Structural and functional comparison of 2-His-1-carboxylate and 3-His metallocentres in non-haem iron(II)-dependent enzymes.
The canonical structural motif for co-ordination of non-haem ferrous iron in metal-dependent oxygenases is a facial triad of two histidine residues and one aspartate or glutamate residue. This so-called 2-His-1-carboxylate metallocentre is often accommodated in a double-stranded beta-helix fold with the iron-co-ordinating residues located in the rigid core structure of the protein. At the seque...
متن کاملEvidence for Fast Electron Transfer between the High-Spin Haems in Cytochrome bd-I from Escherichia coli
Cytochrome bd-I is one of the three proton motive force-generating quinol oxidases in the O2-dependent respiratory chain of Escherichia coli. It contains one low-spin haem (b558) and the two high-spin haems (b595 and d) as the redox-active cofactors. In order to examine the flash-induced intraprotein reverse electron transfer (the so-called ''electron backflow''), CO was photolyzed from the fer...
متن کاملNon-haem iron-containing oxygenases involved in the microbial biodegradation of aromatic hydrocarbons.
A wide variety of aromatic hydrocarbons can be degraded aerobically by micro-organisms. A large fraction of the metabolic pathways are initiated by oxygenases containing Fe(II) at the active sites, which participates in the oxygenation and activation of the hydrocarbons. Mono-oxygenations and dioxygenations are found in these pathways. Some of these enzymes can catalyse either or both reactions...
متن کاملCrystal structure of rat haem oxygenase-1 in complex with ferrous verdohaem: presence of a hydrogen-bond network on the distal side.
HO (haem oxygenase) catalyses the degradation of haem to biliverdin, CO and ferrous iron via three successive oxygenation reactions, i.e. haem to alpha-hydroxyhaem, alpha-hydroxyhaem to alpha-verdohaem and alpha-verdohaem to ferric biliverdin-iron chelate. In the present study, we determined the crystal structure of ferrous alpha-verdohaem-rat HO-1 complex at 2.2 A (1 A=0.1 nm) resolution. The ...
متن کاملEPR Characterisation of the Ferrous Nitrosyl Complex Formed within the Oxygenase Domain of NO Synthase
Nitric oxide is produced in mammals by a class of enzymes called NO synthases (NOSs). It plays a central role in cellular signalling but also has deleterious effects, as it leads to the production of reactive oxygen and nitrogen species. NO forms a relatively stable adduct with ferrous haem proteins, which, in the case of NOS, is also a key catalytic intermediate. Despite extensive studies on t...
