Rv2607 from Mycobacterium tuberculosis is a pyridoxine 5'-phosphate oxidase with unusual substrate specificity.

ABSTRACT: Despite intensive effort, the majority of the annotated Mycobacterium tuberculosis genome consists of genes encoding proteins of unknown or poorly understood function. For example, there are seven conserved hypothetical proteins annotated as homologs of pyridoxine 5'-phosphate oxidase (PNPOx), an enzyme that oxidizes pyridoxine 5'-phosphate (PNP) or pyridoxamine 5'-phosphate (PMP) to form pyridoxal 5'-phosphate (PLP). We have characterized the function of Rv2607 from Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv and shown that it encodes a PNPOx that oxidizes PNP to PLP. The k(cat) and K(M) for this reaction were 0.01 s(-1) and 360 µM, respectively. Unlike many PNPOx enzymes, Rv2607 does not recognize PMP as a substrate.

The molecular structure of Rv2074, a probable pyridoxine 5'-phosphate oxidase from Mycobacterium tuberculosis, at 1.6 angstroms resolution.

Project description:The crystal structure of a conserved hypothetical protein corresponding to open reading frame Rv2074 from Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) has been solved by the two-wavelength anomalous dispersion method. Refinement of the molecular structure at 1.6 angstroms resolution resulted in an R(work) of 0.178 and an R(free) of 0.204. The crystal asymmetric unit contains an Rv2074 monomer; however, the crystallographic twofold symmetry operation of space group P4(3)2(1)2 generates dimeric Rv2074. Each monomer folds into a six-stranded antiparallel beta-barrel flanked by two alpha-helices. The three-dimensional structure of Rv2074 is very similar to that of Mtb Rv1155, a probable pyridoxine 5'-phosphate oxidase (PNPOx), which corroborates well with the relatively high sequence similarity (52%) between the two. A structural comparison between Rv2074 and Rv1155 revealed that the core structure (a six-stranded beta-barrel) is also well conserved; the major differences between the two lie in the N- and C-termini and in the small helical domain. Two citric acid molecules were observed in the active site of Rv2074, the crystals of which were grown in 0.2 M sodium citrate buffer pH 5.0. The citric acid molecules are bound to Rv2074 by hydrogen-bonding interactions with Thr55, Gln60 and Lys61. One of the two citric acid molecules occupies the same spatial position that corresponds to the position of the phosphate and ribose sugar moieties of the flavin mononucleotide (FMN) in the Mtb Rv1155-FMN, Escherichia coli PNPOx-FMN and human PNPOx-FMN complex structures. Owing to its extensive structural similarity with Mtb Rv1155 and to the E. coli and human PNPOx enzymes, Rv2074 may be involved in the final step in the biosynthesis of pyridoxal 5'-phosphate (PLP; a vitamin B6).

Cloning, expression, purification, crystallization and preliminary X-ray studies of a pyridoxine 5'-phosphate oxidase from Mycobacterium smegmatis.

Project description:Pyridoxine 5'-phosphate oxidases (PNPOxs) are known to catalyse the terminal step in pyridoxal 5'-phosphate biosynthesis in a flavin mononucleotide-dependent manner in humans and Escherichia coli. Recent reports of a putative PNPOx from Mycobacterium tuberculosis, Rv1155, suggest that the cofactor or catalytic mechanism may differ in Mycobacterium species. To investigate this, a putative PNPOx from M. smegmatis, Msmeg_3380, has been cloned. This enzyme has been recombinantly expressed in E. coli and purified to homogeneity. Good-quality crystals of selenomethionine-substituted Msmeg_3380 were obtained by the hanging-drop vapour-diffusion technique and diffracted to 1.2 A using synchrotron radiation.

Allosteric feedback inhibition of pyridoxine 5'-phosphate oxidase from Escherichia coli.

Project description:In Escherichia coli, the synthesis of pyridoxal 5'-phosphate (PLP), the catalytically active form of vitamin B6, takes place through the so-called deoxyxylulose 5-phosphate-dependent pathway, whose last step is pyridoxine 5'-phosphate (PNP) oxidation to PLP, catalyzed by the FMN-dependent enzyme PNP oxidase (PNPOx). This enzyme plays a pivotal role in controlling intracellular homeostasis and bioavailability of PLP. PNPOx has been proposed to undergo product inhibition resulting from PLP binding at the active site. PLP has also been reported to bind tightly at a secondary site, apparently without causing PNPOx inhibition. The possible location of this secondary site has been indicated by crystallographic studies as two symmetric surface pockets present on the PNPOx homodimer, but this site has never been verified by other experimental means. Here, we demonstrate, through kinetic measurements, that PLP inhibition is actually of a mixed-type nature and results from binding of this vitamer at an allosteric site. This interpretation was confirmed by the characterization of a mutated PNPOx form, in which substrate binding at the active site is heavily hampered but PLP binding is preserved. Structural and functional connections between the active site and the allosteric site were indicated by equilibrium binding experiments, which revealed different PLP-binding stoichiometries with WT and mutant PNPOx forms. These observations open up new horizons on the mechanisms that regulate E. coli PNPOx, which may have commonalities with the mechanisms regulating human PNPOx, whose crucial role in vitamin B6 metabolism and epilepsy is well-known.

Enzymatic activities and DNA substrate specificity of Mycobacterium tuberculosis DNA helicase XPB.

Project description:XPB, also known as ERCC3 and RAD25, is a 3' ? 5' DNA repair helicase belonging to the superfamily 2 of helicases. XPB is an essential core subunit of the eukaryotic basal transcription factor complex TFIIH. It has two well-established functions: in the context of damaged DNA, XPB facilitates nucleotide excision repair by unwinding double stranded DNA (dsDNA) surrounding a DNA lesion; while in the context of actively transcribing genes, XPB facilitates initiation of RNA polymerase II transcription at gene promoters. Human and other eukaryotic XPB homologs are relatively well characterized compared to conserved homologs found in mycobacteria and archaea. However, more insight into the function of bacterial helicases is central to understanding the mechanism of DNA metabolism and pathogenesis in general. Here, we characterized Mycobacterium tuberculosis XPB (Mtb XPB), a 3'?5' DNA helicase with DNA-dependent ATPase activity. Mtb XPB efficiently catalyzed DNA unwinding in the presence of significant excess of enzyme. The unwinding activity was fueled by ATP or dATP in the presence of Mg(2+)/Mn(2+). Consistent with the 3'?5' polarity of this bacterial XPB helicase, the enzyme required a DNA substrate with a 3' overhang of 15 nucleotides or more. Although Mtb XPB efficiently unwound DNA model substrates with a 3' DNA tail, it was not active on substrates containing a 3' RNA tail. We also found that Mtb XPB efficiently catalyzed ATP-independent annealing of complementary DNA strands. These observations significantly enhance our understanding of the biological roles of Mtb XPB.

<sup>19</sup>F-NMR reveals substrate specificity of CYP121A1 in Mycobacterium tuberculosis.

Project description:Cytochromes P450 (CYPs) are versatile enzymes that function in endobiotic and xenobiotic metabolism, and undergo meaningful structural changes that relate to their function. However, the way in which conformational changes inform the specific recognition of substrate is often unknown. Here we demonstrate the utility of 19F nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy to monitor structural changes in CYP121A1, an essential enzyme from Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb). CYP121A1 forms functional dimers that catalyze the phenol-coupling reaction of the dipeptide dicylcotyrosine (cYY). The thiol-reactive compound 3-bromo-1,1,1-trifluoroacetone (BTFA) was used to label an S171C mutation of the enzyme FG-loop, which is located adjacent to the homodimer interface. Substrate titrations and inhibitor-bound 19F-NMR spectra indicate that ligand binding reduces conformational heterogeneity at the FG-loop in both the dimer and in an engineered monomer of CYP121A1. However, only the dimer was found to promote a substrate-bound conformation that was pre-existing in the substrate-free spectra, thus confirming a role for the dimer interface in cYY recognition. Moreover, 19F-NMR spectra in the presence of substrate analogs indicate the hydrogen-bonding feature of the dipeptide aromatic side chain as a strict specificity criterion. This study demonstrates the utility of 19F-NMR as applied to a multimeric CYP, while also revealing mechanistic insight for an essential Mtb enzyme.

Pyridoxine 5'-phosphate oxidase is correlated with human breast invasive ductal carcinoma development.

Project description:Pyridoxine 5'-phosphate oxidase (PNPO) is a converting enzyme for an active form of vitamin B6. This study aims to evaluate the biological function and the regulatory mechanism of PNPO in human breast invasive ductal carcinoma (IDC). We unveiled for the first time that PNPO was upregulated in patients with IDC and was correlated with the overall survival of patients with metastasis at the later stages. Suppression of PNPO inhibited breast cancer cell proliferation, migration, invasion and colony formation, arrested cell cycle at the G2/M phase and induced cell apoptosis. PNPO was positively correlated with lncRNA MALAT1 which was negatively correlated with miR-216b-5p. PNPO was down-regulated and up-regulated by miR-216b-5p mimics and inhibitors, respectively, in breast cancer cells. A microRNA response element was found in both PNPO and MALAT1 transcripts for miR-216b-5p and the dual-luciferase reporter assay confirmed the binding of these transcripts. Knockdown of MALAT1 resulted in an increase of miR-216b-5p and a decrease of PNPO mRNA, indicating a regulatory mechanism of competing endogenous RNAs. Taken together, these results reveal the biological function and a regulatory mechanism of PNPO, in which the MALAT1/miR-216b-5p/PNPO axis may be important in IDC development. Targeting this axis may have therapeutic potential for breast cancer.

Identification and characterization of the pyridoxal 5'-phosphate allosteric site in Escherichia coli pyridoxine 5'-phosphate oxidase.

Project description:Pyridoxal 5'-phosphate (PLP), the catalytically active form of vitamin B6, plays a pivotal role in metabolism as an enzyme cofactor. PLP is a very reactive molecule and can be very toxic unless its intracellular concentration is finely regulated. In Escherichia coli, PLP formation is catalyzed by pyridoxine 5'-phosphate oxidase (PNPO), a homodimeric FMN-dependent enzyme that is responsible for the last step of PLP biosynthesis and is also involved in the PLP salvage pathway. We have recently observed that E. coli PNPO undergoes an allosteric feedback inhibition by PLP, caused by a strong allosteric coupling between PLP binding at the allosteric site and substrate binding at the active site. Here we report the crystallographic identification of the PLP allosteric site, located at the interface between the enzyme subunits and mainly circumscribed by three arginine residues (Arg23, Arg24, and Arg215) that form an "arginine cage" and efficiently trap PLP. The crystal structure of the PNPO-PLP complex, characterized by a marked structural asymmetry, presents only one PLP molecule bound at the allosteric site of one monomer and sheds light on the allosteric inhibition mechanism that makes the enzyme-substrate-PLP ternary complex catalytically incompetent. Site-directed mutagenesis studies focused on the arginine cage validate the identity of the allosteric site and provide an effective means to modulate the allosteric properties of the enzyme, from the loosening of the allosteric coupling (in the R23L/R24L and R23L/R215L variants) to the complete loss of allosteric properties (in the R23L/R24L/R21L variant).

Biochemical evidence for relaxed substrate specificity of Nα-acetyltransferase (Rv3420c/rimI) of Mycobacterium tuberculosis.

Project description:Nα-acetylation is a naturally occurring irreversible modification of N-termini of proteins catalyzed by Nα-acetyltransferases (NATs). Although present in all three domains of life, it is little understood in bacteria. The functional grouping of NATs into six types NatA - NatF, in eukaryotes is based on subunit requirements and stringent substrate specificities. Bacterial orthologs are phylogenetically divergent from eukaryotic NATs, and only a couple of them are characterized biochemically. Accordingly, not much is known about their substrate specificities. Rv3420c of Mycobacterium tuberculosis is a NAT ortholog coding for RimI(Mtb). Using in vitro peptide-based enzyme assays and mass-spectrometry methods, we provide evidence that RimI(Mtb) is a protein Nα-acetyltransferase of relaxed substrate specificity mimicking substrate specificities of eukaryotic NatA, NatC and most competently that of NatE. Also, hitherto unknown acetylation of residues namely, Asp, Glu, Tyr and Leu by a bacterial NAT (RimI(Mtb)) is elucidated, in vitro. Based on in vivo acetylation status, in vitro assay results and genetic context, a plausible cellular substrate for RimI(Mtb) is proposed.

Structure of Mycobacterium tuberculosis phosphatidylinositol phosphate synthase reveals mechanism of substrate binding and metal catalysis.

Project description:Tuberculosis causes over one million yearly deaths, and drug resistance is rapidly developing. Mycobacterium tuberculosis phosphatidylinositol phosphate synthase (PgsA1) is an integral membrane enzyme involved in biosynthesis of inositol-derived phospholipids required for formation of the mycobacterial cell wall, and a potential drug target. Here we present three crystal structures of M. tuberculosis PgsA1: in absence of substrates (2.9?Å), in complex with Mn2+ and citrate (1.9?Å), and with the CDP-DAG substrate (1.8?Å). The structures reveal atomic details of substrate binding as well as coordination and dynamics of the catalytic metal site. In addition, molecular docking supported by mutagenesis indicate a binding mode for the second substrate, D-myo-inositol-3-phosphate. Together, the data describe the structural basis for M. tuberculosis phosphatidylinositol phosphate synthesis and suggest a refined general catalytic mechanism-including a substrate-induced carboxylate shift-for Class I CDP-alcohol phosphotransferases, enzymes essential for phospholipid biosynthesis in all domains of life.

Molecular basis of reduced pyridoxine 5'-phosphate oxidase catalytic activity in neonatal epileptic encephalopathy disorder.

Project description:Mutations in pyridoxine 5'-phosphate oxidase are known to cause neonatal epileptic encephalopathy. This disorder has no cure or effective treatment and is often fatal. Pyridoxine 5'-phosphate oxidase catalyzes the oxidation of pyridoxine 5'-phosphate to pyridoxal 5'-phosphate, the active cofactor form of vitamin B(6) required by more than 140 different catalytic activities, including enzymes involved in amino acid metabolism and biosynthesis of neurotransmitters. Our aim is to elucidate the mechanism by which a homozygous missense mutation (R229W) in the oxidase, linked to neonatal epileptic encephalopathy, leads to reduced oxidase activity. The R229W variant is approximately 850-fold less efficient than the wild-type enzyme due to an approximately 192-fold decrease in pyridoxine 5'-phosphate affinity and an approximately 4.5-fold decrease in catalytic activity. There is also an approximately 50-fold reduction in the affinity of the R229W variant for the FMN cofactor. A 2.5 A crystal structure of the R229W variant shows that the substitution of Arg-229 at the FMN binding site has led to a loss of hydrogen-bond and/or salt-bridge interactions between FMN and Arg-229 and Ser-175. Additionally, the mutation has led to an alteration of the configuration of a beta-strand-loop-beta-strand structure at the active site, resulting in loss of two critical hydrogen-bond interactions involving residues His-227 and Arg-225, which are important for substrate binding and orientation for catalysis. These results provide a molecular basis for the phenotype associated with the R229W mutation, as well as providing a foundation for understanding the pathophysiological consequences of pyridoxine 5'-phosphate oxidase mutations.
