Structure-efficiency relationship of photoinduced electron transfer-triggered nitric oxide releasers.

ABSTRACT: Spatiotemporally controllable nitric oxide (NO) releasers are required for biological studies and as candidate therapeutic agents. Here, we investigate the structure-efficiency relationship of a series of photoinduced electron transfer-triggered NO releasers based on our reported yellowish-green light-controllable NO releaser, NO-Rosa. The distance between the NO-releasing N-nitrosoaminophenol moiety and the rosamine antenna moiety was critical for efficient NO release. Notably, substitution at the phenolic hydroxyl group blocked NO release. We synthesized NO-Rosa-Gal bearing D-galactose (Gal) at this location, and showed that hydrolysis by ?-galactosidase restored the photoresponse. This represents proof-of-concept of a strategy for highly specific control of NO release by using a double-lock system involving both enzymatic reactivation and photo-control.

Project description:Nitric oxide synthase (NOS), a flavo-hemoprotein, tightly regulates nitric oxide (NO) synthesis and thereby its dual biological activities as a key signaling molecule for vasodilatation and neurotransmission at low concentrations, and also as a defensive cytotoxin at higher concentrations. Three NOS isoforms, iNOS, eNOS and nNOS (inducible, endothelial, and neuronal NOS), achieve their key biological functions by tight regulation of interdomain electron transfer (IET) process via interdomain interactions. In particular, the FMN-heme IET is essential in coupling electron transfer in the reductase domain with NO synthesis in the heme domain by delivery of electrons required for O(2) activation at the catalytic heme site. Compelling evidence indicates that calmodulin (CaM) activates NO synthesis in eNOS and nNOS through a conformational change of the FMN domain from its shielded electron-accepting (input) state to a new electron-donating (output) state, and that CaM is also required for proper alignment of the domains. Another exciting recent development in NOS enzymology is the discovery of importance of the the FMN domain motions in modulating reactivity and structure of the catalytic heme active site (in addition to the primary role of controlling the IET processes). In the absence of a structure of full-length NOS, an integrated approach of spectroscopic (e.g. pulsed EPR, MCD, resonance Raman), rapid kinetics (laser flash photolysis and stopped flow) and mutagenesis methods is critical to unravel the molecular details of the interdomain FMN/heme interactions. This is to investigate the roles of dynamic conformational changes of the FMN domain and the docking between the primary functional FMN and heme domains in regulating NOS activity. The recent developments in understanding of mechanisms of the NOS regulation that are driven by the combined approach are the focuses of this review. An improved understanding of the role of interdomain FMN/heme interaction and CaM binding may serve as the basis for the design of new selective inhibitors of NOS isoforms.
