A bienzyme electrochemical probe has been assembled and used to monitor the inhibition of the enzyme protein phosphatase-2A (PP2A) by okadaic acid (OA), taking advantage of the particular characteristics of a biochemical pathway in which PP2A is involved. This enzyme has significant activity toward glycogen phosphorylase a (PHOS a), which in turn catalyzes the conversion of glycogen to glucose-1-phosphate (G-1-P). In addition, PP2A is strongly inhibited by OA and its derivatives. Due to this combination of properties, PP2A was employed to develop an assay system involving a preliminary phase of off-line enzymatic incubations (OA/PP2A, PP2A/PHOS a, PHOS a/glycogen+phosphate). This off-line step was followed by the electrochemical detection of H2O2, which is the final product of two sequential enzymatic reactions: G-1-P with alkaline phosphatase (AP) producing glucose, then glucose with glucose oxidase (GOD) producing hydrogen peroxide. These two enzymes were coimmobilized on a nylon net membrane that was placed over an H2O2platinum probe inserted into a flow injection analysis (FIA) system. During a first phase of the study, all analytical parameters were optimized. During a subsequent phase, the inhibition of PP2A enzyme by OA was evaluated. The calibration of the system shows a working range for detection of OA between 30 and 250 pg ml−1. The total analysis time is the sum of 50min for the off-line enzymatic incubations and 4min for the biosensor response.
