| Abstract;Cytochrome c peroxidase which catalyzes the oxidation of a substrate has one heme and two histidine residues (distal His and proximal His) at its active site. The distal His could serve as a proton donor and cooperate with charged arginine(Arg) to make the distal side substantially polar (pull effect). The proximal imidazolate ligand of His could serve as a strong internal electron donor to destabilize the O-O bond of the hydroperoxoiron(III)-porphyrin (push effect). In order to develop the de novo designed polypeptide in enzymatic activity, we attempted to engineer the iron(III)-porphyrin linked .BETA..ALPHA..BETA..ALPHA.-polypeptide by attachment of positive charged Arg to its active site.
