Research Abstract |
In this study we have developed methods for the introduction of transition metal compounds as cofactors into the antigen-combining site to function as metal enzymes. Because transition metal catalysis catalyzes a variety of chemical transformations, the introduction of a transition metal into the antigen-combining site widen the versatility of antibody catalysts. We have studied two methods to introduce the transition metal to the antigen-combining site, (1) immunization of the transition-state analog which contains transition metal compounds, and (2) introduction of transition metal containing artificial cofactors into the antigen-combining site by using the technique of holoabzyme.
