Stabilization of C4a-Hydroperoxyflavin in a Two-component Flavin-dependent Monooxygenase Is Achieved through Interactions at Flavin N5 and C4a Atoms
Journal of Biological Chemistry(2011)
摘要
p-Hydroxyphenylacetate (HPA) 3-hydroxylase is a two-component flavin-dependent monooxygenase. Based on the crystal structure of the oxygenase component (C(2)), His-396 is 4.5 Å from the flavin C4a locus, whereas Ser-171 is 2.9 Å from the flavin N5 locus. We investigated the roles of these two residues in the stability of the C4a-hydroperoxy-FMN intermediate. The results indicated that the rate constant for C4a-hydroperoxy-FMN formation decreased ~30-fold in H396N, 100-fold in H396A, and 300-fold in the H396V mutant, compared with the wild-type enzyme. Lesser effects of the mutations were found for the subsequent step of H(2)O(2) elimination. Studies on pH dependence showed that the rate constant of H(2)O(2) elimination in H396N and H396V increased when pH increased with pK(a) >9.6 and >9.7, respectively, similar to the wild-type enzyme (pK(a) >9.4). These data indicated that His-396 is important for the formation of the C4a-hydroperoxy-FMN intermediate but is not involved in H(2)O(2) elimination. Transient kinetics of the Ser-171 mutants with oxygen showed that the rate constants for the H(2)O(2) elimination in S171A and S171T were ~1400-fold and 8-fold greater than the wild type, respectively. Studies on the pH dependence of S171A with oxygen showed that the rate constant of H(2)O(2) elimination increased with pH rise and exhibited an approximate pK(a) of 8.0. These results indicated that the interaction of the hydroxyl group side chain of Ser-171 and flavin N5 is required for the stabilization of C4a-hydroperoxy-FMN. The double mutant S171A/H396V reacted with oxygen to directly form the oxidized flavin without stabilizing the C4a-hydroperoxy-FMN intermediate, which confirmed the findings based on the single mutation that His-396 was important for formation and Ser-171 for stabilization of the C4a-hydroperoxy-FMN intermediate in C(2).
