An In Crystallo Reaction with an Engineered Cytochrome P450 Peroxygenase.
Chemistry : a European Journal 2023 November 17
The cytochrome P450 monooxygenases (CYPs) are a class of heme-thiolate enzymes that insert oxygen into unactivated C-H bonds. These enzymes can be converted into peroxygenases via protein engineering which enables their activity to occur using hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) without the requirement for additional nicotinamide co-factors or partner proteins. Here, we demonstrate that soaking crystals of an engineered P450 peroxygenase with H2O2 enables the enzymatic reaction to occur within the crystal. Crystals of the designed P450 peroxygenase, the T252E mutant of CYP199A4, in complex with 4-methoxybenzoic acid were soaked with different concentrations of H2O2 for varying times to initiate the in crystallo O-demethylation reaction. Crystal structures of T252E-CYP199A4 showed a distinct loss of electron density that was consistent with the O-demethylated metabolite, 4-hydroxybenzoic acid. A new X-ray crystal structure of this enzyme with the 4-hydroxybenzoic acid product was obtained to enable comparison alongside the existing substrate-bound structure. The visualisation of enzymatic catalysis in action is challenging in structural biology and the ability to intitiate the reactions of P450 enzymes, in crystallo by simply soaking crystals with H2O2 will enable new structural biology methods and techniques to be applied to study their mechanism of action.
