甲醇和甲烷等一碳原料来源广泛,价格低廉,是生物制造的理想原料。甲醇脱氢酶(Methanol dehydrogenase,MDH)催化甲醇生成甲醛是一碳代谢的关键反应。目前已从天然甲基营养菌中发现了多种利用不同辅因子,具有不同酶学性质的MDH。其中,烟酰胺腺嘌呤双核苷酸(NAD)依赖型MDH被广泛应用于构建人工甲基营养菌。但是,NAD依赖型MDH的甲醇氧化活性较低,对甲醇的亲和力较差,导致甲醇氧化成为人工甲基营养菌代谢甲醇的限速步骤。为了提高甲醇氧化速率,进而提高人工甲基营养菌的甲醇利用效率,近年来大量研究集中于MDH的挖掘与改造研究。文中系统综述了不同类型MDH的发现、表征、改造以及在人工甲基营养菌中的应用进展,详细阐述了MDH的定向进化和多酶复合体的构建,并展望了通过细胞生长偶联的蛋白质进化和蛋白质理性设计获得高活性MDH的潜在策略。  相似文献

醇脱氢酶属于高等植物中普遍存在的一个锌结合脱氢/还原蛋白超家族,根据作用底物不同,将高等植物中的醇脱氢酶分为3个家族:乙醇脱氢酶(alcohol dehydrogenase,ADH)、肉桂醇脱氢酶(cinnamyl alcohol dehydrogenase,CAD)、甲醛脱氢酶(formaldehyde dehydrogenase,FDH)。3个家族均不同程度地响应植物逆境胁迫,不仅受低氧胁迫等逆境的诱导,也受ABA等激素的调控。CAD催化木质素合成,参与构建植物防御体系。ADH在植物香气物质合成中发挥作用,受乙烯等激素调控,选择性地进行短的直链醇和醛之间的相互转化,催化香气物质前体的合成。本文综述了醇脱氢酶家族在高等植物中对逆境的响应、木质素和香气物质合成方面的研究概况,以期为醇脱氢酶的深入研究提供参考。  相似文献

裂解多糖单加氧酶高效催化的研究进展   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
裂解多糖单加氧酶(lytic polysaccharide monooxygenases,LPMOs)是一类新发现的铜离子依赖性的氧化酶,常具有多种模块化组合,能够高效氧化降解生物质多糖.LPMOs的催化结构域为β三明治结构,活性中心含有一个铜离子.该酶的催化反应过程相对于糖苷水解酶类更加复杂,LPMOs结合底物后,首先要接受电子供体提供的电子,通过电子传递链传递给活性中心的Cu[Ⅱ],将其还原为Cu[Ⅰ],Cu[Ⅰ]结合并活化分子氧后,再氧化降解多糖链的糖苷键,生成氧化产物和非氧化产物.近年来的研究表明,在木质纤维素降解酶系中加入LPMOs能显著提高其对结晶纤维素的转化效率,因此LPMOs相关研究的深入开展可以拓展人们对其高效降解机制的认识,从而为高效降解酶系的复配以降低工业规模的生产成本等提供理论指导.本文综述了该领域相关研究的最新进展,分析了LPMOs潜在的研究方向与工业化应用的前景.  相似文献

Candidatus Methylomirabilis oxyfera” is a newly discovered anaerobic methanotroph that, surprisingly, oxidizes methane through an aerobic methane oxidation pathway. The second step in this aerobic pathway is the oxidation of methanol. In Gram-negative bacteria, the reaction is catalyzed by pyrroloquinoline quinone (PQQ)-dependent methanol dehydrogenase (MDH). The genome of “Ca. Methylomirabilis oxyfera” putatively encodes three different MDHs that are localized in one large gene cluster: one so-called MxaFI-type MDH and two XoxF-type MDHs (XoxF1 and XoxF2). MxaFI MDHs represent the canonical enzymes, which are composed of two PQQ-containing large (α) subunits (MxaF) and two small (β) subunits (MxaI). XoxF MDHs are novel, ecologically widespread, but poorly investigated types of MDHs that can be phylogenetically divided into at least five different clades. The XoxF MDHs described thus far are homodimeric proteins containing a large subunit only. Here, we purified a heterotetrameric MDH from “Ca. Methylomirabilis oxyfera” that consisted of two XoxF and two MxaI subunits. The enzyme was localized in the periplasm of “Ca. Methylomirabilis oxyfera” cells and catalyzed methanol oxidation with appreciable specific activity and affinity (Vmax of 10 μmol min−1 mg−1 protein, Km of 17 μM). PQQ was present as the prosthetic group, which has to be taken up from the environment since the known gene inventory required for the synthesis of this cofactor is lacking. The MDH from “Ca. Methylomirabilis oxyfera” is the first representative of type 1 XoxF proteins to be described.  相似文献

On the basis of crystal structures of the pyrroloquinoline quinone (PQQ) dependent enzymes methanol dehydrogenase (MDH) and soluble glucose dehydrogenase (s-GDH), different catalytic mechanisms have been proposed. However, several lines of biochemical and kinetic evidence are strikingly similar for both enzymes. To resolve this discrepancy, we have compared the structures of these enzymes in complex with their natural substrates in an attempt to bring them in line with a single reaction mechanism. In both proteins, PQQ is located in the center of the molecule near the axis of pseudo-symmetry. In spite of the absence of significant sequence homology, the overall binding of PQQ in the respective active sites is similar. Hydrogen bonding interactions are made with polar protein side chains in the plane of the cofactor, whereas hydrophobic stacking interactions are important below and above PQQ. One Arg side chain and one calcium ion are ligated to the ortho-quinone group of PQQ in an identical fashion in either active site, in agreement with their proposed catalytic function of polarizing the PQQ C5-O5 bond. The substrates are bound in a similar position above PQQ and within hydrogen bond distance of the putative general bases Asp297 (MDH) and His144 (s-GDH). On the basis of these similarities, we propose that MDH and s-GDH react with their substrates through an identical mechanism, comprising general base-catalyzed hydride transfer from the substrate to PQQ and subsequent tautomerization of the PQQ intermediate to reduced PQQ.  相似文献

Molecular dynamics (MD) simulations have been carried out to study the enzymatic mechanisms of quinoproteins, methanol dehydrogenase (MDH), and soluble glucose dehydrogenase (sGDH). The mechanisms of reduction of the orthoquinone cofactor (PQQ) of MDH and sGDH involve concerted base-catalyzed proton abstraction from the hydroxyl moiety of methanol or from the 1-hydroxyl of glucose, and hydride equivalent transfer from the substrate to the quinone carbonyl carbon C5 of PQQ. The products of methanol and glucose oxidation are formaldehyde and glucolactone, respectively. The immediate product of PQQ reduction, PQQH- [-HC5(O-)-C4(=O)-] and PQQH [-HC5(OH)-C4(=O)-] converts to the hydroquinone PQQH2 [-C5(OH)=C4(OH)-]. The main focus is on MD structures of MDH * PQQ * methanol, MDH * PQQH-, MDH * PQQH, sGDH * PQQ * glucose, sGDH * PQQH- (glucolactone, and sGDH * PQQH. The reaction PQQ-->PQQH- occurs with Glu 171-CO2- and His 144-Im as the base species in MDH and sGDH, respectively. The general-base-catalyzed hydroxyl proton abstraction from substrate concerted with hydride transfer to the C5 of PQQ is assisted by hydrogen-bonding to the C5=O by Wat1 and Arg 324 in MDH and by Wat89 and Arg 228 in sGDH. Asp 297-COOH would act as a proton donor for the reaction PQQH(-)-->PQQH, if formed by transfer of the proton from Glu 171-COOH to Asp 297-CO2- in MDH. For PQQH-->PQQH2, migration of H5 to the C4 oxygen may be assisted by a weak base like water (either by crystal water Wat97 or bulk solvent, hydrogen-bonded to Glu 171-CO2- in MDH and by Wat89 in sGDH).  相似文献

Extraction of cyclopropanol-inactivated methanol dehydrogenase (MDH) gave a mixture of two interconverting compounds. The same compounds could be prepared from 2,7,9-tricarboxy-1H-pyrrolo[2,3-f]quinoline-4,5-dione (PQQ) and cyclopropanol using a metal oxide (e.g. Ag2O) as a catalyst. Structure elucidation revealed that a C5 3-propanal adduct of PQQ is formed which is present in the extract as a diastereoisomeric mixture of the ring-closed form. Cyclopropanone gave an analogous product, while cyclopropylmethanol behaved as a substrate and was oxidized by the enzyme without ring-opening. From the work described, several arguments can be derived to reject the idea that inactivation proceeds via formation of a pair of free radicals. The mechanism probably consists of a concerted proton abstraction, rearrangement of the cyclopropoxy anion to a ring-opened carbanion and attack of the latter on the electrophilic C5 of PQQ. The measured rate of inactivation (3.7 s-1) is in agreement with such a mechanism. The role of the metal oxide and the enzyme in this process is the catalysis of the addition step and possibly a positioning of the reactants. As only a sole type of quinoprotein alcohol dehydrogenase becomes inhibited, the cyclopropane derivatives studied here can be regarded as mechanism-based inhibitors. The modified PQQ in cyclopropanone-inactivated MDH is fluorescent. A fluorescent intermediate was also observed in the catalytic cycle of MDH with methanol as a substrate. Its rate of formation and decay and the strongly decreased level of fluorescence in the presence of activator are in accordance with the view that the fluorescing species is the previously found oxidized-MDH.substrate (MDHox.S) complex. Since the decomposition of this complex requires activator and model studies have failed so far to mimic the enzyme, it seems that the combination of enzyme and activator is essential for the oxidation of the alcohol substrate.  相似文献

Methanol dehydrogenase (MDH) catalyzes the first step in methanol use by methylotrophic bacteria and the second step in methane conversion by methanotrophs. Gram-negative bacteria possess an MDH with pyrroloquinoline quinone (PQQ) as its catalytic center. This MDH belongs to the broad class of eight-bladed β propeller quinoproteins, which comprise a range of other alcohol and aldehyde dehydrogenases. A well-investigated MDH is the heterotetrameric MxaFI-MDH, which is composed of two large catalytic subunits (MxaF) and two small subunits (MxaI). MxaFI-MDHs bind calcium as a cofactor that assists PQQ in catalysis. Genomic analyses indicated the existence of another MDH distantly related to the MxaFI-MDHs. Recently, several of these so-called XoxF-MDHs have been isolated. XoxF-MDHs described thus far are homodimeric proteins lacking the small subunit and possess a rare-earth element (REE) instead of calcium. The presence of such REE may confer XoxF-MDHs a superior catalytic efficiency. Moreover, XoxF-MDHs are able to oxidize methanol to formate, rather than to formaldehyde as MxaFI-MDHs do. While structures of MxaFI- and XoxF-MDH are conserved, also regarding the binding of PQQ, the accommodation of a REE requires the presence of a specific aspartate residue near the catalytic site. XoxF-MDHs containing such REE-binding motif are abundantly present in genomes of methylotrophic and methanotrophic microorganisms and also in organisms that hitherto are not known for such lifestyle. Moreover, sequence analyses suggest that XoxF-MDHs represent only a small part of putative REE-containing quinoproteins, together covering an unexploited potential of metabolic functions.  相似文献

Abstract The grwoth of MTMl, a mutant of methylobacterium organophilum) blocked in the use of methanol as a carbon and energy source, was restored by addition of pyrroloquinoline quinone (PQQ) in the culture medium. No PQQ could be detected in crude medium. No PQQ could be of MTMl. Therefore, MTMl can be regarded as a mutant blocked in the biosynthesis of PQQ. Under the conditions of growth employed, growth rates of MTMl on methanol, comparable to those of the wild type, occured at a PQQ concentration of 1 μM. Since lower amounts of methanol dehydrogenase (MDH) wer found in cell-free extracts of PQQ-supplemented MTMl, the wild type strain synthesizes a surplus of MDH under these conditions. Growth of M. organophilum on ethanol proceeds via MDH as a catalyst for the first step, since (NAD(P) -dependent etanol. dehydrogenase was absent in cell-free extracts and growth of MTMl on ethanol only took place in the presence of PQQ. On the hand, growth of MTMl on mthylamine was unimpaired. This is in accordance with the fact that methylamine dehydrogenase was absent and N -methylamine mate dehydrogenase was present in cell-free extracts  相似文献

This review summarises our current understanding of two of the main types of quinoprotein dehydrogenase in which pyrroloquinoline quinone (PQQ) is the only prosthetic group. These are the soluble methanol dehydrogenase and the membrane glucose dehydrogenase (mGDH). The membrane GDH has an additional N-terminal domain by which it is tightly anchored to the membrane, and a periplasmic domain whose structure has been modelled on the X-ray structure of the alpha-subunit of MDH which contains PQQ in the active site. This review discusses their structures and mechanisms, concentrating particularly on the pathways for electron transfer from the reduced PQQ, through the protein, to their electron acceptors. In MDH, this is the specific cytochrome c(L), the electron transfer pathway probably involving the unique disulphide ring in the active site. By contrast, mGDH contains a permanently bound ubiquinone, which acts as a single electron carrier, mediating electron transfer through the protein to the membrane ubiquinone.  相似文献

Acid-treatment facilitates PQQ detection by electron ionization mass spectroscopy with a molecular ion at M/e 330 and a base ion formed by triple decarboxylation at M/e 198. Other ions found probably arise through acid-catalyzed tautomeric lactonization of PQQ to PQQ-lactone (PQQL) with subsequent oxidation of PQQL and reduction of PQQ. We propose that a carboxyl group, presumably the 9-carboxyl, attacks a double bond in PQQ, reversibly converting the 4,5-orthoquinone into an 4,5-enediol and forming an isomeric lactone, PQQL, of 330 daltons. The masking of carbonyls may explain the low reactivity of PQQ with carbonyl reagents in acid. Acid-promoted tautomeric lactonization with carbonyl-masking is known to occur with fluoresceins, phenolphthalein and other compounds, but has not been recognized before with PQQ. Acid-treated PQQ demonstrates molecular and other ions derived from reduced PQQ (PQQ(2H] or its lactone at M/e 332 with a base ion at M/e 200. There is compelling evidence for a dehydrogenated lactone, PQQ(-2H)L), at M/e 328 with a base ion at M/e 196. We suggest that PQQ, in tautomeric equilibrium with PQQL, oxidizes PQQL to PQQ(-2H)L (328 daltons), with its concurrent reduction to PQQ(2H) (332 daltons). With acidified D2O, PQQ shows deuterated products with ions at M/e values consistent with lactonization and oxidation-reduction. An analytically useful quinoxaline adduct, formed from PQQ and 2,3-diaminonaphthalene (PQQ-DAN) of 452 daltons, also undergoes acid-tautomerization-lactonization and oxidation-reduction similar to PQQ showing molecular ions at M/e 450, 452 and 454 and decarboxylation-derived strong (base) ions at M/e 318, 320 and 322.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)  相似文献

Two proteins specifically involved in methanol oxidation in the methylotrophic bacterium Methylobacterium extorquens have been modified by site-directed mutagenesis. Mutation of the proposed active site base (Asp303) to glutamate in methanol dehydrogenase (MDH) gave an active enzyme (D303E-MDH) with a greatly reduced affinity for substrate and with a lower activation energy. Results of kinetic and deuterium isotope studies showed that the essential mechanism in the mutant protein was unchanged, and that the step requiring activation by ammonia remained rate limiting. No spectrally detectable intermediates could be observed during the reaction. The X-ray structure, determined to 3 A resolution, of D303E-MDH showed that the position and coordination geometry of the Ca2+ ion in the active site was altered; the larger Glu303 side chain was coordinated to the Ca2+ ion and also hydrogen bonded to the O5 atom of pyrroloquinoline quinone (PQQ). The properties and structure of the D303E-MDH are consistent with the previous proposal that the reaction in MDH is initiated by proton abstraction involving Asp303, and that the mechanism involves a direct hydride transfer reaction. Mutation of the two adjacent cysteine residues that make up the novel disulfide ring in the active site of MDH led to an inactive enzyme, confirming the essential role of this remarkable ring structure. Mutations of cytochrome c(L), which is the electron acceptor from MDH was used to identify Met109 as the sixth ligand to the heme.  相似文献
