Resumo
Esta tese de doutoramento apresentou o entendimento de processos redox enzimáticos, detalhando o mecanismo envolvido na troca eletrônica, a qual resulta na formação de um produto, por catálise enzimática. Observou-se a influência de um eletrodo sob a ação de um potencial estacionário aplicado (E) na reação enzima/substrato. Realizou-se eletroanálises, como: Voltametria Cíclica (VC) e Espectroscopia de Impedância Eletroquímica (EIE), para a penicilinase. Os resultados obtidos dão indícios de que a reação enzimática se beneficia de determinados potenciais, pois o parâmetro utilizado, Rct, resistência à transferência de cargas, sugere que ocorre maior troca eletrônica em alguns potenciais ótimos (faixa de -0,3 a -0,5 V). A Simulação Molecular serviu para estudar o comportamento atomístico por métodos clássicos (Dinâmica Molecular – DM) para as condições impostas experimentalmente, esclarecendo o mecanismo de reação enzimática por métodos quânticos (DFT – Teoria do Funcional de Densidade) e híbridos (QM/MM), cabendo salientar que a penicilinase não pertence à classe das enzimas oxirredutivas.
This doctoral thesis presented the understanding of enzymatic redox processes, detailing the mechanism involved in the electronic exchange, which results in the formation of a product by enzymatic catalysis. The influence of an electrode under the action of an applied stationary potential (E) on the enzyme/substrate reaction was observed. Electroanalysis was performed, such as: Cyclic Voltammetry (VC) and Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy (EIS), for the penicilinase. The results obtained indicate that the enzymatic reaction benefits from certain potentials, since the parameter used, Rct, resistance to the transfer of charges, suggests that there is greater electronic exchange in some optimal potentials (range the -0.3 to -0.5 V). The Molecular Simulation was used to study the atomistic behavior by classical methods (Molecular Dynamics - DM) for experimentally imposed conditions, clarifying the mechanism of enzymatic reaction by quantum methods (DFT) and hybrids (QM/MM). That penicillinase does not belong to the class of oxidoreductive enzymes.
