Cofactor-Free Dioxygenases-Catalyzed Reaction Pathway via Proton-Coupled Electron Transfer.
Journal of Physical Chemistry. B 2022 December 17
Understanding the general mechanism of the metal-free and cofactor-free oxidases and oxygenases catalyzed activation of triplet O2 is one of the most challenging questions in the field of enzymatic catalysis. Herein, we have performed Quantum Mechanics/Molecular Mechanics (QM/MM) multiscale simulations to reveal the detailed mechanism of the HOD catalyzed (i.e., 1- H -3-hydroxy-4-oxoquinaldine 2,4-dioxygenase from Arthrobacter nitroguajacolicus Rü61a ) decomposition of N -heteroaromatic compounds. The complete catalytic mechanism includes four steps: (1) proton transfer from 1- H -3-hydroxy-4-oxoquinaldine (QND) substrate to His251 residue coupled with an electron transfer from QND to triplet O2 (i.e., PCET), (2) formation of C-O bond via an open-shell singlet diradical recombination pathway, (3) ring-closure to form a bicyclic ring, and (4) dissociation of CO. The dissociation of CO is determined as the rate-limiting step, and its calculated energy barrier of 14.9 kcal/mol is consistent with the 15.5 kcal/mol barrier derived from experimental kinetic data. The mechanistic profile is not only valuable for understanding the fundamental pathway of cofactor-free oxidases and oxygenases-catalyzed reactions involving the triplet O2 activation but also discloses a new pathway that undergoes the processes of PCET and open-shell singlet transition state.
