A synthetic model of the nonheme iron-superoxo intermediate of cysteine dioxygenase.

ABSTRACT: A nonheme Fe(ii) complex (1) that models substrate-bound cysteine dioxygenase (CDO) reacts with O2 at -80 °C to yield a purple intermediate (2). Analysis with spectroscopic and computational methods determined that 2 features a thiolate-ligated Fe(iii) center bound to a superoxide radical, mimicking the putative structure of a key CDO intermediate.

Spectroscopic and computational investigation of iron(III) cysteine dioxygenase: implications for the nature of the putative superoxo-Fe(III) intermediate.

Project description:Cysteine dioxygenase (CDO) is a mononuclear, non-heme iron-dependent enzyme that converts exogenous cysteine (Cys) to cysteine sulfinic acid using molecular oxygen. Although the complete catalytic mechanism is not yet known, several recent reports presented evidence for an Fe(III)-superoxo reaction intermediate. In this work, we have utilized spectroscopic and computational methods to investigate the as-isolated forms of CDO, as well as Cys-bound Fe(III)CDO, both in the absence and presence of azide (a mimic of superoxide). An analysis of our electronic absorption, magnetic circular dichroism, and electron paramagnetic resonance data of the azide-treated as-isolated forms of CDO within the framework of density functional theory (DFT) computations reveals that azide coordinates directly to the Fe(III), but not the Fe(II) center. An analogous analysis carried out for Cys-Fe(III)CDO provides compelling evidence that at physiological pH, the iron center is six coordinate, with hydroxide occupying the sixth coordination site. Upon incubation of this species with azide, the majority of the active sites retain hydroxide at the iron center. Nonetheless, a modest perturbation of the electronic structure of the Fe(III) center is observed, indicating that azide ions bind near the active site. Additionally, for a small fraction of active sites, azide displaces hydroxide and coordinates directly to the Cys-bound Fe(III) center to generate a low-spin (S = (1)/2) Fe(III) complex. In the DFT-optimized structure of this complex, the central nitrogen atom of the azide moiety lies within 3.12 Å of the cysteine sulfur. A similar orientation of the superoxide ligand in the putative Fe(III)-superoxo reaction intermediate would promote the attack of the distal oxygen atom on the sulfur of substrate Cys.

Trapping and spectroscopic characterization of an FeIII-superoxo intermediate from a nonheme mononuclear iron-containing enzyme.

Project description:Fe(III)-O(2)*(-) intermediates are well known in heme enzymes, but none have been characterized in the nonheme mononuclear Fe(II) enzyme family. Many steps in the O(2) activation and reaction cycle of Fe(II)-containing homoprotocatechuate 2,3-dioxygenase are made detectable by using the alternative substrate 4-nitrocatechol (4NC) and mutation of the active site His200 to Asn (H200N). Here, the first intermediate (Int-1) observed after adding O(2) to the H200N-4NC complex is trapped and characterized using EPR and Mössbauer (MB) spectroscopies. Int-1 is a high-spin (S(1) = 5/2) Fe(III) antiferromagnetically (AF) coupled to an S(2) = 1/2 radical (J ≈ 6 cm(-1) in ). It exhibits parallel-mode EPR signals at g = 8.17 from the S = 2 multiplet, and g = 8.8 and 11.6 from the S = 3 multiplet. These signals are broadened significantly by hyperfine interactions (A((17)O) ≈ 180 MHz). Thus, Int-1 is an AF-coupled species. The experimental observations are supported by density functional theory calculations that show nearly complete transfer of spin density to the bound O(2). Int-1 decays to form a second intermediate (Int-2). MB spectra show that it is also an AF-coupled Fe(III)-radical complex. Int-2 exhibits an EPR signal at g = 8.05 arising from an S = 2 state. The signal is only slightly broadened by (< 3% spin delocalization), suggesting that Int-2 is a peroxo-Fe(III)-4NC semiquinone radical species. Our results demonstrate facile electron transfer between Fe(II), O(2), and the organic ligand, thereby supporting the proposed wild-type enzyme mechanism.

Characterization of a paramagnetic mononuclear nonheme iron-superoxo complex.

Project description:O2 bubbling into a THF solution of Fe(II)(BDPP) (1) at -80 °C generates a reversible bright yellow adduct 2. Characterization by resonance Raman and Mössbauer spectroscopy provides complementary insights into the nature of 2. The former shows a resonance-enhanced vibration at 1125 cm(-1), which can be assigned to the ν(O-O) of a bound superoxide, while the latter reveals the presence of a high-spin iron(III) center that is exchange-coupled to the superoxo ligand, like the Fe(III)-O2(-) pair found for the O2 adduct of 4-nitrocatechol-bound homoprotocatechuate 2,3-dioxygenase. Lastly, 2 oxidizes dihydroanthracene to anthracene, supporting the notion that Fe(III)-O2(-) species can carry out H atom abstraction from a C-H bond to initiate the 4-electron oxidation of substrates proposed for some nonheme iron enzymes.

Oxygen activation at mononuclear nonheme iron centers: a superoxo perspective.

Project description:Dioxygen (O(2)) activation by iron enzymes is responsible for many metabolically important transformations in biology. Often a high-valent iron oxo oxidant is proposed to form upon O(2) activation at a mononuclear nonheme iron center, presumably via intervening iron superoxo and iron peroxo species. While iron(IV) oxo intermediates have been trapped and characterized in enzymes and models, less is known of the putative iron(III) superoxo species. Utilizing a synthetic model for the 2-oxoglutarate-dependent monoiron enzymes, [(Tp(iPr2))Fe(II)(O(2)CC(O)CH(3))], we have obtained indirect evidence for the formation of the putative iron(III) superoxo species, which can undergo one-electron reduction, hydrogen-atom transfer, or conversion to an iron(IV) oxo species, depending on the reaction conditions. These results demonstrate the various roles that the iron(III) superoxo species can play in the course of O(2) activation at a nonheme iron center.

An iron-oxygen intermediate formed during the catalytic cycle of cysteine dioxygenase.

Project description:Cysteine dioxygenase is a key enzyme in the breakdown of cysteine, but its mechanism remains controversial. A combination of spectroscopic and computational studies provides the first evidence of a short-lived intermediate in the catalytic cycle. The intermediate decays within 20 ms and has absorption maxima at 500 and 640 nm.

Iron(II)-thiolate S-oxygenation by O2: synthetic models of cysteine dioxygenase.

Project description:The synthesis of structural and functional models of the active site of the nonheme iron enzyme cysteine dioxygenase (CDO) is reported. A bis(imino)pyridine ligand scaffold was employed to synthesize a mononuclear ferrous complex, Fe(II)(LN(3)S)(OTf) (1), which contains three neutral nitrogen donors and one anionic thiolato donor. Complex 1 is a good structural model of the Cys-bound active site of CDO. Reaction of 1 with O(2) results in oxygenation of the thiolato sulfur, affording the sulfonato complex Fe(II)(LN(3)SO(3))(OTf) (2) under mild conditions. Isotope labeling studies show that O(2) is the sole source of O atoms in the product and that the reaction proceeds via a dioxygenase-type mechanism for two out of three O atoms added, analogous to the dioxygenase reaction of CDO. The zinc(II) analog, Zn(LN(3)S)(OTf) (4), was prepared and found to be completely unreactive toward O(2), suggesting a critical role for Fe(II) in the oxygenation chemistry observed for 1. To our knowledge, S-oxygenation mediated by an Fe(II)-SR complex and O(2) is unprecedented.

Visualizing the substrate-, superoxo-, alkylperoxo-, and product-bound states at the nonheme Fe(II) site of homogentisate dioxygenase.

Project description:Homogentisate 1,2-dioxygenase (HGDO) uses a mononuclear nonheme Fe(2+) to catalyze the oxidative ring cleavage in the degradation of Tyr and Phe by producing maleylacetoacetate from homogentisate (2,5-dihydroxyphenylacetate). Here, we report three crystal structures of HGDO, revealing five different steps in its reaction cycle at 1.7-1.98 Å resolution. The resting state structure displays an octahedral coordination for Fe(2+) with two histidine residues (His331 and His367), a bidentate carboxylate ligand (Glu337), and two water molecules. Homogentisate binds as a monodentate ligand to Fe(2+), and its interaction with Tyr346 invokes the folding of a loop over the active site, effectively shielding it from solvent. Binding of homogentisate is driven by enthalpy and is entropically disfavored as shown by anoxic isothermal titration calorimetry. Three different reaction cycle intermediates have been trapped in different HGDO subunits of a single crystal showing the influence of crystal packing interactions on the course of enzymatic reactions. The observed superoxo:semiquinone-, alkylperoxo-, and product-bound intermediates have been resolved in a crystal grown anoxically with homogentisate, which was subsequently incubated with dioxygen. We demonstrate that, despite different folds, active site architectures, and Fe(2+) coordination, extradiol dioxygenases can proceed through the same principal reaction intermediates to catalyze the O2-dependent cleavage of aromatic rings. Thus, convergent evolution of nonhomologous enzymes using the 2-His-1-carboxylate facial triad motif developed different solutions to stabilize closely related intermediates in unlike environments.

A putative Fe2+-bound persulfenate intermediate in cysteine dioxygenase.

Project description:The common reactions of dioxygen, superoxide, and hydroperoxides with thiolates are thought to proceed via persulfenate intermediates, yet these have never been visualized. Here we report a 1.4 A resolution crystal structure of the Fe(2+)-dependent enzyme cysteine dioxygenase (CDO) containing this putative intermediate trapped in its active site pocket. The complex raises the possibility that, distinct from known dioxygenases and proposed CDO mechanisms, the Fe-proximal oxygen atom may be involved in the primary oxidation event yielding a unique three-membered Fe-S-O cyclic intermediate. A nonpolar environment of the distal oxygen would facilitate isomerization of the persulfenate to the sulfinate product.

Mechanistic Insight into the Nitric Oxide Dioxygenation Reaction of Nonheme Iron(III)-Superoxo and Manganese(IV)-Peroxo Complexes.

Project description:Reactions of nonheme Fe(III) -superoxo and Mn(IV) -peroxo complexes bearing a common tetraamido macrocyclic ligand (TAML), namely [(TAML)Fe(III) (O2 )](2-) and [(TAML)Mn(IV) (O2 )](2-) , with nitric oxide (NO) afford the Fe(III) -NO3 complex [(TAML)Fe(III) (NO3 )](2-) and the Mn(V) -oxo complex [(TAML)Mn(V) (O)](-) plus NO2 (-) , respectively. Mechanistic studies, including density functional theory (DFT) calculations, reveal that M(III) -peroxynitrite (M=Fe and Mn) species, generated in the reactions of [(TAML)Fe(III) (O2 )](2-) and [(TAML)Mn(IV) (O2 )](2-) with NO, are converted into M(IV) (O) and (.) NO2 species through O-O bond homolysis of the peroxynitrite ligand. Then, a rebound of Fe(IV) (O) with (.) NO2 affords [(TAML)Fe(III) (NO3 )](2-) , whereas electron transfer from Mn(IV) (O) to (.) NO2 yields [(TAML)Mn(V) (O)](-) plus NO2 (-) .

Characterization of the nonheme iron center of cysteamine dioxygenase and its interaction with substrates.

Project description:Cysteamine dioxygenase (ADO) has been reported to exhibit two distinct biological functions with a nonheme iron center. It catalyzes oxidation of both cysteamine in sulfur metabolism and N-terminal cysteine-containing proteins or peptides, such as regulator of G protein signaling 5 (RGS5). It thereby preserves oxygen homeostasis in a variety of physiological processes. However, little is known about its catalytic center and how it interacts with these two types of primary substrates in addition to O2 Here, using electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR), Mössbauer, and UV-visible spectroscopies, we explored the binding mode of cysteamine and RGS5 to human and mouse ADO proteins in their physiologically relevant ferrous form. This characterization revealed that in the presence of nitric oxide as a spin probe and oxygen surrogate, both the small molecule and the peptide substrates coordinate the iron center with their free thiols in a monodentate binding mode, in sharp contrast to binding behaviors observed in other thiol dioxygenases. We observed a substrate-bound B-type dinitrosyl iron center complex in ADO, suggesting the possibility of dioxygen binding to the iron ion in a side-on mode. Moreover, we observed substrate-mediated reduction of the iron center from ferric to the ferrous oxidation state. Subsequent MS analysis indicated corresponding disulfide formation of the substrates, suggesting that the presence of the substrate could reactivate ADO to defend against oxidative stress. The findings of this work contribute to the understanding of the substrate interaction in ADO and fill a gap in our knowledge of the substrate specificity of thiol dioxygenases.
