Molecular characterization of the gene cluster coxMSL encoding the molybdenum-containing carbon monoxide dehydrogenase of Oligotropha carboxidovorans.

ABSTRACT: The CO dehydrogenase structural genes (cox) and orf4 are clustered in the transcriptional order coxM--> coxS--> coxL--> orf4 on the 128-kb megaplasmid pHCG3 of the carboxidotroph Oligotropha carboxidovorans OM5. Sequence analysis suggested association of molybdopterin cytosine dinucleotide and flavin adenine dinucleotide with CoxL and of the [2Fe-2S] clusters with CoxS.

The hydrogenase activity of the molybdenum/copper-containing carbon monoxide dehydrogenase of Oligotropha carboxidovorans.

Project description:The reaction of the air-tolerant CO dehydrogenase from Oligotropha carboxidovorans with H2 has been examined. Like the Ni-Fe CO dehydrogenase, the enzyme can be reduced by H2 with a limiting rate constant of 5.3 s(-1) and a dissociation constant Kd of 525 ?M; both kred and kred/Kd, reflecting the breakdown of the Michaelis complex and the reaction of free enzyme with free substrate in the low [S] regime, respectively, are largely pH-independent. During the reaction with H2, a new EPR signal arising from the Mo/Cu-containing active site of the enzyme is observed which is distinct from the signal seen when the enzyme is reduced by CO, with greater g anisotropy and larger hyperfine coupling to the active site (63,65)Cu. The signal also exhibits hyperfine coupling to at least two solvent-exchangeable protons of bound substrate that are rapidly exchanged with solvent. Proton coupling is also evident in the EPR signal seen with the dithionite-reduced native enzyme, and this coupling is lost in the presence of bicarbonate. We attribute the coupled protons in the dithionite-reduced enzyme to coordinated water at the copper site in the native enzyme and conclude that bicarbonate is able to displace this water from the copper coordination sphere. On the basis of our results, a mechanism for H2 oxidation is proposed which involves initial binding of H2 to the copper of the binuclear center, displacing the bound water, followed by sequential deprotonation through a copper-hydride intermediate to reduce the binuclear center.

Reaction of the molybdenum- and copper-containing carbon monoxide dehydrogenase from Oligotropha carboxydovorans with quinones.

Project description:Carbon monoxide dehydrogenase (CODH) from Oligotropha carboxydovorans catalyzes the oxidation of carbon monoxide to carbon dioxide, providing the organism both a carbon source and energy for growth. In the oxidative half of the catalytic cycle, electrons gained from CO are ultimately passed to the electron transport chain of the Gram-negative organism, but the proximal acceptor of reducing equivalents from the enzyme has not been established. Here we investigate the reaction of the reduced enzyme with various quinones and find them to be catalytically competent. Benzoquinone has a k(ox) of 125.1 s(-1) and a K(d) of 48 μM. Ubiquinone-1 has a k(ox)/K(d) value of 2.88 × 10(5) M(-1) s(-1). 1,4-Naphthoquinone has a k(ox) of 38 s(-1) and a K(d) of 140 μM. 1,2-Naphthoquinone-4-sulfonic acid has a k(ox)/K(d) of 1.31 × 10(5) M(-1) s(-1). An extensive effort to identify a cytochrome that could be reduced by CO/CODH was unsuccessful. Steady-state studies with benzoquinone indicate that the rate-limiting step is in the reductive half of the reaction (that is, the reaction of oxidized enzyme with CO). On the basis of the inhibition of CODH by diphenyliodonium chloride, we conclude that quinone substrates interact with CODH at the enzyme's flavin site. Our results strongly suggest that CODH donates reducing equivalents directly to the quinone pool without using a cytochrome as an intermediary.

Crystallographic Characterization of the Carbonylated A-Cluster in Carbon Monoxide Dehydrogenase/Acetyl-CoA Synthase.

Project description:The Wood-Ljungdahl pathway allows for autotrophic bacterial growth on carbon dioxide, with the last step in acetyl-CoA synthesis catalyzed by the bifunctional enzyme carbon monoxide dehydrogenase/acetyl-CoA synthase (CODH/ACS). ACS uses a complex Ni-Fe-S metallocluster termed the A-cluster to assemble acetyl-CoA from carbon monoxide, a methyl moiety and coenzyme A. Here, we report the crystal structure of CODH/ACS from Moorella thermoacetica with substrate carbon monoxide bound at the A-cluster, a state previously uncharacterized by crystallography. Direct structural characterization of this state highlights the role of second sphere residues and conformational dynamics in acetyl-CoA assembly, the biological equivalent of the Monsanto process.

Redox-dependent rearrangements of the NiFeS cluster of carbon monoxide dehydrogenase.

Project description:The C-cluster of the enzyme carbon monoxide dehydrogenase (CODH) is a structurally distinctive Ni-Fe-S cluster employed to catalyze the reduction of CO2 to CO as part of the Wood-Ljungdahl carbon fixation pathway. Using X-ray crystallography, we have observed unprecedented conformational dynamics in the C-cluster of the CODH from Desulfovibrio vulgaris, providing the first view of an oxidized state of the cluster. Combined with supporting spectroscopic data, our structures reveal that this novel, oxidized cluster arrangement plays a role in avoiding irreversible oxidative degradation at the C-cluster. Furthermore, mutagenesis of a conserved cysteine residue that binds the C-cluster in the oxidized state but not in the reduced state suggests that the oxidized conformation could be important for proper cluster assembly, in particular Ni incorporation. Together, these results lay a foundation for future investigations of C-cluster activation and assembly, and contribute to an emerging paradigm of metallocluster plasticity.

A Morphing [4Fe-3S-nO]-Cluster within a Carbon Monoxide Dehydrogenase Scaffold.

Project description:Ni,Fe-containing carbon monoxide dehydrogenases (CODHs) catalyze the reversible reduction of CO2 to CO. Several anaerobic microorganisms encode multiple CODHs in their genome, of which some, despite being annotated as CODHs, lack a cysteine of the canonical binding motif for the active site Ni,Fe-cluster. Here, we report on the structure and reactivity of such a deviant enzyme, termed CooS-VCh . Its structure reveals the typical CODH scaffold, but contains an iron-sulfur-oxo hybrid-cluster. Although closely related to true CODHs, CooS-VCh catalyzes neither CO oxidation, nor CO2 reduction. The active site of CooS-VCh undergoes a redox-dependent restructuring between a reduced [4Fe-3S]-cluster and an oxidized [4Fe-2S-S*-2O-2(H2 O)]-cluster. Hydroxylamine, a slow-turnover substrate of CooS-VCh , oxidizes the hybrid-cluster in two structurally distinct steps. Overall, minor changes in CODHs are sufficient to accommodate a Fe/S/O-cluster in place of the Ni,Fe-heterocubane-cluster of CODHs.

The Challenging in silico Description of Carbon Monoxide Oxidation as Catalyzed by Molybdenum-Copper CO Dehydrogenase.

Project description:Carbon monoxide (CO) is a highly toxic gas to many living organisms. However, some microorganisms are able to use this molecule as the sole source of carbon and energy. Soil bacteria such as the aerobic Oligotropha carboxidovorans are responsible for the annual removal of about 2x108 tons of CO from the atmosphere. Detoxification through oxidation of CO to CO2 is enabled by the MoCu-dependent CO-dehydrogenase enzyme (MoCu-CODH) which-differently from other enzyme classes with similar function-retains its catalytic activity in the presence of atmospheric O2. In the last few years, targeted advancements have been described in the field of bioengineering and biomimetics, which is functional for future technological exploitation of the catalytic properties of MoCu-CODH and for the reproduction of its reactivity in synthetic complexes. Notably, a growing interest for the quantum chemical investigation of this enzyme has recently also emerged. This mini-review compiles the current knowledge of the MoCu-CODH catalytic cycle, with a specific focus on the outcomes of theoretical studies on this enzyme class. Rather controversial aspects from different theoretical studies will be highlighted, thus illustrating the challenges posed by this system as far as the application of density functional theory and hybrid quantum-classical methods are concerned.

Investigations by Protein Film Electrochemistry of Alternative Reactions of Nickel-Containing Carbon Monoxide Dehydrogenase.

Project description:Protein film electrochemistry has been used to investigate reactions of highly active nickel-containing carbon monoxide dehydrogenases (CODHs). When attached to a pyrolytic graphite electrode, these enzymes behave as reversible electrocatalysts, displaying CO2 reduction or CO oxidation at minimal overpotential. The O2 sensitivity of CODH is suppressed by adding cyanide, a reversible inhibitor of CO oxidation, or by raising the electrode potential. Reduction of N2O, isoelectronic with CO2, is catalyzed by CODH, but the reaction is sluggish, despite a large overpotential, and results in inactivation. Production of H2 and formate under highly reducing conditions is consistent with calculations predicting that a nickel-hydrido species might be formed, but the very low rates suggest that such a species is not on the main catalytic pathway.

Synthesis of MFe3S4 clusters containing a planar M(II) site (M = Ni, Pd, Pt), a structural element in the C-cluster of carbon monoxide dehydrogenase.

Project description:Synthesis of an analogue of the C-cluster of C. hydrogenoformans carbon monoxide dehydrogenase requires formation of a planar Ni(II) site and attachment of an exo iron atom in the core unit NiFe(4)S(5). The first objective has been achieved by two reactions: (i) displacement of Ph(3)P or Bu(t)()NC at tetrahedral Ni(II) sites of cubane-type [NiFe(3)S(4)](+) clusters with chelating diphosphines, and (ii) metal atom incorporation into a cuboidal [Fe(3)S(4)](0) cluster with a M(0) reactant in the presence of bis(1,2-dimethylphosphino)ethane (dmpe). The isolated product clusters [(dmpe)MFe(3)S(4)(LS(3))](2-) (M = Ni(II) (9), Pd(II) (12), Pt(II) (13); LS(3) = 1,3,5-tris((4,6-dimethyl-3-mercaptophenyl)thio)-2,4,6-tris(p-tolylthio)benzene(3-)) contain the cores [MFe(3)(mu(2)-S)(mu(3)-S)(3)](+) having planar M(II)P(2)S(2) sites and variable nonbonding M...S distances of 2.6-3.4 A. Reaction (i) involves a tetrahedral --> planar Ni(II) structural change between isomeric cubane and cubanoid [NiFe(3)S(4)](+) cores. Based on the magnetic properties of 12 and earlier considerations, the S = (5)/(2) ground state of the cubanoid cluster arises from the [Fe(3)S(4)](-) fragment, whereas the S = (3)/(2) ground state of the cubane cluster is a consequence of antiferromagnetic coupling between the spins of Ni(2+) (S = 1) and [Fe(3)S(4)](-). Other substitution reactions of [NiFe(3)S(4)](+) clusters and 1:3 site-differentiated [Fe(4)S(4)](2+) clusters are described, as are the structures of 12, 13, [(Me(3)P)NiFe(3)S(4)(LS(3))](2-), and [Fe(4)S(4)(LS(3))L'](2-) (L' = Me(2)NC(2)H(4)S(-), Ph(2)P(O)C(2)H(4)S(-)). This work significantly expands our initial report of cluster 9 (Panda et al. J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2004, 126, 6448-6459) and further demonstrates that a planar M(II) site can be stabilized within a cubanoid [NiFe(3)S(4)](+) core.

Life on carbon monoxide: X-ray structure of Rhodospirillum rubrum Ni-Fe-S carbon monoxide dehydrogenase.

Project description:A crystal structure of the anaerobic Ni-Fe-S carbon monoxide dehydrogenase (CODH) from Rhodospirillum rubrum has been determined to 2.8-A resolution. The CODH family, for which the R. rubrum enzyme is the prototype, catalyzes the biological oxidation of CO at an unusual Ni-Fe-S cluster called the C-cluster. The Ni-Fe-S C-cluster contains a mononuclear site and a four-metal cubane. Surprisingly, anomalous dispersion data suggest that the mononuclear site contains Fe and not Ni, and the four-metal cubane has the form [NiFe(3)S(4)] and not [Fe(4)S(4)]. The mononuclear site and the four-metal cluster are bridged by means of Cys(531) and one of the sulfides of the cube. CODH is organized as a dimer with a previously unidentified [Fe(4)S(4)] cluster bridging the two subunits. Each monomer is comprised of three domains: a helical domain at the N terminus, an alpha/beta (Rossmann-like) domain in the middle, and an alpha/beta (Rossmann-like) domain at the C terminus. The helical domain contributes ligands to the bridging [Fe(4)S(4)] cluster and another [Fe(4)S(4)] cluster, the B-cluster, which is involved in electron transfer. The two Rossmann domains contribute ligands to the active site C-cluster. This x-ray structure provides insight into the mechanism of biological CO oxidation and has broader significance for the roles of Ni and Fe in biological systems.
