Investigation of the Antioxidant Properties of the Quaternized Chitosan Modified with a Gallic Acid Residue Using Peroxidase that Produces Reactive Oxygen Species. BIOCHEMISTRY.

[PMID: 35508903 DOI: 10.1134/s0006297922020067] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/10/2021] [Revised: 12/15/2021] [Accepted: 12/22/2021] [Indexed: 06/14/2023]
Abstract
Chitosan modified with a (2-hydroxy-3-trimethylammonium) propyl group and gallic acid residue, or quaternized chitosan with gallic acid (QCG), was synthesized. Antioxidant properties of the produced QCG have been investigated. Peroxidase in combination with NADH and salicyl hydroxamate (SHAM) caused consumption of oxygen and production of H2O2 in aqueous solution as a result of O2 reduction in the peroxidase-oxidase reactions. The rates of O2 consumption and H2O2 generation were reduced in the presence of QCG. The antioxidant propyl gallate (PG) and superoxide dismutase (SOD) had the same effect, but not the quaternized chitosan (QC) without gallic acid. The effect of chitosan derivatives on the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in the cells of pea leaf epidermis and on the cell death detected by the destruction of cell nuclei, was investigated. QCG, QC, and SOD had no effect, while PG decreased the rate of ROS generation in the cells of the epidermis, which was induced by NADH with SHAM or by menadione. QCG and QC prevented destruction of the guard cell nuclei in the pea leaf epidermis that was caused by NADH with SHAM or by KCN. SOD had no effect on the destruction of nuclei, while the effect of PG depended on the inducer of the cell death. Suppression of the destruction of guard cell nuclei by chitosan derivatives was associated not with their antioxidant effect, but with the disruption of the plasma membrane of the cells. The results obtained have shown that QCG exhibits antioxidant properties in solutions, but does not prevent generation of ROS in the plant cells. The mechanism of antioxidant effect of QCG is similar to that of PG and SOD.

Abstract
The peroxidase-oxidase oscillating reaction was the first (bio)chemical reaction to show chaotic behaviour. The reaction is rich in bifurcation scenarios, from period-doubling to peak-adding mixed mode oscillations. Here, we study a state-of-the-art model of the peroxidase-oxidase reaction. Using the model, we report systematic numerical experiments exploring the impact of changing the enzyme concentration on the dynamics of the reaction. Specifically, we report high-resolution phase diagrams predicting and describing how the reaction unfolds over a quite extended range of enzyme concentrations. Surprisingly, such diagrams reveal that the enzyme concentration has a huge impact on the reaction evolution. The highly intricate dynamical behaviours predicted here are difficult to establish theoretically due to the total absence of an adequate framework to solve nonlinearly coupled differential equations. But such behaviours may be validated experimentally.

Abstract
The peroxidase-oxidase (PO) reaction involves the oxidation of reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide by molecular oxygen. When both reactants are supplied continuously to a reaction mixture containing the enzyme and a phenolic compound, the reaction will exhibit oscillatory behavior. In fact, the reaction exhibits a zoo of dynamical behaviors ranging from simple periodic oscillations to period-doubled and mixed mode oscillations to quasiperiodicity and chaos. The routes to chaos involve period-doubling, period-adding, and torus bifurcations. The dynamic behaviors in the experimental system can be simulated by detailed semiquantitative models. Previous models of the reaction have omitted the phenolic compound from the reaction scheme. In the current paper, we present new experimental results with the oscillating PO reaction that add to our understanding of its rich dynamics, and we describe a new variant of a previous model, which includes the chemistry of the phenol in the reaction mechanism. This new model can simulate most of the experimental behaviors of the experimental system including the new observations presented here. For example, the model reproduces the two main routes to chaos observed in experiments: (i) a period-doubling scenario, which takes place at low pH, and a period-adding scenario involving mixed mode oscillations (MMOs), which occurs at high pH. Our simulations suggest alternative explanations for the pH-sensitivity of the dynamics. We show that the MMO domains are separated by narrow parameter regions of chaotic behavior or quasiperiodicity. These regions start as tongues of secondary quasiperiodicity and develop into strange attractors through torus breakdown.

Abstract
The peroxidase-oxidase oscillator, a model of biological oscillations, is usually studied in conjunction with the effector molecule, 2,4-dichlorophenol. In this account, we present evidence of the effects of a naturally occurring phenol, tyramine, on the reaction, and also those of the structurally similar 4-aminophenol. Whereas 2,4-dichlorophenol gives rise to sustained oscillations at 40 μM, it was discovered that tyramine promotes damped oscillations at a concentration of 120 μM. Oxidation of NADH was completely inhibited by 4-aminophenol and ascorbate. In separate experiments, the peroxidase-catalyzed ring coupling of tyramine and 4-aminophenol was observed, which in the case of tyramine, may provide an explanation for the damping of oscillations.

Abstract
Tetraphenylphosphonium (TPP(+)) and tetramethylrhodamine ethyl ester (TMRE(+)) cations used as transmembrane carriers of ubiquinone (MitoQ) and plastoquinone (SkQ, SkQR) in mitochondria prevented at nanomolar concentrations the chitosan- or H(2)O(2)-induced destruction of the nucleus in epidermal cells of epidermis isolated from pea leaves. The protective effect of the cations was potentiated by palmitate. Penetrating anions of tetraphenylboron (TB(-)) and phenyl dicarbaundecaborane also displayed protective effects at micromolar concentrations; the effect of TB(-) was potentiated by NH(4)Cl. It is proposed that the protective effect of the penetrating cations and anions against chitosan is due to suppression of the generation of reactive oxygen species in mitochondria as a result of the protonophoric effect of the cations plus fatty acids and the anions plus NH(4)(+). Phenol was suitable as the electron donor for H2O2 reduction catalyzed by horseradish peroxidase, preventing the destruction of cell nuclei. The penetrating cations and anions, SkQ1, and SkQR1 did not maintain the peroxidase or peroxidase/oxidase reactions measured by their suitability as electron donors for H(2)O(2) reduction or by the oxidation of exogenous NADH.

Abstract
Here we present the results of in vitro and in vivo studies of the influence of Mn²+ and Cu²+ on the peroxidative and oxidative catalytic functions of class III peroxidase. Complex peroxidase catalysis by intermediates generated in the reaction was analyzed by utilizing the activating effect of Mn²+ and the inhibitory effect of Cu²+ on the oxidative reaction in vitro. p-Coumaric acid was used as an enzyme substrate in the peroxidative reaction and as a cofactor in the oxidative reaction. In order to correlate the observed in vitro effects with the in vivo situation, we exposed maize plants to excess concentrations of Mn²+ and Cu²+ in the hydroponic solutions. Copper severely arrested plant growth, while manganese exerted no significant effect. The effects on peroxidase activity and isoforms profile of root soluble and cell wall bound fractions were studied. Inhibition of the peroxidase oxidative function by copper was reversible, localized in the cell wall, and accompanied by disappearance of some and appearance of new cationic isoforms. Copper-mediated changes were suppressed by the presence of manganese, although Mn²+ treatment per se did not affect the activity of the peroxidase enzyme. The results on the peroxidase activity in maize roots grown with excess Mn²+ and Cu²+ point to the coupling between the oxidative cycle, root growth and different peroxidase isoforms.

Abstract
We have investigated the regulation of the oscillatory generation of H(2)O(2) and oscillations in shape and size in neutrophils in suspension. The oscillations are independent of cell density and hence do not represent a collective phenomena. Furthermore, the oscillations are independent of the external glucose concentration and the oscillations in H(2)O(2) production are 180 degrees out of phase with the oscillations in NAD(P)H. Cytochalasin B blocked the oscillations in shape and size whereas it increased the period of the oscillations in H(2)O(2) production. 1- and 2-butanol also blocked the oscillations in shape and size, but only 1-butanol inhibited the oscillations in H(2)O(2) production. We conjecture that the oscillations are likely to be due to feedback regulations in the signal transduction cascade involving phosphoinositide 3-kinases (PI3K). We have tested this using a simple mathematical model, which explains most of our experimental observations.

Abstract
Addition of chitosan or H2O2 caused destruction of nuclei of epidermal cells (EC) in the epidermis isolated from pea leaves. Phenol, a substrate of the apoplastic peroxidase-oxidase, in concentrations of 10(-10)-10(-6) M prevented the destructive effect of chitosan. Phenolic compounds 2,4-dichlorophenol, catechol, and salicylic acid, phenolic uncouplers of oxidative phosphorylation pentachlorophenol and 2,4-dinitrophenol, and a non-phenolic uncoupler carbonyl cyanide m-chlorophenylhydrazone, but not tyrosine or guaiacol, displayed similar protective effects. A further increase in concentrations of the phenolic compounds abolished their protective effects against chitosan. Malate, a substrate of the apoplastic malate dehydrogenase, replenished the pool of apoplastic NADH that is a substrate of peroxidase-oxidase, prevented the chitosan-induced destruction of the EC nuclei, and removed the deleterious effect of the increased concentration of phenol (0.1 mM). Methylene Blue, benzoquinone, and N,N,N',N'-tetramethyl-p-phenylenediamine (TMPD) capable of supporting the optimal catalytic action of peroxidase-oxidase cancelled the destructive effect of chitosan on the EC nuclei. The NADH-oxidizing combination of TMPD with ferricyanide promoted the chitosan-induced destruction of the nuclei. The data suggest that the apoplastic peroxidase-oxidase is involved in the antioxidant protection of EC against chitosan and H2O2.

Abstract
In this work, the regeneration of native horseradish peroxidase (HRP), following the consecutive reduction of oxo-ferryl pi-cation (compound I) and oxo-ferryl (compound II) forms, was observed by UV-visible spectrometry and electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) in the presence of methylene (MB+), in the dark and under irradiation. In the dark, MB+ did not affect the rate of HRP compound I and II reduction, compatible with hydrogen peroxide as the solely reducing species. Under irradiation, the dye promoted a significant increase in the native HRP regeneration rate in a pH-dependent manner. Flash photolysis measurements revealed significant redshift of the MB+ triplet absorbance spectrum in the presence of native HRP. This result is compatible with the dye binding on the enzyme structure leading to the increase in the photogenerated MB* yield. In the presence of HRP compound II, the lifetime of the dye at 520 nm decreased approximately 75% relative to the presence of native HRP that suggests MB* as the heme iron photochemical reducing agent. In argon and in air-saturated media, photoactivated MB+ led to native HRP regeneration in a time- and concentration-dependent manner. The apparent rate constant for photoactivated MB+-promoted native HRP regeneration, in argon and in air-saturated medium and measured as a function of MB+ concentration, exhibited saturation that is suggestive of dye binding on the HRP structure. The dissociation constant (KMB) observed for the binding of dye to HRP was 5.4+/-0.6 microM and 0.57+/-0.05 microM in argon and air-saturated media, respectively. In argon-saturated medium, the rate of the conversion of HRP compound II to native HRP was significantly higher, k2argon=(2.1+/-0.1)x10(-2) s(-1), than that obtained in air-equilibrated medium, k2air=(0.73+/-0.02)x10(-2) s(-1). Under these conditions the efficiency of photoactivated MB(+)-promoted native HRP regeneration was determined in argon and air-equilibrated media as being, respectively: k2/KMB=3.9x10(3) and 12.8x10(3) M(-1) s(-1).

Abstract
In experiments on the kinetics of the peroxidase-oxidase oscillatory reaction in pH 5.l acetate buffer, biofilms form in less than 48 h on the quartz reactor surface. The nominally homogeneous peroxidase system shows dynamical changes in response to this biofilm growth, partially explaining subtle differences among dynamics observed over time and between laboratories. Kinetics data and model computations are correlated with micrographs of biofilm formation. It is evident that bare quartz also interacts with reaction species, so that the surface area-to-volume ratio is an important parameter on which observed dynamics depend.

Abstract
The peroxidase-oxidase reaction has become a model system for the study of oscillations and complex dynamics in biochemical systems. In the present paper we give an overview of previous experimental and theoretical studies of the peroxidase-oxidase reaction. Recent in vitro experiments have raised the question whether the reaction also exhibits oscillations and complex dynamics in vivo. To investigate this possibility further we have undertaken new experimental studies of the reaction, using horseradish extracts and phenols which are widely distributed in plants. The results are discussed in light of the occurrence and a possible functional role of oscillations and complex dynamics of the peroxidase-oxidase reaction in vivo.

Abstract
We have synthesized and characterized new nanometer-sized polyacrylamide particles containing horseradish peroxidase and fluorescent dyes. Proteins and dyes are encapsulated by radical polymerization in inverse microemulsion. The activity of the encapsulated enzyme has been examined and it maintains its ability to catalyze the oxidation of guaiacol with hydrogen peroxide as the electron acceptor, although at a slightly lower rate compared to that of the free enzyme in solution. The embedded enzyme is also capable of catalyzing the peroxidase-oxidase reaction. However, the rate is decreased by a factor of 2-3 compared to that of the free enzyme. The reduced rate is probably due to limitation of diffusion of substrates and products into and out of the particles. The catalytic activity of horseradish peroxidase in the polyacrylamide matrix demonstrates that the particles have pores which are large enough for substrates to enter and products to leave the polymer matrix containing the enzyme. The polymer matrix protects the embedded enzyme from proteolytic digestion, which is demonstrated by treating the particles with a mixture of the two proteases trypsin and proteinase K. The particles allow for quantification of hydrogen peroxide and other reactive oxygen species in microenvironments, and we propose that the particles may find use as nanosensors for use in, e.g., living cells.

Abstract
Special structures in a chemical reaction network can give rise to bistability, oscillations, and chaos. It has been shown recently [A. Sensse and M. Eiswirth, J. Chem. Phys. 122, 044516 (2005)] that the introduction of an additional species in a supplementary feedback loop to a minimal autocatalytic oscillator gives rise to chaotic dynamics in a certain range of parameters, independent of the particular realization of the additional loop. This provides a possibility to decide if chaos may occur just by analyzing the network structure of an existing model. Here, we apply this concept to analyze the complex dynamics in several essential subsystems of the peroxidase-oxidase reaction system. The aim of the present paper is to determine the nature of the occurring chaos and its location in the parameter space by numerical bifurcation analysis and simulations.

Abstract
Steady-state kinetics for the hydrolysis of benzoylcholine (BzCh) and benzoylthiocholine (BzSCh) by wild-type human butyrylcholinesterase (BuChE) and by the peripheral anionic site mutant D70G were compared. kcat/Km for the hydrolysis of BzSCh was 17-fold and 32-fold lower than that for hydrolysis of BzCh by wild-type and D70G, respectively. The rate-limiting step for hydrolysis of BzCh was deacylation, whereas acylation was rate-limiting for hydrolysis of BzSCh. Wild-type enzyme and the D70G mutant were found to reach steady-state velocity slowly with BzCh as the substrate. At pH 6, the approach to steady-state for both enzymes consisted of a mono-exponential acceleration upon which a set of damped oscillations was superimposed. From pH 7 to 8.5, the approach to steady-state consisted of a simple exponential acceleration. The damped oscillations were analyzed by both a numerical approximation and simulation based on a theoretical model. BuChE-catalyzed hydrolysis of the thiocholine analogue of BzCh showed neither lags nor oscillations, under the same conditions. The frequency and amplitude of the damped oscillations decreased as the BzCh concentration increased. The apparent induction time for the exponential portion of the lag was calculated from the envelope of the damped oscillations or from the smooth lag. Wild-type BuChE showed a hyperbolic increase in induction time as the BzCh concentration increased (tau max = 210 s at pH 6.0). However, the induction time for D70G was constant over the whole range of BzCh concentrations (tau max = 60 s at pH 6.0). Thus, the induction time does not conform to a simple hysteretic model in which there is a slow conformational transition of the enzyme from an inactive form E to an active form E'. No pH-dependence of the induction time was found between pH 6.0 and 8.5 in sodium phosphate buffers of various concentrations (from 1 mm to 1 m). However, increasing the pH tended to abolish the oscillations (increase the damping factor). This effect was more pronounced for D70G than for wild-type. Although the lyotropic properties of phosphate change from chaotropic at pH 6.0 to kosmotropic at pH > 8.0, no effect of phosphate concentration on the oscillations was noticed at the different pH values, suggesting that the oscillations are not related to a pH-dependent Hofmeister effect of phosphate ions. Simulation and theoretical analysis of the oscillatory behaviour of the approach to the steady-state for BuChE led us to propose a model for the hysteresis of BuChE with BzCh. In this model, the substrate-free enzyme is present as an equilibrium mixture of two forms, E and E'. Substrate binds to E and E', but only Epsilon'S makes products. It is proposed that oscillations originate from a time-dependent change in the local concentration, solvation and/or conformation of substrate in the bulk solution. 1H-NMR measurements provided evidence for a slow equilibrium between two BzCh conformers. Binding of the conformationally preferred substrate conformer leads to products.

Abstract
The peroxidase-oxidase reaction is known to involve reactive oxygen species as intermediates. These intermediates inactivate many types of biomolecules, including peroxidase itself. Previously, we have shown that oscillatory dynamics in the peroxidase-oxidase reaction seem to protect the enzyme from inactivation. It was suggested that this is due to a lower average concentration of reactive oxygen species in the oscillatory state compared to the steady state. Here, we studied the peroxidase-oxidase reaction with either 4-hydroxybenzoic acid or melatonin as cofactors. We show that the protective effect of oscillatory dynamics is present in both cases. We also found that the enzyme degradation depends on the concentration of the cofactor and on the pH of the reaction mixture. We simulated the oscillatory behaviour, including the oscillation/steady state bistability observed experimentally, using a detailed reaction scheme. The computational results confirm the hypothesis that protection is due to lower average concentrations of superoxide radical during oscillations. They also show that the shape of the oscillations changes with increasing cofactor concentration resulting in a further decrease in the average concentration of radicals. We therefore hypothesize that the protective effect of oscillatory dynamics is a general effect in this system.

Abstract
We have examined DNA adduct formation in myeloperoxidase containing HL-60 cells treated with the toluene metabolite p-cresol. Treatment of HL-60 cells with the combination of p-cresol and H(2)O(2) produced four DNA adducts 1: (75.0%), 2: (9.1%), 3: (7.0%) and 4: (8.8%) and adduct levels ranging from 0.3 to 33.6 x 10(-7). The levels of DNA adducts formed by p-cresol were dependent on concentrations of p-cresol, H(2)O(2) and treatment time. In vitro incubation of p-cresol with myeloperoxidase and H(2)O(2) produced three DNA adducts 1: (40.5%), 2: (28.4%) and 3: (29.7%) with a relative adduct level of 0.7x10(-7). The quinone methide derivative of p-cresol (PCQM) was prepared by Ag(I)O oxidation. Reaction of calf thymus DNA with PCQM produced four adducts 1: (18.5%), 2: (36.4%), 3: (29.0%) and 5: (16.0%) with a relative adduct level 1.6x10(-7). Rechromatography analyses indicates that DNA adducts 1-3 formed in HL-60 cells treated with p-cresol and after myeloperoxidase activation of p-cresol were similar to those formed by reaction of DNA with PCQM. This observation suggests that p-cresol is activated to a quinone methide intermediate in each of these activation systems. Taken together, these results suggest PCQM is the reactive intermediate leading to the formation of DNA adducts in HL-60 cells treated with p-cresol. Furthermore, the DNA adducts formed by PCQM may provide a biomarker to assess occupational exposure to toluene.

Abstract
Melatonin induces oscillations in the peroxidase-oxidase (PO) reaction catalyzed by horseradish peroxidase. We present here studies of the effect of pH, enzyme concentration, and concentration of melatonin on the oscillation frequency. We also present a mechanistic model to explain the experimentally observed changes in oscillation frequency. Using the data obtained here we are able to predict that oscillations will also occur in the PO reaction catalyzed by myeloperoxidase. Myeloperoxidase is an important protein in activated neutrophils and we provide evidence that the oscillations of NAD(P)H, superoxide and hydrogen peroxide in these cells may involve this enzyme. Thus, our experimental system can be considered a model system for the nonrespiratory oxygen metabolism in activated neutrophils and other similar cells participating in the defence against invading pathogens.

Abstract
We present a two-compartment model to explain the oscillatory behavior observed experimentally in activated neutrophils. Our model is based mainly on the peroxidase-oxidase reaction catalyzed by myeloperoxidase with melatonin as a cofactor and NADPH oxidase, a major protein in the phagosome membrane of the leukocyte. The model predicts that after activation of a neutrophil, an increase in the activity of the hexose monophosphate shunt and the delivery of myeloperoxidase into the phagosome results in oscillations in oxygen and NAD(P)H concentration. The period of oscillation changes from >200 s to 10-30 s. The model is consistent with previously reported oscillations in cell metabolism and oxidant production. Key features and predictions of the model were confirmed experimentally. The requirement of the hexose monophosphate pathway for 10 s oscillations was verified using 6-aminonicotinamide and dexamethasone, which are inhibitors of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase. The role of the NADPH oxidase in promoting oscillations was confirmed by dose-response studies of the effect of diphenylene iodonium, an inhibitor of the NADPH oxidase. Moreover, the model predicted an increase in the amplitude of NADPH oscillations in the presence of melatonin, which was confirmed experimentally. Successful computer modeling of complex chemical dynamics within cells and their chemical perturbation will enhance our ability to identify new antiinflammatory compounds.

Abstract
We have investigated the activation of p-cresol to form DNA adducts using horseradish peroxidase, rat liver microsomes and MnO(2). In vitro activation of p-cresol with horseradish peroxidase produced six DNA adducts with a relative adduct level of 8.03+/-0.43 x 10(-7). The formation of DNA adducts by oxidation of p-cresol with horseradish peroxidase was inhibited 65 and 95% by the addition of either 250 or 500 microM ascorbic acid to the incubation. Activation of p-cresol with phenobarbital-induced rat liver microsomes with NADPH as the cofactor; resulted in the formation of a single DNA adduct with a relative adduct level of 0.28+/-0.08 x 10(-7). Similar incubations of p-cresol with microsomes and cumene hydroperoxide yielded three DNA adducts with a relative adduct level of 0.35+/-0.03 x 10(-7). p-Cresol was oxidized with MnO(2) to a quinone methide. Reaction of p-cresol (QM) with DNA produced five major adducts and a relative adduct level of 20.38+/-1.16 x 10(-7). DNA adducts 1,2 and 3 formed by activation of p-cresol with either horseradish peroxidase or microsomes, are the same as that produced by p-cresol (QM). This observation suggests that p-cresol is activated to a quinone methide intermediate by these activation systems. Incubation of deoxyguanosine-3'-phosphate with p-cresol (QM) resulted in a adduct pattern similar to that observed with DNA; suggesting that guanine is the principal site for modification. Taken together these results demonstrate that oxidation of p-cresol to the quinone methide intermediate results in the formation of DNA adducts. We propose that the DNA adducts formed by p-cresol may be used as molecular biomarkers of occupational exposure to toluene.

Abstract
We have studied the peroxidase-oxidase reaction with NADH and O2 as substrates and melatonin as a cofactor in a semibatch reactor. We show for the first time that melatonin is an activator of the reaction catalyzed by enzymes from both plant and animal sources. Furthermore, melatonin promotes oscillatory dynamics in the pH range from 5 to 6. The frequency of the oscillations depends on the pH such that an increase in pH was accompanied by a decrease in frequency. Conversely, an increase in the flow rate of NADH or an increase in the average concentration of NADH resulted in an increase in oscillation frequency. Complex dynamics were not observed with melatonin as a cofactor. These results are discussed in relation to observations of oscillatory dynamics and the function of melatonin and peroxidase in activated neutrophils.

Abstract
Surface photovoltage spectroscopy (SPS) was chosen to study the photovoltaic behavior of horseradish peroxidase (HRP), hemin and immobilized hemin (poly(NIPAAm/MBA/hemin)). Different photovoltaic behaviors were observed in these three systems. In air, similar SPS curves were found for HRP and poly(NIPAAm/MBA/hemin) with different response intensities. However, poly(NIPAAm/MBA/hemin) showed a wider changing range upon increasing the positive and negative bias to 1.0 V. The SPS of hemin showed a total different behavior when an external positive potential was applied. In vacuum, clearly different photovoltaic behaviors were found. Moreover, the response value decreased when HRP was exposed to O2, the SPS intensity was different from that in air, and could be altered by changing the external biases. On the other hand, the SPS could not be changed before and after poly(NIPAAm/MBA/hemin) was exposed to O2. These differences may result from different chemical microenvironments for hemin in HRP versus that in poly(NIPAAm/MBA/hemin). It could be concluded that H2O and O2 were important factors affecting the photovoltage response in HRP, but only H2O played this important role in poly(NIPAAm/MBA/hemin).
