The regulatory Ni-Fe hydrogenase (RH) from Ralstonia eutropha which forms a [HoxBC]2 complex functions as a hydrogen sensor under aerobic conditions. We have studied a novel Strep-tag isolate of the RH large subunit, HoxC(ST), which lacks the Fe-S clusters of HoxB, allowing for structure determination of the catalytic site by X-ray absorption spectroscopy both at the Ni and, for the first time, also at the Fe K-edge. This technique, together with Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, revealed a Ni-Fe site with [O1(CysS)2Ni(II)(mu-SCys)2Fe(II)(CN)2(CO)] structure in about 50% of HoxC(ST) and a [(CysS)2Fe(II)(CN)2(CO)] site lacking Ni in the remainder protein. Possibly both sites may be intermediates in the maturation process of the RH. 相似文献

The complexation of molybdate with the nucleotides adenosine-5'-monophosphate (5'-AMP), adenosine-3'-monophosphate (3'-AMP) and guanosine-5'-monophosphate (5'-GMP) has been investigated by (1)H and (31)P NMR and Mo K-edge X-ray absorption near edge (XANES) and extended X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) spectroscopy. Acidification of aqueous solutions containing molybdate and each of the nucleotides resulted in the formation of a single species characterized by (1)H resonances which are deshielded relative to those of free nucleotide. Analysis of the two-component systems indicated a Mo/nucleotide ratio of 2.5:1 for the complexation species. White compounds, characterized as Na(2)[Mo(5)O(15)(HB)(2)] (B=5'-AMP, 5'-GMP), have been isolated from the acidified molybdate/H(2)B solutions. Dissolution in D(2)O replicates the NMR spectra of the solution species observed prior to precipitation. Solution and solid state Mo K-edge XAS and EXAFS spectroscopy of Na(2)[Mo(5)O(15)(HAMP)(2)] and Na(6)[Mo(5)O(15)(PO(4))(2)] provide convincing evidence for the presence of a pentamolybdodiphosphate core in the molybdate-nucleotide complexes in both the solid and solution states. 相似文献

[NiFe] hydrogenases contain a highly conserved histidine residue close to the [NiFe] active site which is altered by a glutamine residue in the H(2)-sensing [NiFe] hydrogenases. In this study, we exchanged the respective glutamine residue of the H(2) sensor (RH) of Ralstonia eutropha, Q67 of the RH large subunit HoxC, by histidine, asparagine and glutamate. The replacement by histidine and asparagine resulted in slightly unstable RH proteins which were hardly affected in their regulatory and enzymatic properties. The exchange to glutamate led to a completely unstable RH protein. The purified wild-type RH and the mutant protein with the Gln/His exchange were analysed by continuous-wave and pulsed electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) techniques. We observed a coupling of a nitrogen nucleus with the [NiFe] active site for the mutant protein which was absent in the spectrum of the wild-type RH. A combination of theoretical calculations with the experimental data provided an explanation for the observed coupling. It is shown that the coupling is due to the formation of a weak hydrogen bond between the protonated N(epsilon) nucleus of the histidine with the sulfur of a conserved cysteine residue which coordinates the metal atoms of the [NiFe] active site as a bridging ligand. The effect of this hydrogen bond on the local structure of the [NiFe] active site is discussed. 相似文献

The regulatory Ni-Fe hydrogenase (RH) from Ralstonia eutropha functions as a hydrogen sensor. The RH consists of the large subunit HoxC housing the Ni-Fe active site and the small subunit HoxB containing Fe-S clusters. The heterolytic cleavage of H(2) at the Ni-Fe active site leads to the EPR-detectable Ni-C state of the protein. For the first time, the simultaneous but EPR-invisible reduction of Fe-S clusters during Ni-C state formation was demonstrated by changes in the UV-visible absorption spectrum as well as by shifts of the iron K-edge from x-ray absorption spectroscopy in the wild-type double dimeric RH(WT) [HoxBC](2) and in a monodimeric derivative designated RH(stop) lacking the C-terminal 55 amino acids of HoxB. According to the analysis of iron EXAFS spectra, the Fe-S clusters of HoxB pronouncedly differ from the three Fe-S clusters in the small subunits of crystallized standard Ni-Fe hydrogenases. Each HoxBC unit of RH(WT) seems to harbor two [2Fe-2S] clusters in addition to a 4Fe species, which may be a [4Fe-3S-3O] cluster. The additional 4Fe-cluster was absent in RH(stop). Reduction of Fe-S clusters in the hydrogen sensor RH may be a first step in the signal transduction chain, which involves complex formation between [HoxBC](2) and tetrameric HoxJ protein, leading to the expression of the energy converting Ni-Fe hydrogenases in R. eutropha. 相似文献

Molecular features that allow certain [NiFe] hydrogenases to catalyze the conversion of molecular hydrogen (H(2)) in the presence of dioxygen (O(2)) were investigated. Using X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS), we compared the [NiFe] active site and FeS clusters in the O(2)-tolerant membrane-bound hydrogenase (MBH) of Ralstonia eutropha and the O(2)-sensitive periplasmic hydrogenase (PH) of Desulfovibrio gigas. Fe-XAS indicated an unusual complement of iron-sulfur centers in the MBH, likely based on a specific structure of the FeS cluster proximal to the active site. This cluster is a [4Fe4S] cubane in PH. For MBH, it comprises less than ~2.7 ? Fe-Fe distances and additional longer vectors of ≥3.4 ?, consistent with an Fe trimer with a more isolated Fe ion. Ni-XAS indicated a similar architecture of the [NiFe] site in MBH and PH, featuring Ni coordination by four thiolates of conserved cysteines, i.e., in the fully reduced state (Ni-SR). For oxidized states, short Ni-μO bonds due to Ni-Fe bridging oxygen species were detected in the Ni-B state of the MBH and in the Ni-A state of the PH. Furthermore, a bridging sulfenate (CysSO) is suggested for an inactive state (Ni(ia)-S) of the MBH. We propose that the O(2) tolerance of the MBH is mainly based on a dedicated electron donation from a modified proximal FeS cluster to the active site, which may favor formation of the rapidly reactivated Ni-B state instead of the slowly reactivated Ni-A state. Thereby, the catalytic activity of the MBH is facilitated in the presence of both H(2) and O(2). 相似文献

The biosynthesis of [NiFe] hydrogenases is a complex process that requires the function of the Hyp proteins HypA, HypB, HypC, HypD, HypE, HypF, and HypX for assembly of the H(2)-activating [NiFe] site. In this study we examined the maturation of the regulatory hydrogenase (RH) of Ralstonia eutropha. The RH is a H(2)-sensing [NiFe] hydrogenase and is required as a constituent of a signal transduction chain for the expression of two energy-linked [NiFe] hydrogenases. Here we demonstrate that the RH regulatory activity was barely affected by mutations in hypA, hypB, hypC, and hypX and was not substantially diminished in hypD- and hypE-deficient strains. The lack of HypF, however, resulted in a 90% decrease of the RH regulatory activity. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and the incorporation of (63)Ni into the RH from overproducing cells revealed that the assembly of the [NiFe] active site is dependent on all Hyp functions, with the exception of HypX. We conclude that the entire Hyp apparatus (HypA, HypB, HypC, HypD, HypE, and HypF) is involved in an efficient incorporation of the [NiFe] center into the RH. 相似文献

In proteobacteria capable of H(2) oxidation under (micro)aerobic conditions, hydrogenase gene expression is often controlled in response to the availability of H(2). The H(2)-sensing signal transduction pathway consists of a heterodimeric regulatory [NiFe]-hydrogenase (RH), a histidine protein kinase and a response regulator. To gain insights into the signal transmission from the Ni-Fe active site in the RH to the histidine protein kinase, conserved amino acid residues in the L0 motif near the active site of the RH large subunit of Ralstonia eutropha H16 were exchanged. Replacement of the strictly conserved Glu13 (E13N, E13L) resulted in loss of the regulatory, H(2)-oxidizing and D(2)/H(+) exchange activities of the RH. According to EPR and FTIR analysis, these RH derivatives contained fully assembled [NiFe] active sites, and para-/ortho-H(2) conversion activity showed that these centres were still able to bind H(2). This indicates that H(2) binding at the active site is not sufficient for the regulatory function of H(2) sensors. Replacement of His15, a residue unique in RHs, by Asp restored the consensus of energy-linked [NiFe]-hydrogenases. The respective RH mutant protein showed only traces of H(2)-oxidizing activity, whereas its D(2)/H(+)-exchange activity and H(2)-sensing function were almost unaffected. H(2)-dependent signal transduction in this mutant was less sensitive to oxygen than in the wild-type strain. These results suggest that H(2) turnover is not crucial for H(2) sensing. It may even be detrimental for the function of the H(2) sensor under high O(2) concentrations. 相似文献

The sulfur K-edge extended X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) spectroscopy is applied to homoleptic thiolato complexes with Zn(II) and Cd(II), (Et(4)N)[Zn(SAd)(3)] (1), (Et(4)N)(2)[{Zn(ScHex)(2)}(2)(mu-ScHex)(2)] (2), (Et(4)N)(2)[{Cd(ScHex)(2)}(2)(mu-ScHex)(2)] (3), (Et(4)N)(2)[{Cd(ScHex)}(4)(mu-ScHex)(6)] (4), [Zn(mu-SAd)(2)](n) (5), and [Cd(mu-SAd)(2)](n) (6) (HSAd=1-adamantanethiol, HScHex=cyclohexanethiol). The EXAFS results are consistent with the X-ray crystal data of 1-4. The structures of 5 and 6, which have not been determined by X-ray crystallography, are proposed to be polynuclear structures on the basis of the sulfur K-edge EXAFS, far-IR spectra, and elemental analysis. Clear evidences of the S...S interactions (between bridging atoms or neighboring sulfur atoms) and the S...C(far) interactions (in which C(far) atom is next to carbon atom directly bonded to sulfur atom) were observed in the EXAFS data for all complexes and thus lead to the reliable determination of the structures of 5 and 6 in combination with conventional zinc K-edge EXAFS analysis for 5. This new methodology, sulfur K-edge EXAFS, could be applied for the structural determination of in vivo metalloproteins as well as inorganic compounds. 相似文献

An X-ray absorption spectroscopic study of structural changes occurring at the Ni site of Chromatium vinosum hydrogenase during reductive activation, CO binding, and photolysis is presented. Structural details of the Ni sites for the ready silent intermediate state, SI(r), and the carbon monoxide complex, SI-CO, are presented for the first time in any hydrogenase. Analysis of nickel K-edge energy shifts in redox-related samples reveals that reductive activation is accompanied by an oscillation in the electron density of the Ni site involving formally Ni(III) and Ni(II), where all the EPR-active states (forms A, B, and C) are formally Ni(III), and the EPR-silent states are formally Ni(II). Analysis of XANES shows that the Ni site undergoes changes in the coordination number and geometry that are consistent with five-coordinate Ni sites in forms A, B, and SI(u); distorted four-coordinate sites in SI(r) and R; and a six-coordinate Ni site in form C. EXAFS analysis reveals that the loss of a short Ni-O bond accounts for the change in coordination number from five to four that accompanies formation of SI(r). A shortening of the Ni-Fe distance from 2.85(5) A in form B to 2.60(5) A also occurs at the SI level and is thus associated with the loss of the bridging O-donor ligand in the active site. Multiple-scattering analysis of the EXAFS data for the SI-CO complex reveals the presence of Ni-CO ligation, where the CO is bound in a linear fashion appropriate for a terminal ligand. The putative role of form C in binding H(2) or H(-) was examined by comparing the XAS data from form C with that of its photoproduct, form L. The data rule out the suggestion that the increase in charge density on the NiFe active site that accompanies the photoprocess results in a two-electron reduction of the Ni site [Ni(III) --> Ni(I)] [Happe, R. P., Roseboom, W., and Albracht, S. P. J. (1999) Eur. J. Biochem. 259, 602-608]; only subtle structural differences between the Ni sites were observed. 相似文献

An EXAFS study of the interaction of substrate with the ferric active site of protocatechuate 3,4-dioxygenase 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
X-ray crystallographic studies of the intradiol cleaving protocatechuate 3,4-dioxygenase from Pseudomonas aeruginosa have shown that the enzyme has a trigonal bipyramidal ferric active site with two histidines, two tyrosines, and a solvent molecule as ligands [Ohlendorf, D.H., Lipscomb, J.D., & Weber, P.C. (1988) Nature 336, 403-405]. Fe K-edge EXAFS studies of the spectroscopically similar protocatechuate 3,4-dioxygenase from Brevibacterium fuscum are consistent with a pentacoordinate geometry of the iron active site with 3 O/N ligands at 1.90 A and 2 O/N ligands at 2.08 A. The 2.08-A bonds are assigned to the two histidines, while the 1.90-A bonds are associated with the two tyrosines and the coordinated solvent. The short Fe-O distance for the solvent suggests that it coordinates as hydroxide rather than water. When the inhibitor terephthalate is bound to the enzyme, the XANES data indicate that the ferric site becomes 6-coordinate and the EXAFS data show a beat pattern which can only be simulated with an additional Fe-O/N interaction at 2.46 A. Together, the data suggest that the oxygens of the carboxylate group in terephthalate displace the hydroxide and chelate to the ferric site but in an asymmetric fashion. In contrast, protocatechuate 3,4-dioxygenase remains 5-coordinate upon the addition of the slow substrate homoprotocatechuic acid (HPCA). Previous EPR data have indicated that HPCA forms an iron chelate via the two hydroxyl functions.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

Nitrous oxide reductase is the terminal component of a respiratory chain that utilizes N2O in lieu of oxygen. It is a homodimer carrying in each subunit the electron transfer site, CuA, and the substrate-reducing catalytic centre, CuZ. Spectroscopic data have provided robust evidence for CuA as a binuclear, mixed-valence metal site. To provide further structural information on the CuA centre of N2O reductase, site directed mutagenesis and Cu K-edge X-ray absorption spectroscopic investigation have been undertaken. Candidate amino acids as ligands for the CuA centre of the enzyme from Pseudomonas stutzeri ATCC14405 were substituted by evolutionary conserved residues or amino acids similar to the wild-type residues. The mutations identified the amino acids His583, Cys618, Cys622 and Met629 as ligands of Cu1, and Cys618, Cys622 and His626 as the minimal set of ligands for Cu2 of the CuA centre. Other amino acid substitutions indicated His494 as a likely ligand of CuZ, and an indirect role for Asp580, compatible with a docking function for the electron donor. Cu binding and spectroscopic properties of recombinant N2O reductase proteins point at intersubunit or interdomain interaction of CuA and CuZ. Cu K-edge X-ray absorption spectra have been recorded to investigate the local environment of the Cu centres in N2O reductase. Cu K-edge Extended X-ray Absorption Fine Structure (EXAFS) for binuclear Cu chemical systems show clear evidence for Cu backscattering at approximately 2.5 A. The Cu K-edge EXAFS of the CuA centre of N2O reductase is very similar to that of the CuA centre of cytochrome c oxidase and the optimum simulation of the experimental data involves backscattering from a histidine group with Cu-N of 1.92 A, two sulfur atoms at 2.24 A and a Cu atom at 2. 43 A, and allows for the presence of a further light atom (oxygen or nitrogen) at 2.05 A. The interpretation of the CuA EXAFS is in line with ligands assigned by site-directed mutagenesis. By a difference spectrum approach, using the Cu K-edge EXAFS of the holoenzyme and that of the CuA-only form, histidine was identified as a major contributor to the backscattering. A structural model for the CuA centre of N2O reductase has been generated on the basis of the atomic coordinates for the homologous domain of cytochrome c oxidase and incorporating our current results and previous spectroscopic data. 相似文献

Escherichia coli glyoxalase I (GlxI) is a metalloisomerase that is maximally activated by Ni(2+), unlike other known GlxI enzymes which are active with Zn(2+). The metal is coordinated by two aqua ligands, two histidines (5 and 74), and two glutamates (56 and 122). The mechanism of E. coli Ni-GlxI was investigated by analyzing Ni K-edge X-ray absorption spectroscopic (XAS) data obtained from the enzyme and complexes formed with the product, S-D-lactoylglutathione, and various inhibitors. The analysis of X-ray absorption near edge structure (XANES) was used to determine the coordination number and geometry of the Ni site in the various Ni-GlxI complexes. Metric details of the Ni site structure were obtained from the analysis of extended X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS). Interaction of S-D-lactoylglutathione (product) or octylglutathione with the enzyme did not change the structure of the Ni site. However, analysis of XAS data obtained from a complex formed with a peptide hydroxamate bound to Ni-GlxI is consistent with this inhibitor binding to the Ni center by displacement of both water molecules. XANES analysis of this complex is best fit with a five-coordinate metal and, given the fact that both histidine ligands are retained, suggests the loss of a glutamate ligand. The loss of a glutamate ligand would preserve the neutral charge on the Ni complex and is consistent with the lack of a significant shift in the Ni K-edge energy in this complex. These data are compared with data obtained from the E. coli Ni-GlxI selenomethionine-substituted enzyme. The replacement of three methionine residues in the native enzyme with selenomethionine does not affect the structure of the Ni site. However, addition of the peptide hydroxamate inhibitor leads to the formation of a complex whose structure as determined by XAS analysis is consistent with inhibitor binding via displacement of both water molecules but retention of both histidine and glutamate ligands. This leads to an anionic complex, which is consistent with an observed 1.7 eV decrease in the Ni K-edge energy. Plausible reaction mechanisms for Ni-GlxI are discussed in light of the structural information available. 相似文献

Irreversible inhibition by molecular oxygen (O(2)) complicates the use of [FeFe]-hydrogenases (HydA) for biotechnological hydrogen (H(2)) production. Modification by O(2) of the active site six-iron complex denoted as the H-cluster ([4Fe4S]-2Fe(H)) of HydA1 from the green alga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii was characterized by x-ray absorption spectroscopy at the iron K-edge. In a time-resolved approach, HydA1 protein samples were prepared after increasing O(2) exposure periods at 0 °C. A kinetic analysis of changes in their x-ray absorption near edge structure and extended X-ray absorption fine structure spectra revealed three phases of O(2) reactions. The first phase (τ(1) ≤ 4 s) is characterized by the formation of an increased number of Fe-O,C bonds, elongation of the Fe-Fe distance in the binuclear unit (2Fe(H)), and oxidation of one iron ion. The second phase (τ(2) ≈ 15 s) causes a ~50% decrease of the number of ~2.7-? Fe-Fe distances in the [4Fe4S] subcluster and the oxidation of one more iron ion. The final phase (τ(3) ≤ 1000 s) leads to the disappearance of most Fe-Fe and Fe-S interactions and further iron oxidation. These results favor a reaction sequence, which involves 1) oxygenation at 2Fe(H(+)) leading to the formation of a reactive oxygen species-like superoxide (O(2)(-)), followed by 2) H-cluster inactivation and destabilization due to ROS attack on the [4Fe4S] cluster to convert it into an apparent [3Fe4S](+) unit, leading to 3) complete O(2)-induced degradation of the remainders of the H-cluster. This mechanism suggests that blocking of ROS diffusion paths and/or altering the redox potential of the [4Fe4S] cubane by genetic engineering may yield improved O(2) tolerance in [FeFe]-hydrogenase. 相似文献

The local structures of ‘host’ and ‘guest’ layers of MoS2 intercalated with M(OH)2 (M=Mn, Co and Ni) prepared via interaction of single-layer MoS2 dispersions and solutions of M2+ salts were studied by X-ray absorption spectroscopy. According to M K-edge extended X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) and X-ray absorption near-edge structure (XANES) results, the electronic structure and atomic environment of the M atoms in the intercalates are similar to that of the crystalline hydroxides M(OH)2. In the Ni intercalate, Mo K-edge EXAFS revealed a structural change of the ‘host’ MoS2 layers similar to that reported for water dispersions of MoS2 single layers. S K-edge XANES data indicate that the change is associated with increased electron density on the S atoms in the matrix. SO42− and Mo″− (4 < n < 6) were detected in the intercalated materials exposed to air, suggesting that transition metal intercalation may increase the susceptibility of the MoS2 layers to oxidation. 相似文献

We have examined the C cluster in type II CO dehydrogenase (CODH) from Carboxydothermus hydrogenformans using Ni K-edge X-ray absorption near edge spectroscopy and extended X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) spectroscopy. The enzyme was studied under three conditions: "as-isolated" and after treatment with CO or Ti(III). The shape of the Ni K-edge changes slightly between the different conditions, but no significant edge shift is seen, suggesting that the C cluster contains Ni(II) in both forms. The Ni EXAFS of as-isolated CODH can be simulated with 4 Ni-S interactions at 2.20 A with a large spread in distances. A light atom (C, N, O) is not required to fit the spectrum. After CO treatment, significant changes are observed in the EXAFS. A new feature appears at approximately 2.7 A; this component is consistent with a Ni-Fe interaction. The average Ni-S distance also expands to approximately 2.25 A. The changes between the two forms suggest that the active site (C cluster) undergoes structural rearrangement after CO treatment, and the observed changes help reconcile the two different crystal structures. The implications of the structural change for the enzyme activation and mechanism are discussed. 相似文献

Shewanella oneidensis MR-1 possesses a periplasmic [NiFe]-hydrogenase (MR-1 [NiFe]-H(2)ase) that has been implicated in H(2) production and oxidation as well as technetium [Tc(VII)] reduction. To characterize the roles of MR-1 [NiFe]-H(2)ase in these proposed reactions, the genes encoding both subunits of MR-1 [NiFe]-H(2)ase were cloned and then expressed in an MR-1 mutant without hyaB and hydA genes. Expression of recombinant MR-1 [NiFe]-H(2)ase in trans restored the mutant's ability to produce H(2) at 37% of that for the wild type. Following purification, MR-1 [NiFe]-H(2)ase coupled H(2) oxidation to reduction of Tc(VII)O(4)(-) and methyl viologen. Change of the buffers used affected MR-1 [NiFe]-H(2)ase-mediated reduction of Tc(VII)O(4)(-) but not methyl viologen. Under the conditions tested, all Tc(VII)O(4)(-) used was reduced in Tris buffer, while in HEPES buffer, only 20% of Tc(VII)O(4)(-) was reduced. The reduced products were soluble in Tris buffer but insoluble in HEPES buffer. Transmission electron microscopy analysis revealed that Tc precipitates reduced in HEPES buffer were aggregates of crystallites with diameters of ~5 nm. Measurements with X-ray absorption near-edge spectroscopy revealed that the reduction products were a mixture of Tc(IV) and Tc(V) in Tris buffer but only Tc(IV) in HEPES buffer. Measurements with extended X-ray adsorption fine structure showed that while the Tc bonding environment in Tris buffer could not be determined, the Tc(IV) product in HEPES buffer was very similar to Tc(IV)O(2)·nH(2)O, which was also the product of Tc(VII)O(4)(-) reduction by MR-1 cells. These results shows for the first time that MR-1 [NiFe]-H(2)ase catalyzes Tc(VII)O(4)(-) reduction directly by coupling to H(2) oxidation. 相似文献

The 1H NMR relaxation effects produced by paramagnetic Cr(III) complexes on nucleoside 5'-mono- and -triphosphates in D2O solution at pH' = 3 were measured. The paramagnetic probes were [Cr(III)(H2O)6]3+, [Cr(III)(H2O)3(HATP)], [Cr(III)(H2O)3(HCTP)] and [Cr(III)(H2O)3(UTP)-, while the matrix nucleotides (0.1 M) were H2AMP, HIMP-, and H2ATP2-. For the aromatic base protons, the ratios of the transverse to longitudinal paramagnetic relaxation rates (R2p/R1p) for the [Cr(III)(H2O)6]3+/H2ATP2-, [Cr(III)(H2O)3(HATP)]/H2ATP2-, [Cr(III)(H2O)3(HCTP)]/H2ATP2 and [Cr(III)(H2O)3(UTP)]-/H2ATP2 systems were below 2.33 so the dipolar term predominates. For a given nucleotide, R1p for the purine H(8) signal was larger than for the H(2) signal with the [Cr(III)(H2O)6]3+ probe, while R1p for the H(2) signal was larger with all the other Cr(III) probes. Molecular mechanics computations on the [Cr(III)(H2O)4(HPP)(alpha,beta)], [Cr(III)(NH3)4(HPP)(alpha,beta)], [Co(III)(NH3)3(H2PPP)(alpha,beta,gamma)] and [Co(III)(NH3)4(HPP)(alpha,beta)] complexes gave calculated energy-minimized geometries in good agreement with those reported in crystal structures. The molecular mechanics force constants found were then used to calculate the geometry of the inner sphere [Cr(III)(H2O)6]3+ and [Cr(III)(H2O)3(HATP)(alpha,beta,gamma)] complexes as well as the structures of the outer sphere [Cr(III)(H2O)6]3(+)-(H2AMP) and [Cr(III)(H2O)6]-(HIMP)- species. The gas-phase structure of the [Cr(III)(H2O)3(HATP)(alpha,beta,gamma)] complex shows the existence of a hydrogen bond interaction between a water ligand and the adenine N(7)(O...N = 2.82 A). The structure is also stabilized by intramolecular hydrogen bonds involving the -O(2')H group and the adenine N(3) (O...N = 2.80 A) as well as phosphate oxygen atoms and a water molecule (O...O = 2.47 A). The metal center has an almost regular octahedral coordination geometry. The structures of the two outer-sphere species reveal that the phosphate group interacts strongly with the hexa-aquochromium probe. In both complexes, the nucleotides have a similar "anti" conformation around the N(9)-C(1') glycosidic bond. However, a very important difference characterizes the two structures. For the (HIMP)- complex, strong hydrogen bond interactions exist between one and two water ligands and the inosine N(7) and O(6) atoms, respectively (O...O = 2.63 A; O...N = 2.72, 2.70 A). For the H2AMP complex, the [Cr(III)(H2O)6]3+ cation does not interact with N(7) since it is far from the purine system. Hydrogen bonds occur between water ligands and phosphate oxygens. The Cr-H(8) and Cr-H(2) distances revealed by the energy-minimized geometries for the two outer sphere species were used to calculate the R1p values for the H(8) and H(2) signals for comparison with the observed R1p values: 0.92(c), 1.04(ob) (H(8)) and 0.06(c), 0.35(ob) (H(2)) for H2AMP; and 3.76(c), 4.53(ob) (H(8)) and 0.16(c), 0.77(ob) s-1 (H(2)) for HIMP-.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS) 相似文献

Ni2+ affinity columns are widely used for protein purification, but they carry the risk that Ni2+ ions may bind to the protein, either adventitiously or at a physiologically important site. Dialysis against ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) is normally used to remove metal ions bound adventitiously to proteins; however, this approach does not always work. Here we report that a bacterial endonuclease, the DNase domain of colicin E9, binds Ni2+ acquired from Ni2+ affinity columns, and appears to bind [Ni(EDTA)(H2O)n]2- at low ionic strength. NMR was used to detect the presence of both Ni2+ coordinated to amino acid side chains and [Ni(EDTA)(H2O)N]2-. Dialysis against > or =0.2 M NaCl was required to remove the [Ni(EDTA)(H2O)n]2-. The NMR procedure we have used to characterize the presence of Ni2+ and [Ni(EDTA)(H2O)n]2- should be applicable to other proteins where there is the possibility of binding paramagnetic metal ions that are present to expedite protein purification. In the present case, the binding of Ni2+ seems likely to be physiologically relevant, and the NMR data complement recent X-ray crystallographic evidence concerning the number of histidine ligands to bound Ni2+. 相似文献

Structural evidence that the methionyl aminopeptidase from Escherichia coli is a mononuclear metalloprotease. 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The Co and Fe K-edge extended X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) spectra of the methionyl aminopeptidase from Escherichia coli (EcMetAP) have been recorded in the presence of 1 and 2 equiv of either Co(II) or Fe(II) (i.e., [Co(II)_(EcMetAP)], [Co(II)Co(II)(EcMetAP)], [Fe(II)_(EcMetAP)], and [Fe(II)Fe(II)(EcMetAP)]). The Fourier transformed data of both [Co(II)_(EcMetAP)] and [Co(II)Co(II)(EcMetAP)] are dominated by a peak at ca. 2.05 A, which can be fit assuming 5 light atom (N,O) scatterers at 2.04 A. Attempts to include a Co-Co interaction (in the 2.4-4.0 A range) in the curve-fitting parameters were unsuccessful. Inclusion of multiple-scattering contributions from the outer-shell atoms of a histidine-imidazole ring resulted in reasonable Debye-Waller factors for these contributions and a slight reduction in the goodness-of-fit value (f '). These data suggest that a dinuclear Co(II) center does not exist in EcMetAP and that the first Co atom is located in the histidine-ligated side of the active site. The EXAFS data obtained for [Fe(II)_(EcMetAP)] and [Fe(II)Fe(II)(EcMetAP)] indicate that Fe(II) binds to EcMetAP in a similar site to Co(II). Since no X-ray crystallographic data are available for any Fe(II)-substituted EcMetAP enzyme, these data provide the first glimpse at the Fe(II) active site of MetAP enzymes. In addition, the EXAFS data for [Co(II)Co(II)(EcMetAP)] incubated with the antiangiogenesis drug fumagillin are also presented. 相似文献

Preliminary EXAFS data has been collected on the molybdenum (K-edge) in C. pasteurianum formate dehydrogenase and the tungsten (LIII-edge) in C. thermoaceticum formate dehydrogenase. In the presence of dithionite, the tungsten enzyme was devoid of W = O bonds, and exhibited average W-(O, N) and W-S bond lengths of 2.13 +/- 0.03 A and 2.39 +/- 0.03 A, respectively. In sharp contrast, the C. pasteurianum molybdenum site has three Mo = O bonds with an average bond length of 1.74 +/- 0.03 A. It is also the first molybdenum enzyme found lacking Mo-S bonds, and does not appear to be redox active in the presence of formate or dithionite. Model compounds WO2(8-hydroxyquinoline)2 = WO2(ox)2, and WO2(8 mercaptoquinoline)2 = WO2(tox)2, were also examined. Respective predicted bond lengths for WO2(ox)2 and WO2(tox)2 were W = O of 1.71, 1.73 A; W-N of 2.31, 2.29 A; W-O or W-S of 1.92 or 2.40 A, with estimated uncertainties of +/- 0.03 A. 相似文献
