Journal ArticleDOI

Manganese-Based Nanozymes: Multienzyme Redox Activity and Effect on the Nitric Oxide Produced by Endothelial Nitric Oxide Synthase.

TL;DR: It was found that Mn3 O4 nanoparticles mimic the functions of all three cellular antioxidant enzymes: superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), and glutathione peroxidase (GPx) and were found to be biocompatible, with very low cytotoxicity.
Journal ArticleDOI

CeVO 4 Nanozymes Catalyze the Reduction of Dioxygen to Water without Releasing Partially Reduced Oxygen Species

TL;DR: A remarkably active CeVO4 nanozyme is reported that functionally mimics cytochrome c oxidase (CcO), the terminal enzyme in the respiratory electron transport chain, by catalyzing a four-electron reduction of dioxygen to water.
Journal ArticleDOI

Tuning seleniumiodine contacts: from secondary soft–soft interactions to covalent bonds

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors reviewed the properties of Se and I van der Waals distances to strong covalent bonds with the help of recent structural determinations of compounds exhibiting SeI distances from 384 to 244 pm, with emphasis on less clearcut cases.
Journal ArticleDOI

Redox regulation of protein tyrosine phosphatase 1B (PTP1B): a biomimetic study on the unexpected formation of a sulfenyl amide intermediate.

TL;DR: These studies reveal that the introduction of a substituent at the 6-position of the benzene ring enhances the cyclization process not only by facilitating a closer approach of the -OH group and the backbone -NH moiety but also by increasing the electrophilicity of the sulfur atom in the sulfenic acid.
Journal ArticleDOI

Inhibition of Lactoperoxidase-Catalyzed Oxidation by Imidazole-Based Thiones and Selones: A Mechanistic Study

TL;DR: These experimental and theoretical studies suggest that the selones exist as zwitterions, in which the imidazole ring contains a positive charge and the selenium atom carries a large negative charge, which is 4-12-fold higher than that of the well-known GPx-mimic ebselen.
