Abstract (AI)
Multicopper oxidases are a large family of blue copper proteins which contain from one to six copper atoms per molecule. Their catalytic centre consists of three domains which involve type-1 Cu, type-2 Cu and a pair of type-3 Cu's. They include laccases, ferroxidases, ascorbate oxidase, bilirubin oxidase, laccase like multicopper oxidases. MCOs are capable of one electron oxidizing of aromatic as well as non-aromatic compounds with a concomitant four-electron reduction of molecular oxygen to water. These properties make them a valuable tool in various industries (food, textile, pharmaceutical) medicine or environment protection.
Key Findings
1
MCOs catalyze one-electron oxidation of aromatic and non-aromatic compounds coupled to four-electron reduction of molecular oxygen to water.
2
Multicopper oxidases are blue copper proteins containing one to six copper atoms per molecule.
3
The family includes laccases, ferroxidases, ascorbate oxidase, bilirubin oxidase, and laccase-like multicopper oxidases.
4
Their catalytic center comprises type-1, type-2, and a pair of type-3 copper sites distributed across three domains.
5
These catalytic properties support applications in the food, textile, and pharmaceutical industries, medicine, and environmental protection.
