Klappentext zu „Biocatalysis Based on Heme Peroxidases “
The last systematic description of heme peroxidases was published in 1999 by Brian Dunford, from the University of Alberta in Canada. The book Heme per- idases covers discussion on three-dimensional structure, reaction mechanism, kinetics, and spectral properties of representative enzymes from bacterial, plant, fungal, and animal origin. Since 1999, vast information on basic but also applied aspects of heme peroxidases has been generated. We believe fusion of these two aspects will bene?t research of those dedicated to development of biocatalytic process. The aim of this book is to present recent advances on basic aspects such as evolution, structure-function relation, and catalytic mechanism, as well as applied aspects, such as bioreactor and protein engineering, in order to provide the tools for rational design of enhanced biocatalysts and biocatalytic processes. The book does not include an exhaustive listing of references but rather a selected collection to enrich discussion and to allow envisioning future directions for research. This book is organized in three parts. In Part I, current knowledge of structure and mechanism of peroxidases is covered. From the molecular phylogeny, going through the in?uence of structural factors over oxidative ability to the molecular mechanism of catalysis, the authors intend to provide an understanding of per- idases at the molecular level. The understanding of the fundamental behavior of peroxidases will allow further adequation, design, and/or optimization of pero- dase-based catalysis to a particular process. In Part II, research on potential applications of peroxidases in several ?elds is presented and discussed.
This monograph will cover the applications of peroxidase-based biocatalysis in the biotechnology industry. Moreover, a considerable amount of new data regarding the phylogeny, reaction mechanisms, thermodynamic characterization and structural features of fungal and plant peroxidases has been generated in the past 10 years, since the last specialized book on peroxidases was published. The book covers aspects of the biocatalytic performance of peroxidases, their industrial applications, the different methods to improve their functionality, their behavior in catalytic reactors, and the limitations of their application in biotechnological processes. Also included is an appendix in which a vast amount of biological, physical and chemical properties of peroxidases is gathered, with both data of the basal state of the enzymes as well as data of the activated catalytic intermediates, known as Compound I and Compound II.
