Abstract: | Flavoprotein monooxygenases are involved in a wide variety of biological processes including drug detoxification, biodegradation of aromatic compounds in the environment, biosynthesis of antibiotics and siderophores, and many others. The reactions use NAD(P)H and O2 as co-substrates and insert one atom of oxygen into the substrate. The flavin-dependent monooxygenases utilize a general cycle in which NAD(P)H reduces the flavin, and the reduced flavin reacts with O2 to form a C4a-(hydro)peroxyflavin intermediate, which is the oxygenating agent. This complicated catalytic process has diverse requirements that are difficult to be satisfied by a single site. Two general strategies have evolved to satisfy these requirements. para-Hydroxybenzoate hydroxylase, the paradigm for the single-component flavoprotein monooxygenases, is one of the most thoroughly studied of all enzymes. This enzyme undergoes significant protein and flavin dynamics during catalysis. There is an open conformation that gives access of substrate and product to solvent, and a closed or in conformation for the reaction with oxygen and the hydroxylation to occur. This closed form prevents solvent from destabilizing the hydroperoxyflavin intermediate. Finally, there is an out conformation achieved by movement of the isoalloxazine toward the solvent, which exposes its N5 for hydride delivery from NAD(P)H. The protein coordinates these dynamic events during catalysis. The second strategy uses a reductase to catalyze the reduction of the flavin and an oxygenase that uses the reduced flavin as a substrate to react with oxygen and hydroxylate the organic substrate. These two-component systems must be able to transfer reduced flavin from the reductase to the oxygenase and stabilize a C4a-peroxyflavin until a substrate binds to be hydroxylated, all before flavin oxidation and release of H2O2. Again, protein dynamics are important for catalytic success. |
