CYP102A1 is a highly active water-soluble bacterial monooxygenase that contains both substrate-binding heme and diflavin reductase subunits, all in a single polypeptide that has been called a "self-sufficient enzyme." Several years ago we developed a procedure called "scanning chimeragenesis," where we focused on residues 73-82 of CYP102A1, which contact approximately 40% of the substrates palmitoleic acid and N-palmitoylglycine [Murataliev et al. (2004) Biochemistry 43:1771-1780]. These residues were replaced with the homologous residues of CYP4C7. In the current work, that study has been expanded to include residue 87. Phenylalanine 87 of wild-type CYP102A1 was replaced with the homologous residue of CYP4C7, leucine, as well as with alanine. The full-sized chimeric proteins C(73-78, F87L), C(73-78, F87A), C(75-80, F87L), C(75-80, F87A), C(78-82, F87L) and C(78-82, F87A) have been purified and characterized. Wild-type CYP102A1 is most active toward fatty acids (both lauric and palmitic acids produce omega-1, omega-2, and omega-3 hydroxylated fatty acids), but it also catalyzes the oxidation of farnesol to three products (2, 3- and 10,11-epoxyfarnesols and 9-hydroxyfarnesol). All of the F87-mutant chimeric proteins show dramatic decreases in activities with the natural CYP102A1 substrates. In contrast, C(78-82, F87A) and C(78-82, F87L) have markedly increased activities with farnesol, with the latter showing a 5.7-fold increase in catalytic activity as compared to wild-type CYP102A1. C(78-82, F87L) produces 10,11-epoxyfarnesol as the single primary metabolite. The results show that chimeragenesis involving only the second half of SRS-1 plus F87 is sufficient to change the substrate selectivity of CYP102A1 from fatty acids to farnesol and to produce a single primary product. 相似文献

CYP102A1 is a highly active, water-soluble, bacterial monooxygenase enzyme that contains both substrate-binding heme and diflavin
reductase subunits, both in a single polypeptide. Recently we developed a procedure which uses the known structure of the
substrate-bound heme domain of CYP102A1 and its sequence homology with a cytochrome P450 of unknown structure, both of which
react with a common substrate but produce different products, to create recombinant enzymes which have substrate selectivity
different from that of CYP102A1, and produce the product of the enzyme of unknown structure. Insect CYP4C7, a terpene hydroxylase
from the cockroach, was chosen as the cytochrome P450 of unknown structure, and farnesol was chosen as the substrate. CYP102A1
oxidizes farnesol to three products (2,3-epoxyfarnesol, 10,11-epoxyfarnesol, and 9-hydroxyfarnesol), whereas CYP4C7 produces
12-hydroxyfarnesol as the major product. In earlier work it was found that the chimera C(78-82,F87L) showed a change in substrate
selectivity from fatty acids to farnesol, and was approximately sixfold more active than wild-type CYP102A1 (Chen et al. in
J Biol Inorg Chem 13:813–824, 2008), but neither it nor any other earlier chimera produced 12-hydroxyfarnesol. In this work we added amino acid residues 327–332,
to create six new full-length, functional chimeric proteins. Four of these, the most active of which was C(78-82,F87L,328-330),
produce 12-hydroxyfarnesol as the major product, with approximately twofold increase in turnover number as compared with wild-type
CYP102A1 toward farnesol. Methylfarnesoate was metabolized to 12-hydroxymethylfarnesoate (70%) and 10,11-epoxymethylfarnesoate
(juvenile hormone III) (30%). The latter is metabolized to 65% 12-hydroxy-10,11-epoxymethylfarnesoate and 35% 15-hydroxy-10,11-epoxymethylfarnesoate.
Substitution of residues 328–330, APA, by VPL was crucial to accomplishing this change in product. 相似文献

Cytochrome P450 BM3 from Bacillus megaterium is a monooxygenase with great potential for biotechnological applications. In this paper, we present engineered drug-metabolizing P450 BM3 mutants as a novel tool for regioselective hydroxylation of steroids at position 16β. In particular, we show that by replacing alanine at position 82 with a tryptophan in P450 BM3 mutants M01 and M11, the selectivity toward 16β-hydroxylation for both testosterone and norethisterone was strongly increased. The A82W mutation led to a ≤42-fold increase in V(max) for 16β-hydroxylation of these steroids. Moreover, this mutation improves the coupling efficiency of the enzyme, which might be explained by a more efficient exclusion of water from the active site. The substrate affinity for testosterone increased at least 9-fold in M11 with tryptophan at position 82. A change in the orientation of testosterone in the M11 A82W mutant as compared to the orientation in M11 was observed by T(1) paramagnetic relaxation nuclear magnetic resonance. Testosterone is oriented in M11 with both the A- and D-ring protons closest to the heme iron. Substituting alanine at position 82 with tryptophan results in increased A-ring proton-iron distances, consistent with the relative decrease in the level of A-ring hydroxylation at position 2β. 相似文献

Heterologous expression of CYP73A5, an Arabidopsis cytochrome P450 monooxygenase, in baculovirus-infected insect cells yields correctly configured P450 detectable by reduced CO spectral analysis in microsomes and cell lysates. Co-expression of a housefly NADPH P450 reductase substantially increases the ability of this P450 to hydroxylate trans-cinnamic acid, its natural phenylpropanoid substrate. For development of high-throughput P450 substrate profiling procedures, membrane proteins derived from cells overexpressing CYP73A5 and/or NADPH P450 reductase were incorporated into soluble His(6)-tagged nanoscale lipid bilayers (Nanodiscs) using a simple self-assembly process. Biochemical characterizations of nickel affinity-purified and size-fractionated Nanodiscs indicate that CYP73A5 protein assembled into Nanodiscs in the absence of NADPH P450 reductase maintains its ability to bind its t-cinnamic acid substrate. CYP73A5 protein co-assembled with P450 reductase into Nanodiscs hydroxylates t-cinnamic acid using reduced pyridine nucleotide as an electron source. These data indicate that baculovirus-expressed P450s assembled in Nanodiscs can be used to define the chemical binding profiles and enzymatic activities of these monooxygenases. 相似文献

The cytochrome P450 enzymes involved in xenobiotic metabolism are an excellent starting point for the directed evolution of novel biocatalysts due to their wide substrate specificity. A shuffled library of three highly homologous mammalian genes (for P450 2C9, P450 2C11 and P450 2C19) was constructed by applying a modified DNA family shuffling procedure. The modifications made to the traditional DNA shuffling protocols involved non-random digestion via the use of different combinations of restriction enzymes (REs) followed by isolation of fragments under 300 bp by size-selective filtration. Shuffled cytochrome P450 mutants were co-expressed in Escherichia coli with their redox partner, NADPH-cytochrome P450 reductase (NPR). We report here how non-random fragmentation may help in chimeragenesis within the areas of low sequence similarity such as substrate recognition sites (SRSs) that are generally underrepresented in recombination using the random fragmentation process. Size-selective filtration was used to limit recovery of incompletely digested fragments and consequently minimize the chances for contamination of the shuffled library with parental forms. No parental forms could be detected in the shuffled library using restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) analysis, suggesting the library was free of parental contamination. Sequencing of randomly selected mutants demonstrated a high level of chimeragenesis with on average of 8.0+/-2.2 crossovers and a low level of mutagenesis with 5.2+/-2.8 spontaneous mutations per approximately 1.5 kbp of the full-length P450 sequence. The proportion of properly folded protein as indicated by the observation of characteristic Fe(II).CO vs. Fe(II) difference spectra was 15% (4/27) of analysed mutants. Screening of the shuffled library for indole oxidation revealed four clones with similar or higher levels of indigo pigment production to those of the parental P450s and two clones with elevated P450 expression. In this paper we present a method for the effective family shuffling of cytochrome P450 enzymes, applicable to the creation of mutant libraries with expanded metabolic diversity and with a significant proportion of functional clones. 相似文献

Regio- and stereo-selective hydroxylation of bile acids is a valuable reaction but often lacks suitable catalysts. In the research, semi-rational design in protein engineering techniques had been applied on cytochrome P450 monooxygenase CYP102A1 (P450 BM3) from Bacillus megaterium, and a mutation library had been set up for the 1β-hydroxylation of lithocholic acid (LCA) to produce 1β-OH-LCA. After four rounds of mutagenesis, a key residue at W72 was identified to regulate the regio- and stereo-selectivity at C1 of LCA. A quadruple variant (G87A/W72T/A74L/L181M) was identified to reach 99.4% selectivity of 1β-hydroxylation and substrate conversion of 68.1% resulting in a 21.5-fold higher level of 1β-OH-LCA production than the template LG-23. Molecular docking indicated that introducing hydrogen bonds at W72 was responsible for enhancing selectivity and catalytic activity, which gave some insights into the structure-based understanding of Csp3-H activation by the developed P450 BM3 mutants. 相似文献

Resonance Raman spectra are reported for both the heme domain and holoenzyme of cytochrome P450BM3 in the resting state and for the ferric NO, ferrous CO, and ferrous NO adducts in the absence and presence of the substrate, palmitate. Comparison of the spectrum of the palmitate-bound form of the heme domain with that of the holoenzyme indicates that the presence of the flavin reductase domain alters the structure of the heme domain in such a way that water accessibility to the distal pocket is greater for the holoenzyme, a result that is consistent with analogous studies of cytochrome P450cam. The data for the exogenous ligand adducts are compared to those previously reported for corresponding derivatives of cytochrome P450cam and document significant and important differences for the two proteins. Specifically, while the binding of substrate induces relatively dramatic changes in the nu(Fe-XY) modes of the ferrous CO, ferric NO, and ferrous NO derivatives of cytochrome P450cam, no significant changes are observed for the corresponding derivatives of cytochrome P450BM3 upon binding of palmitate. In fact, the spectral data for substrate-free cytochrome P450BM3 provide evidence for distortion of the Fe-XY fragment, even in the absence of substrate. This apparent distortion, which is nonexistent in the case of substrate-free cytochrome P450cam, is most reasonably attributed to interaction of the Fe-XY fragment with the F87 phenylalanine side chain. This residue is known to lie very close to the heme iron in the substrate-free derivative of cytochrome P450BM3 and has been suggested to prevent hydroxylation of the terminal, omega, position of long-chain fatty acids. 相似文献

Studies have shown that mammalian cytochromes p450 participate in the metabolism of terpenes, yet their role in the biotransformation of farnesol, an endogenous 15-carbon isoprenol, is unknown. In this report, [(14)C]-farnesol was transformed to more polar metabolites by NADPH-supplemented mammalian microsomes. In experiments with microsomes isolated from acetone-treated animals, the production of one polar metabolite was induced, suggesting catalysis by CYP2E1. The metabolite was identified as (2E, 6E, 10E)-12-hydroxyfarnesol. In studies with purified CYP2E1, 12-hydroxyfarnesol was obtained as the major product of farnesol metabolism. Among a series of available human p450 enzymes, only CYP2C19 also produced 12-hydroxyfarnesol. However, in individual human microsomes, CYP2E1 was calculated to contribute up to 62% toward total 12-hydroxyfarnesol production, suggesting CYP2E1 as the major catalyst. Mammalian cells expressing CYP2E1 demonstrated further farnesol metabolism to alpha,omega-prenyl dicarboxylic acids. Since such acids were identified in animal urine, the data suggest that CYP2E1 could be an important regulator of farnesol homeostasis in vivo. In addition, CYP2E1-dependent 12-hydroxyfarnesol formation was inhibited by pharmacological alcohol levels. Given that farnesol is a signaling molecule implicated in the regulation of tissue and cell processes, the biological activity of ethanol may be mediated in part by interaction with CYP2E1-dependent farnesol metabolism. 相似文献

Filling a hole in cytochrome P450 BM3 improves substrate binding and catalytic efficiency 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Cytochrome P450BM3 (CYP102A1) from Bacillus megaterium, a fatty acid hydroxylase, is a member of a very large superfamily of monooxygenase enzymes. The available crystal structures of the enzyme show non-productive binding of substrates with their omega-end distant from the iron in a hydrophobic pocket at one side of the active site. We have constructed and characterised mutants in which this pocket is filled by large hydrophobic side-chains replacing alanine at position 82. The mutants having phenylalanine or tryptophan at this position have very much (approximately 800-fold) greater affinity for substrate, with a greater conversion of the haem iron to the high-spin state, and similarly increased catalytic efficiency. The enzyme as isolated contains bound palmitate, reflecting this much higher affinity. We have determined the crystal structure of the haem domain of the Ala82Phe mutant with bound palmitate; this shows that the substrate is binding differently from the wild-type enzyme but still distant from the haem iron. Detailed analysis of the structure indicates that the tighter binding in the mutant reflects a shift in the conformational equilibrium of the substrate-free enzyme towards the conformation seen in the substrate complex rather than differences in the enzyme-substrate interactions. On this basis, we outline a sequence of events for the initial stages of the catalytic cycle. The Ala82Phe and Ala82Trp mutants are also very much more effective catalysts of indole hydroxylation than the wild-type enzyme, suggesting that they will be valuable starting points for the design of mutants to catalyse synthetically useful hydroxylation reactions. 相似文献

Surface-enhanced resonance Raman scattering (SERRS) of substrate-free and substrate-bound forms of the P450 domain of cytochrome P450 BM3 are reported and assigned. Substrate-free P450 yields mixed spin heme species in which the pentacoordinate high-spin arrangement is dominant. The addition of laurate or palmitate leads to an increase in high spin content and to an allosteric activation of heme mode v29, which is sensitive to peripheral heme/protein interactions. Differences between laurate and palmitate binding are observed in the relative intensities of a number of bands and the splitting of the heme vinyl modes. Laurate binding to P450 results in different protein environments being experienced by each vinyl mode, whereas palmitate binding produces a smaller difference. The results demonstrate the ability of SERRS to probe substrate/prosthetic group interactions within an active site, at low protein concentrations. 相似文献

CYP175A1 is a thermophilic cytochrome P450 and hydroxylates β-carotene. We previously identified a native electron transport system for CYP175A1. In this report, we constructed two fusion proteins consisting of CYP175A1, ferredoxin (Fdx), and ferredoxin-NADP+ reductase (FNR): H2N-CYP175A1-Fdx-FNR-COOH (175FR) and H2N-CYP175A1-FNR-Fdx-COOH (175RF). Both 175FR and 175RF were expressed in Escherichia coli and purified. The Vmax value for β-carotene hydroxylation was 25 times higher with 175RF than 175FR and 9 times higher with 175RF than CYP175A1 (non-fused protein), although the km values of these enzymes were similar. 175RF retained 50% residual activity even at 80 °C. Furthermore, several mutants of the CYP175A1 domain of 175RF were prepared and one mutant (Q67G/Y68I) catalyzed the hydroxylation of an unnatural substrate, testosterone. Thus, this is the first report of a thermostable self-sufficient cytochrome P450 and the engineering of a thermophilic cytochrome P450 for the oxidation of an unnatural substrate. 相似文献

The nitrogenous pi -acceptor ligand 4-cyanopyridine (4CNPy) exhibits reversible ligation to ferrous heme in the flavocytochrome P450 BM3 (Kd=1.8 microm for wild type P450 BM3) via its pyridine ring nitrogen. The reduced P450-4CNPy adduct displays unusual spectral properties that provide a useful spectroscopic handle to probe particular aspects of this P450. 4CNPy is competitively displaced upon substrate binding, allowing a convenient route to the determination of substrate dissociation constants for ferrous P450 highlighting an increase in P450 substrate affinity on heme reduction. For wild type P450 BM3, Kd(red)(laurate)=82.4 microm (cf. Kd(ox)=364 microm). In addition, an unusual spectral feature in the red region of the absorption spectrum of the reduced P450-4CNPy adduct is observed that can be assigned as a metal-to-ligand charge transfer (MLCT). It was discovered that the energy of this MLCT varies linearly with respect to the P450 heme reduction potential. By studying the energy of this MLCT for a series of BM3 active site mutants with differing reduction potential (Em), the relationship EMLCT + (3.53 x = Em 17,005 cm)(-1) was derived. The use of this ligand thus provides a quick and accurate method for predicting the heme reduction potentials of a series of P450 BM3 mutations using visible spectroscopy, without the requirement for redox potentiometry. 相似文献

The cytochrome P450 CYP153 family is thought to mediate the terminal hydroxylation reactions of n-alkanes. We isolated 16 new P450 CYP153A genes (central region) from various environments such as petroleum-contaminated soil and groundwater, as well as one from the n-alkane-degrading bacterium Alcanivorax borkumensis SK2 (designated P450balk). The sequences of the new P450 genes were extended by PCR to generate full-length chimeric P450 genes, using the N- and C-terminal domains of P450balk. A differential CO-reduced P450 spectral analysis indicated that 8 P450 genes among the 16 chimeric genes were expressed in Escherichia coli to generate a soluble and functional enzyme. The several functional chimeric P450s and P450balk were further fused to the reductase domain of the self-sufficient P450 monooxygenase (P450RhF) at the C-terminus. E. coli cells expressing these self-sufficient P450 chimeric genes converted n-alkanes, cyclohexane, 1-octene, n-butylbenzene, and 4-phenyl-1-butene into 1-alkanols, cyclohexanol, 1,2-epoxyoctane, 1-phenyl-4-butanol, and 2-phenethyl-oxirane, respectively. 相似文献

P450 hemeproteins comprise a large gene superfamily that catalyzes monooxygenase reactions in the presence of a redox partner. Because the mammalian members are, without exception, membrane-bound proteins, they have resisted structure-function analysis by means of X-ray crystallographic methods. Among P450-catalyzed reactions, the aromatase reaction that catalyzes the conversion of C19 steroids to estrogens is one of the most complex and least understood. Thus, to better understand the reaction mechanism, we have constructed a three-dimensional model of P450arom not only to examine the active site and those residues potentially involved in catalysis, but to study other important structural features such as substrate recognition and redox-partner binding, which require examination of the entire molecule (excepting the putative membrane-spanning region). This model of P450arom was built based on a "core structure" identified from the structures of the soluble, bacterial P450s (P450cam, P450terp, and P450BM-P) rather than by molecular replacement, after which the less conserved elements and loops were added in a rational fashion. Minimization and dynamic simulations were used to optimize the model and the reasonableness of the structure was evaluated. From this model we have postulated a membrane-associated hydrophobic region of aliphatic and aromatic residues involved in substrate recognition, a redox-partner binding region that may be unique compared to other P450s, as well as residues involved in active site orientation of substrates and an inhibitor of P450arom, namely vorozole. We also have proposed a scheme for the reaction mechanism in which a "threonine switch" determines whether oxygen insertion into the substrate molecule involves an oxygen radical or a peroxide intermediate. 相似文献

The use of cytochrome P450 (P450 or CYP) enzymes as biocatalysts for the production of fine chemicals, including pharmaceuticals, has been of increasing interest, primarily owing to their catalytic diversity and broad substrate range. CYP102A1 (P450 BM3) from Bacillus megaterium integrates an entire monooxygenase system into one polypeptide and represents an appropriate prokaryotic model for industrial applications of mammalian P450 activities. CYP102A1 not only exhibits the highest catalytic activity ever detected in a P450 monooxygenase but also provides a potentially versatile biocatalyst for the production of human P450 metabolites. CYP102A1 can be further engineered to be a drug-metabolizing enzyme, making it a promising candidate to use as a biocatalyst in drug discovery and synthesis. 相似文献

Biochemical characterization of rat P450 2C11 fused to rat or bacterial NADPH-P450 reductase domains 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
cDNAs coding for rat P450 2C11 fused to either a bacterial (the NADPH-cytochrome P450 BM3 reductase domain of P450 BM3) or a truncated form of rat NADPH-P450 reductases were expressed in Escherichia coli and characterized enzymatically. Measurements of NADPH cytochrome c reductase activity showed fusion-dependent increases in the rates of cytochrome c reduction by the bacterial or the mammalian flavoprotein (21 and 48%, respectively, of the rates observed with nonfused enzymes). Neither the bacterial flavoprotein nor the truncated rat reductase supported arachidonic acid metabolism by P450 2C11. In contrast, fusion of P450 2C11 to either reductase yielded proteins that metabolized arachidonic acid to products similar to those obtained with reconstituted systems containing P450 2C11 and native rat P450 reductase. Addition of a 10-fold molar excess of rat P450 reductase markedly increased the rates of metabolism by both fused and nonfused P450s 2C11. These increases occurred with preservation of the regioselectivity of arachidonic acid metabolism. The fusion-independent reduction of P450 2C11 by bacterial P450 BM3 reductase was shown by measurements of NADPH-dependent H(2)O(2) formation [73 +/- 10 and 10 +/- 1 nmol of H(2)O(2) formed min(-)(1) (nmol of P450)(-)(1) for the reconstituted and fused protein systems, respectively]. These studies demonstrate that (a) a self-sufficient, catalytically active arachidonate epoxygenase can be constructed by fusing P450 2C11 to mammalian or bacterial P450 reductases and (b) the P450 BM3 reductase interacts efficiently with mammalian P450 2C11 and catalyzes the reduction of the heme iron. However, fusion is required for metabolism and product formation. 相似文献

Cytochrome P450BM3 has long been regarded as a promising candidate for use as a biocatalyst, owing to its excellent efficiency for the hydroxylation of unactivated C–H bonds. However, because of its high substrate specificity, its possible applications have been severely limited. Consequently, various approaches have been proposed to overcome the enzyme's natural limitations, thereby expanding its substrate scope to encompass non-native substrates, evoking chemoselectivity, regioselectivity and stereoselectivity and enabling previously inaccessible chemical conversions. Herein, these approaches will be classified into three categories: (1) mutagenesis including directed evolution, (2) haem substitution with artificial cofactors and (3) use of substrate mimics, ‘decoy molecules’. Herein, we highlight the representative work that has been conducted in above three categories for discussion of the future outlook of P450BM3 in green chemistry. 相似文献

A rapid method for identifying compounds that are potential substrates for the drug metabolising enzyme cytochrome P450 is described. The strategy is based on the detection of a degradation product of NAD(P)H oxidation during substrate turnover by the enzyme expressed in Escherichia coli cells spontaneously lysed under the experimental conditions. The performance of the method has been tested on two known substrates of the wild-type cytochrome P450 BM3, arachidonic (AA) and lauric (LA) acids, and two substrates with environmental significance, the anionic surfactant sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS), and the solvent 1,1,2,2-tetrachloroethane (TCE). The minimal background signal given from cells expressing cytochrome P450 BM3 in the absence of added substrate is only 3% of the signal in the presence of saturating substrate. Control experiments have proven that this method is specifically detecting NADPH oxidation by catalytic turnover of P450 BM3. The assay has been adapted to a microtitre plate format and used to screen a series of furazan derivatives as potential substrates. Three derivatives were identified as substrates. The method gave a significant different signal for two isomeric furazan derivatives. All results found on the cell lysate were verified and confirmed with the purified enzyme. This strategy opens the way to automated high throughput screening of NAD(P)H-linked enzymatic activity of molecules of pharmacological and biotechnological interest and libraries of random mutants of NAD(P)H-dependent biocatalysts. 相似文献

Selective oxy-functionalization of nonactivated C-H bonds is a long-standing “dream reaction” of organic synthesis for which chemical methodology is not well developed. Mono-oxygenase enzymes are promising catalysts for such oxy-functionalization to establish. Limitation on their applicability arises from low reaction output. Here, we showed an integrated approach of process engineering to the intensification of the cytochrome P450 BM3-catalyzed hydroxylation of dodecanoic acid (C12:0). Using P450 BM3 together with glucose dehydrogenase for regeneration of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH), we compared soluble and co-immobilized enzymes in O2-gassed and pH-controlled conversions at high final substrate concentrations (≥40mM). We identified the main engineering parameters of process output (i.e., O2 supply; mixing correlated with immobilized enzyme stability; foam control correlated with product isolation; substrate solubilization) and succeeded in disentangling their complex interrelationship for systematic process optimization. Running the reaction at O2-limited conditions at up to 500-ml scale (10% dimethyl sulfoxide; silicone antifoam), we developed a substrate feeding strategy based on O2 feedback control. Thus, we achieved high reaction rates of 1.86g·L−1·hr−1 and near complete conversion (≥90%) of 80mM (16g/L) C12:0 with good selectivity (≤5% overoxidation). We showed that “uncoupled reaction” of the P450 BM3 (~95% utilization of NADPH and O2 not leading to hydroxylation) with the C12:0 hydroxylated product limited the process efficiency at high product concentration. Hydroxylated product (~7g; ≥92% purity) was recovered from 500ml reaction in 82% yield using ethyl-acetate extraction. Collectively, these results demonstrate key engineering parameters for the biocatalytic oxy-functionalization and show their integration into a coherent strategy for process intensification. 相似文献
