Peroxidase-catalyzed oxidation of o-phenylene diamine (OPD) was competitively inhibited by trimethylhydroquinone (TMHQ), 4-tert-butylpyrocatechol (In5), and 4,6-di-tert-butyl-3-sulfanyl-1,2-dihydroxybenzene (In6). In6 was the most efficient inhibitor (Ki = 11 microM at 20 degrees C in 0.015 M phosphate-citrate buffer, pH 6.0). The effects of In5 and In6 were not preceded by periods of induction of OPD oxidation products (contrary to TMHQ). Peroxidase-catalyzed oxidation of tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) was non-competitively inhibited by In6 and 3-(2-hydroxyethylthio)-4,6-di-tert-butylpyrocatechol (In4), whereas o-aminophenol (OAP) acted as a mixed-type inhibitor. The effects of all three inhibitors were preceded by an induction period, during which TMB oxidation products were formed. Again, In6 was the most efficient inhibitor (Ki = 16 microM at 20 degrees C in 0.015 M phosphate-citrate buffer supplemented with 5% ethanol, pH 6.0). Judging by the characteristics of the inhibitors, taken in aggregate, it is advisable to use the pairs OPD-In5 and OPD-In6 in systems for testing the total antioxidant activity of biological fluids of humans.

Developing a multi-functional green energy device that propels sustainable energy development and concurrently purifies environmental pollutants offers an irresistibly compelling vision for a cleaner future. Herein, we reported a bias-free glucose/O bio-photoelectrochemical system (BPECS) for both energy conversion and phenolic pollutants degradation. Coupling a glucose dehydrogenase (GDH) modified self-assembled meso-tetrakis (4-carboxyphenyl)-porphyrin (SA-TCPP)-sensitized TiO biophotoanode for glucose oxidation and nitrogen/oxygen doped cobalt single-atom catalyst (CoNOC) cathode for two-electron oxygen reduction, both solar and biochemical energies were converted into electric power in BPECS with a maximum power density of 296.

Peroxidases are promising catalysts for oxidation reactions, yet their practical utility has been hindered by the fact that they require hydrogen peroxide (HO), which at high concentrations can cause deactivation of enzymes. Practical processes involving the use of peroxidases require the frequent addition of low concentrations of HO. generation of HO can be achieved using oxidase-type enzymes.

Article Synopsis
- Bacterial infections hinder wound healing, making photothermal therapy (PTT) a promising treatment option, though current wound dressings face challenges like biosafety and thermal stability due to photosensitizers.
- This study presents new hydrogels made of carboxymethyl chitosan (CMCS) and protocatechuic aldehyde (PA) that utilize enzymatic catalysis (horseradish peroxidase and hydrogen peroxide) to enhance photothermal responsiveness and biosafety.
- The CMCS-PA hydrogels exhibit superb antibacterial properties with near-infrared light, promote healing by reducing inflammation and encouraging tissue regeneration, and show potential as safer alternatives to traditional photothermal agents in wound care.

The B cell receptor (BCR) signals together with a multi-component co-receptor complex to initiate B cell activation in response to antigen binding. Here, we take advantage of peroxidase-catalyzed proximity labeling combined with quantitative mass spectrometry to track co-receptor signaling dynamics in Raji cells from 10 s to 2 h after BCR stimulation. This approach enables tracking of 2,814 proximity-labeled proteins and 1,394 phosphosites and provides an unbiased and quantitative molecular map of proteins recruited to the vicinity of CD19, the signaling subunit of the co-receptor complex.

Horseradish peroxidase (HRP)-mediated hydrogelation, caused by the cross-linking of phenolic groups in polymers in the presence of hydrogen peroxide (HO), is an effective route for bioink solidification in 3D bioprinting. Sugar beet pectin (SBP) naturally has cross-linkable phenols through the enzymatic reaction. Therefore, chemical modifications are not required, unlike the various polymers that have been used in the enzymatic cross-linking system.
