The resonance Raman spectra of microperoxidase‐11 loaded into the siliceous materials MCM‐41 and SBA‐15 demonstrate a pH dependence indicative of a protonation event on the substrate. An unusual change in relative Raman intensities without a shift in wavenumbers is observed upon lowering the system pH. Protonation of the silica surface is suggested to induce a reorientation of the MP‐11 fragments within the silica framework. Copyright © 2006 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
