in reverse micelle: achievement of a catalytically favorable enzyme conformation.

J. Ind. Microbiol. Biotechnol. 38(6) , 717-24, (2011)

The catalytic performance of chloroperoxidase (CPO) in peroxidation of 2, 2'-azinobis-(-3 ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfononic acid) diammonium salt (ABTS) and oxidation of indole in a reverse micelle composed of surfactant-water-isooctane-pentanol was investiga...

Enzymatic modification of chitosan with quercetin and its application as antioxidant edible films.

Prikl. Biokhim. Mikrobiol. 48(2) , 175-82, (2012)

Quercetin, rutin, naringin, hesperidin and chrysin were tested as substrates for chloroperoxidase to produce reactive quinones to graft onto chitosan. Quercetin and rutin quinones were successfully chemically attached to low molecular weight chitosan. The que...

Detoxification of sulfur mustard by enzyme-catalyzed oxidation using chloroperoxidase.

Enzyme Microb. Technol. 53(5) , 295-301, (2013)

One of the most interesting methods for the detoxification of sulfur mustard is enzyme-catalyzed oxidation. This study examined the oxidative destruction of a sulfur mustard by the enzyme chloroperoxidase (EC 1.11.1.10). Chloroperoxidase (CPO) belongs to a gr...

Activity and stability of chloroperoxidase in the presence of small quantities of polysaccharides: a catalytically favorable conformation was induced.

Appl. Biochem. Biotechnol. 165(7-8) , 1691-707, (2011)

Chloroperoxidase (CPO) is thought to be the most versatile heme-containing enzyme with enormous applications in organic synthesis, biotransformation, pharmaceutical production, and detoxification of environmental pollutants. Any improvement in the stability o...

Redox active molecules cytochrome c and vitamin C enhance heme-enzyme peroxidations by serving as non-specific agents for redox relay.

Biochem. Biophys. Res. Commun. 419(2) , 211-4, (2012)

We report that incorporation of very low concentrations of redox protein cytochrome c and redox active small molecule vitamin C impacted the outcome of one-electron oxidations mediated by structurally distinct plant/fungal heme peroxidases. Evidence suggests ...

Over-expression of chloroperoxidase in Caldariomyces fumago.

Biotechnol. Lett. 33(11) , 2225-31, (2011)

The filamentous fungus Caldariomyces fumago secretes a chloroperoxidase (CPO). To increase its production, we integrated a CPO-expression cassette into the non-transcribed spacer regions of the rDNA in C. fumago. One strain was obtained that had twice the CPO...

Biocatalysed halogenation of nucleobase analogues.

Biotechnol. Lett. 33(10) , 1999-2003, (2011)

The synthesis of halogenated nucleosides and nucleobases is of interest due to their chemical and pharmacological applications. Herein, the enzymatic halogenation of nucleobases and analogues catalysed by microorganisms and by chloroperoxidase from Caldariomy...

A stereoselective vanadium-dependent chloroperoxidase in bacterial antibiotic biosynthesis.

J. Am. Chem. Soc. 133(12) , 4268-70, (2011)

Halogenases catalyze reactions that introduce halogen atoms into electron-rich organic molecules. Vanadium-dependent haloperoxidases are generally considered to be promiscuous halogenating enzymes that have thus far been derived exclusively from eukaryotes, w...
