Iodotyrosine deiodinase: a unique flavoprotein present in organisms of diverse phyla.

ABSTRACT: Iodide is required for thyroid hormone synthesis in mammals and other vertebrates. The role of both iodide and iodinated tyrosine derivatives is currently unknown in lower organisms, yet the presence of a key enzyme in iodide conservation, iodotyrosine deiodinase (IYD), is suggested by genomic data from a wide range of multicellular organisms as well as some bacteria. A representative set of these genes has now been expressed, and the resulting enzymes all catalyze reductive deiodination of diiodotyrosine with kcat/Km values within a single order of magnitude. This implies a physiological presence of iodotyrosines (or related halotyrosines) and a physiological role for their turnover. At least for Metazoa, IYD should provide a new marker for tracing the evolutionary development of iodinated amino acids as regulatory signals through the tree of life.

Crystal structure of iodotyrosine deiodinase, a novel flavoprotein responsible for iodide salvage in thyroid glands.

Project description:The flavoprotein iodotyrosine deiodinase (IYD) salvages iodide from mono- and diiodotyrosine formed during the biosynthesis of the thyroid hormone thyroxine. Expression of a soluble domain of this membrane-bound enzyme provided sufficient material for crystallization and characterization by x-ray diffraction. The structures of IYD and two co-crystals containing substrates, mono- and diiodotyrosine, alternatively, were solved at resolutions of 2.0, 2.45, and 2.6 A, respectively. The structure of IYD is homologous to others in the NADH oxidase/flavin reductase superfamily, but the position of the active site lid in IYD defines a new subfamily within this group that includes BluB, an enzyme associated with vitamin B(12) biosynthesis. IYD and BluB also share key interactions involving their bound flavin mononucleotide that suggest a unique catalytic behavior within the superfamily. Substrate coordination to IYD induces formation of an additional helix and coil that act as an active site lid to shield the resulting substrate.flavin complex from solvent. This complex is stabilized by aromatic stacking and extensive hydrogen bonding between the substrate and flavin. The carbon-iodine bond of the substrate is positioned directly over the C-4a/N-5 region of the flavin to promote electron transfer. These structures now also provide a molecular basis for understanding thyroid disease based on mutations of IYD.

Redox control of iodotyrosine deiodinase.

Project description:The redox chemistry of flavoproteins is often gated by substrate and iodotyrosine deiodinase (IYD) has the additional ability to switch between reaction modes based on the substrate. Association of fluorotyrosine (F-Tyr), an inert substrate analog, stabilizes single electron transfer reactions of IYD that are not observed in the absence of this ligand. The co-crystal of F-Tyr and a T239A variant of human IYD have now been characterized to provide a structural basis for control of its flavin reactivity. Coordination of F-Tyr in the active site of this IYD closely mimics that of iodotyrosine and only minor perturbations are observed after replacement of an active site Thr with Ala. However, loss of the side chain hydroxyl group removes a key hydrogen bond from flavin and suppresses the formation of its semiquinone intermediate. Even substitution of Thr with Ser decreases the midpoint potential of human IYD between its oxidized and semiquinone forms of flavin by almost 80 mV. This decrease does not adversely affect the kinetics of reductive dehalogenation although an analogous Ala variant exhibits a 6.7-fold decrease in its kcat /Km . Active site ligands lacking the zwitterion of halotyrosine are not able to induce closure of the active site lid that is necessary for promoting single electron transfer and dehalogenation. Under these conditions, a basal two-electron process dominates catalysis as indicated by preferential reduction of nitrophenol rather than deiodination of iodophenol.

A switch between one- and two-electron chemistry of the human flavoprotein iodotyrosine deiodinase is controlled by substrate.

Project description:Reductive dehalogenation is not typical of aerobic organisms but plays a significant role in iodide homeostasis and thyroid activity. The flavoprotein iodotyrosine deiodinase (IYD) is responsible for iodide salvage by reductive deiodination of the iodotyrosine derivatives formed as byproducts of thyroid hormone biosynthesis. Heterologous expression of the human enzyme lacking its N-terminal membrane anchor has allowed for physical and biochemical studies to identify the role of substrate in controlling the active site geometry and flavin chemistry. Crystal structures of human IYD and its complex with 3-iodo-l-tyrosine illustrate the ability of the substrate to provide multiple interactions with the isoalloxazine system of FMN that are usually provided by protein side chains. Ligand binding acts to template the active site geometry and significantly stabilize the one-electron-reduced semiquinone form of FMN. The neutral form of this semiquinone is observed during reductive titration of IYD in the presence of the substrate analog 3-fluoro-l-tyrosine. In the absence of an active site ligand, only the oxidized and two-electron-reduced forms of FMN are detected. The pH dependence of IYD binding and turnover also supports the importance of direct coordination between substrate and FMN for productive catalysis.

Functional analysis of iodotyrosine deiodinase from drosophila melanogaster.

Project description:The flavoprotein iodotyrosine deiodinase (IYD) was first discovered in mammals through its ability to salvage iodide from mono- and diiodotyrosine, the by-products of thyroid hormone synthesis. Genomic information indicates that invertebrates contain homologous enzymes although their iodide requirements are unknown. The catalytic domain of IYD from Drosophila melanogaster has now been cloned, expressed and characterized to determine the scope of its potential catalytic function as a model for organisms that are not associated with thyroid hormone production. Little discrimination between iodo-, bromo-, and chlorotyrosine was detected. Their affinity for IYD ranges from 0.46 to 0.62 ?M (Kd ) and their efficiency of dehalogenation ranges from 2.4 - 9 x 103 M-1 s-1 (kcat /Km ). These values fall within the variations described for IYDs from other organisms for which a physiological function has been confirmed. The relative contribution of three active site residues that coordinate to the amino acid substrates was subsequently determined by mutagenesis of IYD from Drosophila to refine future annotations of genomic and meta-genomic data for dehalogenation of halotyrosines. Substitution of the active site glutamate to glutamine was most detrimental to catalysis. Alternative substitution of an active site lysine to glutamine affected substrate affinity to the greatest extent but only moderately affected catalytic turnover. Substitution of phenylalanine for an active site tyrosine was least perturbing for binding and catalysis.

The distribution and mechanism of iodotyrosine deiodinase defied expectations.

Project description:Iodotyrosine deiodinase (IYD) is unusual for its reliance on flavin to promote reductive dehalogenation under aerobic conditions. As implied by the name, this enzyme was first discovered to catalyze iodide elimination from iodotyrosine for recycling iodide during synthesis of tetra- and triiodothyronine collectively known as thyroid hormone. However, IYD likely supports many more functions and has been shown to debrominate and dechlorinate bromo- and chlorotyrosines. A specificity for halotyrosines versus halophenols is well preserved from humans to bacteria. In all examples to date, the substrate zwitterion establishes polar contacts with both the protein and the isoalloxazine ring of flavin. Mechanistic data suggest dehalogenation is catalyzed by sequential one electron transfer steps from reduced flavin to substrate despite the initial expectations for a single two electron transfer mechanism. A purported flavin semiquinone intermediate is stabilized by hydrogen bonding between its N5 position and the side chain of a Thr. Mutation of this residue to Ala suppresses dehalogenation and enhances a nitroreductase activity that is reminiscent of other enzymes within the same structural superfamily.

Rapid kinetics of dehalogenation promoted by iodotyrosine deiodinase from human thyroid.

Project description:Reductive dehalogenation such as that catalyzed by iodotyrosine deiodinase (IYD) is highly unusual in aerobic organisms but necessary for iodide salvage from iodotyrosine generated during thyroxine biosynthesis. Equally unusual is the dependence of this process on flavin. Rapid kinetics have now been used to define the basic processes involved in IYD catalysis. Time-dependent quenching of flavin fluorescence was used to monitor halotyrosine association to IYD. The substrates chloro-, bromo-, and iodotyrosine bound with similar rate constants (kon) ranging from 1.3 × 10(6) to 1.9 × 10(6) M(-1) s(-1). Only the inert substrate analogue fluorotyrosine exhibited a significantly (5-fold) slower kon (0.3 × 10(6) M(-1) s(-1)). All data fit a standard two-state model and indicated that no intermediate complex accumulated during closure of the active site lid induced by substrate. Subsequent halide elimination does not appear to limit reactions of bromo- and iodotyrosine since both fully oxidized the reduced enzyme with nearly equivalent second-order rate constants (7.3 × 10(3) and 8.6 × 10(3) M(-1) s(-1), respectively) despite the differing strength of their carbon-halogen bonds. In contrast to these substrates, chlorotyrosine reacted with the reduced enzyme approximately 20-fold more slowly and revealed a spectral intermediate that formed at approximately the same rate as the bromo- and iodotyrosine reactions.

Active Site Binding Is Not Sufficient for Reductive Deiodination by Iodotyrosine Deiodinase.

Project description:The minimal requirements for substrate recognition and turnover by iodotyrosine deiodinase were examined to learn the basis for its catalytic specificity. This enzyme is crucial for iodide homeostasis and the generation of thyroid hormone in chordates. 2-Iodophenol binds only very weakly to the human enzyme and is dehalogenated with a kcat/Km that is more than 4 orders of magnitude lower than that for iodotyrosine. This discrimination likely protects against a futile cycle of iodinating and deiodinating precursors of thyroid hormone biosynthesis. Surprisingly, a very similar catalytic selectivity was expressed by a bacterial homologue from Haliscomenobacter hydrossis. In this example, discrimination was not based on affinity since 4-cyano-2-iodophenol bound to the bacterial deiodinase with a Kd lower than that of iodotyrosine and yet was not detectably deiodinated. Other phenols including 2-iodophenol were deiodinated but only very inefficiently. Crystal structures of the bacterial enzyme with and without bound iodotyrosine are nearly superimposable and quite similar to the corresponding structures of the human enzyme. Likewise, the bacterial enzyme is activated for single electron transfer after binding to the substrate analogue fluorotyrosine as previously observed with the human enzyme. A cocrystal structure of bacterial deiodinase and 2-iodophenol indicates that this ligand stacks on the active site flavin mononucleotide (FMN) in a orientation analogous to that of bound iodotyrosine. However, 2-iodophenol association is not sufficient to activate the FMN chemistry required for catalysis, and thus the bacterial enzyme appears to share a similar specificity for halotyrosines even though their physiological roles are likely very different from those in humans.

Substrate Electronics Dominate the Rate of Reductive Dehalogenation Promoted by the Flavin-Dependent Iodotyrosine Deiodinase.

Project description:Iodotyrosine deiodinase (IYD) is unusual in its reliance on flavin to promote reductive dehalogenation of halotyrosines under aerobic conditions. Applications of this activity can be envisioned for bioremediation, but expansion of its specificity requires an understanding of the mechanistic steps that limit the rate of turnover. Key processes capable of controlling steady-state turnover have now been evaluated and described in this study. While proton transfer is necessary for converting the electron-rich substrate into an electrophilic intermediate suitable for reduction, kinetic solvent deuterium isotope effects suggest that this process does not contribute to the overall efficiency of catalysis under neutral conditions. Similarly, reconstituting IYD with flavin analogues demonstrates that a change in reduction potential by as much as 132 mV affects kcat by less than 3-fold. Furthermore, kcat/Km does not correlate with reduction potential and indicates that electron transfer is also not rate determining. Catalytic efficiency is most sensitive to the electronic nature of its substrates. Electron-donating substituents on the ortho position of iodotyrosine stimulate catalysis and conversely electron-withdrawing substituents suppress catalysis. Effects on kcat and kcat/Km range from 22- to 100-fold and fit a linear free-energy correlation with a ρ ranging from -2.1 to -2.8 for human and bacterial IYD. These values are consistent with a rate-determining process of stabilizing the electrophilic and nonaromatic intermediate poised for reduction. Future engineering can now focus on efforts to stabilize this electrophilic intermediate over a broad series of phenolic substrates that are targeted for removal from our environment.

Direct activation of Xenopus iodotyrosine deiodinase by thyroid hormone receptor in the remodeling intestine during amphibian metamorphosis.

Project description:Thyroid hormone (TH) plays critical roles during vertebrate postembryonic development. TH production in the thyroid involves incorporating inorganic iodide into thyroglobulin. The expression of iodotyrosine deiodinase (IYD; also known as iodotyrosine dehalogenase 1) in the thyroid gland ensures efficient recycling of iodine from the byproducts of TH biosynthesis: 3'-monoiodotyrosine and 3', 5'-diiodotyrosine. Interestingly, IYD is known to be expressed in other organs in adult mammals, suggesting iodine recycling outside the thyroid. On the other hand, the developmental role of iodine recycling has yet to be investigated. Here, using intestinal metamorphosis as a model, we discovered that the Xenopus tropicalis IYD gene is strongly up-regulated by TH during metamorphosis in the intestine but not the tail. We further demonstrated that this induction was one of the earliest events during intestinal metamorphosis, with IYD being activated directly through the binding of liganded TH receptors to a TH response element in the IYD promoter region. Because iodide is mainly taken up from the diet in the intestine and the tadpole stops feeding during metamorphosis when the intestine is being remodeled, our findings suggest that IYD transcription is activated by liganded TH receptors early during intestinal remodeling to ensure efficient iodine recycling at the climax of metamorphosis when highest levels of TH are needed for the proper transformations of different organs.

The minimal structure for iodotyrosine deiodinase function is defined by an outlier protein from the thermophilic bacterium Thermotoga neapolitana.

Project description:The nitroreductase superfamily of enzymes encompasses many flavin mononucleotide (FMN)-dependent catalysts promoting a wide range of reactions. All share a common core consisting of an FMN-binding domain, and individual subgroups additionally contain one to three sequence extensions radiating from defined positions within this core to support their unique catalytic properties. To identify the minimum structure required for activity in the iodotyrosine deiodinase subgroup of this superfamily, attention was directed to a representative from the thermophilic organism Thermotoga neapolitana (TnIYD). This representative was selected based on its status as an outlier of the subgroup arising from its deficiency in certain standard motifs evident in all homologues from mesophiles. We found that TnIYD lacked a typical N-terminal sequence and one of its two characteristic sequence extensions, neither of which was found to be necessary for activity. We also show that TnIYD efficiently promotes dehalogenation of iodo-, bromo-, and chlorotyrosine, analogous to related deiodinases (IYDs) from humans and other mesophiles. In addition, 2-iodophenol is a weak substrate for TnIYD as it was for all other IYDs characterized to date. Consistent with enzymes from thermophilic organisms, we observed that TnIYD adopts a compact fold and low surface area compared with IYDs from mesophilic organisms. The insights gained from our investigations on TnIYD demonstrate the advantages of focusing on sequences that diverge from conventional standards to uncover the minimum essentials for activity. We conclude that TnIYD now represents a superior starting structure for future efforts to engineer a stable dehalogenase targeting halophenols of environmental concern.
