Interaction of GoxA with Its Modifying Enzyme and Its Subunit Assembly Are Dependent on the Extent of Cysteine Tryptophylquinone Biosynthesis.

ABSTRACT: GoxA is a glycine oxidase bearing a protein-derived cysteine tryptophylquinone (CTQ) cofactor that is formed by posttranslational modifications catalyzed by a flavoprotein, GoxB. Two forms of GoxA were isolated: an active form with mature CTQ and an inactive precursor protein that lacked CTQ. The active GoxA was present as a homodimer with no detectable affinity for GoxB, whereas the precursor was isolated as a monomer in a tight complex with one GoxB. Thus, the interaction of GoxA with GoxB and subunit assembly of mature GoxA are each dependent on the extent of CTQ biosynthesis.

Roles of Conserved Residues of the Glycine Oxidase GoxA in Controlling Activity, Cooperativity, Subunit Composition, and Cysteine Tryptophylquinone Biosynthesis.

Project description:GoxA is a glycine oxidase that possesses a cysteine tryptophylquinone (CTQ) cofactor that is formed by posttranslational modifications that are catalyzed by a modifying enzyme GoxB. It is the second known tryptophylquinone enzyme to function as an oxidase, the other being the lysine ?-oxidase, LodA. All other enzymes containing CTQ or tryptophan tryptophylquinone (TTQ) cofactors are dehydrogenases. Kinetic analysis of GoxA revealed allosteric cooperativity for its glycine substrate, but not O2 This is the first CTQ- or TTQ-dependent enzyme to exhibit cooperativity. Here, we show that cooperativity and homodimer stabilization are strongly dependent on the presence of Phe-237. Conversion of this residue, which is a Tyr in LodA, to Tyr or Ala eliminates the cooperativity and destabilizes the dimer. These mutations also significantly affect the kcat and Km values for the substrates. On the basis of structural and modeling studies, a mechanism by which Phe-237 exerts this influence is presented. Two active site residues, Asp-547 and His-466, were also examined and shown by site-directed mutagenesis to be critical for CTQ biogenesis. This result is compared with the results of similar studies of mutagenesis of structurally conserved residues of other tryptophylquinone enzymes. These results provide insight into the roles of specific active-site residues in catalysis and CTQ biogenesis, as well as describing an interesting mechanism by which a single residue can dictate whether or not an enzyme exhibits cooperative allosteric behavior toward a substrate.

The Redox Properties of a Cysteine Tryptophylquinone-Dependent Glycine Oxidase Are Distinct from Those of Tryptophylquinone-Dependent Dehydrogenases.

Project description:GoxA is a cysteine tryptophylquinone (CTQ)-dependent glycine oxidase that is a member of a family of LodA-like proteins. The electrochemical midpoint potential ( Em) values for the quinone/semiquinone couple and the semiquinone/quinol couple were determined to be 111 and 21, respectively. The Em value for the overall two-electron quinone/quinol couple was similar to those of CTQ- and tryptophan tryptophylquinone (TTQ)-bearing dehydrogenases. However, for the well-studied TTQ-dependent methylamine dehydrogenase, the quinone/semiquinone couple is more negative than the semiquinone/quinol couple, the opposite of what was determined for GoxA. The change in Em value for the two-electron quinone/quinol couple of CTQ in GoxA with pH indicates that the overall two-electron transfer process is associated with the transfer of one proton. Thus, the quinol is anionic. The data reported herein further suggest that in GoxA the CTQ semiquinone is neutral, in contrast to the TTQ-dependent dehydrogenases, in which it is an anionic TTQ semiquinone. These results are discussed in the context of the structure and function of this glycine oxidase, compared to that of the tryptophylquinone-dependent dehydrogenases.

MauG, a diheme enzyme that catalyzes tryptophan tryptophylquinone biosynthesis by remote catalysis.

Project description:MauG contains two c-type hemes with atypical physical and catalytic properties. While most c-type cytochromes function simply as electron transfer mediators, MauG catalyzes the completion of tryptophan tryptophylquinone (TTQ)(1) biosynthesis within a precursor protein of methylamine dehydrogenase. This posttranslational modification is a six-electron oxidation that requires crosslinking of two Trp residues, oxygenation of a Trp residue and oxidation of the resulting quinol to TTQ. These reactions proceed via a bis-Fe(IV) state in which one heme is present as Fe(IV)O and the other is Fe(IV) with axial heme ligands provided by His and Tyr side chains. Catalysis does not involve direct contact between the protein substrate and either heme of MauG. Instead it is accomplished by remote catalysis using a hole hopping mechanism of electron transfer in which Trp residues of MauG are reversibly oxidized. In this process, long range electron transfer is coupled to the radical mediated chemical reactions that are required for TTQ biosynthesis.

Characterization of PlGoxB, a flavoprotein required for cysteine tryptophylquinone biosynthesis in glycine oxidase from Pseudoalteromonas luteoviolacea.

Project description:LodA-like proteins are oxidases with a protein-derived cysteine tryptophylquinone (CTQ) prosthetic group. In Pseudoalteromonas luteoviolacea glycine oxidase (PlGoxA), CTQ biosynthesis requires post-translational modifications catalyzed by a modifying enzyme encoded by PlgoxB. The PlGoxB protein was expressed and shown to possess a flavin cofactor. PlGoxB was unstable in solution as it readily lost the flavin and precipitated. PlGoxB precipitation was significantly reduced by incubation with either excess FAD or an equal concentration of prePlGoxA, the precursor protein that is its substrate. In contrast, the mature CTQ-bearing PlGoxA had no stabilizing effect. A homology model of PlGoxB was generated using the structure of Alkylhalidase CmIS. The FAD-binding site of PlGoxB in the model was nearly identical to that of the template structure. The bound FAD in PlGoxB had significant solvent exposure, consistent with the observed tendency to lose FAD. This also suggested that interaction of prePlGoxA with PlGoxB at the exposed FAD-binding site could prevent the observed loss of FAD and subsequent precipitation of PlGoxB. A docking model of the putative PlGoxB-prePlGoxA complex was consistent with these hypotheses. The experimental results and computational analysis implicate structural features of PlGoxB that contribute to its stability and function.

Roles of active site residues in LodA, a cysteine tryptophylquinone dependent ε-lysine oxidase.

Project description:Site-directed mutagenesis identified residues in the substrate channel of LodA that play multiple roles in regulating Km values of substrates, kcat and the extent of biosynthesis of the protein-derived cysteine tryptophylquinone (CTQ) cofactor. Mutations of Cys448 increase Km values for lysine and O2, with the larger effect on Klysine. Tyr211 resides within a mobile loop and is seen in the crystal structure of LodA to form a hydrogen bond with Lys530 that appears to stabilize its position in the channel. Y211F LodA had reduced levels of CTQ but near normal levels of kcat. K530A and K530R variants exhibited diminished levels of CTQ but significantly increased kcat. The Y211F, K530A and K530R mutations each caused large increases in the Km values for lysine and O2. These effects of the mutations of Tyr211 and Lys530 suggest that when these residues are hydrogen-bonded they may form a gate that controls entry and exit of substrates and products from the active site. Y211A and Y211E variants had the highest level of CTQ but exhibited no activity. These results highlight the different evolutionary factors that must be considered for enzymes which possess protein-derived cofactors, in which the catalytic cofactor must be generated by posttranslational modifications.

Structure and Enzymatic Properties of an Unusual Cysteine Tryptophylquinone-Dependent Glycine Oxidase from Pseudoalteromonas luteoviolacea.

Project description:Glycine oxidase from Pseudoalteromonas luteoviolacea (PlGoxA) is a cysteine tryptophylquinone (CTQ)-dependent enzyme. Sequence analysis and phylogenetic analysis place it in a newly designated subgroup (group IID) of a recently identified family of LodA-like proteins, which are predicted to possess CTQ. The crystal structure of PlGoxA reveals that it is a homotetramer. It possesses an N-terminal domain with no close structural homologues in the Protein Data Bank. The active site is quite small because of intersubunit interactions, which may account for the observed cooperativy toward glycine. Steady-state kinetic analysis yielded the following values: kcat = 6.0 ± 0.2 s-1, K0.5 = 187 ± 18 ?M, and h = 1.77 ± 0.27. In contrast to other quinoprotein amine dehydrogenases and oxidases that exhibit anomalously large primary kinetic isotope effects on the rate of reduction of the quinone cofactor by the amine substrate, no significant primary kinetic isotope effect was observed for this reaction of PlGoxA. The absorbance spectrum of glycine-reduced PlGoxA exhibits features in the range of 400-650 nm that have not previously been seen in other quinoproteins. Thus, in addition to the unusual structural features of PlGoxA, the kinetic and chemical reaction mechanisms of the reductive half-reaction of PlGoxA appear to be distinct from those of other amine dehydrogenases and amine oxidases that use tryptophylquinone and tyrosylquinone cofactors.

Mutagenesis of tryptophan199 suggests that hopping is required for MauG-dependent tryptophan tryptophylquinone biosynthesis.

Project description:The diheme enzyme MauG catalyzes the posttranslational modification of the precursor protein of methylamine dehydrogenase (preMADH) to complete biosynthesis of its protein-derived tryptophan tryptophylquinone (TTQ) cofactor. Catalysis proceeds through a high valent bis-Fe(IV) redox state and requires long-range electron transfer (ET), as the distance between the modified residues of preMADH and the nearest heme iron of MauG is 19.4 ?. Trp199 of MauG resides at the MauG-preMADH interface, positioned midway between the residues that are modified and the nearest heme. W199F and W199K mutations did not affect the spectroscopic and redox properties of MauG, or its ability to stabilize the bis-Fe(IV) state. Crystal structures of complexes of W199F/K MauG with preMADH showed no significant perturbation of the MauG-preMADH structure or protein interface. However, neither MauG variant was able to synthesize TTQ from preMADH. In contrast, an ET reaction from diferrous MauG to quinone MADH, which does not require the bis-Fe(IV) intermediate, was minimally affected by the W199F/K mutations. W199F/K MauGs were able to oxidize quinol MADH to form TTQ, the putative final two-electron oxidation of the biosynthetic process, but with k(cat)/K(m) values approximately 10% that of wild-type MauG. The differential effects of the W199F/K mutations on these three different reactions are explained by a critical role for Trp199 in mediating multistep hopping from preMADH to bis-Fe(IV) MauG during the long-range ET that is required for TTQ biosynthesis.

Structural basis for tRNA-dependent cysteine biosynthesis.

Project description:Cysteine can be synthesized by tRNA-dependent mechanism using a two-step indirect pathway, where O-phosphoseryl-tRNA synthetase (SepRS) catalyzes the ligation of a mismatching O-phosphoserine (Sep) to tRNACys followed by the conversion of tRNA-bounded Sep into cysteine by Sep-tRNA:Cys-tRNA synthase (SepCysS). In ancestral methanogens, a third protein SepCysE forms a bridge between the two enzymes to create a ternary complex named the transsulfursome. By combination of X-ray crystallography, SAXS and EM, together with biochemical evidences, here we show that the three domains of SepCysE each bind SepRS, SepCysS, and tRNACys, respectively, which mediates the dynamic architecture of the transsulfursome and thus enables a global long-range channeling of tRNACys between SepRS and SepCysS distant active sites. This channeling mechanism could facilitate the consecutive reactions of the two-step indirect pathway of Cys-tRNACys synthesis (tRNA-dependent cysteine biosynthesis) to prevent challenge of translational fidelity, and may reflect the mechanism that cysteine was originally added into genetic code.

Diradical intermediate within the context of tryptophan tryptophylquinone biosynthesis.

Project description:Despite the importance of tryptophan (Trp) radicals in biology, very few radicals have been trapped and characterized in a physiologically meaningful context. Here we demonstrate that the diheme enzyme MauG uses Trp radical chemistry to catalyze formation of a Trp-derived tryptophan tryptophylquinone cofactor on its substrate protein, premethylamine dehydrogenase. The unusual six-electron oxidation that results in tryptophan tryptophylquinone formation occurs in three discrete two-electron catalytic steps. Here the exact order of these oxidation steps in the processive six-electron biosynthetic reaction is determined, and reaction intermediates are structurally characterized. The intermediates observed in crystal structures are also verified in solution using mass spectrometry. Furthermore, an unprecedented Trp-derived diradical species on premethylamine dehydrogenase, which is an intermediate in the first two-electron step, is characterized using high-frequency and -field electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy and UV-visible absorbance spectroscopy. This work defines a unique mechanism for radical-mediated catalysis of a protein substrate, and has broad implications in the areas of applied biocatalysis and understanding of oxidative protein modification during oxidative stress.

Tryptophan tryptophylquinone biosynthesis: a radical approach to posttranslational modification.

Project description:Protein-derived cofactors are formed by irreversible covalent posttranslational modification of amino acid residues. An example is tryptophan tryptophylquinone (TTQ) found in the enzyme methylamine dehydrogenase (MADH). TTQ biosynthesis requires the cross-linking of the indole rings of two Trp residues and the insertion of two oxygen atoms onto adjacent carbons of one of the indole rings. The diheme enzyme MauG catalyzes the completion of TTQ within a precursor protein of MADH. The preMADH substrate contains a single hydroxyl group on one of the tryptophans and no crosslink. MauG catalyzes a six-electron oxidation that completes TTQ assembly and generates fully active MADH. These oxidation reactions proceed via a high valent bis-Fe(IV) state in which one heme is present as Fe(IV)=O and the other is Fe(IV) with both axial heme ligands provided by amino acid side chains. The crystal structure of MauG in complex with preMADH revealed that catalysis does not involve direct contact between the hemes of MauG and the protein substrate. Rather it is accomplished through long-range electron transfer, which presumably generates radical intermediates. Kinetic, spectrophotometric, and site-directed mutagenesis studies are beginning to elucidate how the MauG protein controls the reactivity of the hemes and mediates the long range electron/radical transfer required for catalysis. This article is part of a Special Issue entitled: Radical SAM enzymes and Radical Enzymology.
