Polymeric model systems for flavoenzyme activity: towards synthetic flavoenzymes

Brian J. Jordan, Graeme Cooke, James F. Garety, Michael A. Pollier, Nadiya Kryvokhyzha, Ali Bayir, Gouher Rabani and Vincent M. Rotello


We report the synthesis of a water-soluble flavin polymer using ATRP, whereby the oligoethylene glycol backbone provides both a local hydrophobic environment and redox tuning of the flavin moiety typical of flavoenzyme prototypes.
