Dehaloperoxidase (DHP) from the terebellid polychaete, Amphitrite ornata, is the first hemoglobin that has peroxidase activity as part of its native function. The substrate 2,4,6-tribromophenol (TBP) is oxidatively debrominated by DHP to form 2,6-dibromoquinone (DBQ) in a two-electron process. There is a well-defined internal binding site for TBP above the heme, a feature not observed in other hemoglobins or peroxidases. A study of the pH dependence of the activity of DHP reveals a substantial difference in mechanism. From direct observation of the Soret band of the heme it is shown that the pKa for heme activation in protein DHP is 6.5. Below this pH the heme absorbance decreases in the presence of H2O2 with or without addition of substrate. The low pH data are consistent with significant heme degradation. Above pH 6.5 addition of H2O2 causes the heme to shift rapidly to a compound II spectrum and then slowly to an unidentified intermediate with an absorbance of 410 nm. However, the pKa of the substrate TBP is 6.8 and the greatest enzyme activity is observed above the pKa of TBP under conditions where the substrate is a phenolate anion (TPBO-). Although the mechanisms may differ, the data show that both neutral TBP and anionic TPBO- are converted to the quinone product. The mechanistic implications of the pH dependence are discussed by comparison other known peroxidases, which oxidize substrates at the heme edge. 相似文献

Amphitrite ornata dehaloperoxidase (DHP) is a heme enzyme with a globin structure, which is capable of oxidizing para-halogenated phenols to the corresponding quinones. Cloning, high-level expression, and purification of recombinant DHP are described. Recombinant DHP was assayed by stopped-flow experiments for its ability to oxidatively debrominate 2,4,6-tribromophenol (TBP). The enzymatic activity of the ferric form of recombinant DHP is intermediate between that of a typical peroxidase (horseradish peroxidase) and a typical globin (horse heart myoglobin). The present study shows that, unlike other known peroxidases, DHP activity requires the addition of substrate, TBP, prior to the cosubstrate, peroxide. The presence of a substrate-binding site in DHP is consistent with a two-electron oxidation mechanism and an obligatory order for activation of the enzyme by addition of the substrate prior to the cosubstrate. 相似文献

The activation of dehaloperoxidase-hemoglobin (DHP) to form a ferryl intermediate requires the distal histidine, H55, to act as an acid base catalyst. The lack of ancillary amino acids in the distal pocket to assist in this process makes H55 even more important to the formation of active intermediates than in conventional peroxidases. Therefore, one can infer that the precise conformation H55 may greatly affect the enzymatic activity. Using site-direct mutagenesis at position T56, immediately adjacent to H55, we have confirmed that subtle changes in the conformation of H55 affect the catalytic efficiency of DHP. Mutating T56 to a smaller amino acid appears to permit H55 to rotate with relatively low barriers between conformations in the distal pocket, which may lead to an increase in catalytic activity. On the other hand, larger amino acids in the neighboring site appear to restrict the rotation of H55 due to the steric hindrance. In the case of T56V, which is an isosteric mutation, H55 appears less mobile, but forced to be closer to the heme iron than in wild type. Both proximity to the heme iron and flexibility of motion in some of the mutants can result in an increased catalytic rate, but can also lead to protein inactivation due to ligation of H55 to the heme iron, which is known as hemichrome formation. A balance of enzymatic rate and protein stability with respect to hemichrome formation appears to be optimum in wild type DHP (WT-DHP). 相似文献

The well-known and easily available horseradish peroxidase (HRP) catalyzes the H2O2-dependent oxidative 4-dechlorination of the pollutant 2,4,6-trichlorophenol, which is recalcitrant to many organisms except
those producing ligninases. UV-visible spectroscopy and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry identified the oxidized reaction
product as 2,6-dichloro-1,4-benzoquinone. NMR and IR spectroscopic data further supported the above characterization. Experimental
evidence for the elimination of HCl from the substrate was acquired by detecting the decrease in pH of the reaction mixture,
and by observing the presence of the β-chlorocyclopentadienone cation fragment in the mass spectrum of 2,6-dichloro-1,4-benzoquinone.
Consequently, nucleophilic attack by water on the 2,4,6-trichlorocyclohexadienone cation was proposed to give the final product.
Our results indicate an oxidative dechlorination pathway catalyzed by HRP for 2,4,6-trichlorophenol, similar to that by extracellular
lignin peroxidases. The relative catalytic efficiency of HRP seems higher than that of lignin peroxidases. The HRP-H2O2 catalytic system could be utilized in the degradation of polychlorinated phenols for industrial and biotechnological purposes.

The proximal side of dehaloperoxidase-hemoglobin A (DHP A) from Amphitrite ornata has been modified via site-directed mutagenesis of methionine 86 into aspartate (M86D) to introduce an Asp-His-Fe triad charge relay. X-ray crystallographic structure determination of the metcyano forms of M86D [Protein Data Bank (PDB) entry 3MYN ] and M86E (PDB entry 3MYM ) mutants reveal the structural origins of a stable catalytic triad in DHP A. A decrease in the rate of H(2)O(2) activation as well as a lowered reduction potential versus that of the wild-type enzyme was observed in M86D. One possible explanation for the significantly lower activity is an increased affinity for the distal histidine in binding to the heme Fe to form a bis-histidine adduct. Resonance Raman spectroscopy demonstrates a pH-dependent ligation by the distal histidine in M86D, which is indicative of an increased trans effect. At pH 5.0, the heme Fe is five-coordinate, and this structure resembles the wild-type DHP A resting state. However, at pH 7.0, the distal histidine appears to form a six-coordinate ferric bis-histidine (hemichrome) adduct. These observations can be explained by the effect of the increased positive charge on the heme Fe on the formation of a six-coordinate low-spin adduct, which inhibits the ligation and activation of H(2)O(2) as required for peroxidase activity. The results suggest that the proximal charge relay in peroxidases regulate the redox potential of the heme Fe but that the trans effect is a carefully balanced property that can both activate H(2)O(2) and attract ligation by the distal histidine. To understand the balance of forces that modulate peroxidase reactivity, we studied three M86 mutants, M86A, M86D, and M86E, by spectroelectrochemistry and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy of (13)C- and (15)N-labeled cyanide adducts as probes of the redox potential and of the trans effect in the heme Fe, both of which can be correlated with the proximity of negative charge to the N(δ) hydrogen of the proximal histidine, consistent with an Asp-His-Fe charge relay observed in heme peroxidases. 相似文献

Dehaloperoxidase (DHP) from the annelid Amphitrite ornata is a catalytically active hemoglobin-peroxidase that possesses a unique internal binding cavity in the distal pocket above the heme. The previously published crystal structure of DHP shows 4-iodophenol bound internally. This led to the proposal that the internal binding site is the active site for phenol oxidation. However, the native substrate for DHP is 2,4,6-tribromophenol, and all attempts to bind 2,4,6-tribromophenol in the internal site under physiological conditions have failed. Herein, we show that the binding of 4-halophenols in the internal pocket inhibits enzymatic function. Furthermore, we demonstrate that DHP has a unique two-site competitive binding mechanism in which the internal and external binding sites communicate through two conformations of the distal histidine of the enzyme, resulting in nonclassical competitive inhibition. The same distal histidine conformations involved in DHP function regulate oxygen binding and release during transport and storage by hemoglobins and myoglobins. This work provides further support for the hypothesis that DHP possesses an external binding site for substrate oxidation, as is typical for the peroxidase family of enzymes. 相似文献

Amphitrite ornata dehaloperoxidase (DHP) and Notomastus lobatus chloroperoxidase (NCPO) catalyze the peroxide-dependent dehalogenation of halophenols and halogenation of phenols, respectively. Both enzymes have histidine (His) as their proximal heme iron ligand. Crystallographic examination of DHP revealed that it has a globin fold [M.W. LaCount, E. Zhang, Y.-P. Chen, K. Han, M.M. Whitton, D.E. Lincoln, S.A. Woodin, L. Lebioda, J. Biol. Chem. 275 (2000) 18712-18716] and kinetics studies established that ferric DHP is the active state [R.L. Osborne, L.O. Taylor, K. Han, B. Ely, J.H. Dawson, Biochem. Biophys. Res. Commun. 324 (2004) 1194-1198]. NCPO likely has these same properties. Previous work with His-ligated heme proteins has revealed characteristic spectral distinctions between dioxygen binding globins and peroxide-activating peroxidases. Since DHP, and likely NCPO, is a peroxide-activating globin, we have sought to determine in the present investigation whether the ferric resting states of these two novel heme-containing enzymes are myoglobin-like or peroxidase-like. To do so, we have examined their exogenous ligand-free ferric states as well as their azide, imidazole and NO bound ferric adducts (and ferrous-NO complexes) with UV-Visible absorption and magnetic circular dichroism spectroscopy. We have also compared each derivative to the analogous states of horse heart myoglobin (Mb) and horseradish peroxidase (HRP). The spectra observed for parallel forms of DHP and NCPO are virtually identical to each other as well as to the spectra of the same Mb states, while being less similar to the spectra of corresponding HRP derivatives. From these data, we conclude that exogenous ligand-free ferric DHP and NCPO are six-coordinate with water and neutral His as ligands. This coordination structure is distinctly different from the ferric resting state of His-ligated peroxidases and indicates that DHP and NCPO do not activate bound peroxide through a mechanism dependent on a push effect imparted by a partially ionized proximal His as proposed for typical heme peroxidases. 相似文献

The study of axial ligation by anionic ligands to ferric heme iron by resonance Raman spectroscopy provides a basis for comparison of the intrinsic electron donor ability of the proximal histidine in horse heart myoglobin (HHMb), dehaloperoxidase (DHP), and horseradish peroxidase (HRP). DHP is a dimeric hemoglobin (Hb) originally isolated from the terebellid polychaete Amphitrite ornata. The monomers are structurally related to Mb and yet DHP has a peroxidase function. The core size marker modes, v2 and v3, were observed using Soret excitation, and DHP-X was compared to HHMb-X for the ligand series X = F, Cl, Br, SCN, OH, N3, and CN. Special attention was paid to the hydroxide adduct, which is also formed during the catalytic cycle of peroxidases. The Fe-OH stretching frequency was observed and confirmed by deuteration and is higher in DHP than in HHMb. The population of high-spin states of the heme iron in DHP was determined to be intermediate between HHMb and HRP. The data provide the first direct measurement of the effect of axial ligation on the heme iron in DHP. The Raman data support a modified charge relay in DHP, in which a strongly hydrogen-bonded backbone carbonyl (>C=O) polarizes the proximal histidine. The charge relay mechanism by backbone carbonyl >C=O-His-Fe is the analogue of the Asp-His-Fe of peroxidases and Glu-His-Fe of flavohemoglobins. 相似文献

Dehaloperoxidase (DHP), discovered in the marine terebellid polychaete Amphitrite ornata, is the first heme-containing globin with a peroxidase activity. The sequence and crystal structure of DHP argue that it evolved from an ancient O(2) transport and storage globin. Thus, DHP retains an oxygen carrier function but also has the ability to degrade halophenol toxicants in its living environment. Sperm whale myoglobin (Mb) in the ferric state has a peroxidase activity ~10 times lower than that of DHP. The catalytic activity enhancement observed in DHP appears to have been generated mainly by subtle changes in the positions of the proximal and distal histidine residues that appeared during DHP evolution. Herein, we report investigations into the mechanism of action of DHP derived from examination of "peroxidase-like" Mb mutants and "Mb-like" DHP mutants. The dehalogenation ability of wild-type Mb is augmented in the peroxidase-like Mb mutants (F43H/H64L, G65T, and G65I Mb) but attenuated in the Mb-like T56G DHP variant. X-ray crystallographic data show that the distal His residues in G65T Mb and G65I are positioned ~0.3 and ~0.8 ?, respectively, farther from the heme iron compared to that in the wild-type protein. The H93K/T95H double mutant Mb with the proximal His shifted to the "DHP-like" position has an increased peroxidase activity. In addition, a better dehaloperoxidase (M86E DHP) was generated by introducing a negative charge near His89 to enhance the imidazolate character of the proximal His. Finally, only minimal differences in dehalogenation activities are seen among the exogenous ligand-free DHP, the acetate-bound DHP, and the distal site blocker L100F DHP mutant. Thus, we conclude that binding of halophenols in the internal binding site (i.e., distal cavity) is not essential for catalysis. This work provides a foundation for a new structure-function paradigm for peroxidases and for the molecular evolution of the dual-function enzyme DHP. 相似文献

Laccase from the white rot fungus Coriolus versicolor was immobilized on Celite R-637 by covalent binding with glutaraldehyde. After a sharp primary decline in activity (up to 50%), the retained enzyme activity was stable over a storage period of 33 days at 4 degrees C. A comparative study of soluble and immobilized laccases revealed the increased resistance of immobilized enzyme to the unfavourable effects of alkaline pH, high temperature and the action of inhibitors. A combination of these properties of immobilized laccase resulted in the ability to oxidize 2,4,6-trichlorophenol (2,4,6-TCP) at 50 degrees C at pH 7.0. The reactions of soluble and immobilized laccase with 2,4,6-TCP were examined in the presence and absence of redox mediators. 3,5-Dichlorocatechol, 2,6-dichloro-1,4-benzoquinone and 2,6-dichloro-1,4-hydroquinone were found to be the primary products of 2,4,6-TCP oxidation by laccase; oligo- and polymeric compounds were also found. 相似文献

The heme-containing respiratory protein, myoglobin (Mb), best known for oxygen storage, can exhibit peroxidase-like activity under conditions of oxidative stress. Under such circumstances, the initially formed ferric state can react with H2O2 (or other peroxides) to generate a long-lived ferryl [Fe(IV)=O] Compound II (Cpd II) heme intermediate that is capable of oxidizing a variety of biomolecules. In this study, the ability of Mb Cpd II to catalyze the oxidation of carcinogenic halophenols is demonstrated. Specifically, 2,4,6-trichlorophenol (TCP) is converted to 2,6-dichloro-1,4-benzoquinone in a H2O2-dependent process. The fact that Mb Cpd II is an active oxidant in halophenol dehalogenation is consistent with a traditional peroxidase order of addition of H2O2 followed by TCP. With 4-chlorophenol, a dimerized product is formed, consistent with a mechanism involving generation of a reactive phenoxy radical intermediate by an electron transfer process. The radical nature of this process may be physiologically relevant since recent studies have revealed that phenoxy radicals and electrophilic quinones, specifically of the type described herein, covalently bind to DNA [Dai, J., Sloat, A. L., Wright, M. W., and Manderville, R. A. (2005) Chem. Res. Toxicol. 18, 771-779]. Thus, the stability of Mb Cpd II and its ability to oxidize TCP may explain why such compounds are carcinogenic. Furthermore, the initial rate of dehalogenation catalyzed by Mb Cpd II is nearly comparable to that of the same reaction carried out by turnover of the ferric state, demonstrating the potential physiological danger of this long-lived, high-valent intermediate. 相似文献

The full-length, protein coding sequence for dehaloperoxidase was obtained using a reverse genetic approach and a cDNA library from marine worm Amphitrite ornata. The crystal structure of the dehaloperoxidase (DHP) was determined by the multiple isomorphous replacement method and was refined at 1.8-A resolution. The enzyme fold is that of the globin family and, together with the amino acid sequence information, indicates that the enzyme evolved from an ancient oxygen carrier. The peroxidase activity of DHP arose mainly through changes in the positions of the proximal and distal histidines relative to those seen in globins. The structure of a complex of DHP with 4-iodophenol is also reported, and it shows that in contrast to larger heme peroxidases DHP binds organic substrates in the distal cavity. The binding is facilitated by the histidine swinging in and out of the cavity. The modeled position of the oxygen atom bound to the heme suggests that the enzymatic reaction proceeds via direct attack of the oxygen atom on the carbon atom bound to the halogen atom. 相似文献

Dehaloperoxidase (DHP) from Amphitrite ornata, having been shown to catalyze the hydrogen peroxide-dependent oxidation of trihalophenols to dihaloquinones, is the first oxygen binding globin that possesses a biologically relevant peroxidase activity. The catalytically competent species in DHP appears to be Compound ES, a reactive intermediate that contains both a ferryl heme and a tyrosyl radical. By simulating the EPR spectra of DHP activated by H2O2, Thompson et al. (Thompson, M. K., Franzen, S., Ghiladi, R. A., Reeder, B. J., and Svistunenko, D. A. (2010) J. Am. Chem. Soc. 132, 17501–17510) proposed that two different radicals, depending on the pH, are formed, one located on either Tyr-34 or Tyr-28 and the other on Tyr-38. To provide additional support for these simulation-based assignments and to deduce the role(s) that tyrosyl radicals play in DHP, stopped-flow UV-visible and rapid-freeze-quench EPR spectroscopic methods were employed to study radical formation in DHP when three tyrosine residues, Tyr-28, Tyr-34, and Tyr-38, were replaced either individually or in combination with phenylalanines. The results indicate that radicals form on all three tyrosines in DHP. Evidence for the formation of DHP Compound I in several tyrosine mutants was obtained. Variants that formed Compound I showed an increase in the catalytic rate for substrate oxidation but also an increase in heme bleaching, suggesting that the tyrosines are necessary for protecting the enzyme from oxidizing itself. This protective role of tyrosines is likely an evolutionary adaptation allowing DHP to avoid self-inflicted damage in the oxidative environment. 相似文献

A group of 26 2,6-dimethyl-3,5-disubstituted and 2,6-dimethyl-3,4, 5-trisubstituted-1,4-dihydropyridines (1,4-H(2)Py=1,4-DHPs) and five related pyridines were studied as inhibitors of rat liver mitochondrial swelling and O(2) uptake by ascorbic acid-dependent lipid peroxidation (LP) and as modulators of mitochondrial swelling induced by Na(+)-linoleate or Na(+)-pyrophosphate. 1,4-DHPs studied include 4-unsubstituted and 4-methyl- and 4-phenyl-substituted 3, 5-dialkoxycarbonylderivatives of 2,6-dimethyl-1,4-DHP with variations in alkoxy chain length and composition, 4-unsubstituted and 4-methyl-, 4-aryl- and 4-pyridyl-substituted 3, 5-dianilidocarbonylderivatives, and a structurally related group of 3,5-dipyridylamidocarbonylderivatives. Many 1,4-DHPs possess marked antioxidant (AO) and membrane stabilizing activity, expressed as the mitochondrial swelling (deltaA(520)/t) and/or O(2) uptake rate decrease (V(0)/V) as well as prolongation of the induction period (tau/tau(0)) of mitochondrial swelling and/or O(2) uptake at ascorbic acid-dependent LP of rat liver mitochondria. 4-Unsubstituted 3,5-dialkoxycarbonyl-2,6-dimethyl-1,4-DHPs, as well as 4-unsubstituted or those possessing lipophylic 4-aryl- groups 3, 5-diamido-2,6-dimethyl-1,4-DHPs, reveal marked AO and membrane stabilizing properties. Oxidized (heteroaromatized) derivatives have minimal activity. Perhaps 1,4-DHPs preferably act as antioxidants on stages of initiation and prolongation of LP chain reactions at low concentrations: IC(50) (when V(0)/V or tau/tau(0)=2) are 0.1 microM to 100 microM. At 100 microM 3,5-di-p-hydroxyphenoxycarbonyl- and 3, 5-di-p-tolyloxycarbonyl-2,6-dimethyl-1,4-DHPs, as well as 3, 5-diethoxycarbonyl-2,6-dimethylpyridine (oxidized form of Hantzsch ester) and 3,5-diamyloxycarbonyl-2,6-dimethylpyridine, alter the mitochondrial swelling rate in the presence of natural protonophore Na(+)-linoleate (0.063 mM and 0.125 mM). 3,5-Di-n-butyloxycarbonyl-2, 6-dimethyl-1,4-DHP at 100 microM completely stops mitochondrial swelling in the presence of 0.8 mM Na(+)-pyrophosphate. In the presence of many of the 1,4-DHPs, the lipid peroxidation process was inhibited. However, the swelling process could be prolonged, promoted, accelerated or inhibited-depending on 1,4-DHPs structure, concentration, the type of initiators of the swelling process and the medium composition. 相似文献

The coelomic hemoglobin of Amphitrite ornata, termed dehaloperoxidase (DHP), is the first known multifunctional catalytic globin to possess biologically-relevant peroxidase and peroxygenase activities. Although the two isoenzymes of DHP, A and B, differ in sequence by only 5 amino acids out of 137 residues, DHP B consistently exhibits a greater activity than isoenzyme A. To delineate the contributions of each amino acid substitution to the activity of either isoenzyme, the substitutions of the five amino acids were systematically investigated, individually and in combination, using 22 mutants. Biochemical assays and mechanistic studies demonstrated that the mutants that only contained the I9L substitution showed increased i) kcat values (peroxidase activity), ii) 5-Br-indole conversion and binding affinity (peroxygenase activity), and iii) rate of Compound ES formation (enzyme activation). Whereas the X-ray structures of the oxyferrous forms of DHP B (L9I) (1.96 Å), DHP A (I9L) (1.20 Å), and WT DHP B (1.81 Å) showed no significant differences, UV–visible spectroscopy (ASoret/A380 ratio) revealed that the I9L substitution increased the 5-coordinate high-spin heme population characterized by the “open” conformation (i.e., distal histidine swung out of the pocket), which likely favors substrate binding. The positioning of the distal histidine closer to the heme cofactor in the solution state also appears to facilitate activation of DHP via the Compound ES intermediate. Taken together, the studies undertaken here shed light on the structure-function relationship in dehaloperoxidase, but also help to establish the foundation for understanding how enzymatic activity can be tuned in isoenzymes of a multifunctional catalytic globin. 相似文献

Transformation of 2,4,6-trichlorophenol by the white rot fungi Panus tigrinus and Coriolus versicolor 总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7
The toxicity of thirteen isomers of mono-, di-, tri- and pentachlorophenols was tested in potato-dextrose agar cultures of the white rot fungi Panus tigrinus and Coriolus versicolor. 2,4,6-Trichlorophenol (2,4,6-TCP) was chosen for further study of its toxicity and transformation in liquid cultures of these fungi. Two schemes of 2,4,6-TCP addition were tested to minimize its toxic effect to fungal cultures: stepwise addition from the moment of inoculation and single addition after five days of growth. In both cases the ligninolytic enzyme systems of both fungi were found to be responsible for 2,4,6-TCP transformation. 2,6-Dichloro-1,4-hydroquinol and 2,6-dichloro-1,4-benzoquinone were found as products of primary oxidation of 2,4,6-TCP by intact fungal cultures and purified ligninolytic enzymes, Mn-peroxidases and laccases of both fungi. However, primary attack of 2,4,6-TCP in P. tigrinus culture was conducted mainly by Mn-peroxidase, while in C. versicolor it was catalyzed predominantly by laccase, suggesting a different mode of regulation of these enzymes in the two fungi. 相似文献

Manganese peroxidase (MnP) oxidized 1-(3,5-dimethoxy-4-hydroxyphenyl)-2-(4-(hydroxymethyl)-2-methoxyphenoxy) -1,3-dihydroxypropane (I) in the presence of MnII and H2O2 to yield 1-(3,5-dimethoxy-4-hydroxyphenyl)- 2-(4-(hydroxymethyl)-2-methoxyphenoxy)-1-oxo-3-hydroxypropane (II), 2,6-dimethoxy-1,4-benzoquinone (III), 2,6-dimethoxy-1,4-dihydroxybenzene (IV), 2-(4-(hydroxymethyl)-2-methoxyphenoxy)-3-hydroxypropanal (V), syringaldehyde (VI), vanillyl alcohol (VII), and vanillin (VIII). MnP oxidized II to yield 2,6-dimethoxy-1,4-benzoquinone (III), 2,6-dimethoxy-1,4-dihydroxybenzene (IV), vanillyl alcohol (VII), vanillin (VIII), syringic acid (IX), and 2-(4-(hydroxymethyl)-2-methoxyphenoxy)-3-hydroxypropanoic acid (X). A chemically prepared MnIII-malonate complex catalyzed the same reactions. Oxidation of I and II in H2(18)O under argon resulted in incorporation of one atom of 18O into the quinone III and into the hydroquinone IV. Incorporation of one atom of oxygen from H2(18)O into syringic acid (IX) and the phenoxypropanoic acid X was also observed in the oxidation of II. These results are explained by mechanisms involving the initial one-electron oxidation of I or II by enzyme-generated MnIII to produce a phenoxy radical. This intermediate is further oxidized by MnIII to a cyclohexadienyl cation. Loss of a proton, followed by rearrangement of the quinone methide intermediate, yields the C alpha-oxo dimer II as the major product from substrate I. Alternatively, cyclohexadienyl cations are attacked by water. Subsequent alkyl-phenyl cleavage yields the hydroquinone IV and the phenoxypropanal V from I, and IV and the phenoxypropanoic acid X from II, respectively. The initial phenoxy radical also can undergo C alpha-C beta bond cleavage, yielding syringaldehyde (VI) and a C6-C2-ether radical from I and syringic acid (IX) and the same C6-C2-ether radical from II. The C6-C2-ether radical is scavenged by O2 or further oxidized by MnIII, subsequently leading to release of vanillyl alcohol (VII). VII and IV are oxidized to vanillin (VIII) and the quinone III, respectively. 相似文献

The flavin cofactor within cellobiose dehydrogenase (CDH) was found to be responsible for the reduction of all electron acceptors tested. This includes cytochrome c, the reduction of which has been reported to be by the reduced heme of CDH. The heme group was shown to affect the reactivity and activation energy with respect to individual electron acceptors, but the heme group was not involved in the direct transfer of electrons to substrate. A complicated interaction was found to exist between the flavin and heme of cellobiose dehydrogenase. The addition of electron acceptors was shown to increase the rate of flavin reduction and the electron transfer rate between the flavin and heme. All electron acceptors tested appeared to be reduced by the flavin domain. The addition of ferric iron eliminated the flavin radical present in reduced CDH, as detected by low temperature ESR spectroscopy, while it increased the flavin radical ESR signal in the independent flavin domain, more commonly referred to as cellobiose:quinone oxidoreductase (CBQR). Conversely, no radical was detected with either CDH or CBQR upon the addition of methyl-1,4-benzoquinone. Similar reaction rates and activation energies were determined for methyl-1,4-benzoquinone with both CDH and CBQR, whereas the rate of iron reduction by CDH was five times higher than by CBQR, and its activation energy was 38 kJ/mol lower than that of CBQR. Oxygen, which may be reduced by either one or two electrons, was found to behave like a two-electron acceptor. Superoxide production was found only upon the inclusion of iron. Additionally, information is presented indicating that the site of substrate reduction may be in the cleft between the flavin and heme domains. 相似文献

Quinone reductase activity of azoreductase AZR from Rhodobacter sphaeroides was reported. High homologies were found in the cofactor/substrate-binding regions of quinone reductases from different domains. 3D structure comparison revealed that AZR shared a common overall topology with mammal NAD(P)H/quinone oxidoreductase NQO1. With menadione as substrate, the optimal pH value and temperature were pH 8-9 and 50 degrees C, respectively. Following the ping-pong kinetics, AZR transferred two electrons from NADPH to quinone substrate. It could reduce naphthoquinones and anthraquinones, such as menadione, lawsone, anthraquinone-2-sulfonate, and anthraquinone-2,6-disulfonate. However, no activity was detected with 1,4-benzoquinone. Dicoumarol competitively inhibited AZR's quinone reductase activity with respect to NADPH, with an obtained K (i) value of 87.6 muM. Significantly higher survival rates were obtained in Escherichia coli YB overexpressing AZR than in the control strain when treated by heat shock and oxidative stressors such as H(2)O(2) and menadione. 相似文献

Phlebia radiatatransformed 2,4,6-trinitrotoluene (TNT), as well as its first reduction products, the aminodinitrotoluenes, into 4-hydroxylamino-2,6-dinitrotoluene (4-OHA-2,6-DNT) and 4-amino-2,6-dinitrotoluene (4-A-2,6-DNT). No extracellular peroxidases were involved in this step. The ligninolytic extracellular fluid, assumed to contain peroxidases, did not reduce TNT. However, ligninolytic peroxidases are implicated in the transformation of the first reduction products of TNT. 相似文献
