_________________________________________________________________Introduction

• Type-3 active site copper enzyme

• Catalyses the oxidation of o-diphenols

• Found in plant tissues and crustaceans

• In 1998, Krebs and co-authors reported its crystal structure in 3 catalytic states:

• Native met (CuII-CuII) state• Reduced deoxy (CuI-CuI) state• Complex with inhibitor phenylthiourea

Catalytic Cycle

Page 22: Projecte tesi

_________________________________________________________________Conclusions

• Conclusions• A new mechanism for the catalytic cycle of the catechol oxidase

has been proposed, where:

• No external base is required since no protons leave or enter the active site during the catalytic cycle.

• There is an intermediate with a µ-η2:η2 bridging peroxide.

• The most critical step is the O-O cleavage, whose barrier (14.4 kcal/mol) is in reasonable agreement with the experimental rate (13 kcal/mol).

• In some steps there is a monodentate coordination of the substrate.

• The understanding of the catecholase activity of catechol oxidase can help to understand how tyrosinase works.
