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
$$\nu = \frac{K_{cat}[HRP] \frac{[H_2 O_2]}{K_{m,H_2 O_2}}\left({ 1- \frac{[H_2 O_2][ABTS]}{[ABTS_{Oxidised}]} \frac{1}{K_{eq}}} \right)}{1+\frac{[H_2 O_2]}{K_{m,H_2 O_2}}+\frac{[ABTS]}{K_{m,ABTS}}+\frac{[H_2 O_2][ABTS]}{K_{m,ABTS}K_{m,H_2 O_2}}+\frac{[ABTS_{Oxidised}]}{K_{m,ABTS_{Oxidised}}}} $$where:
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
$$ K_{eq} = e^{\frac{-\Delta G} {RT}}$$Parameters with uncertainty
