Abstract excerpt
Point mutations of dehaloperoxidase-hemoglobin A (DHP A) that affect the surface charge have been prepared to study the interaction between DHP A with its substrate 2,4,6-trichlorophenol (TCP). Kinetic studies of these surface mutations showed a correlation, in which the more positively charged mutants have increased catalytic efficiency compared with wild type DHP A. As a result, the hypothesis of this study is...
