Abstract
Being announced as one of the "2019 Top Ten Emerging Technologies in Chemistry" by IUPAC, the directed evolution of artificial metalloenzymes has led to a broad scope of abiotic processes. Here, inspired by those key proteins in bioluminescence, a rudimentary expression of bio-electrochemiluminescent (ECL) macromolecules was achieved via the complexation of zinc proto-porphyrin IX (ZnPPIX) within apo-hemoglobin (apo-Hb). A high-yield monochromic irradiation at 644 nm could be provoked potentiostatically from the reconstituted holo-HbZnPPIX in solutions. Its secondary structure integrity was elucidated by UV and circular dichroism spectrometry, while voltammetry-hyphenated surface plasmon resonance authenticated its ligation conservativeness in electrical fields. Further conjugation with streptavidin rendered a homogeneous Janus fusion of both receptor and reporter domains, enabling a new abiological catalyst-linked ECL bioassay. On the other hand, singular ZnPPIX inside each tetrameric subunit of Hb accomplished an overall signal amplification without the bother of luminogenic heterojunctions. This pH-tolerant and non-photobleaching optics was essentialized to be the unique configuration interaction between Zn and O2, by which the direct electrochemistry of proteins catalyzed the transient progression of O2 → O2·- → O2* + hυ selectively. Such principle was implemented as a signal-on strategy for the determination of a characteristic cancer biomarker, the vascular endothelial growth factor, resulting in competent performance at a low detection limit of 0.6 pg·mL-1 and a wide calibration range along with good stability and reliability in real practices. This simple mutation repurposed the O2-transport Hb in the erythrocytes of almost all vertebrates into a cluster of oxidoreductases with intrinsic ECL activity, which would enrich the chromophore library. More importantly, its genetically engineered variants may come in handy in biomedical diagnosis and visual electrophysiology.

Abstract
The redox behavior of the six-coordinate (por)Mn(NO)(1-MeIm) (por = tetraphenylporphyrin dianion (TPP), tetratolylporphyrin dianion (TTP), or tetra-p-methoxyphenylporphyrin dianion (T(p-OMe)PP)) complexes were examined by cyclic voltammetry at room temperature and at -78 degrees C in two nonaqueous solvents (CH2Cl2 and THF) at a Pt disk electrode. In CH2Cl2 at room temperature, the compounds undergo four oxidations and two reductions within the solvent limit; in THF, the compounds undergo one oxidation and three reductions. In both solvents, the first oxidation represents a chemically irreversible one-electron process involving the rapid loss of nitric oxide. The oxidation occurs at the MnNO site as judged from bulk electrolysis, UV-vis spectroscopy at room temperature, and IR spectroelectrochemistry at room temperature and at -78 degrees C. The second oxidation, accessible in CH2Cl2, is also chemically irreversible and occurs at the porphyrin ring; the third and the fourth oxidations are, on the other hand, chemically reversible but also occur at the porphyrin ring. The first reduction is chemically irreversible in CH2Cl2, occurs at the porphyrin ring, and is followed by loss of NO. In THF, the first reduction is chemically reversible and is followed by reversible loss of NO.
