Abstract
Summary Basic information concerning the behavior, on electrochemical reduction and oxidation, of proteins and enzymes at a mercury electrode and other electrodes is summarized. The electrochemical behavior of ferredoxin at a mercury electrode is interpreted on the basis of the theory of surface redox reaction. Equations of Brdicka current at a d.m.e. and a h.m.d.e. of SS/SH-containing proteins are presented, in which the Brdicka current activity of protein is represented by a constant k B . Values of k B of various proteins are given. Cytochrome c and myoglobin contain neither the SS nor the SH group, but give a Brdicka current which is attributable to the heme moiety in the molecules. The Brdicka current can be utilized for the study of protein-protein interaction, as well as for trace analysis of proteins. Other polarographic methods of trace analysis of proteins are summarized.
