Spring-loading the active site of cytochrome P450cam.

ABSTRACT: A hydrogen bond network has been identified that adjusts protein-substrate contacts in cytochrome P450(cam) (CYP101A1). Replacing the native substrate camphor with adamantanone or norcamphor causes perturbations in NMR-detected NH correlations assigned to the network, which includes portions of a ? sheet and an adjacent helix that is remote from the active site. A mutation in this helix reduces enzyme efficiency and perturbs the extent of substrate-induced spin state changes at the haem iron that accompany substrate binding. In turn, the magnitude of the spin state changes induced by alternate substrate binding parallel the NMR-detected perturbations observed near the haem in the enzyme active site.

Replacing the native substrate camphor with adamantanone or norcamphor causes perturbations in NMR-detected NH correlations assigned to the network, which includes portions of a β sheet and an adjacent helix that is remote from the active site.

Active Site Hydrogen Bonding Induced in Cytochrome P450cam by Effector Putidaredoxin.

Project description:Cytochrome P450s are diverse and powerful catalysts that can activate molecular oxygen to oxidize a wide variety of substrates. Catalysis relies on effective uptake of two electrons and two protons. For cytochrome P450cam, an archetypal member of the superfamily, the second electron must be supplied by the redox partner putidaredoxin (Pdx). Pdx also plays an effector role beyond electron transfer, but after decades the mechanism remains under investigation. We applied infrared spectroscopy to heme-ligated CN- to examine the influence of Pdx binding. The results indicate that Pdx induces the population of a conformation wherein the CN- ligand forms a strong hydrogen bond to a solvent water molecule, experimentally corroborating the formation of a proposed proton delivery network. Further, characterization of T252A P450cam implicates the side chain of Thr252 in regulating the population equilibrium of hydrogen-bonded states within the P450cam/Pdx complex, which could underlie its role in directing activated oxygen toward product formation and preventing reaction uncoupling through peroxide release.

Active-site hydration and water diffusion in cytochrome P450cam: a highly dynamic process.

Project description:Long-timescale molecular dynamics simulations (300 ns) are performed on both the apo- (i.e., camphor-free) and camphor-bound cytochrome P450cam (CYP101). Water diffusion into and out of the protein active site is observed without biased sampling methods. During the course of the molecular dynamics simulation, an average of 6.4 water molecules is observed in the camphor-binding site of the apo form, compared to zero water molecules in the binding site of the substrate-bound form, in agreement with the number of water molecules observed in crystal structures of the same species. However, as many as 12 water molecules can be present at a given time in the camphor-binding region of the active site in the case of apo-P450cam, revealing a highly dynamic process for hydration of the protein active site, with water molecules exchanging rapidly with the bulk solvent. Water molecules are also found to exchange locations frequently inside the active site, preferentially clustering in regions surrounding the water molecules observed in the crystal structure. Potential-of-mean-force calculations identify thermodynamically favored trans-protein pathways for the diffusion of water molecules between the protein active site and the bulk solvent. Binding of camphor in the active site modifies the free-energy landscape of P450cam channels toward favoring the diffusion of water molecules out of the protein active site.

Detection of a high-barrier conformational change in the active site of cytochrome P450cam upon binding of putidaredoxin.

Project description:The orientation of the substrate camphor in the active site of reduced CO-bound cytochrome P450cam (CYP101) as a function of reduced putidaredoxin (Pdxr) addition has been examined by NMR using perdeuterated CYP101 and perdeuterated Pdx as well as isotopically labeled d-camphor. This permits the 1H resonances of CYP101-bound camphor to be observed without interference from the signals of CYP101 or Pdx and confirms assignments of the methyl signals of camphor in the bound form. The Cys4Fe2S2 ferredoxin Pdx is the physiological redox partner and effector of CYP101. The addition of Pdx to the reduced CYP101-camphor-CO complex results in a conformational selection that is slow on the chemical shift time scale with spectral effects observed primarily at the 8-CH3 group of the camphor. The camphor signals are ring current shifted by the heme, and for the 9- and 10-CH3 resonances, these shifts are reasonably well predicted by ring current calculations from the crystal structure of CO-bound CYP101. However, in the absence of Pdx, the 8-CH3 resonance of CYP101-bound camphor is observed at considerably higher field than predicted. Dynamic simulations using ring current shift restraints generated a structure with low chemical shift violations in which the hydrogen bond between the camphor carbonyl oxygen and the OH of Tyr96 is lost, and an expansion of the active site takes place that permits reorientation of the camphor within the active site.

Redox-dependent dynamics in cytochrome P450cam.

Project description:Local protein backbone dynamics of the camphor hydroxylase cytochrome P450(cam) (CYP101) depend upon the oxidation and ligation state of the heme iron. (1)H-(15)N correlation nuclear magnetic resonance experiments were used to compare backbone dynamics of oxidized and reduced forms of this 414-residue metalloenzyme via hydrogen-deuterium exchange kinetics (H-D exchange) and (15)N relaxation measurements, and these results are compared with previously published results obtained by H-D exchange mass spectrometry. In general, the reduced enzyme exhibits lower-amplitude motions of secondary structural features than the oxidized enzyme on all of the time scales accessible to these experiments, and these differences are more pronounced in regions of the enzyme involved in substrate access to the active site (B' helix and beta3 and beta5 sheets) and binding of putidaredoxin (C and L helices), the iron-sulfur protein that acts as the effector and reductant of CYP101 in vivo. These results are interpreted in terms of local structural effects of changes in the heme oxidation state, and the relevance of the observed effects to the enzyme mechanism is discussed.

Characterizing the proton loading site in cytochrome c oxidase.

Project description:Cytochrome c oxidase (CcO) uses the energy released by reduction of O2 to H2O to drive eight charges from the high pH to low pH side of the membrane, increasing the electrochemical gradient. Four electrons and protons are used for chemistry, while four more protons are pumped. Proton pumping requires that residues on a pathway change proton affinity through the reaction cycle to load and then release protons. The protonation states of all residues in CcO are determined in MultiConformational Continuum Electrostatics simulations with the protonation and redox states of heme a, a3, Cu(B), Y288, and E286 used to define the catalytic cycle. One proton is found to be loaded and released from residues identified as the proton loading site (PLS) on the P-side of the protein in each of the four CcO redox states. Thus, the same proton pumping mechanism can be used each time CcO is reduced. Calculations with structures of Rhodobacter sphaeroides, Paracoccus denitrificans, and bovine CcO derived by crystallography and molecular dynamics show the PLS functions similarly in different CcO species. The PLS is a cluster rather than a single residue, as different structures show 1-4 residues load and release protons. However, the proton affinity of the heme a3 propionic acids primarily determines the number of protons loaded into the PLS; if their proton affinity is too low, less than one proton is loaded.

Active site diversification of P450cam with indole generates catalysts for benzylic oxidation reactions.

Project description:Cytochrome P450 monooxygenases are useful biocatalysts for C-H activation, and there is a need to expand the range of these enzymes beyond what is naturally available. A panel of 93 variants of active self-sufficient P450cam[Tyr96Phe]-RhFRed fusion enzymes with a broad diversity in active site amino acids was developed by screening a large mutant library of 16,500 clones using a simple, highly sensitive colony-based colorimetric screen against indole. These mutants showed distinct fingerprints of activity not only when screened in oxidations of substituted indoles but also for unrelated oxidations such as benzylic hydroxylations.

A functional proline switch in cytochrome P450cam.

Project description:The two-protein complex between putidaredoxin (Pdx) and cytochrome P450(cam) (CYP101) is the catalytically competent species for camphor hydroxylation by CYP101. We detected a conformational change in CYP101 upon binding of Pdx that reorients bound camphor appropriately for hydroxylation. Experimental evidence shows that binding of Pdx converts a single X-proline amide bond in CYP101 from trans or distorted trans to cis. Mutation of proline 89 to isoleucine yields a mixture of both bound camphor orientations, that seen in Pdx-free and that seen in Pdx-bound CYP101. A mutation in CYP101 that destabilizes the cis conformer of the Ile 88-Pro 89 amide bond results in weaker binding of Pdx. This work provides direct experimental evidence for involvement of X-proline isomerization in enzyme function.

Dynamics underlying hydroxylation selectivity of cytochrome P450cam.

Project description:Structural heterogeneity and the dynamics of the complexes of enzymes with substrates can determine the selectivity of catalysis; however, fully characterizing how remains challenging as heterogeneity and dynamics can vary at the spatial level of an amino acid residue and involve rapid timescales. We demonstrate the nascent approach of site-specific two-dimensional infrared (IR) spectroscopy to investigate the archetypical cytochrome P450, P450cam, to better delineate the mechanism of the lower regioselectivity of hydroxylation of the substrate norcamphor in comparison to the native substrate camphor. Specific locations are targeted throughout the enzyme by selectively introducing cyano groups that have frequencies in a spectrally isolated region of the protein IR spectrum as local vibrational probes. Linear and two-dimensional IR spectroscopy were applied to measure the heterogeneity and dynamics at each probe and investigate how they differentiate camphor and norcamphor recognition. The IR data indicate that the norcamphor complex does not fully induce a large-scale conformational change to a closed state of the enzyme adopted in the camphor complex. Additionally, a probe directed at the bound substrate experiences rapidly interconverting states in the norcamphor complex that explain the hydroxylation product distribution. Altogether, the study reveals large- and small-scale structural heterogeneity and dynamics that could contribute to selectivity of a cytochrome P450 and illustrates the approach of site-selective IR spectroscopy to elucidate protein dynamics.

Substrate binding induces structural changes in cytochrome P450cam.

Project description:The binding of (+)-camphor to cytochrome P450cam (P450cam) expels a cluster of waters at the active site, raising the redox potential of the haem to an extent that allows reduction by the electron-transfer system. This binding was reported to involve no significant structural changes in the protein. Here, two ferric P450cam structures partially complexed with (+)-camphor were determined by X-ray crystallography at 1.30-1.35 A resolution, revealing the structures of the substrate-free and substrate-bound forms. (+)-Camphor binding induces rotation of Thr101 to form a hydrogen bond that acts as a hydrogen donor to a peripheral haem propionate. This bonding contributes to the redox-potential change.
