Abstract. Copper/zinc superoxide dismutase (CuZnSOD), a 32.5 kDa metalloprotein with a radius of ca. 2.1 nm, catalyses the superoxide to hydrogen peroxide and molecular oxygen. At the femtomolar concentration range, has been sensed through electrochemical catalytic amplification using a Pt ultramicroelectrode. During amperometric (i vs. t) analysis, cathodic and anodic current transitions peaks were seen, in agreement with the metalloprotein catalytic mechanism. The current amplitudes were analyzed and correspond to the CuZnSOD dimensions. Thermal treatment of metalloprotein samples at 80 °C showed larger current spikes suggesting aggregation without losing its catalytic capability. The size was confirmed by transmission electron microscopy.
Resumen. Cuprozinc superóxido dismutasa (CuZnSOD), es una metaloproteina de 32.5 kDa con un radio de aproximadamente 2.1 nm. Esta enzima cataliza la reacción de superóxido a peróxido y oxígeno molecular. Por primera vez, esta proteína es detectada a concentraciones femtomolares haciendo uso de la técnica electroquímica conocida como amplificación catalítica y la tecnología de ultra-microelectrodos de Pt. Durante un análisis amperométrico (curvas i vs. t), se observaron picos transitorios de corriente catódica y anódica que concuerdan con el mecanismo catalítico de la enzima. Al analizar la amplitud de la corriente, la misma concuerda con las dimensiones de CuZnSOD. Luego de exponer la proteína a un tratamiento térmico de 80 °C, CuZnSOD mostró picos de corriente transitorias que sugieren aglomeración de la enzima sin perder su capacidad catalítica. El tamaño fue confirmado por microscopía electrónica de transmisión.
