Crude cell-free extracts of nine strains of Streptomyces tested for nitroalkane-oxidizing activity showed production of nitrous acid from 2-nitropropane, 1-nitropropane, nitroethane, nitromethane, and 3-nitropropionic acid. These substrates were utilized in most strains but to a decreasing extent in the order given, and different strains varied in their relative efficiency of oxidation. p-Nitrobenzoic acid, p-aminobenzoic acid, enteromycin, and omega-nitro-l-arginine were not attacked. d-Amino acid oxidase, glucose oxidase, glutathione S-transferase, and xanthine oxidase, enzymes potentially responsible for the observed oxidations in crude cellfree extracts, were present at concentrations too low to play any significant role. A nitroalkane-oxidizing enzyme from streptozotocin-producing Streptomyces achromogenes subsp. streptozoticus was partially purified and characterized. It catalyzes the oxidative denitrification of 2-nitropropane as follows: 2CH(3)CH(NO(2))CH(3) + O(2) --> 2CH(3)COCH(3) + 2HNO(2). At the optimum pH of 7.5 of the enzyme, 2-nitropropane was as good a substrate as its sodium salt; t-nitrobutane was not a substrate. Whereas Tiron, oxine, and nitroxyl radical acted as potent inhibitors of this enzyme, superoxide dismutase was essentially without effect. Sodium peroxide abolished a lag phase in the progress curve of the enzyme and afforded stimulation, whereas sodium superoxide did not affect the reaction. Reducing agents, such as glutathione, reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide, and nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate, reduced form, as well as thiol compounds, were strongly inhibitory, but cyanide had no effect. The S. achromogenes enzyme at the present stage of purification is similar in many respects to the enzyme 2-nitropropane dioxygenase from Hansenula mrakii. The possible involvement of the nitroalkane-oxidizing enzyme in the biosynthesis of antibiotics that contain a nitrogen-nitrogen bond is discussed.  相似文献

A nitroalkane-oxidizing enzyme, which was inducibly formed by addition of nitroethane to the medium was purified to homogeneity from an extract of Fusarium oxysporum (IFO 5942) with an overall yield of about 20%. The enzyme catalyzed the oxidative denitrification of 1-nitropropane as follows: CH2(NO2)CH2CH3 + O2 + H2O leads to OHCCH2CH3 + HNO2 + H2O2. In addition to 1-nitropropane, 3-nitro-2-pentanol, 2-nitropropane, and nitrocyclohexane are good substrates; the enzyme is designated "nitroalkane oxidase" (EC class 1.7.3). The enzyme has a molecular weight of approximately 185,000 and consists of four subunits identical in molecular weight (47,000). Flavin adenine dinucleotide was required for the enzyme activity and could be replaced in part by riboflavin 5'-phosphate. The maximum reactivity was found at about pH 8.0. The enzyme was inhibited significantly by HgCl2, KCN, p-chloromercuribenzoate, and N-ethylmaleimide. The Michaelis constants are as follows: 1-nitropropane, 1.54 mM; 2-nitropropane, 7.40 mM; nitroethane, 1.00 mM; 3-nitro-2-pentanol, 3.08 mM; nitrocyclohexane, 0.90 mM; and flavin adenine dinucleotide, 1.33 micrometer.  相似文献

A nitroalkane-oxidizing enzyme was purified about 1,300-fold from a cell extract of Hansenula mrakii grown in a medium containing nitroethane as the sole nitrogen source by ammonium sulfate fractionation, diethylaminoethyl-cellulose column chromatography, hydroxyapatite column chromatography, and Bio-Gel P-150 column chromatography. The enzyme was shown to be homogeneous upon acrylamide gel electrophoresis and ultracentrifugation. The enzyme exhibits absorption maxima at 274, 370, 415, and 440 nm and a shoulder at 470 nm. Balance studies showed that 2 mol of 2-nitropropane is converted into an equimolar amount of acetone and nitrite with the consumption of 1 mol of oxygen. Hydrogen peroxide is not formed in the enzyme reaction. In addition to 2-nitropropane, 1-nitropropane and nitroethane are oxidatively dentrified by the enzyme, but nitromethane is inert to the enzyme. The nitroalkanes are not oxidized under anaerobic conditions.  相似文献

2-Nitropropane dioxygenase (EC 1.13.11.32) catalyzes the oxidation of nitroalkanes into their corresponding carbonyl compounds and nitrite. In this study, the ncd-2 gene encoding for the enzyme in Neurospora crassa was cloned, expressed in Escherichia coli, and the resulting enzyme was purified. Size exclusion chromatography, heat denaturation, and mass spectroscopic analyses showed that 2-nitropropane dioxygenase is a homodimer of 80 kDa, containing a mole of non-covalently bound FMN per mole of subunit, and is devoid of iron. With neutral nitroalkanes and anionic nitronates other than propyl-1- and propyl-2-nitronate, for which a non-enzymatic free radical reaction involving superoxide was established using superoxide dismutase, substrate oxidation occurs within the enzyme active site. The enzyme was more specific for nitronates than nitroalkanes, as suggested by the second order rate constant k(cat)/K(m) determined with 2-nitropropane and primary nitroalkanes with alkyl chain lengths between 2 and 6 carbons. The steady state kinetic mechanism with 2-nitropropane, nitroethane, nitrobutane, and nitrohexane, in either the neutral or anionic form, was determined to be sequential, consistent with oxygen reacting with a reduced form of enzyme before release of the carbonyl product. Enzyme-monitored turnover with ethyl nitronate as substrate indicated that the catalytically relevant reduced form of enzyme is an anionic flavin semiquinone, whose formation requires the substrate, but not molecular oxygen, as suggested by anaerobic substrate reduction with nitroethane or ethyl nitronate. Substrate deuterium kinetic isotope effects with 1,2-[(2)H(4)]nitroethane and 1,1,2-[(2)H(3) ethyl nitronate at pH 8 yielded normal and inverse effects on the k(cat)/K(m) value, respectively, and were negligible on the k(cat) value. The k(cat)/K(m) and k(cat) pH profiles with anionic nitronates showed the requirement of an acid, whereas those for neutral nitroalkanes were consistent with the involvement of both an acid and a base in catalysis. The kinetic data reported herein are consistent with an oxidasestyle catalytic mechanism for 2-nitropropane dioxygenase, in which the flavin-mediated oxidation of the anionic nitronates or neutral nitroalkanes and the subsequent oxidation of the enzyme-bound flavin occur in two independent steps.  相似文献

A nitroalkane-oxidizing enzyme was purified to homogeneity from Neurospora crassa. The enzyme is composed of two subunits; the molecular weight of each subunit is approximately 40,000. The enzyme catalyzes the oxidation of nitroalkanes to produce the corresponding carbonyl compounds. It acts on 2-nitropropane better than on nitroethane and 1-nitropropane, and anionic forms of nitroalkanes are much better substrates than are neutral forms. The enzyme does not act on aromatic compounds. When the enzyme reaction was conducted in an 18O2 atmosphere with the anionic form of 2-nitropropane as the substrate, acetone (with a molecular mass of 60 Da) was produced. This indicates that the oxygen atom of acetone was derived from molecular oxygen, not from water; hence, the enzyme is an oxygenase. The reaction stoichiometry was 2CH3CH(NO2)-CH3 + O2→2CH3COCH3 + 2HNO2, which is identical to that of the reaction of 2-nitropropane dioxygenase from Hansenula mrakii. The reaction of the Neurospora enzyme was inhibited by superoxide anion scavengers in the same manner as that of the Hansenula enzyme. Both of these enzymes are flavoenzymes; however, the Neurospora enzyme contains flavin mononucleotide as a prosthetic group, whereas the Hansenula enzyme contains flavin adenine dinucleotide.  相似文献

An FAD-containing L-alpha-glycerophosphate oxidase has been purified to homogeneity from Streptococcus faecium. The purified protein exists as a dimer (subunit Mr = 65,000); each subunit contains 1 mol of FAD. The enzyme contains no iron, as determined by atomic absorption spectroscopy. The alpha-glycerophosphate oxidase reacts reversibly with sulfite to form a covalent N(5) adduct; it preferentially binds the anionic form of the native oxidized FAD, and it also stabilizes the p-quinonoid form of 8-mercapto-FAD. The enzyme shows an unusually high reactivity with ferricyanide in the absence of oxygen; however, there is no evidence for any superoxide ion (O2-.) generation under standard assay conditions. Dithionite titrations of the enzyme reveal an unusual pH dependence for the stabilization of the flavin semiquinone; only at pH 8.5 does significant anionic semiquinone accumulate. L-alpha-Glycerophosphate rapidly reduces the enzyme-bound FAD; in addition, a small amount of catalytically insignificant red semiquinone appears under these conditions. The 5-deaza-FAD-reconstituted enzyme is also reduced by substrate, strongly suggesting that a radical mechanism is not involved in the oxidation of alpha-glycerophosphate. Furthermore, nitroethane anion reduces the native enzyme; this observation suggests that an electron transfer mechanism involving a substrate carbanion is possible with this enzyme.  相似文献

The flavoprotein nitroalkane oxidase catalyzes the oxidation of primary and secondary nitroalkanes to aldehydes and ketones, respectively, transferring electrons to oxygen to form hydrogen peroxide. The steady-state kinetic mechanism of the active flavin adenine dinucleotide-(FAD-) containing form of the enzyme has been determined with nitroethane at pH 7 to be bi-ter ping-pong, with oxygen reacting with the free reduced enzyme after release of the aldehyde product. The V(max) value is 5.5 +/- 0.3 s(-)(1) and the K(m) values for nitroethane and oxygen are 3.3 +/- 0.6 and 0.023 +/- 0.007 mM, respectively. The free reduced enzyme forms a dead-end complex with nitroethane, with a K(ai) value of 30 +/- 6 mM. Acetaldehyde and butyraldehyde are noncompetitive inhibitors versus nitroethane due to formation of a dead-end complex between the oxidized enzyme and the product. Acetaldehyde is an uncompetitive inhibitor versus oxygen, indicating that an irreversible isomerization of the free reduced enzyme occurs before the reaction with oxygen. Addition of unprotonated imidazole results in a 5-fold increase in the V(max) value, while the V/K values for nitroethane and oxygen are unaffected. A 5-fold increase in the K(ai) value for nitroethane and a 6.5-fold increase in the K(ii) value for butyraldehyde are observed in the presence of imidazole. These results are consistent with the isomerization of the free reduced enzyme being about 80% rate-limiting for catalysis and with a model in which unprotonated imidazole accelerates the rate of isomerization.  相似文献

Among the enzymes that catalyze the oxidative denitrification of nitroalkanes to carbonyl compounds, 2-nitropropane dioxygenase is the only one known to effectively utilize both the neutral and anionic (nitronate) forms of the substrate. A recent study has established that the catalytic pathway is common to both types of substrates, except for the initial removal of a proton from the carbon of the neutral substrates [Francis, K., Russell, B., and Gadda, G. (2005) J. Biol. Chem. 280, 5195-5204]. In the present study, the mechanistic properties of the enzyme have been investigated with solvent viscosity, pH, and kinetic isotope effects. With nitroethane or ethylnitronate, the kcat/Km and kcat values were independent of solvent viscosity, consistent with the substrate and product binding to the enzyme in rapid equilibrium. The abstraction of the proton from the alpha carbon of neutral substrates was investigated by measuring the pH dependence of the D(kcat/KNE) value with 1,1-[2H2]-nitroethane. The formation of the enzyme-bound flavosemiquinone formed during catalysis was examined by determining the pH dependence of the kcat/Km values with ethylnitronate and nitroethane and the inhibition by m-nitrobenzoate. Finally, alpha-secondary kinetic isotope effects with 1-[2H]-ethylnitronate were used to propose a non-oxidative tautomerization pathway, in which the enzyme catalyzes the interconversion of nitroalkanes between their anionic and neutral forms. The data presented suggest that enzymatic turnover of 2-nitropropane dioxygenase with neutral substrates is limited by the cleavage of the substrate CH bond at low pH, whereas that with anionic substrates is limited by the non-oxidative tautomerization of ethylnitroante to nitroethane at high pH.  相似文献

The deprotonation of nitroethane catalyzed by Neurospora crassa 2-nitropropane dioxygenase was investigated by measuring the formation and release of ethylnitronate formed in turnover as a function of pH and through mutagenesis studies. Progress curves for the enzymatic reaction obtained by following the increase in absorbance at 228 nm over time were visibly nonlinear, requiring a logarithmic approximation of the initial reaction rates for the determination of the kinetic parameters of the enzyme. The pH dependence of the second-order rate constant k cat/ K m with nitroethane as substrate implicates the presence of a group with a p K a of 8.1 +/- 0.1 that must be unprotonated for nitronate formation. Mutagenesis studies suggest that this group is histidine 196 as evident from the inability of a H196N variant form of the enzyme to catalyze the formation of ethylnitronate from nitroethane. Replacement of histidine 196 with asparagine resulted in an approximately 15-fold increase in the k cat/ K m with ethylnitronate as compared to the wild-type, which results from the inability of the mutant enzyme to undergo nonoxidative turnover. The results presented herein are consistent with a branched catalytic mechanism for the enzyme in which the ethylnitronate intermediate formed from the H196-catalyzed deprotonation of nitroethane partitions between release from the active site and oxidative denitrification to yield acetaldehyde and nitrite.  相似文献

A mono-oxygenase catalysing the conversion of 2-ethyl-4-thioisonicotinamide (ethionamide) into its sulphoxide was purified from guinea-pig liver homogenates. The enzyme required stoicheiometric amounts of oxygen and NADPH for the sulphoxidation reaction. The purified protein is homogeneous by electrophoretic, antigenic and chromatographic criteria. The enzyme has mol.wt. 85000 and it contains 1g-atom of iron and 1mol of FAD per mol, but not cytochrome P-450. The enzyme shows maximal activity at pH7.4 in a number of different buffer systems and the K(m) values calculated for the substrate and NADPH are 6.5x10(-5)m and 2.8x10(-5)m respectively. The activation energy of the reaction was calculated to be 36kJ/mol. Under optimal conditions, the molecular activity of the enzyme (mol of substrate oxidized/min per mol of enzyme) is calculated to be 2.1. The oxygenase belongs to the class of general drug-metabolizing enzymes and it may act on different compounds which can undergo sulphoxidation. The mechanism of sulphoxidation was shown to be mediated by superoxide anions.  相似文献

66 representative strains of bacteria, yeasts and fungi were tested for their ability to grow in a semidefined medium containing 0.5% nitroethane as a nitrogen source. About half of them were found capable of growing in the medium. Hansenula beijerinckii, Candida utilis, and Penicillium chrysogenum were most active in assimilating nitroethane. 2-Nitropropane inhibited growth of most of the microorganisms tested in a medium containing 0.2% peptone and 0.2% glycerol. Hansenula mrakii was found to grow rapidly in the nitroethane-peptone medium after a lag phase. Nitrite was accumulated in the culture fluid after the phase of logarithmic multiplication, and increased with increase of the growth, followed by a decline after the maximum growth. The alkyl nitro compounds were oxidatively denitrified to form nitrite by the crude enzyme from Hansenula mrakii. Nitroethane was generally a poor substrate, but was the best inducer to produce the nitro compounds oxidizing enzyme. 2-Nitropropane and nitroethane were enzymatically oxidized to and acetone and acetaldehyde, respectively, which were isolated as 2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazones and identified. Nitrite formed was found to be reduced into ammonia by the intact cells and also the crude enzyme.  相似文献

Nitroalkane oxidase catalyzes the oxidation of nitroalkanes to aldehydes or ketones with production of nitrite and hydrogen peroxide. pH and kinetic isotope effects with [1, 1-(2)H(2)]nitroethane have been used to study the mechanism of this enzyme. The V/K(ne) pH profile is bell-shaped. A group with a pK(a) value of about 7 must be unprotonated and one with a pK(a) value of 9.5 must be protonated for catalysis. The lower pK(a) value is seen also in the pK(is) profile for the competitive inhibitor valerate, indicating that nitroethane has no significant external commitments to catalysis. The (D)(V/K)(ne) value is pH-independent with a value of 7.5, whereas the (D)V(max) value increases from 1.4 at pH 8.2 to a limiting value of 7.4 below pH 5. The V(max) pH profile decreases at low and high pH, with pK(a) values of 6.6 and 9.5, respectively. Imidazole, which activates the enzyme, affects the V(max) but not the V/K(ne) pH profile. In the presence of imidazole at pH 7 the (D)V(max) value increases to a value close to the intrinsic value, consistent with cleavage of the carbon-hydrogen bond of the substrate being fully rate-limiting for catalysis in the presence of imidazole.  相似文献

Homotropic cooperative binding was observed at vapor sorption of organic solvents (acetonitrile, propionitrile, ethanol, 1-propanol, 2-propanol, nitroethane) by dried solid trypsin from porcine pancreas (0.05 g H2O/g protein). The vapor sorption isotherms were obtained by the static method of gas chromatographic headspace analysis at 298 K for 'vapor solvent+solid trypsin' systems in the absence of the liquid phase. All isotherms have a sigmoidal shape with significant sorbate uptake only above the threshold of sorbate thermodynamic activity. On the sorption isotherms of non-hydroxylic sorbates the saturation of trypsin by organic solvent was observed above the sorbate threshold activity. The formation of inclusion compounds with phase transition between solvent-free and solvent-saturated trypsin is supposed. Approximation of obtained isotherms by the Hill equation gives the inclusion stoichiometry S, inclusion free energy, and the Hill constant N of clathrates. The inclusion stoichiometry S depends significantly on the size and shape of sorbate molecules and changes from S=31 mol of sorbate per mol of trypsin for ethanol to S=6 for nitroethane. The inclusion free energies determined for the standard states of pure liquid sorbate and infinitely dilute solution in toluene are in the range from -0.5 to -1.2 kJ/mol and from -3.1 to -8.1 kJ/mol, respectively, per 1 mol of sorbate. The Hill constants are relatively high: from N=5.6 for 1-propanol to N approximately equal to 10(3) for nitroethane. The implication of the obtained results for the interpretation of solvent effects on the enzyme activity and stability in low-water medium is discussed.  相似文献

The reaction of superoxide radical (O2-) with the heme protein indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase has been investigated by the use of pulse radiolysis. In the absence of the substrate tryptophan (Trp), the ferric enzyme reacted quantitatively with O2- to form the oxygenated enzyme. The rate constant for the reaction (8.0 x 10(6) M-1 s-1 at pH 7.0) increased with a decrease in pH. In the presence of low concentrations of L-Trp (approximately 50 microM), under which the catalytic site of the ferric enzyme is greater than 99% Trp-free at pH 7.0, the only spectral species observed upon O2- binding was L-Trp-bound oxygenated enzyme, the ternary complex. This suggests that under the conditions employed O2- binds first to the ferric enzyme to form the oxygenated enzyme and is followed by rapid binding of L-Trp. It was also found that absorbance changes (delta A) for the enzyme after the pulse were significantly decreased when an increased L-Trp concentration was employed. A 50% decrease in delta A was caused with approximately 50 microM L-Trp at pH 7.0. Similar results were also observed with other indole derivatives with decreasing delta A values in the order of indole, 3-indoleethanol, alpha-methyl-DL-Trp, and D-Trp. These results suggest that there exists a binding site for these compounds in the dioxygenase different from the catalytic site for Trp and, most significantly, that binding of Trp to the effector binding site of the ferric enzyme markedly inhibits its reaction with O2-.  相似文献

The hemA gene encoding 5-aminolevulinic acid synthase (ALAS) was cloned from the genomic DNA of photosynthetic bacterium Rhodopseudomonas palustris KUGB306. The deduced protein (ALAS) of this gene contained 409 amino acids. The hemA gene was subcloned into an expression vector pGEX-KG and the encoded protein was overexpressed as a fusion protein with glutathione-S-transferase (GST) in Escherichia coli BL21. The recombinant ALAS was purified and isolated free of the fusion partner (GST) by affinity purification on glutathione-Sepharose 4B resin and cleavage of the purified fusion protein by thrombin protease. The optimum pH and temperature of the recombinant ALAS was found to be at pH 7.5-8.0 and 35-40 degrees C, respectively. The Km value of the enzyme was 2.01 mM for glycine and 49.55 microM for succinyl-CoA. The enzyme activity was strongly inhibited by Pb2+, Fe2+, Co2+, Cu2+, and Zn2+ at 1 mM, but slightly affected by Mg2+ and K+. The recombinant ALAS required pyridoxal 5'-phosphate (PLP) as a cofactor for catalysis. Removal of this cofactor led to complete loss of the activity. Ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy with the ALAS suggested the presence of an aldimine linkage between the enzyme and PLP.  相似文献

Superoxide dismutase (SOD; EC 1.15.1.1) is an enzyme that protects against oxidative stress from superoxide radicals in living cells. This enzyme has been isolated, purified and partially characterized from chicken liver. The following steps were carried out in order to purify chicken liver SOD. Initially, the liver was homogenized and hemoglobin was removed. Subsequently protein precipitation was effected with (NH(4))(2)SO(4), methanol, (NH(4))(2)SO(4)-methanol and polyethylene glycol methods. The product from polyethylene glycol-3350 precipitation was found to have the highest SOD activity. Polyethylene glycol was removed by chromatography using a PD-10 column. After passing through an ultrafilter, the superoxide dismutase was fractionated by DEAE-ion chromatography and then Sephadex G-75 gel filtration chromatography. During this purification procedure, a specific activity of 4818.2 IU/mg was reached, corresponding to 285.8-fold purification. The purified enzyme, which was characterized as cyanide-sensitive SOD, contained two subunits having Cu and Zn elements with a molecular weight of 16000+/-500 for each. The optimum pH of purified CuZnSOD was determined to be 8.9. The enzyme was found to have good pH stability in the pH range 6.0-7.5 at 25 degrees C over a 2-h incubation period and displayed good thermal stability up to 45 degrees C at pH 7.4 over a 1-h incubation period. The SOD enzyme was not inhibited by DTT and beta-mercaptoethanol, but inhibited by CN(-) and H(2)O(2). In the presence of 2 mM iodoacetamide, the enzyme showed an approximately 40% activity loss. Finally, the inhibitory effect of ionic strength on SOD was also investigated.  相似文献

A genomic DNA of 1416 bp containing an open reading frame encoding a manganese superoxide dismutase (Mn-SOD) from Tatumella ptyseos ct was cloned. Sequence analysis of this new gene revealed that it translates 205 amino acid residues. The deduced amino acid sequence showed variable identities (41-91%) with sequences of Mn-SODs from other species. The residues required to coordinate the single trivalent manganese ion and the 11 residues putatively involved in the active center are conserved as they are in other reported Mn-SODs. In addition, the gene was introduced into the expression vector, pET-20b(+), and transformed in Escherichia coli BL21(DE3). The Mn-SOD was purified by a His-tag technique. The yield was 0.9 mg from 0.5 L of culture. The specific activity was 6540 U/mg. A dimer is the major form of the enzyme in equilibrium. The half-life of dimer is approximately 50 min and its thermal inactivation rate constant k(d) was 0.015 min(-1) at 80 degrees C. The dimerization of the enzyme was inhibited under an acidic pH (below 4.0), or in the presence of SDS (above 1%) or imidazole (above 0.5 M), whereas it was not affected under an alkaline pH (above 9.0). Furthermore, the dimeric enzyme was much more resistant to proteolytic attack after 3 h of incubation at 37 degrees C with trypsin and chymotrypsin. This unusually stable enzyme can be used as cosmetic to the protection of skin against the unaesthetic effects caused by free radicals.  相似文献
