Quantifying Electronic Effects in QM and QM/MM Biomolecular Modeling with the Fukui Function

Multi-scale quantum-mechanical/molecular-mechanical(QM/MM) and large-scale QM simulation provide valuable insight into enzyme mechanism and structure-property relationships. Analysis of the electron density afforded through these methods can enhance our understanding of how the enzyme environment modulates reactivity at the enzyme active site. From this perspective, tools from conceptual density functional theory to interrogate electron densities can provide added insight into enzyme function. We recently introduced the highly parallelizable Fukui shift analysis(FSA) method, which identifies how frontier states of an active site are altered by the presence of an additional QM residue to identify when QM treatment of a residue is essential as a result of quantum-mechanically affecting the behavior of the active site. We now demonstrate and analyze distance and residue dependence of Fukui function shifts in pairs of residues representing different non-covalent interactions. We also show how the interpretation of the Fukui function as a measure of relative nucleophilicity provides insight into enzymes that carry out S_N2 methyl transfer. The FSA method represents a promising approach for the systematic, unbiased determination of quantum mechanical effects in enzymes and for other complex systems that necessitate multi-scale modeling.     

Preparation of (1R,4S)-4-hydroxycyclopent-2-en-1-yl acetate via Novozym-435® catalyzed desymmetrization of cis-3,5-Diacetoxy-1-cyclopentene

Photooxidation of cyclopentadiene has been carried out in methanol using white light of LED lamp, rose bengal as photo initiator, and compressed air at 0?°C. Under conditions of [thiourea] ? [cyclopentadiene], the consumption of thiourea follows a pseudo-first-order reaction kinetics with half life of 75?±?10?min; corr. coeff. r?=?0.989. Slow addition of the monomer and maintaining excess thiourea concentration in reaction mass improves the yield. cis-3,5-Dihydroxy-1-cyclopentene is acetylated without isolation to obtain cis-3,5-Diacetoxy-1-cyclopentene of high purity (>99%) with overall isolated yield of 30%. Desymmetrization of the diacetate to (1R,4S)-4-hydroxycyclopent-2-en-1-yl acetate has been carried out via enzymatic transesterification with methanol in methyl tert-butyl ether (MTBE) at 5?°C using Novozym-435^®. The enantiomerically pure monoacetate (e.e. >99%) was obtained in 95% isolated yield. The recovered enzyme was reused for more than 10 times without loss in yield and selectivity. The entire protocol does not require purification of final product by chromatography.

A combined redox-competition and negative-feedback SECM study of self-healing anticorrosive coatings

In this paper, the long-term anticorrosive efficiency of a damaged self-healing coating is studied for the first time using scanning electrochemical microscopy (SECM). In the study an epoxy-coating with embedded-capsules containing a silyl-ester is employed. The properties of the silyl-ester as a healing-agent for the protection of AA2024-T3 were evaluated by complementary SECM experiments operating in negative-feedback and redox-competition modes. The experimental approach here presented allowed for monitoring the early-stages of corrosion activity and subsequent healing mechanisms offered by the release of silyl-ester into a relatively large coating defect. This result was observed by detecting the transition of the oxygen reduction response from a redox-competition mode to a negative-feedback behavior. These measurements demonstrated that the silyl-ester is released efficiently after capsules break upon coating damage, covering relatively large areas and gradually healing the damaged-site hindering the corrosion processes and providing an effective protection for at least one month of immersion in chloride solution.     

Development of a Capillary Electrophoresis-Based Enzyme Immunoassay with Electrochemical Detection for the Determination of Okadaic Acid and Dinophysistoxin2 in Shellfish Samples

A capillary electrophoresis-based enzyme immunoassay (CE-EIA) with electrochemical (EC) detection system was developed for the determination of two diarrheic shellfish poisoning (DSP) toxins okadaic acid (OA) and dinophysistoxin2 (DTX2). In this method, after the competitive immunoreaction in liquid phase, the horseradish peroxidase (HRP)-labeled antigen (Ag*) and the bound enzyme-labeled complex (Ag*-Ab) were separated and then the system of HRP catalyzing H₂O₂/o-aminophenol (OAP) reaction was adopted. The limit of detection (S/N = 3) was determined to be 0.05 and 0.07 ng/mL for OA and DTX2, respectively. The total analysis time was less than 40 min. The developed CE-EIA with EC detection system was capable of quantitatively detecting OA and DTX2 contents in the tested contaminated samples, and the results were compared with the same samples analyzed through enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Consistent results between CE-EIA with EC detection and ELISA were found in most of the tested samples. The proposed system appeared to be more sensitive and faster than ELISA for determination of OA and DTX2 in shellfish meat extracts. Real shellfish samples were validated in recovery test, and the recoveries tested by the proposed method were 91.7–108.3% and 95.2–112.5% for OA and DTX2, respectively. The CE-EIA with EC detection provides a valid and sensitive analytical approach, not previously available, for the determination of OA and DTX2 in shellfish samples.     

Rapid measurement of fish freshness indices by an amperometric flow-injection system with a 16-way switching valve and immobilized enzyme reactors

A novel flow-injection system is proposed for the rapid measurement of the fish freshness indices K₁ and K₂: K₁=[([HxR+[Hx])×100/([IMP]+[HxR]+[Hx])] and K₂=[[Hx]×100/([HxR]+[Hx])], where [IMP], [HxR] and [Hx] are inosine-5′-monophosphate, inosine and hypoxanthine concentrations, respectively. For the estimation of index K₁, 5′-nucleotidase immobilized reactor and nucleoside phosphorylase (NP)/xanthine oxidase (XO) coimmobilized reactor were incorporated in series in the flow-injection line made up by a 16-way switching valve with two sample loops. For the estimation of index K₂, NP and XO immobilized reactors were also incorporated in the similar flow-line. Two sample portions passed through the flow-line with different residence times so that two peaks were obtained. The first and second peaks obtained in the K₁-determining system corresponded to the total of HxR and Hx and the total of Hx, HxR and IMP, respectively. Similarly, the first and second peaks obtained in the K₂-determining system corresponded to Hx and the total of Hx and HxR, respectively. Therefore, the indices K₁ and K₂ can be estimated by

where i₁ and i₂ present the peak current of the first and second peaks, respectively, and f the ratio of the peak currents of the first and second peaks for a Hx standard solution. A sea bream was selected as a model fish and it was stored at 4 °C after death. A good correlation was found between the index K₁ and the storage time over a period of 400 h, with a correlation coefficient of 0.992, but no correlation between the index K₂ and the storage time. The measurements could be performed at a rate of 22 samples per hour with satisfactory precision (0.6–1.2% R.S.D.), without calibration for each species, accurate weighing of fish meat and any interferences in fish meat.
