Horseradish Peroxidase Reaction


Oxidation of ABTS using Horseradish Peroxidase (EC 1.11.1.7)

Chemical Equation

$${Hydrogen}\ {Peroxide} + {ABTS} \rightleftharpoons {ABTS}_{Oxidised} + {Water}$$

Rate Equation

$$\nu = \frac{K_{cat}[HRP] \frac{[H_2 O_2]}{K_{m,H_2 O_2}}\left({ 1- \frac{[H_2 O_2][ABTS]}{[ABTS_{Oxidised}]} \frac{1}{K_{eq}}} \right)}{1+\frac{[H_2 O_2]}{K_{m,H_2 O_2}}+\frac{[ABTS]}{K_{m,ABTS}}+\frac{[H_2 O_2][ABTS]}{K_{m,ABTS}K_{m,H_2 O_2}}+\frac{[ABTS_{Oxidised}]}{K_{m,ABTS_{Oxidised}}}} $$

Symbol Meaning
$$K_{m,A}$$ Michaelis constant of species A
$$K_{cat}$$ Turnover number
$$[A]$$ Concentration of A
$$ \nu$$ Reaction Rate


Parameter Sourcing

Kcat and Km parameters were collected from BRENDA

Keq was calculated using the Van’t Hoff equation using the Gibbs free energy sourced from MetaCyc

$$ K_{eq} = e^{\frac{-\Delta G} {RT}}$$
