  • Title: MgFe-layered double hydroxide modified electrodes for direct electron transfer of heme proteins.
    Author: Li M, Ji H, Wang Y, Liu L, Gao F.
    Journal: Biosens Bioelectron; 2012; 38(1):239-44. PubMed ID: 22721646.
    Abstract:
    In this study, the Fe-based layered double hydroxides (Mg(3)Fe LDH) were used to immobilize heme proteins including hemoglobin (Hb), myoglobin (Mb) and horseradish peroxidase (HRP) for fabrication of heme/Mg(3)Fe LDH film on glassy carbon electrode (Mg(3)Fe-heme/GCE). The possible role of iron in framework of LDH to promote direct electron transfer (DET) of heme proteins was investigated using an LDH containing non-iron as a reference. Hb was selected as a model protein for studying the electrocatalytic activity of immobilized heme in LDH film. The Mg(3)Fe-Hb/GCE displayed an enhanced electrocatalytic reduction towards H(2)O(2). The biosensor showed a very low detection limit (0.036 μM) and apparent Michaelis-Menten constant (7.98 μM). This work outlines that Fe-based LDH modified electrode provides a promising platform for immobilization of heme proteins and development of sensitive biosensors.
