Nitric Oxide Reductase Activity in Heme-Nonheme Binuclear Engineered Myoglobins through a One-Electron Reduction Cycle.

ABSTRACT: FeBMbs are structural and functional models of native bacterial nitric oxide reductases (NORs) generated through engineering of myoglobin. These biosynthetic models replicate the heme-nonheme diiron site of NORs and allow substitutions of metal centers and heme cofactors. Here, we provide evidence for multiple NOR turnover in monoformyl-heme-containing FeBMb1 proteins loaded with FeII, CoII, or ZnII metal ions at the FeB site (FeII/CoII/ZnII-FeBMb1(MF-heme)). FTIR detection of the ?(NNO) band of N2O at 2231 cm-1 provides a direct quantitative measurement of the product in solution. A maximum number of turnover is observed with FeII-FeBMb1(MF-heme), but the NOR activity is retained when the FeB site is loaded with ZnII. These data support the viability of a one-electron semireduced pathway for the reduction of NO at binuclear centers in reducing conditions.

Project description:Denitrifying NO reductases are transmembrane protein complexes that are evolutionarily related to heme/copper terminal oxidases. They utilize a heme/nonheme diiron center to reduce two NO molecules to N2O. Engineering a nonheme Fe(B) site within the heme distal pocket of sperm whale myoglobin has offered well-defined diiron clusters for the investigation of the mechanism of NO reduction in these unique active sites. In this study, we use FTIR spectroscopy to monitor the production of N2O in solution and to show that the presence of a distal Fe(B)(II) is not sufficient to produce the expected product. However, the addition of a glutamate side chain peripheral to the diiron site allows for 50% of a productive single-turnover reaction. Unproductive reactions are characterized by resonance Raman spectroscopy as dinitrosyl complexes, where one NO molecule is bound to the heme iron to form a five-coordinate low-spin {FeNO}(7) species with ?(FeNO)(heme) and ?(NO)(heme) at 522 and 1660 cm(-1), and a second NO molecule is bound to the nonheme Fe(B) site with a ?(NO)(FeB) at 1755 cm(-1). Stopped-flow UV-vis absorption coupled with rapid-freeze-quench resonance Raman spectroscopy provide a detailed map of the reaction coordinates leading to the unproductive iron-nitrosyl dimer. Unexpectedly, NO binding to Fe(B) is kinetically favored and occurs prior to the binding of a second NO to the heme iron, leading to a (six-coordinate low-spin heme-nitrosyl/FeB-nitrosyl) transient dinitrosyl complex with characteristic ?(FeNO)(heme) at 570 ± 2 cm(-1) and ?(NO)(FeB) at 1755 cm(-1). Without the addition of a peripheral glutamate, the dinitrosyl complex is converted to a dead-end product after the dissociation of the proximal histidine of the heme iron, but the added peripheral glutamate side chain in Fe(B)Mb2 lowers the rate of dissociation of the promixal histidine which in turn allows the (six-coordinate low-spin heme-nitrosyl/Fe(B)-nitrosyl) transient dinitrosyl complex to decay with production of N2O at a rate of 0.7 s(-1) at 4 °C. Taken together, our results support the proposed trans mechanism of NO reduction in NORs.

Project description:Denitrifying NO reductases are transmembrane protein complexes that utilize a heme/nonheme diiron center at their active sites to reduce two NO molecules to the innocuous gas N2O. Fe(B)Mb proteins, with their nonheme iron sites engineered into the heme distal pocket of sperm whale myoglobin, are attractive models for studying the molecular details of the NO reduction reaction. Spectroscopic and structural studies of Fe(B)Mb constructs have confirmed that they reproduce the metal coordination spheres observed at the active site of the cytochrome c-dependent NO reductase from Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Exposure of Fe(B)Mb to excess NO, as examined by analytical and spectroscopic techniques, results primarily in the formation of a five-coordinate heme-nitrosyl complex without N2O production. However, substitution of the outer-sphere residue Ile107 with a glutamic acid (i.e., I107E) decreases the formation rate of the five-coordinate heme-nitrosyl complex and allows for the substoichiometric production of N2O. Here, we aim to better characterize the formation of the five-coordinate heme-nitrosyl complex and to explain why the level of N2O production increases with the I107E substitution. We follow the formation of the five-coordinate heme-nitrosyl inhibitory complex through the sequential exposure of Fe(B)Mb to different NO isotopomers using rapid-freeze-quench resonance Raman spectroscopy. The data show that the complex is formed by the displacement of the proximal histidine by a new NO molecule after the weakening of the Fe(II)-His bond in the intermediate six-coordinate low-spin (6cLS) heme-nitrosyl complex. These results lead us to explore diatomic migration within the scaffold of myoglobin and whether substitutions at residue 107 can be sufficient to control access to the proximal heme cavities. Results on a new Fe(B)Mb construct with an I107F substitution (Fe(B)Mb3) show an increased rate for the formation of the five-coordinate low-spin heme-nitrosyl complex without N2O production. Taken together, our results suggest that production of N2O from the [6cLS heme {FeNO}(7)/{Fe(B)NO}(7)] trans iron-nitrosyl dimer intermediate requires a proton transfer event facilitated by an outer-sphere residue such as E107 in Fe(B)Mb2 and E280 in P. aeruginosa cNOR.

Project description:The first use of a dinuclear UIII/UIII complex in the activation of small molecules is reported. The octadentate Schiff-base pyrrole, anthracene-hinged 'Pacman' ligand LA combines two strongly reducing UIII centres and three borohydride ligands in [M(THF)4][{U(BH4)}2(?-BH4)(LA)(THF)2] 1-M, (M = Li, Na, K). The two borohydride ligands bound to uranium outside the macrocyclic cleft are readily substituted by aryloxide ligands, resulting in a single, weakly-bound, encapsulated endo group 1 metal borohydride bridging the two UIII centres in [{U(OAr)}2(?-MBH4)(LA)(THF)2] 2-M (OAr = OC6H2t Bu3-2,4,6, M = Na, K). X-ray crystallographic analysis shows that, for 2-K, in addition to the endo-BH4 ligand the potassium counter-cation is also incorporated into the cleft through ?5-interactions with the pyrrolides instead of extraneous donor solvent. As such, 2-K has a significantly higher solubility in non-polar solvents and a wider U-U separation compared to the 'ate' complex 1. The cooperative reducing capability of the two UIII centres now enforced by the large and relatively flexible macrocycle is compared for the two complexes, recognising that the borohydrides can provide additional reducing capability, and that the aryloxide-capped 2-K is constrained to reactions within the cleft. The reaction between 1-Na and S8 affords an insoluble, presumably polymeric paramagnetic complex with bridging uranium sulfides, while that with CS2 results in oxidation of each UIII to the notably high UV oxidation state, forming the unusual trithiocarbonate (CS3)2- as a ligand in [{U(CS3)}2(?-?2:?2-CS3)(LA)] (4). The reaction between 2-K and S8 results in quantitative substitution of the endo-KBH4 by a bridging persulfido (S2)2- group and oxidation of each UIII to UIV, yielding [{U(OAr)}2(?-?2:?2-S2)(LA)] (5). The reaction of 2-K with CS2 affords a thermally unstable adduct which is tentatively assigned as containing a carbon disulfido (CS2)2- ligand bridging the two U centres (6a), but only the mono-bridged sulfido (S)2- complex [{U(OAr)}2(?-S)(LA)] (6) is isolated. The persulfido complex (5) can also be synthesised from the mono-bridged sulfido complex (6) by the addition of another equivalent of sulfur.
