Staphylopine, pseudopaline, and yersinopine dehydrogenases: A structural and kinetic analysis of a new functional class of opine dehydrogenase.

ABSTRACT: Opine dehydrogenases (ODHs) from the bacterial pathogens Staphylococcus aureus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Yersinia pestis perform the final enzymatic step in the biosynthesis of a new class of opine metallophores, which includes staphylopine, pseudopaline, and yersinopine, respectively. Growing evidence indicates an important role for this pathway in metal acquisition and virulence, including in lung and burn-wound infections (P. aeruginosa) and in blood and heart infections (S. aureus). Here, we present kinetic and structural characterizations of these three opine dehydrogenases. A steady-state kinetic analysis revealed that the three enzymes differ in ?-keto acid and NAD(P)H substrate specificity and nicotianamine-like substrate stereoselectivity. The structural basis for these differences was determined from five ODH X-ray crystal structures, ranging in resolution from 1.9 to 2.5 Å, with or without NADP+ bound. Variation in hydrogen bonding with NADPH suggested an explanation for the differential recognition of this substrate by these three enzymes. Our analysis further revealed candidate residues in the active sites required for binding of the ?-keto acid and nicotianamine-like substrates and for catalysis. This work reports the first structural kinetic analyses of enzymes involved in opine metallophore biosynthesis in three important bacterial pathogens of humans.

Project description:Co-ordination of catalytic Zn2+ in sorbitol/xylitol dehydrogenases of the medium-chain dehydrogenase/reductase superfamily involves direct or water-mediated interactions from a glutamic acid residue, which substitutes a homologous cysteine ligand in alcohol dehydrogenases of the yeast and liver type. Glu154 of xylitol dehydrogenase from the yeast Galactocandida mastotermitis (termed GmXDH) was mutated to a cysteine residue (E154C) to revert this replacement. In spite of their variable Zn2+ content (0.10-0.40 atom/subunit), purified preparations of E154C exhibited a constant catalytic Zn2+ centre activity (kcat) of 1.19+/-0.03 s(-1) and did not require exogenous Zn2+ for activity or stability. E154C retained 0.019+/-0.003% and 0.74+/-0.03% of wild-type catalytic efficiency (kcat/K(sorbitol)=7800+/-700 M(-1) x s(-1)) and kcat (=161+/-4 s(-1)) for NAD+-dependent oxidation of sorbitol at 25 degrees C respectively. The pH profile of kcat/K(sorbitol) for E154C decreased below an apparent pK of 9.1+/-0.3, reflecting a shift in pK by about +1.7-1.9 pH units compared with the corresponding pH profiles for GmXDH and sheep liver sorbitol dehydrogenase (termed slSDH). The difference in pK for profiles determined in 1H2O and 2H2O solvent was similar and unusually small for all three enzymes (approximately +0.2 log units), suggesting that the observed pK in the binary enzyme-NAD+ complexes could be due to Zn2+-bound water. Under conditions eliminating their different pH-dependences, wild-type and mutant GmXDH displayed similar primary and solvent deuterium kinetic isotope effects of 1.7+/-0.2 (E154C, 1.7+/-0.1) and 1.9+/-0.3 (E154C, 2.4+/-0.2) on kcat/K(sorbitol) respectively. Transient kinetic studies of NAD+ reduction and proton release during sorbitol oxidation by slSDH at pH 8.2 show that two protons are lost with a rate constant of 687+/-12 s(-1) in the pre-steady state, which features a turnover of 0.9+/-0.1 enzyme equivalents as NADH was produced with a rate constant of 409+/-3 s(-1). The results support an auxiliary participation of Glu154 in catalysis, and possible mechanisms of proton transfer in sorbitol/xylitol dehydrogenases are discussed.
