A heme•DNAzyme activated by hydrogen peroxide catalytically oxidizes thioethers by direct oxygen atom transfer rather than by a Compound I-like intermediate

Hemin [Fe(III)-protoporphyrin IX] is known to bind tightly to single-stranded DNA and RNA molecules that fold into G-quadruplexes (GQ). Such complexes are strongly activated for oxidative catalysis. These heme•DNAzymes and ribozymes have found broad utility in bioanalytical and medicinal chemistry a...
