Genetic and other influences on red-cell flavin enzymes, pyridoxine phosphate oxidase and glutathione reductase in families with beta-thalassaemia.

In 18 beta-thalassaemia families from the Ferrara area the incidence of an inherited low flavin mononucleotide (FMN)-dependent pyridoxine phosphate (PNP) oxidase activity, a sensitive indicator of red-cell FMN deficiency, is higher in related members in these families than in the unrelated spouses and controls subjects without family history of thalassaemia. This suggests slower red-cell riboflavin metabolism in thalassaemia families, which may have resulted from selection in combination with thalassaemia by malaria. However, there was a markedly higher incidence of red-cell flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD) deficiency in thalassaemia heterozygotes than in their normal relatives. This was indicated by higher stimulation of FAD-dependent glutathione reductase (GR) activity by FAD and lower GR activity per red cell, and suggests a marked additive effect by thalassaemia on the red cell FAD deficiency that results from the inherited slow riboflavin metabolism. There is evidence that diversion of FAD to other FAD-dependent enzymes might be an important factor.

Detection of the excited singlet state of a deprotonated, reduced flavin.

The excited singlet state of a deprotonated, reduced flavin [1,5-dihydro-N(3)-carboxymethyllumiflavin] in aqueous solution at pH 8 has been detected by laser flash photolysis. The broad absorption band maximized at approximately 490 nm (epsilon = 9.9 x 10(3) M-1 cm-1). The lifetime of the transient was found to be 100 +/- 15 ps. The lifetime was not affected by the presence of pyrimidine dimers, which would be monomerized under these conditions. A longer-lived transient, tentatively identified as the solvated electron, was also detected. The neutral reduced flavin did not give a detectable transient.

Characterization of 4-hydroxyphenylacetate 3-hydroxylase (HpaB) of Escherichia coli as a reduced flavin adenine dinucleotide-utilizing monooxygenase.

4-Hydroxyphenylacetate 3-hydroxylase (HpaB and HpaC) of Escherichia coli W has been reported as a two-component flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD)-dependent monooxygenase that attacks a broad spectrum of phenolic compounds. However, the function of each component in catalysis is unclear. The large component (HpaB) was demonstrated here to be a reduced FAD (FADH(2))-utilizing monooxygenase. When an E. coli flavin reductase (Fre) having no apparent homology with HpaC was used to generate FADH(2) in vitro, HpaB was able to use FADH(2) and O(2) for the oxidation of 4-hydroxyphenylacetate. HpaB also used chemically produced FADH(2) for 4-hydroxyphenylacetate oxidation, further demonstrating that HpaB is an FADH(2)-utilizing monooxygenase. FADH(2) generated by Fre was rapidly oxidized by O(2) to form H(2)O(2) in the absence of HpaB. When HpaB was included in the reaction mixture without 4-hydroxyphenylacetate, HpaB bound FADH(2) and transitorily protected it from rapid autoxidation by O(2). When 4-hydroxyphenylacetate was also present, HpaB effectively competed with O(2) for FADH(2) utilization, leading to 4-hydroxyphenylacetate oxidation. With sufficient amounts of HpaB in the reaction mixture, FADH(2) produced by Fre was mainly used by HpaB for the oxidation of 4-hydroxyphenylacetate. At low HpaB concentrations, most FADH(2) was autoxidized by O(2), causing uncoupling. However, the coupling of the two enzymes' activities was increased by lowering FAD concentrations in the reaction mixture. A database search revealed that HpaB had sequence similarities to several proteins and gene products involved in biosynthesis and biodegradation in both bacteria and archaea. This is the first report of an FADH(2)-utilizing monooxygenase that uses FADH(2) as a substrate rather than as a cofactor.

Purification and properties of 4-hydroxybenzoate 1-hydroxylase (decarboxylating), a novel flavin adenine dinucleotide-dependent monooxygenase from Candida parapsilosis CBS604.

A novel flavoprotein monooxygenase, 4-hydroxybenzoate 1-hydroxylase (decarboxylating), from Candida parapsilosis CBS604 was purified to apparent homogeneity. The enzyme is induced when the yeast is grown on either 4-hydroxybenzoate, 2,4-dihydroxybenzoate, or 3,4-dihydroxybenzoate as the sole carbon source. The purified monooxygenase is a monomer of about 50 kDa containing flavin adenine dinucleotide as weakly bound cofactor. 4-Hydroxybenzoate 1-hydroxylase from C. parapsilosis catalyzes the oxidative decarboxylation of a wide range of 4-hydroxybenzoate derivatives with the stoichiometric consumption of NAD(P)H and oxygen. Optimal catalysis is reached at pH 8, with NADH being the preferred electron donor. By using (18)O2, it was confirmed that the oxygen atom inserted into the product 1,4-dihydroxybenzene is derived from molecular oxygen. 19F nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy revealed that the enzyme catalyzes the conversion of fluorinated 4-hydroxybenzoates to the corresponding hydroquinones. The activity of the enzyme is strongly inhibited by 3,5-dichloro-4-hydroxybenzoate, 4-hydroxy-3,5-dinitrobenzoate, and 4-hydroxyisophthalate, which are competitors with the aromatic substrate. The same type of inhibition is exhibited by chloride ions. Molecular orbital calculations show that upon deprotonation of the 4-hydroxy group, nucleophilic reactivity is located in all substrates at the C-1 position. This, and the fact that the enzyme is highly active with tetrafluoro-4-hydroxybenzoate and 4-hydroxy-3-nitrobenzoate, suggests that the phenolate forms of the substrates play an important role in catalysis. Based on the substrate specificity, a mechanism is proposed for the flavin-mediated oxidative decarboxylation of 4-hydroxybenzoate.

Cloning, sequencing, and analysis of a gene cluster from Chelatobacter heintzii ATCC 29600 encoding nitrilotriacetate monooxygenase and NADH:flavin mononucleotide oxidoreductase.

Nitrilotriacetate (NTA) is an important chelating agent in detergents and has also been used extensively in processing radionuclides. In Chelatobacter heintzii ATCC 29600, biodegradation of NTA is initiated by NTA monooxygenase that oxidizes NTA to iminodiacetate and glyoxylate. The NTA monooxygenase activity requires two component proteins, component A and component B, but the function of each component is unclear. We have cloned and sequenced a gene cluster encoding components A and B (nmoA and nmoB) and two additional open reading frames, nmoR and nmoT, downstream of nmoA. Based on sequence similarities, nmoR and nmoT probably encode a regulatory protein and a transposase, respectively. The NmoA sequence was similar to a monooxygenase that uses reduced flavin mononucleotide (FMNH2) as reductant; NmoB was similar to an NADH:flavin mononucleotide (FMN) oxidoreductase. On the basis of this information, we tested the function of each component. Purified component B was shown to be an NADH:FMN oxidoreductase, and its activity could be separated from that of component A. When the Photobacterium fischeri NADH:FMN oxidoreductase was substituted for component B in the complete reaction, NTA was oxidized, showing that the substrate specificity of the reaction resides in component A. Component A is therefore an NTA monooxygenase that uses FMNH2 and O2 to oxidize NTA, and component B is an NADH:FMN oxidoreductase that provides FMNH2 for NTA oxidation.

A novel reduced flavin mononucleotide-dependent methanesulfonate sulfonatase encoded by the sulfur-regulated msu operon of Pseudomonas aeruginosa.

When Pseudomonas aeruginosa is grown with organosulfur compounds as sulfur sources, it synthesizes a set of proteins whose synthesis is repressed in the presence of sulfate, cysteine, or thiocyanate (so-called sulfate starvation-induced proteins). The gene encoding one of these proteins, PA13, was isolated from a cosmid library of P. aeruginosa PAO1 and sequenced. It encoded a 381-amino-acid protein that was related to several reduced flavin mononucleotide (FMNH2)-dependent monooxygenases, and it was the second in an operon of three genes, which we have named msuEDC. The MsuD protein catalyzed the desulfonation of alkanesulfonates, requiring oxygen and FMNH2 for the reaction, and showed highest activity with methanesulfonate. MsuE was an NADH-dependent flavin mononucleotide (FMN) reductase, which provided reduced FMN for the MsuD enzyme. Expression of the msu operon was analyzed with a transcriptional msuD::xylE fusion and was found to be repressed in the presence of sulfate, sulfite, sulfide, or cysteine and derepressed during growth with methionine or alkanesulfonates. Growth with methanesulfonate required an intact cysB gene, and the msu operon is therefore part of the cys regulon, since sulfite utilization was found to be CysB independent in this species. Measurements of msuD::xylE expression in cysN and cysI genetic backgrounds showed that sulfate, sulfite, and sulfide or cysteine play independent roles in negatively regulating msu expression, and sulfonate utilization therefore appears to be tightly regulated.

The AidB component of the Escherichia coli adaptive response to alkylating agents is a flavin-containing, DNA-binding protein.

Upon exposure to alkylating agents, Escherichia coli increases expression of aidB along with three genes (ada, alkA, and alkB) that encode DNA repair proteins. In order to begin to identify the role of AidB in the cell, the protein was purified to homogeneity, shown to possess stoichiometric amounts of flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD), and confirmed to have low levels of isovaleryl-coenzyme A (CoA) dehydrogenase activity. A homology model of an AidB homodimer was constructed based on the structure of a four-domain acyl-CoA oxidase. The predicted structure revealed a positively charged groove connecting the two active sites and a second canyon of positive charges in the C-terminal domain, both of which could potentially bind DNA. Three approaches were used to confirm that AidB binds to double-stranded DNA. On the basis of its ability to bind DNA and its possession of a redox-active flavin, AidB is predicted to catalyze the direct repair of alkylated DNA.

Interaction of phosphorylase kinase from rabbit skeletal muscle with flavin adenine dinucleotide.

The interaction of flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD) with rabbit skeletal muscle phosphorylase kinase has been studied. Direct evidence of binding of phosphorylase kinase with FAD has been obtained using analytical ultracentrifugation. It has been shown that FAD prevents the formation of the enzyme-glycogen complex, but exerts practically no effect on the phosphorylase kinase activity. The dependence of the relative rate of phosphorylase kinase-glycogen complex formation on the concentration of FAD has cooperative character (the Hill coefficient is 1.3). Under crowding conditions in the presence of 1 M trimethylamine-N-oxide (TMAO), FAD has an inhibitory effect on self-association of phosphorylase kinase. The data suggest that the complex of glycogen metabolism enzymes in protein-glycogen particles may function as a flavin depot in skeletal muscle.

The effect of amphipaths on the flavin-linked aerobic glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase from Escherichia coli.

When assayed by the phenazine methosulphate coupled 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazolyl-2)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) reduction assay, the flavin-linked aerobic glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase from Escherichia coli strain 7 showed a marked loss of activity if depleted of detergent, and this activity could be reconstituted with amphipaths. However, enzyme activity, as measured by the ferricyanide reduction assay, showed no loss of activity upon detergent depletion. Cross-linking studies indicated that amphipath was not inducing any significant quaternary structural change in the enzyme. Flavin fluorescence titration experiments indicated a single type of binding site for glycerol 3-phosphate whose affinity was unaffected by the presence of amphipath; apparent Kd values of 19.5 and 17.1 mM were measured in the presence and absence of amphipath, respectively. The Michaelis-Menten constants for DL-glycerol 3-phosphate, as measured by the phenazine methosulphate coupled MTT and ferricyanide reduction assays in the presence of amphipath, were found to be 1.9 and 10.2 mM, respectively. Cupric ions were found to specifically inhibit the phenazine methosulphate coupled MTT reducing activity while zinc ions inhibited the ferricyanide reducing activity. Circular dichroic studies provided initial evidence for a conformation change in the presence of the nonionic detergent Brij 58 and this was substantiated by quenching of tryptophan fluorescence at concentrations of Brij 58 equivalent to those needed to stimulate activity. We conclude from these studies that amphipaths may specificity induce a phenazine methosulphate binding site thus permitting reduction of this electron acceptor.

Flavin adenine dinucleotide levels in erythrocytes of very low birthweight infants under vitamin supplementation.

Despite the potential dangers of over- and undersupplementation with riboflavin (vitamin B2), little is known about status, requirements and metabolism of this vitamin in very low birthweight (VLBW) infants. As reported here, it is possible to calculate the intraerythrocytic concentration of free flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD), the predominant coenzyme form of riboflavin, on the basis of the erythrocyte glutathione reductase activation coefficient (EGRAC). This parameter was determined in 9 VLBW infants (median of birthweight 634 g, median of gestational age 24 weeks + 3 days) at intervals over a period of 6 weeks. All infants received riboflavin supplementation, either in milk (average intake: 175 micrograms/kg/day) and a multivitamin preparation (200 micrograms/day) or via total parenteral nutrition (TPN; 720 micrograms/kg/day). The average EGRAC was 1.07 (1.00-1.24) during enteral nutrition and 1.05 (1.00-1.18) during TPN. These values correspond to free FAD levels of 757 and 1,060 nM, which is 4 to 5 times higher than in cord blood or in breast-fed infants. EGRAC values between 1.15 and 1.35, representing free intracellular FAD levels of 350-150 nM, should be adequate in VLBW infants in order to minimize the hazards of flavin-induced radical reactions.

The C-terminal flavin domain of gp91phox bound to plasma membranes of granulocyte-like X-CGD PLB-985 cells is sufficient to anchor cytosolic oxidase components and support NADPH oxidase-associated diaphorase activity independent of cytosolic phospholipase A2 regulation.

We have previously established a model of cytosolic phospholipase A(2) (cPLA(2))-deficient PLB-985 cells and demonstrated that cPLA(2)-generated arachidonic acid (AA) is essential for reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH) oxidase activation and NADPH-dependent diaphorase activity. The present study focuses on the C-terminal cytoplasmic domain of gp91(phox) (residues 283-570), which contains the NADPH binding and flavin adenine dinucleotide-reducing center, to determine if this portion is regulated by AA. The gp91(phox) C-terminal reductase domain was expressed in X-CGD PLB-985 cells lacking normal gp91(phox) (X-CGD PLB 91CT cells) and was detected in the plasma membrane. It appears to be bound electrostatically to the plasma membrane, as it is eluted by high salt. Permeabilized, granulocyte-like X-CGD PLB 91CT cells lacking cPLA(2) protein and activity, as well as AA release after stimulation, supported NADPH-dependent diaphorase activity after stimulation, similar to granulocyte-like X-CGD PLB 91CT cells. Normal translocation of p47(phox) and p67(phox) to the membrane fractions of both stimulated cell types indicated that the gp91(phox) C-terminal region is sufficient to anchor the cytosolic oxidase components to the membranes. cPLA(2) translocated to membranes and bound the assembled oxidase in granulocyte-like X-CGD PLB 91CT cells after stimulation. Therefore, the assembled membrane-bound oxidase complex encompassing the flavin domain of gp91(phox) provides a docking site for cPLA(2) but is not the site of AA-based regulation of oxidase activity.

Spectroscopic characterization of flavin mononucleotide bound to the LOV1 domain of Phot1 from Chlamydomonas reinhardtii.

The absorption and emission behavior of flavin mononucleotide (FMN) in the light-, oxygen- and voltage-sensitive (LOV) domain LOV1 of the photoreceptor Phot1 from the green alga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii was studied. The results from the wild-type (LOV1-WT) were compared with those from a mutant in which cysteine 57 was replaced by serine (LOV1-C57S), and with free FMN in aqueous solution. A fluorescence quantum yield of phi(F) = 0.30 and a fluorescence lifetime of tau(F) = 4.6 ns were determined for FMN in the mutant LOV1-C57S, whereas these quantities are reduced to about phi(F) = 0.17 and tau(F) = 2.9 ns for LOV1-WT, indicating an enhanced intersystem crossing in LOV1-WT because of the adjacent sulfur of C57. A single-exponential fluorescence decay was observed in picosecond laser time-resolved fluorescence measurements for both LOV1-WT and LOV1-C57S as expected for excited singlet state relaxation by intersystem crossing and internal conversion. An excitation intensity dependent fluorescence signal saturation was observed in steady-state fluorescence measurements for LOV1-WT, which is thought to be because of the formation of a long-lived intermediate flavin-C(4a)-cysteinyl adduct in the triplet state (few microseconds triplet lifetime, adduct lifetime around 150 s). No photobleaching was observed for LOV1-C57S, because no thiol group is present in the vicinity of FMN for an adduct formation.

Photooxidation of hypotaurine to taurine in the presence of flavins.

Irradiation of organic sulfinates such as hypotaurine and cysteine sulfinic acid in the presence of catalytic amounts of flavins led to the oxidation of its sulfinic groups (-SO2H) to the corresponding sulfonates. The process of hypotaurine oxidation in the presence of riboflavin, followed by absorbance decrease at 220 nm and by ion-exchange chromatography, showed a pseudo-first-order kinetics at pH 6.0. The k value depended linearly on flavin concentrations. The reaction rate was higher at acidic pH. Although the reaction rate was not affected by the addition of superoxide dismutase or catalase, superoxide ions were supposed to be by-products of the reaction. The effectiveness of allyl alcohol as a scavenger pointed to a free-radical mechanism of the reaction. We propose a new reaction mechanism involving sulfinic radicals on this photochemical reaction.

Reaction of organic nitrate esters and S-nitrosothiols with reduced flavins: a possible mechanism of bioactivation.

Organic nitrate esters, such as glyceryl trinitrate and isosorbide dinitrate, are a class of compounds used to treat a variety of vascular ailments. Their effectiveness relies on their ability to be bioactivated to nitric oxide (NO) which, in turn, relaxes vascular smooth muscle. Although there have been many biological studies that indicate that NO can be formed from organic nitrate esters in a biological environment, the chemical mechanism by which this occurs has yet to be established. Previous studies have implicated both flavins and thiols in organic nitrate ester bioactivation. Thus, we examined the chemical interactions of flavins and thiols with organic nitrate esters as a means of determining the role these species may play in NO production. Based on these studies we concluded that a reasonable chemical mechanism for organic nitrate ester bioactivation involves reduction to the organic nitrite ester followed by conversion to a nitrosothiol. The release of NO from nitrosothiols can occur via a variety of processes including reaction with dihydroflavins and NADH.

Purification and properties of a unique flavin-containing chloroperoxidase from the capitellid polychaete Notomastus lobatus.

A unique flavin-containing chloroperoxidase from the marine worm Notomastus lobatus was purified to homogeneity. This enzyme is composed of two dissociable protein moieties, a flavoprotein and a heme protein, in 1:1 molar ratio. The flavoprotein (Mr = 120,000) consists of four identical subunits having Mr of 30,000, and contains FAD. The heme protein (Mr = 54,000) is composed of two copies each of two non-identical subunits (Mr = 15, 500 and 11, 500) and contains ferriheme. The native N. lobatus chloroperoxidase (Mr = 174,000) therefore has a structure of alpha 4 beta 2 gamma 2. Neither the flavoprotein nor the heme protein alone has detectable chloroperoxidase activity but readily associate to form fully active enzyme. This enzyme is capable of oxidizing Cl-, Br-, and I- with optimum pH values of 4.5, 5.0, and 4.5, respectively, at 440 microM H2O2 and has halide-independent catalase activity in the absence of organic substrate. The enzyme can halogenate a wide variety of aromatic compounds, including phenol, from which it produces 4-bromophenol, 2,4-dibromophenol, and 2,4,6-tribromophenol. The same compounds are found in N. lobatus. The N. lobatus chloroperoxidase is the first haloperoxidase to be purified to homogeneity from a marine polychaete, the first reported to contain flavin, and has several unusual physical and catalytic properties. This chloroperoxidase appears to represent a new class of haloperoxidases.

The kinetic behavior of xanthine oxidase containing chemically modified flavins.

The steady-state and rapid kinetic properties of xanthine oxidase containing a series of FAD analogs of varying reduction potential have been investigated. From steady-state analysis, Vmax is found to exhibit a sigmoidal dependence on the flavin midpoint potential in the homologous series. This dependence is accurately described by a model in which the rate of catalysis is attenuated by the amount of partially reduced enzyme generated during turnover possessing an unfavorable distribution of reducing equivalents among the several redox-active centers of the protein. The model assumes that reducing equivalents equilibrate among these centers rapidly compared to the limiting rates for the reductive and oxidative half-reactions. This assumption is borne out by a quantitative analysis of the reductive and oxidative half-reactions of the several enzyme forms investigated in detail. It is demonstrated in these studies that xanthine oxidase containing low potential flavin derivatives such as 1-deaza, 6-hydroxy, or 8-hydroxy FAD exhibits low turnover not because of inherently slow rates of reduction by xanthine or oxidation by molecular oxygen, but because in partially reduced enzyme generated in the course of turnover reducing equivalents are distributed within the enzyme in such a way that the enzyme can participate in neither the reductive nor oxidative half-reactions. These results provide confirmation of the operation of a thermodynamic control mechanism in a simple electron-transferring system.

Studies on the flavin-binding region of old yellow enzyme with an active site probe, 8-fluoro-8-demethyl FMN.

The brewer's yeast old yellow enzyme (OYE) was reconstituted with 8-fluoro-8-demethyl FMN (8F-FMN). The reconstituted enzyme exhibited absorption maxima at 355 and 450 nm in the visible region. This reconstituted enzyme underwent no further spectral changes, showing no evidence of modification in the flavin moiety. However, when the reconstituted enzyme was subjected to specific limited proteolysis with bovine alpha-chymotrypsin, gradual spectral changes were observed with disappearance of the 355- and 450-nm bands accompanied by the appearance of a new band at 496 nm. Identical spectral changes were observed when the proteolytically cleaved OYE (nicked OYE) was reconstituted with 8F-FMN. The process associated with these spectral changes was found to be unimolecular by kinetic analysis. Reverse-phase HPLC analysis revealed that these spectral changes resulted from covalent bond formation between 8F-FMN and the protein moiety after the proteolytic cleavage of the protein into 14K and 34K fragments. The reverse-phase HPLC monitored at 490 nm showed that the chromophore with 496 nm absorption maximum was covalently attached to the 14K fragment. The amino acid sequence analysis of the flavinylated 14K fragment together with that of the 14K fragment of native OYE indicated that the N-terminal leucine of the 14K fragment is the site of flavinylation. These findings imply that the amino group of the N-terminal leucine of the 14K fragment became available as the result of proteolysis and that this amino group nucleophilically attacked the 8-position of 8F-FMN, forming a covalent bond between the flavin moiety and the 14K fragment.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Purification and properties of a NAD(P)H:flavin oxidoreductase from the luminous bacterium, Beneckea harveyi.

A NAD(P)H:flavin oxidoreductase, which produces FMNH2, one of the substrates for the luciferase reaction in bioluminescent bacteria, has been purified with the aid of affinity chromatography on epsilon-aminohexanoyl-FMN-Sepharose. The purified enzyme, isolated from Beneckea harveyi, had a specific activity of 89 mumol of NADH oxidized/min/mg of protein at 23 degrees in the presence of saturating FMN and NADH and appeared homogeneous by several criteria on polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. A molecular weight of 24,000 was estimated both by gel filtration and and sodium dodecyl sulfate gel electrophoresis indicating that the enzyme is composed of a single polypeptide chain. Kinetic studies showed that the higher specificity of the enzyme for NADH than NADPH and for riboflavin and FMN than FAD was primarily due to variations in the Michaelis constants for the different substrates. Initial velocity studies with all pairs of substrates gave intersecting patterns supporting a sequential mechanism for the NAD(P)H:flavin oxidoreductase.
