A reinvestigation of the substrate specificity of pig kidney diamine oxidase.

ABSTRACT: 1. The substrate specificity of pig kidney diamine oxidase was reinvestigated with a purer enzyme preparation than has previously been used for this purpose. 2. All substrates were extensively purified before use, and methods of preparation or sources are given, together with R(F) values. 3. The substrate specificity determined differed somewhat from that reported by previous workers and, in addition, the behaviour of several compounds not previously used as substrates is described. 4. A model for enzyme-substrate interaction embodying these observations is formulated. It is suggested that a negatively charged substrate-binding group is situated at 6.0-9.0 A from the oxidizing site. The binding and oxidizing sites are separated by a hydrophobic or methylene-binding site.

Inhibition of pig kidney diamine oxidase by substrate analogues.

Project description:1. The oxidation of p-dimethylaminomethylbenzylamine was followed spectrophotometrically by measuring the change in E(250) caused by the p-dimethylaminomethylbenzaldehyde produced. 2. This reaction was inhibited by substrate analogues such as isothiouronium, guanidino, dimethylsulphonium and trimethylammonium compounds. 3. The inhibition by both mono- and bis-onium compounds has been studied and a comprehensive theory is developed to explain both the type and degree of inhibition produced.

Synthesis and oxidation of aminoalkyl-onium compounds by pig kidney diamine oxidase.

Project description:1. The preparation of a series of compounds derived from diamines by replacing one amino group by a dimethylsulphonium, isothiuronium, trimethylammonium, NN'-dimethylimidazolium or N-methylpyridinium species is described. 2. The behaviour of these compounds as substrates of pig kidney diamine oxidase is reported. All but the trimethylammonium compounds proved to be substrates. 3. Many of these compounds showed potent inhibition at high substrate concentration and this was studied. 4. On the basis of these and other observations a scheme for enzyme-substrate interaction is suggested.

The glycoprotein nature of pig kidney diamine oxidase. Role of disulphide groups and arginine residues in the concanavalin A-diamine oxidase interaction.

Project description:Pig kidney diamine oxidase (DAO) was found to contain 5% (w/w) natural hexose, 3.25% glucosamine, 2.61% N-acetylglucosamine and 0.25% N-acetylneuraminic acid. The enzyme exhibited strong affinity towards concanavalin A (Con A) with a stoichiometry of 1:4.6. The kinetics of interaction approached an apparent first-order rate, with a rate constant (Kapp.) value of 1.5 x 10(-2) min-1. The enzyme reduced with dithiothreitol followed by alkylation with iodoacetamide showed an increase in the stoichiometry of the Con A-DAO interaction. Similarly arginine modification by phenylglyoxal caused decreased affinity, with an altered Kapp. value of 9.09 x 10(-3) min-1. The results suggest that, besides the carbohydrate content, the protein moiety of the enzyme also plays a significant role in the Con A-DAO interaction.

Oxidation of p-dimethylaminomethylbenzylamine by pig kidney diamine oxidase. A new method for spectrophotometric assay.

Project description:1. The oxidation of some para-substituted benzylamines by diamine oxidase produces the corresponding aldehydes. This was studied to develop a spectrophotometric method for following the enzyme reaction, as the aldehydes produced absorb strongly at 250nm where the substrates are almost optically transparent. 2. p-Dimethylaminomethylbenzylamine was the most useful substrate and full details of its preparation are given. The synthesis of its related oxidation product, p-dimethylaminomethylbenzaldehyde, is also described. 3. The effects of variations in pH, ionic strength, temperature and oxygenation on the reaction are described and the usefulness of the method is illustrated by several applications and assessed by comparison with the standard spectrophotometric assay.

Human placental diamine oxidase. Improved purification and characterization of a copper- and manganese-containing amine oxidase with novel substrate specificity.

Project description:1. Isoelectric focusing studies of human placental diamine oxidase showed the pI value of the active enzyme to be 6.5. This information was used in modifying the enzyme purification by incorporating column chromatography on DEAE-Sephadex with ionic strength and pH gradient elution and this, together with affinity chromatography on concanavalin A--Sepharose, gave a highly purified preparation, with a specific activity of 7.0 units/mg. 2. The enzyme gave the expected stoicheiometry with p-dimethylaminomethylbenzylamine as substrate (Keq. 2700) and also oxidized [8-arginine]vasopressin, [8-lysine]vasopressin, collagen and tropocollagen. Polyacrylamide gel slices showed identical migration of diamine-oxidizing and [8-lysine]vasopressin-oxidizing activity. 3. The molecular weight, determined by ultracentrifugation, sodium dodecyl sulphate/polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis, variable polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis and Sephadex G-200 column chromatography, was estimated to be approx. 70000. 4. E.s.r. spectroscopy showed that copper and manganese were present in the purified enzyme. This result was confirmed by atomic absorption spectroscopy, which indicated a stoicheiometry for copper and manganese of approx. 1.0 and 1.2g-atom respectively/70000mol.wt. unit. 5. The e.s.r. spectral intensity did not decrease nor did the spectral line shape change when excess of p-dimethylaminomethylbenzylamine was added to the enzyme. 6. Addition of K13CN to the enzyme eliminated the copper e.s.r. signal without affecting the manganese signal. 7. The placental enzyme therefore appears to differ from other amine oxidases in terms of its metal cofactor requirement, molecular weight and substrate specificity, and possible roles in vivo for this enzyme are discussed.

The first mammalian aldehyde oxidase crystal structure: insights into substrate specificity.

Project description:BackgroundAldehyde oxidases have pharmacological relevance, and AOX3 is the major drug-metabolizing enzyme in rodents.ResultsThe crystal structure of mouse AOX3 with kinetics and molecular docking studies provides insights into its enzymatic characteristics.ConclusionDifferences in substrate and inhibitor specificities can be rationalized by comparing the AOX3 and xanthine oxidase structures.SignificanceThe first aldehyde oxidase structure represents a major advance for drug design and mechanistic studies. Aldehyde oxidases (AOXs) are homodimeric proteins belonging to the xanthine oxidase family of molybdenum-containing enzymes. Each 150-kDa monomer contains a FAD redox cofactor, two spectroscopically distinct [2Fe-2S] clusters, and a molybdenum cofactor located within the protein active site. AOXs are characterized by broad range substrate specificity, oxidizing different aldehydes and aromatic N-heterocycles. Despite increasing recognition of its role in the metabolism of drugs and xenobiotics, the physiological function of the protein is still largely unknown. We have crystallized and solved the crystal structure of mouse liver aldehyde oxidase 3 to 2.9 Å. This is the first mammalian AOX whose structure has been solved. The structure provides important insights into the protein active center and further evidence on the catalytic differences characterizing AOX and xanthine oxidoreductase. The mouse liver aldehyde oxidase 3 three-dimensional structure combined with kinetic, mutagenesis data, molecular docking, and molecular dynamics studies make a decisive contribution to understand the molecular basis of its rather broad substrate specificity.

Modulating D-amino acid oxidase (DAAO) substrate specificity through facilitated solvent access.

Project description:D-amino acid oxidase (DAAO) degrades D-amino acids to produce ?-ketoacids, hydrogen peroxide and ammonia. DAAO has often been investigated and engineered for industrial and clinical applications. We combined information from literature with a detailed analysis of the structure to engineer mammalian DAAOs. The structural analysis was complemented with molecular dynamics simulations to characterize solvent accessibility and product release mechanisms. We identified non-obvious residues located on the loops on the border between the active site and the secondary binding pocket essential for pig and human DAAO substrate specificity and activity. We engineered DAAOs by mutating such critical residues and characterised the biochemical activity of the resulting variants. The results highlight the importance of the selected residues in modulating substrate specificity, product egress and enzyme activity, suggesting further steps of DAAO re-engineering towards desired clinical and industrial applications.

Expansion of the Substrate Specificity of Porcine Kidney D-Amino Acid Oxidase for <i>S</i>-Stereoselective Oxidation of 4-Cl-Benzhydrylamine.

Project description:Discovery and development of enzymes for the synthesis of chiral amines have been a hot topic for basic and applied aspects of biocatalysts. Based on our X-ray crystallographic analyses of porcine kidney D-amino acid oxidase (pkDAO) and its variants, we rationally designed a new variant that catalyzed the oxidation of (S)-4-Cl-benzhydrylamine (CBHA) from pkDAO and obtained it by functional high-throughput screening with colorimetric assay. The variant I230A/R283G was constructed from the variant R283G which had completely lost the activity for D-amino acids, further gaining new activity toward (S)-chiral amines with the bulky substituents. The variant enzyme (I230A/R283G) was characterized to have a catalytic efficiency of 1.85 s-1 for (S)-CBHA, while that for (R)-1-phenylethylamine was diminished 10-fold as compared with the Y228L/R283G variant. The variant was efficiently used for the synthesis of (R)-CBHA in 96 % ee from racemic CBHA by the deracemization reaction in the presence of reducing agent such as NaBH4 in water. Furthermore, X-ray crystallographic analysis of the new variant complexed with (S)-CBHA, together with modelling study clearly showed the basis of understanding the structure-activity relationship of pkDAO.

Molecular modeling of peroxidase and polyphenol oxidase: substrate specificity and active site comparison.

Project description:Peroxidases (POD) and polyphenol oxidase (PPO) are enzymes that are well known to be involved in the enzymatic browning reaction of fruits and vegetables with different catalytic mechanisms. Both enzymes have some common substrates, but each also has its specific substrates. In our computational study, the amino acid sequence of grape peroxidase (ABX) was used for the construction of models employing homology modeling method based on the X-ray structure of cytosolic ascorbate peroxidase from pea (PDB ID:1APX), whereas the model of grape polyphenol oxidase was obtained directly from the available X-ray structure (PDB ID:2P3X). Molecular docking of common substrates of these two enzymes was subsequently studied. It was found that epicatechin and catechin exhibited high affinity with both enzymes, even though POD and PPO have different binding pockets regarding the size and the key amino acids involved in binding. Predicted binding modes of substrates with both enzymes were also compared. The calculated docking interaction energy of trihydroxybenzoic acid related compounds shows high affinity, suggesting specificity and potential use as common inhibitor to grape ascorbate peroxidase and polyphenol oxidase.
