A site-specifically engineered surface cysteine residue, located in a region where the haem moiety is closest to the surface, is used to anchor cytochrome P450cam enzyme molecules covalently to a gold electrode. More reproducibly ordered adsorption, at high coverage, occurs with this K344C mutant than with the wild-type enzyme. The subsequently formed close-packed monolayer arrays have been probed by scanning tunnelling microscopy under ambient conditions and under aqueous (buffered) solution at high resolution. Initial indications suggest that the immobilised enzyme is both electrochemically addressable and catalytically active. 相似文献

The fundamental nature of reactivity in cytochrome P450 enzymes is currently controversial. Modelling of bacterial P450cam has suggested an important role for the haem propionates in the catalysis, though this finding has been questioned. Understanding the mechanisms of this enzyme family is important both in terms of basic biochemistry and potentially in the prediction of drug metabolism. We have modelled the hydroxylation of camphor by P450cam, using combined quantum mechanics/molecular mechanics (QM/MM) methods. A set of reaction pathways in the enzyme was determined. We were able to pinpoint the source of the discrepancies in the previous results. We show that when a correct ionization state is assigned to Asp297, no spin density appears on the haem propionates and the protein structure in this region remains preserved. These results indicate that the haem propionates are not involved in catalysis. 相似文献

The haem monooxygenase cytochrome P450cam has been engineered to oxidise the gaseous alkanes butane and propane to butan-2-ol and propan-2-ol, respectively, by the use of bulky amino acid substitutions to reduce the volume of the substrate pocket and thus improve the enzyme-substrate fit: the F87W/Y96F/T101L/V247L mutant oxidizes butane with a turnover rate of 750 min-1 and 95% yield based on NADH consumed while the wild-type enzyme has an activity of 0.4 min-1 with 4% yield. 相似文献

Oxygenated derivatives of the monoterpene (+)-alpha-pinene are found in plant essential oils and used as fragrances and flavorings. (+)-alpha-Pinene is structurally related to (+)-camphor, the natural substrate of the heme monooxygenase cytochrome P450(cam) from Pseudomonas putida. The aim of the present work was to apply the current understanding of P450 substrate binding and catalysis to engineer P450(cam) for the selective oxidation of (+)-alpha-pinene. Consideration of the structures of (+)-camphor and (+)-alpha-pinene lead to active-site mutants containing combinations of the Y96F, F87A, F87L, F87W, and V247L mutations. All mutants showed greatly enhanced binding and rate of oxidation of (+)-alpha-pinene. Some mutants had tighter (+)-alpha-pinene binding than camphor binding by the wild-type. The most active was the Y96F/V247L mutant, with a (+)-alpha-pinene oxidation rate of 270 nmol (nmol of P450(cam))(-)(1) min(-)(1), which was 70% of the rate of camphor oxidation by wild-type P450(cam). Camphor is oxidized by wild-type P450(cam) exclusively to 5-exo-hydroxycamphor. If the gem dimethyl groups of (+)-alpha-pinene occupied similar positions to those found for camphor in the wild-type structure, (+)-cis-verbenol would be the dominant product. All P450(cam) enzymes studied gave (+)-cis-verbenol as the major product but with much reduced selectivity compared to camphor oxidation by the wild-type. (+)-Verbenone, (+)-myrtenol, and the (+)-alpha-pinene epoxides were among the minor products. The crystal structure of the Y96F/F87W/V247L mutant, the most selective of the P450(cam) mutants initially examined, was determined to provide further insight into P450(cam) substrate binding and catalysis. (+)-alpha-Pinene was bound in two orientations which were related by rotation of the molecule. One orientation was similar to that of camphor in the wild-type enzyme while the other was significantly different. Analysis of the enzyme/substrate contacts suggested rationalizations of the product distribution. In particular competition rather than cooperativity between the F87W and V247L mutations and substrate movement during catalysis were proposed to be major factors. The crystal structure lead to the introduction of the L244A mutation to increase the selectivity of pinene oxidation by further biasing the binding orientation toward that of camphor in the wild-type structure. The F87W/Y96F/L244A mutant gave 86% (+)-cis-verbenol and 5% (+)-verbenone. The Y96F/L244A/V247L mutant gave 55% (+)-cis-verbenol but interestingly also 32% (+)-verbenone, suggesting that it may be possible to engineer a P450(cam) mutant that could oxidize (+)-alpha-pinene directly to (+)-verbenone. Verbenol, verbenone, and myrtenol are naturally occurring plant fragrance and flavorings. The preparation of these compounds by selective enzymatic oxidation of (+)-alpha-pinene, which is readily available in large quantities, could have applications in synthesis. The results also show that the protein engineering of P450(cam) for high selectivity of substrate oxidation is more difficult than achieving high substrate turnover rates because of the subtle and dynamic nature of enzyme-substrate interactions. 相似文献

The sesquiterpenoids are a large class of naturally occurring compounds with biological functions and desirable properties. Oxidation of the sesquiterpene (+)-valencene by wild type and mutants of P450cam from Pseudomonas putida, and of P450BM-3 from Bacillus megaterium, have been investigated as a potential route to (+)-nootkatone, a fine fragrance. Wild type P450cam did not oxidise (+)-valencene but the mutants showed activities up to 9.8 nmol (nmol P450)(-1) min(-1), with (+)-trans-nootkatol and (+)-nootkatone constituting >85% of the products. Wild type P450BM-3 and mutants had higher activities (up to 43 min(-1)) than P450cam but were much less selective. Of the many products, cis- and trans-(+)-nootkatol, (+)-nootkatone, cis-(+)-valencene-1,10-epoxide, trans-(+)-nootkaton-9-ol, and (+)-nootkatone-13S,14-epoxide were isolated from whole-cell reactions and characterised. The selectivity patterns suggest that (+)-valencene has one binding orientation in P450cam but multiple orientations in P450BM-3. 相似文献

Summary We present an analysis of several molecular dynamics trajectories of substrate-bound cytochrome P450cam. Trajectories were calculated for the native substrate, camphor, as well as for the alternative substrates, norcamphor and thiocamphor. The system modeled consisted of the crystallographically resolved amino acids, the heme group with a single oxygen atom as the distal ligand, the bound substrate, and the crystallographic waters. These trajectories of the presumptive ferryl oxygen intermediate were used to predict regiospecificity of hydroxylation and coupling between NADH consumption and product formation. Simple geometric criteria in combination with electronic considerations were used to calculate the probability of hydroxylation at specific sites on the substrate. We found that for all the cases examined, the predicted product ratios were in good agreement with the experimentally observed values. We also determined that these simple geometric criteria can be used to predict the degree of coupling between NADH consumption and product formation for a given substrate, which was in good agreement with the experimental values. 相似文献

Summary Recent studies by Wackett and co-workers have shown that cytochrome P450cam is capable of reductively dehalogenating hexachloroethane at a significant rate, but that no appreciable dehalogenation of 1,1,1-trichloroethane is observed. A growing body of evidence indicates that differences in intrinsic reactivity can not completely explain this observation. We therefore explored the possible role of differences in preferred binding orientation and in active-site mobility. A detailed analysis of molecular dynamics trajectories with each of these substrates bound at the active site of P450cam is presented. While the dynamics and overall time-average structure calculated for the protein are similar in the two trajectories, the two substrates behave quite differently. The smaller substrate, 1,1,1-trichloroethane, is significantly more mobile than hexachloroethane and has a preferred orientation in which the substituted carbon is generally far from the heme iron. In contrast, for hexachloroethane, one of the chlorine atoms is nearly always in van der Waals contact with the heme iron, which should favor the initial electron transfer step. 相似文献

Enzyme-based electron-transfer reactions involved in the cytochrome P450 monooxygenase system were investigated in nanostructural reverse micelles. A bacterial flavoprotein, putidaredoxin reductase (PdR), was activated and shown to be capable of catalyzing the electron transport from NADH to electron-carrier proteins such as cytochrome b5 (tCyt-b5) and putidaredoxin (Pdx) in reverse micelles. Ferric tCyt-b5 in reverse micelles was effectively converted to its ferrous form by the exogenous addition of separately prepared reverse micellar solution harboring PdR and NADH. The fact that direct interactions of macromolecular proteins should be possible in the reverse micellar system encouraged us to functionalize a multicomponent monooxygenase system composed of the bacterial cytochrome P450cam (P450cam), putidaredoxin (Pdx), and PdR in reverse micelles. The successful camphor hydroxylation reaction catalyzed by P450cam was significantly dependent on the coexistence of Pdx, PdR, and NADH but not H2O2, suggesting that the oxygen-transfer reactions proceeded via a "monooxygenation" mechanism. This is the first report of a multicomponent cytochrome P450 system exhibiting enzymatic activity in organic media. 相似文献

We have estimated the activation energy for aromatic oxidation by compound I in cytochrome P450 for a diverse set of 17 substrates using state-of-the-art density functional theory (B3LYP) with large basis sets. The activation energies vary from 60 to 87 kJ/mol. We then test if these results can be reproduced by computationally less demanding methods. The best methods (a B3LYP calculation of the activation energy of a methoxy-radical model or a partial least-squares model of the semiempirical AM1 bond dissociation energies and spin densities of the tetrahedral intermediate for both a hydroxyl-cation and a hydroxyl-radical model) give correlations with r(2) of 0.8 and mean absolute deviations of 3 kJ/mol. Finally, we apply these simpler methods on several sets of reactions for which experimental data are available and show that we can predict the reactive sites by combining calculations of the activation energies with the solvent-accessible surface area of each site. 相似文献

Molecular dynamics simulations are combined with quantum chemistry calculations of instantaneous proton-transfer energy profiles to investigate proton-transfer events in the transient pathway of cytochrome P450eryF (6-deoxyerythronolide B hydroxylase; CYP107A1), from the oxyferrous species to the catalytically active ferryl oxygen species (compound I). This reaction is one of the most fundamental unresolved aspects in the mechanism of oxidation that is common to all cytochrome P450s. We find that this process involves an ultrafast proton transfer from the crystallographic water molecule W519 to the distal oxygen bound to the heme group, and a subsequent proton-transfer event from W564 to W519. Both proton-transfer events are found to be endothermic in the oxyferrous state, suggesting that the oxyferrous reduction is mechanistically linked to the proton-transfer dynamics. These findings indicate that the hydrogen bond network, proximate to the O(2)-binding cleft, plays a crucial functional role in the enzymatic activation of P450s. Our results are consistent with the effect of mutations on the enzymatic efficacy. 相似文献

Structure-based virtual screening techniques require reliable scoring functions to discriminate potential substrates effectively. In this study we compared the performance of GOLD, PMF, DOCK and FlexX scoring functions in FlexX flexible docking to cytochrome P450cam binding site. Crystal structures of protein-substrate complexes were most effectively reproduced by the FlexX/PMF method. On the other hand, the FlexX/GOLD approach provided the best correlation between experimental binding constants and predicted scores. Binding modes selected by the FlexX/PMF approach were rescored by GOLD to obtain a reliable measure of binding energetics. The effectiveness of the FlexX/PMF/GOLD method was demonstrated by the correct classification of 32 out of the 33 experimentally studied compounds and also in a virtual HTS test on a library of 10,000 compounds. Although almost all the available functions were developed to be general, our study on cytochrome P450cam substrates suggests that careful selection or even tailoring the scoring function might increase the prediction power of virtual screens significantly. The FlexX/PMF/GOLD methodology was tested on cytochrome P450 3A4 substrates and inhibitors. This preliminary study revealed that the combined function was able to recognise 334 out of the 345 compounds bound to 3A4. 相似文献

Resonance Raman spectroscopy is applied to the cyanide adducts of cytochrome P450cam and its T252A and D251N site-directed mutants, both in their substrate-free and camphor-bound forms, to probe active-site heme structure and, in particular, interactions of the FeCN fragment with potential active-site H-bond donors. In contrast to the ferrous CO and ferric NO adducts, which form only essentially linear (slightly distorted) FeXY fragments, the spectra of the ferric CN(-) adducts provide clear evidence the for the existence of an additional, rather highly bent, conformer; that is, the cyanide complexes form both linear and bent conformers in both the substrate-free and substrate-bound forms. Formation of this bent conformer is most reasonably attributed to the presence of off-axis H-bond donors, which induce distortion on the FeCN fragment but not the FeCO and FeNO fragments, which are poorer H-bond acceptors. For all three proteins, the substrate-free form exhibits a complex spectral pattern which arises because one of the modes associated with the FeCN fragment is coupled with two heme macrocycle deformation modes. Significantly, no evidence for such coupling is observed in the spectra of the camphor-bound forms. While various unknown factors may possibly give rise to selective activation of such coupling in the substrate-free derivative, given the known facts about the active-site architecture of this enzyme, a plausible explanation is that the bent conformer is oriented toward the water-filled substrate-binding site in the substrate-free form, but oppositely, toward the proposed proton delivery shuttle, in the substrate-bound form. Sensitivity of the FeCN modes to H(2)O/D(2)O exchange in the two camphor-bound mutants, which is apparently absent for the camphor-bound native protein, is most reasonably attributed to the known presence of extra water in the active sites of these mutants. 相似文献

In the catalytic cycle of cytochrome P450cam, after molecular oxygen binds as a ligand to the heme iron atom to yield a ferrous dioxygen complex, there are fast proton transfers that lead to the formation of the active species, Compound I (Cpd I), which are not well understood because they occur so rapidly. In the present work, the conversion of the ferric hydroperoxo complex (Cpd 0) to Cpd I has been investigated by combined quantum-mechanical/molecular-mechanical (QM/MM) calculations. The residues Asp(251) and Glu(366) are considered as proton sources. In mechanism I, a proton is transported to the distal oxygen atom of the hydroperoxo group via a hydrogen bonding network to form protonated Cpd 0 (prot-Cpd0: FeOOH(2)), followed by heterolytic O-O bond cleavage that generates Cpd I and water. Although a local minimum is found for prot-Cpd0 in the Glu(366) channel, it is very high in energy (more than 20 kcal/mol above Cpd 0) and the barriers for its decay are only 3-4 kcal/mol (both toward Cpd 0 and Cpd I). In mechanism II, an initial O-O bond cleavage followed by a concomitant proton and electron transfer yields Cpd I and water. The rate-limiting step in mechanism II is O-O cleavage with a barrier of about 13-14 kcal/mol. According to the QM/MM calculations, the favored low-energy pathway to Cpd I is provided by mechanism II in the Asp(251) channel. Cpd 0 and Cpd I are of similar energies, with a slight preference for Cpd I. 相似文献

We recently used cryoreduction EPR/ENDOR techniques to show that a substrate can modulate the properties of both the monooxygenase active-oxygen intermediates and of the proton-delivery network which encompasses them. In the present report we use Q-band pulsed 19F ENDOR (Mims 3-pulse sequence) to examine the substrate binding geometries of camphor, through use of the 5,5'--difluorocamphor, and 13C ENDOR to examine the binding of 5-methylenyl camphor labeled with 13C at C11. These probes are examined in multiple states of the catalytic cycle of P450cam and its T252A mutant. As part of this investigation we further report a new cryoreduction reaction, the reduction of a ferroheme to the EPR-visible Fe(I) state, and use it to probe the substrate binding to the EPR-silent ferroheme state. Finally we report the solvent kinetic isotope effect on the decay of the camphor complex of the hydroperoxo-ferric intermediate, the first such measurement on an individual step within the P450cam reaction cycle. Following reduction of oxyferrous-P450cam, this step is the rate-limiting step in camphor hydroxylation, and its solv-KIE of 1.8 at 190 K establishes that it involves activation of the hydroperoxo moiety by transfer of the 'second' proton of catalysis. We suggest that the finding that the heme pocket can exist in multiple substates, including multiple substrate binding locations, even in P450cam, along with the established possibility that the hydroperoxo-ferriheme intermediate can react with substrate, may explain the formation of multiple products by P450s. 相似文献

The three-dimensional structure of human cytochrome P450 3A4 was modeled based on crystallographic coordinates of four bacterial P450s: P450 BM-3, P450cam, P450terp, and P450eryF. The P450 3A4 sequence was aligned to those of the known proteins using a structure-based alignment of P450 BM-3, P450cam, P450terp, and P450eryF. The coordinates of the model were then calculated using a consensus strategy, and the final structure was optimized in the presence of water. The P450 3A4 model resembles P450 BM-3 the most, but the B helix is similar to that of P450eryF, which leads to an enlarged active site when compared with P450 BM-3, P450cam, and P450terp. The 3A4 residues equivalent to known substrate contact residues of the bacterial proteins and key residues of rat P450 2B1 are located in the active site or the substrate access channel. Docking of progesterone into the P450 3A4 model demonstrated that the substrate bound in a 6-orientation can interact with a number of active site residues, such as 114, 119, 301, 304, 305, 309, 370, 373, and 479, through hydrophobic interactions. The active site of the enzyme can also accommodate erythromycin, which, in addition to the residues listed for progesterone, also contacts residues 101, 104, 105, 214, 215, 217, 218, 374, and 478. The majority of 3A4 residues which interact with progesterone and/or erythromycin possess their equivalents in key residues of P450 2B enzymes, except for residues 297, 480 and 482, which do not contact either substrate in P450 3A4. The results from docking of progesterone and erythromycin into the enzyme model make it possible to pinpoint residues which may be important for 3A4 function and to target them for site-directed mutagenesis. 相似文献

The orientation of the substrate camphor in the active site of reduced CO-bound cytochrome P450cam (CYP101) as a function of reduced putidaredoxin (Pdxr) addition has been examined by NMR using perdeuterated CYP101 and perdeuterated Pdx as well as isotopically labeled d-camphor. This permits the 1H resonances of CYP101-bound camphor to be observed without interference from the signals of CYP101 or Pdx and confirms assignments of the methyl signals of camphor in the bound form. The Cys4Fe2S2 ferredoxin Pdx is the physiological redox partner and effector of CYP101. The addition of Pdx to the reduced CYP101-camphor-CO complex results in a conformational selection that is slow on the chemical shift time scale with spectral effects observed primarily at the 8-CH3 group of the camphor. The camphor signals are ring current shifted by the heme, and for the 9- and 10-CH3 resonances, these shifts are reasonably well predicted by ring current calculations from the crystal structure of CO-bound CYP101. However, in the absence of Pdx, the 8-CH3 resonance of CYP101-bound camphor is observed at considerably higher field than predicted. Dynamic simulations using ring current shift restraints generated a structure with low chemical shift violations in which the hydrogen bond between the camphor carbonyl oxygen and the OH of Tyr96 is lost, and an expansion of the active site takes place that permits reorientation of the camphor within the active site. 相似文献
