Electroanalysis of biomacromolecules

  • Chapter
Experimental Techniques in Bioelectrochemistry

Part of the book series: Bioelectrochemistry: Principles and Practice ((BPP,volume 3))

Abstract

Biomacromolecules are involved in most of the fundamental reactions of living organisms. The basic building blocks of the most significant biomacromolecules (nucleic acids, proteins) are the molecules, which contain extensive delocalized or mobile electron systems. A result of this property is that these compounds are generally quite good electron donors and/or acceptors. Thus many small molecules of biological significance can be electrochemically reduced and/or oxidized. This in turn allows biomacromolecules containing such components to be analyzed by various electrochemical techniques. In addition, proteins can contain catalytic active groups that lower the hydrogen overvoltage at a mercury electrode. The catalytic waves corresponding to these groups in proteins enable analysis of these biopolymers at very low concentrations. The conjugated proteins can still contain prosthetic (non-protein) groups which can be electroactive. Studies of the electron-transfer reactions of these electroactive groups in proteins by electroanalytical techniques can provide an extraordinary amount of information about such reactions.
