Repair of Iron Center Proteins-A Different Class of Hemerythrin-like Proteins.

ABSTRACT: Repair of Iron Center proteins (RIC) form a family of di-iron proteins that are widely spread in the microbial world. RICs contain a binuclear nonheme iron site in a four-helix bundle fold, two basic features of hemerythrin-like proteins. In this work, we review the data on microbial RICs including how their genes are regulated and contribute to the survival of pathogenic bacteria. We gathered the currently available biochemical, spectroscopic and structural data on RICs with a particular focus on Escherichia coli RIC (also known as YtfE), which remains the best-studied protein with extensive biochemical characterization. Additionally, we present novel structural data for Escherichia coli YtfE harboring a di-manganese site and the protein's affinity for this metal. The networking of protein interactions involving YtfE is also described and integrated into the proposed physiological role as an iron donor for reassembling of stress-damaged iron-sulfur centers.

Project description:Flavodiiron proteins (FDPs) play important roles in the microbial nitrosative stress response in low-oxygen environments by reductively scavenging nitric oxide (NO). Recently, we showed that FMN-free diferrous FDP from Thermotoga maritima exposed to 1 equiv NO forms a stable diiron-mononitrosyl complex (deflavo-FDP(NO)) that can react further with NO to form N(2)O [Hayashi, T.; Caranto, J. D.; Wampler, D. A; Kurtz, D. M., Jr.; Moënne-Loccoz, P. Biochemistry 2010, 49, 7040-7049]. Here we report resonance Raman and low-temperature photolysis FTIR data that better define the structure of this diiron-mononitrosyl complex. We first validate this approach using the stable diiron-mononitrosyl complex of hemerythrin, Hr(NO), for which we observe a ν(NO) at 1658 cm(-1), the lowest ν(NO) ever reported for a nonheme {FeNO}(7) species. Both deflavo-FDP(NO) and the mononitrosyl adduct of the flavinated FPD (FDP(NO)) show ν(NO) at 1681 cm(-1), which is also unusually low. These results indicate that, in Hr(NO) and FDP(NO), the coordinated NO is exceptionally electron rich, more closely approaching the Fe(III)(NO(-)) resonance structure. In the case of Hr(NO), this polarization may be promoted by steric enforcement of an unusually small FeNO angle, while in FDP(NO), the Fe(III)(NO(-)) structure may be due to a semibridging electrostatic interaction with the second Fe(II) ion. In Hr(NO), accessibility and steric constraints prevent further reaction of the diiron-mononitrosyl complex with NO, whereas in FDP(NO) the increased nucleophilicity of the nitrosyl group may promote attack by a second NO to produce N(2)O. This latter scenario is supported by theoretical modeling [Blomberg, L. M.; Blomberg, M. R.; Siegbahn, P. E. J. Biol. Inorg. Chem. 2007, 12, 79-89]. Published vibrational data on bioengineered models of denitrifying heme-nonheme NO reductases [Hayashi, T.; Miner, K. D.; Yeung, N.; Lin, Y.-W.; Lu, Y.; Moënne-Loccoz, P. Biochemistry 2011, 50, 5939-5947 ] support a similar mode of activation of a heme {FeNO}(7) species by the nearby nonheme Fe(II).
