Several types of PHEMA membranes were prepared via photopolymerization. In some applications, glucose oxidase (GOD) was entrapped in the bulk of the membrane or between layers. In others it was covalently bonded on the membranes. The effect of chemical composition and various initiators on the entrapped GOD were determined. In the entrapment in the bulk it was found that as the monomer concentration in the polymerization medium increased, the GOD activity decreased. Among the initiators used, the highest enzyme activity was obtained with AIBN (71 % ). Efficiency of immobilized enzyme activity was found to be 98.5 %, 93.7 % for entrapment, (in the bulk and between layers) and 17.4 % for covalent bonding. A significant effect of the method used was observed on the stability of the enzyme upon use or storage. Although dependent on the operation mode (continuous or repeated use) and substrate concentration as well as on the entrapment method, activity retention to a level of 90% after 6 h continuous operation was possible. The water contents of PHEMA membranes increased with ionic strength and decreased with the ionic radii of the ions in preparation medium. The highest permeability (36.1OxlO-8cm2.s-1) was obtained with the membrane containing GOD entrapped in the bulk.

An alternative supporting electrolyte for enzyme immobilization in conducting polymers Kiralp, Senem; Balik, Balam; KARATAŞ, SEVİM; Toppare, Levent Kamil; Gungorb, Atilla (Elsevier BV, 2008-03-01) In this study an alternative supporting electrolyte was used in enzyme immobilization. Invertase was studied to observe the effect of the supporting electrolyte. Sulfonated poly(arylene ether sulfone) was used as the supporting electrolyte during the electrolysis of pyrrole. The results show that the polymeric supporting electrolyte can be used instead of sodium dodecyl sulfate.
Immobilization of glucose oxidase in conducting graft copolymers and determination of glucose amount in orange juices with enzyme electrodes Yildiz, HB; Kiralp, S; Toppare, Levent Kamil; Yagci, Y (Elsevier BV, 2005-12-15) Glucose oxidase was immobilized in conducting copolymers of three different types of poly(methyl methacrylate-co-thienyl methacrylate). Immobilization of enzyme was carried out by the entrapment in conducting polymers during electrochemical polymerization of pyrrole on the copolymer electrodes. Maximum reaction rate, Michaelis-Menten constants, temperature, pH and operational stabilities were determined for immobilized enzyme. The amount of glucose in orange juices of Turkey was investigated by using enzyme...
Structural Insights into Alternate Aggregated Prion Protein Forms POLANO, maurizio; Bek, Alpan; BENETTİ, federico; lazzarino, marco; LEGNAME, giuseppe (Elsevier BV, 2009-11-13) The conversion of the cellular form of the prion protein (PrPC) to an abnormal, alternatively folded isoform (PrPSc) is the central event in prion diseases or transmissible spongiform encephalopathies. Recent studies have demonstrated de novo generation of murine prions from recombinant prion protein (recPrP) after inoculation into transgenic and wild-type mice. These so-called synthetic prions lead to novel prion diseases with unique neuropathological and biochemical features. Moreover, the use of recPrP i...
Proton relay network in P450cam formed upon docking of putidaredoxin Ugur, Ilke; Chandrasekhar, Prasanna (Wiley, 2020-04-01) Cytochromes P450 are versatile heme-based enzymes responsible for vital life processes. Of these, P450cam (substrate camphor) has been most studied. Despite this, precise mechanisms of the key OO cleavage step remain partly elusive to date; effects observed in various enzyme mutants remain partly unexplained. We have carried out extended (to 1000 ns) MM-MD and follow-on quantum mechanics/molecular mechanics computations, both on the well-studied FeOO state and on Cpd(0) (compound 0). Our simulations include...
Various applications of immobilized glucose oxidase and polyphenol oxidase in a conducting polymer matrix Cil, M.; Boyukbayram, A. E.; Kiralp, S.; Toppare, Levent Kamil; Yagci, Y. (Elsevier BV, 2007-06-01) In this study, glucose oxidase and polyphenol oxidase were immobilized in conducting polymer matrices; polypyrrole and poly(N-(4-(3-thienyl methylene)-oxycarbonyl phenyl) maleimide-co-pyrrole) via electrochemical method. Fourier transform infrared and scanning electron microscope were employed to characterize the copolymer of (N-(4-(3-thienyl methylene)-oxycarbonyl phenyl) maleimide) with pyrrole. Kinetic parameters, maximum reaction rate and Michealis-Menten constant, were determined. Effects of temperatur...
