Free radical mechanisms in enzyme reactions 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Isao Yamazaki 《Free radical biology & medicine》1987,3(6):397-404
Free radicals are formed in prosthetic groups or amino acid residues of certain enzymes. These free radicals are closely related to the activation process in enzyme catalysis, but their formation does not always result in the formation of substrate free radicals as a product of the enzyme reactions. The role of free radicals in enzyme catalysis is discussed. 相似文献

From a gene bank of theAcinetobacter calcoaceticus genome a plasmid was isolated that complements four different classes of PQQ- mutants. Subclones of this plasmid revealed that the four corresponding PQQ genes are located on a fragment of 5 kilobases. The nucleotide sequence of this 5 kb fragment was determined and by means of Tn5 insertion mutants the reading frames of the PQQ genes could be identified. Three of the PQQ genes code for proteins of Mr 29700 (gene I), Mr 10800 (gene II) and Mr 43600 (gene III) respectively. In the DNA region where gene IV was mapped however the largest possible reading frame encodes for a polypeptide of only 24 amino acids. A possible role for this small polypeptide will be discussed. Finally we show that expression of the four PQQ genes inAcinetobacter lwoffi andEscherichia coli lead to the synthesis of the coenzyme in these organisms. 相似文献

Paracoccus denitrificans is able to grow on the C1 compounds methanol and methylamine. These compounds are oxidized to formaldehyde which is subsequently oxidized via formate to carbon dioxide. Biomass is produced by carbon dioxide fixation via the ribulose biphosphate pathway. The first oxidation reaction is catalyzed by the enzymes methanol dehydrogenase and methylamine dehydrogenase, respectively. Both enzymes contain two different subunits in an 22 configuration. The genes encoding the subunits of methanol dehydrogenase (moxF andmoxI) have been isolated and sequenced. They are located in one operon together with two other genes (moxJ andmoxG) in the gene ordermoxFJGI. The function of themoxJ gene product is not yet known.MoxG codes for a cytochromec
551i
, which functions as the electron acceptor of methanol dehydrogenase. Both methanol dehydrogenase and methylamine dehydrogenase contain PQQ as a cofactor. These so-called quinoproteins are able to catalyze redox reactions by one-electron steps. The reaction mechanism of this oxidation will be described. Electrons from the oxidation reaction are donated to the electron transport chain at the level of cytochromec. P. denitrificans is able to synthesize at least 10 differentc-type cytochromes. Five could be detected in the periplasm and five have been found in the cytoplasmic membrane. The membrane-bound cytochromec

552 and the periplasmic-located cytochromec
550 are present under all tested growth conditions. The cytochromesc

, present in the periplasm, are only induced in cells grown on methanol, methylamine, or choline. The otherc-type cytochromes are mainly detected either under oxygen limited conditions or under anaerobic conditions with nitrate as electron acceptor or under both conditions. An overview including the induction pattern of allP. denitrificans c-type cytochromes will be given. The genes encoding cytochromec

have been isolated and sequenced. By using site-directed mutagenesis these genes were mutated in the genome. The mutants thus obtained were used to study electron transport during growth on C1 compounds. This electron transport has also been studied by determining electron transfer rates inin vitro experiments. The exact pathways, however, are not yet fully understood.

Several genes have already been cloned and sequenced and a lot of mutants have been isolated.

The substrate specificity of enzyme system producing C6-aldehyde in Thea chloroplasts was clarified with an entire series of synthesized positional isomers, in which the position of cis-1, cis-4-pentadiene system varies from C-3 to C-13 in C18 fatty acid and geometrical isomers of linoleic acid. The structural requirement for the substrate of enzyme system producing C6-aldehyde is the presence of cis-1, cis-4-pentadiene system between ω-6 and ω-10. 相似文献

An integrated NAD+-dependent enzyme field-effect transistor (ENFET) device for the biosensing of lactate is described. The aminosiloxane-functionalized gate interface is modified with pyrroloquinoline quinone (PQQ) that acts as a catalyst for the oxidation of NADH. Synthetic amino-derivative of NAD+ is covalently linked to the PQQ monolayer. An affinity complex formed between the NAD+/PQQ-assembly and the NAD+-cofactor-dependent lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) is crosslinked and yields an integrated biosensor ENFET-device for the analysis of lactate. Biocatalyzed oxidation of lactate generates NADH that is oxidized by PQQ in the presence of Ca2+-ions. The reduced catalyst, PQQH2, is oxidized by O2 in a process that constantly regenerates PQQ at the gate interface. The biocatalyzed formation of NADH and the O2-stimulated regeneration of PQQ yield a steady-state pH gradient between the gate interface and the bulk solution. The changes in the pH of the solution near the gate interface and, consequently, the gate potential are controlled by the substrate (lactate) concentration in the solution. The device reveals the detection limit of 1 x 10(-4) M for lactate and the sensitivity of 24+/-2 mV dec(-1). The response time of the device is as low as 15 s. 相似文献

The quinone‐dependent alcohol dehydrogenase (PQQ‐ADH, E.C. 1.1.5.2) from the Gram‐negative bacterium Pseudogluconobacter saccharoketogenes IFO 14464 oxidizes primary alcohols (e.g. ethanol, butanol), secondary alcohols (monosaccharides), as well as aldehydes, polysaccharides, and cyclodextrins. The recombinant protein, expressed in Pichia pastoris, was crystallized, and three‐dimensional (3D) structures of the native form, with PQQ and a Ca2+ ion, and of the enzyme in complex with a Zn2+ ion and a bound substrate mimic were determined at 1.72 Å and 1.84 Å resolution, respectively. PQQ‐ADH displays an eight‐bladed β‐propeller fold, characteristic of Type I quinone‐dependent methanol dehydrogenases. However, three of the four ligands of the Ca2+ ion differ from those of related dehydrogenases and they come from different parts of the polypeptide chain. These differences result in a more open, easily accessible active site, which explains why PQQ‐ADH can oxidize a broad range of substrates. The bound substrate mimic suggests Asp333 as the catalytic base. Remarkably, no vicinal disulfide bridge is present near the PQQ, which in other PQQ‐dependent alcohol dehydrogenases has been proposed to be necessary for electron transfer. Instead an associated cytochrome c can approach the PQQ for direct electron transfer. 相似文献

Soybean lipoxygenase-1 was reinvestigated with respect to its quinoprotein nature. It has been reported previously that soybean lipoxygenase-1 contains pyrroloquinoline quinone as the organic cofactor [1]. Because spectroscopie data were found to be inconsistent [2] with the evidence presented in [1], we sought to reproduce the published data by carefully following the procedures described in [1] and supplementing them with new analytical results. The combined data lead us to conclude that soybean lipoxygenase-1 is not a quinoprotein. 相似文献

Summary The role of copper in bovine serum amine oxidase was investigated by studying the effect of copper-binding inhibitors on the reactions of the pyrroloquinoline quinone carbonyl and on the reaction with oxygen. Hydrazines and hydrazides were used as carbonyl reagents and one of the hydrazines, benzylhydrazine, which was found to behave as a pseudo-substrate, was used to probe the reaction with oxygen. The presence ofN,N-diethyldithiocarbamate, a chelator that binds copper irreversibly, did not prevent the reactions at the carbonyl, but slowed down their rate and modified the conformation of the adducts. The same happened to the reaction with oxygen, which was slowed down but not abolished. Copper, which was never seen in the reduced state, thus appears to control all reactions without being directly involved in the binding of either hydrazines or oxygen. The enzyme functionality was in fact preserved upon substitution of copper with cobalt. The specific activity of the cobalt-substituted enzyme was only reduced to about 40% the native amine oxidase value. This is the first case so far in which the role of copper can be performed by a different metal ion.Abbreviations BSAO

Cyclometalated 2-phenylpyridine complexes [RuII(o-C6H4-2-py)(LL)2]PF6, LL = 2,2′-bipyridine (1) and 1,10-phenanthroline (2) were resolved into Δ and Λ enantiomers using column chromatography on SP Sephadex C-25 in the presence of (+)-2,3-dibenzoyl-D-tartrate. The absolute configuration of enantiomers was established using circular dichroism spectroscopy. The rate constants ket for the electron transfer from reduced glucose oxidase (GO from Aspergillus niger) and PQQ-dependent glucose dehydrogenase (GDH) at the generated RuIII species were measured by cyclic voltammetry and UV–vis spectroscopy. The electron transfer shows enantioselectivity. In the case of GO, the bell-shaped pH profile for the ratio kΛ/kΔ has a maximum at pH 7 (kΛ/kΔ equals 3.4 and 3.9 for 1 and 2, respectively), but its inversion is observed at pH around 5 and 9. The kΛ/kΔ ratio equals 2.0 for 2 and GDH at pH 7. The results of theoretical modeling of biological electron transfer for GO using functional docking Monte-Carlo simulations are presented and analyzed together with the experimental observations. 相似文献
