Diphenoloxidase activities of two molluscan hemocyanins, isolated from the marine snails Rapana venosa and garden snails Helix vulgaris were studied using o-diphenol and L-Dopa as substrates. The dimers of H. vulgaris He show both, diphenol (Km=2.86 mM and K-cat=4.48) and L-Dopa activity due to a more open active sites of the enzyme and better access of the substrates. The K,, value of molluscan H. vulgaris He is very close to those of Helix pomatia and Sepia officinalis Hcs, but several times higher compared to those of Rapana and Octopus Hcs. Also HvH has a very high enzyme activity compared with other molluscan Hcs. Kinetic measurements with native RvH and both structural subunits, RvH1 and RvH2, show that RvH and only one structural subunit, RvH2, exhibited only o-diphenol activity, but no L-Dopa oxidizing activity.
