The Registration of a Biomaser-Like Effect in an Enzyme System with an RTM Sensor

الملخص EN

The concentration dependence of a microwave frequency radiation from a solution of a functioning enzyme system (ES) (with the example of cytochrome P450 BM3 (CYP102A1) system during lauric acid (LA) hydroxylation) has been studied with a radiothermometric sensor.

Registration of the radiation from the enzyme solution has been performed in the frequency range from 3.4 to 4.2 GHz at the enzyme concentrations from 10−10 М to 10−6 М.

It has been demonstrated that the catalysis of LA hydroxylation in a reconstituted CYP102A1 system is accompanied by a generation of microwave radiation over the entire range of concentrations studied.

It has been found that a transition from a multipulse mode (at nanomolar enzyme concentrations from 10−10М to 10−8М) to a single-pulse mode (at micromolar enzyme concentrations from 10−7М to 10−6М) is observed.

This effect is discussed on the basis of assumptions considering possible realization of biomaser-like radiation in the enzyme system.

The discovered concentration-based effect of the transition of an unsynchronized pulsed radiation into a synchronized one in ES can further be used in the development of novel methods of noninvasive diagnostics of diseases, in mathematical modeling of the functioning of living systems, and in the development of next-generation quantum computers.
