A new method of enzyme immobilization has been described using poly(4-methacryloxybenzoic acid) as the carrier. Activation of the polymer, prior to enzyme attachment, was achieved with N-ethoxycarbonyl-2-ethoxy-1,2-dihydroquinoline. The enzyme coupling step proceeded through nucleophilic attack by the protein on a mixed carbonic anhydride. The degree of polymer activation was determined by analysis for quinoline, a by-product of the reaction. The polymer–enzyme complex was compared to the enzyme in solution in terms of pH optimum, substrate kinetics, and thermal denaturation. Potential uses of the polymer–enzyme system in chemical synthesis of benzoquinone derivatives are discussed.
