Abstract
Molybdenum (Mo) is present in the active center of eukaryotic enzymes as a tricyclic pyranopterin chelate compound forming the Mo Cofactor (Moco). Four Moco containing enzymes are known in eukaryotes, nitrate reductase (NR), sulfite oxidase (SO), xanthine oxidoreductase (XOR), and aldehyde oxidase (AO). A fifth Moco enzyme has been recently identified. Because of the ability of this enzyme to convert by reduction several amidoximes prodrugs into their active amino forms, it was named mARC (mitochondrial Amidoxime Reducing Component). This enzyme is also able to catalyze the reduction of a broad range of N-hydroxylated compounds (NHC) as the base analogue 6-hydroxylaminopurine (HAP), as well as nitrite to nitric oxide (NO). All the mARC proteins need reducing power that is supplied by other proteins. The human and plants mARC proteins require a Cytochrome b5 (Cytb5) and a Cytochrome b5 reductase (Cytb5-R) to form an electron transfer chain from NADH to the NHC. Recently, plant mARC proteins were shown to be implicated in the reduction of nitrite to NO, and it was proposed that the electrons required for the reaction were supplied by NR instead of Cytochrome b5 components. This newly characterized mARC activity was termed NO Forming Nitrite Reductase (NOFNiR). Moonlighting proteins form a special class of multifunctional enzymes that can perform more than one function; if the extra function is not physiologically relevant, they are called promiscuous enzymes. In this review, we summarize the current knowledge on the mARC protein, and we propose that mARC is a new moonlighting enzyme. © 2017 BioFactors, 43(4):486-494, 2017.

Abstract
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), Lou Gehrig's disease, is a progressive fatal neurodegenerative disease that involves both upper and lower motor neurons. We orally administered 4 xanthine oxidoreductase (XOR) inhibitors to G1H-G93A mice carrying 25 transgene copy numbers of human mutant G93A superoxide dismutase 1, from 80 days of age. Three nonpurine-analogue inhibitors (TEI-6720: Febuxostat, Y-700 and FYX-051), but not allopurinol with a purine analogue ring (pyrazolo pyrimidine ring), significantly delayed disease onset, prolonged survival and the duration of disease stages, improved clinical signs, and alleviated weight loss. Exercise testing (extension reflex, inclined plane, footprint, rotarod, and beam balance tests) showed significantly improved motor function in the G1H-G93A mice treated with these 3 inhibitors. Significant amelioration of disease was seen even when TEI-6720 or Y-700 was administered after the appearance of early signs. Histopathological evaluation in the late stage revealed that G1H-G93A mice treated with TEI-6720 had well-preserved motor neurons and fewer inclusion bodies, compared with mice treated with placebo or with allopurinol. Our results indicate that these 3 nonpurine-analogue XOR inhibitors might increase the supply of high-energy compounds via the purine salvage pathway, thereby protecting motor neurons against death. This strategy may be applicable for oral therapy of ALS patients.

Abstract
The pyranopterin dithiolene (PDT) ligand is an integral component of the molybdenum cofactor (Moco) found in all molybdoenzymes with the sole exception of nitrogenase. However, the roles of the PDT in catalysis are still unknown. The PDT is believed to be bound to the proteins by an extensive hydrogen-bonding network, and it has been suggested that these interactions may function to fine-tune Moco for electron- and atom-transfer reactivity in catalysis. Here, we use resonance Raman (rR) spectroscopy to probe Moco-protein interactions using heavy-atom congeners of lumazine, molecules that bind tightly to both wild-type xanthine dehydrogenase (wt-XDH) and its Q102G and Q197A variants following enzymatic hydroxylation to the corresponding violapterin product molecules. The resulting enzyme-product complexes possess intense near-IR absorption, allowing high-quality rR spectra to be collected on wt-XDH and the Q102G and Q197A variants. Small negative frequency shifts relative to wt-XDH are observed for the low-frequency Moco vibrations. These results are interpreted in the context of weak hydrogen-bonding and/or electrostatic interactions between Q102 and the -NH2 terminus of the PDT, and between Q197 and the terminal oxo of the Mo≡O group. The Q102A, Q102G, Q197A, and Q197E variants do not appreciably affect the kinetic parameters kred and kred/KD, indicating that a primary role for these glutamine residues is to stabilize and coordinate Moco in the active site of XO family enzymes but to not directly affect the catalytic throughput. Raman frequency shifts between wt-XDH and its Q102G variant suggest that the changes in the electron density at the Mo ion that accompany Mo oxidation during electron-transfer regeneration of the catalytically competent active site are manifest in distortions at the distant PDT amino terminus. This implies a primary role for the PDT as a conduit for facilitating enzymatic electron-transfer reactivity in xanthine oxidase family enzymes.

Abstract
For enzyme-catalysed biotransformations, continuous in situ detection methods minimise the need for sample manipulation, ultimately leading to more accurate real-time kinetic determinations of substrate(s) and product(s). We have established for the first time an on-line, real-time quantitative approach to monitor simultaneously multiple biotransformations based on UV resonance Raman (UVRR) spectroscopy. To exemplify the generality and versatility of this approach, multiple substrates and enzyme systems were used involving nitrile hydratase (NHase) and xanthine oxidase (XO), both of which are of industrial and biological significance, and incorporate multistep enzymatic conversions. Multivariate data analysis of the UVRR spectra, involving multivariate curve resolution-alternating least squares (MCR-ALS), was employed to effect absolute quantification of substrate(s) and product(s); repeated benchmarking of UVRR combined with MCR-ALS by HPLC confirmed excellent reproducibility.

Abstract
The molybdenum and tungsten active site model complexes, derived from the protein X-ray crystal structure of the first W-containing nitrate reductase isolated from Pyrobaculum aerophilum, were computed for nitrate reduction at the COSMO-B3LYP/SDDp//B3LYP/Lanl2DZ(p) energy level of density functional theory. The molybdenum containing active site model complex (Mo–Nar) has the largest activation energy (34.4 kcal/mol) for the oxygen atom transfer from the nitrate to the metal center as compared to the tungsten containing active site model complex (W–Nar) (12.0 kcal/mol). Oxidation of the educt complex is close to thermoneutral (−1.9 kcal/mol) for the Mo active site model complex but strongly exothermic (−34.7 kcal/mol) for the W containing active site model complex, however, the MVI to MIV reduction requires equal amount of reductive power for both metal complexes, Mo–Nar or W–Nar.

Abstract
Abstract
Pterins are widely conserved biomolecules that play essential roles in diverse organisms. First described as enzymatic cofactors in eukaryotic systems, bacterial pterins were discovered in cyanobacteria soon after. Several pterin structures unique to bacteria have been described, with conjugation to glycosides and nucleotides commonly observed. Despite this significant structural diversity, relatively few biological functions have been elucidated. Molybdopterin, the best studied bacterial pterin, plays an essential role in the function of the Moco cofactor. Moco is an essential component of molybdoenzymes such as sulfite oxidase, nitrate reductase, and dimethyl sulfoxide reductase, all of which play important roles in bacterial metabolism and global nutrient cycles. Outside of the molybdoenzymes, pterin cofactors play important roles in bacterial cyanide utilization and aromatic amino acid metabolism. Less is known about the roles of pterins in nonenzymatic processes. Cyanobacterial pterins have been implicated in phenotypes related to UV protection and phototaxis. Research describing the pterin-mediated control of cyclic nucleotide metabolism, and their influence on virulence and attachment, points to a possible role for pterins in regulation of bacterial behavior. In this review, we describe the variety of pterin functions in bacteria, compare and contrast structural and mechanistic differences, and illuminate promising avenues of future research.

Abstract
Seven hexacoordinated cis-dioxidomolybdenum(VI) complexes [MoO2L1-7] (1-7) derived from various tetradentate diamino bis(phenolato) "salan" ligands, N,N'-dimethyl-N,N'-bis-(2-hydroxy-3-X-5-Y-6-Z-benzyl)-1,2-diaminoethane {(X=Br, Y=Me, Z=H (H2L1); X=Me, YCl, Z=H (H2L2); X=iPr, Y=Cl, Z=Me (H2L3)} and N,N'-bis-(2-hydroxy-3-X-5-Y-6-Z-benzyl)-1,2-diaminopropane {(X=Y=tBu, Z=H (H2L4); X=Y=Me, Z=H (H2L5); X=iPr, YCl, Z=Me (H2L6); X=Y=Br, Z=H (H2L7)} containing O-N donor atoms, have been isolated and structurally characterized. The formation of cis-dioxidomolybdenum(VI) complexes was confirmed by elemental analysis, IR, UV-vis and NMR spectroscopy, ESI-MS and cyclic voltammetry. X-ray crystallography showed the O2N2 donor set to define an octahedral geometry in each case. The complexes (1-7) were tested for their in vitro antiproliferative activity against HT-29 and HeLa cancer cell line. IC50 values of the complexes in HT-29 follow the order 6<7<<1<2<5<<3<4 while the order was 6<7<5<1<<3<4<2 in HeLa cells. Some of the complexes proved to be as active as the clinical referred drugs, and the greater potency of 6 and 7 (IC50 values of 6 are 2.62 and 10.74μM and that of 7 is 11.79 and 30.48μM in HT-29 and HeLa cells, respectively) may be dependent on the substituents in the salan ligand environment coordinated to the metal.

Abstract
Molybdenum is an essential nutrient for metabolism in plant, bacteria, and animals. Molybdoenzymes are involved in nitrogen assimilation and oxidoreductive detoxification, and bioconversion reactions of environmental, industrial, and pharmaceutical interest. Molybdoenzymes contain a molybdenum cofactor (Moco), which is a pyranopterin heterocyclic compound that binds a molybdenum atom via a dithiolene group. Because Moco is a large and complex compound deeply buried within the protein, molybdoenzymes are accompanied by private chaperone proteins responsible for the cofactor's insertion into the enzyme and the enzyme's maturation. An efficient recombinant expression and purification of both Moco-free and Moco-containing molybdoenzymes and their chaperones is of paramount importance for fundamental and applied research related to molybdoenzymes. In this work, we focused on a D1 protein annotated as a chaperone of steroid C25 dehydrogenase (S25DH) from Sterolibacterium denitrificans Chol-1S. The D1 protein is presumably involved in the maturation of S25DH engaged in oxygen-independent oxidation of sterols. As this chaperone is thought to be a crucial element that ensures the insertion of Moco into the enzyme and consequently, proper folding of S25DH optimization of the chaperon's expression is the first step toward the development of recombinant expression and purification methods for S25DH. We have identified common E. coli strains and conditions for both expression and purification that allow us to selectively produce Moco-containing and Moco-free chaperones. We have also characterized the Moco-containing chaperone by EXAFS and HPLC analysis and identified conditions that stabilize both forms of the protein. The protocols presented here are efficient and result in protein quantities sufficient for biochemical studies.

Abstract
The canonical CysXXXCysXXCys motif is the hallmark of the Radical-SAM superfamily. This motif is responsible for the ligation of a [4Fe-4S] cluster containing a free coordination site available for SAM binding. The five enzymes MoaA, TYW1, MiaB, RimO and LipA contain in addition a second [4Fe-4S] cluster itself bound to three other cysteines and thus also displaying a potentially free coordination site. This review article summarizes recent important achievements obtained on these five enzymes with the main focus to delineate the role of this additional [4Fe-4S] cluster in catalysis.

Abstract
The geochemical behavior of molybdenum (Mo) in the oceans is closely linked to the presence of sulfide species in anoxic environments, where Fe availability may play a key role in the Mo scavenging. Here, we show that Mo(VI) is reduced in the presence of particulate organic matter (represented by sulfate-reducing bacteria). Molybdenum was immobilized at the surface of both living cells and dead/lysed cells, but not in cell-free control experiments. Experiments were carried out at four different Mo concentrations (0.1 to 2 mm) to yield cell-associated Mo precipitates with little or no Fe, consisting of mainly Mo(IV)-sulfide compounds with molecular structures similar to Mo enzymes and to those found in natural euxinic sediments. Therefore, we propose that Mo removal in natural sulfidic waters can proceed via a non-Fe-assisted pathway that requires particulate organic matter (dead or living sulfate-reducing bacteria). This pathway has implications for global marine Mo cycling and the current use of Mo-based proxies for paleo-environmental investigations.

Abstract
Metal ions play significant roles in numerous fields including chemistry, geochemistry, biochemistry, and materials science. With computational tools increasingly becoming important in chemical research, methods have emerged to effectively face the challenge of modeling metal ions in the gas, aqueous, and solid phases. Herein, we review both quantum and classical modeling strategies for metal ion-containing systems that have been developed over the past few decades. This Review focuses on classical metal ion modeling based on unpolarized models (including the nonbonded, bonded, cationic dummy atom, and combined models), polarizable models (e.g., the fluctuating charge, Drude oscillator, and the induced dipole models), the angular overlap model, and valence bond-based models. Quantum mechanical studies of metal ion-containing systems at the semiempirical, ab initio, and density functional levels of theory are reviewed as well with a particular focus on how these methods inform classical modeling efforts. Finally, conclusions and future prospects and directions are offered that will further enhance the classical modeling of metal ion-containing systems.

Abstract
Flavonoids, a group of natural substances with variable phenolic structures, are found in fruits, vegetables, grains, bark, roots, stems, flowers, tea and wine. These natural products are well known for their beneficial effects on health and efforts are being made to isolate the ingredients so called flavonoids. Flavonoids are now considered as an indispensable component in a variety of nutraceutical, pharmaceutical, medicinal and cosmetic applications. This is attributed to their anti-oxidative, anti-inflammatory, anti-mutagenic and anti-carcinogenic properties coupled with their capacity to modulate key cellular enzyme function. Research on flavonoids received an added impulse with the discovery of the low cardiovascular mortality rate and also prevention of CHD. Information on the working mechanisms of flavonoids is still not understood properly. However, it has widely been known for centuries that derivatives of plant origin possess a broad spectrum of biological activity. Current trends of research and development activities on flavonoids relate to isolation, identification, characterisation and functions of flavonoids and finally their applications on health benefits. Molecular docking and knowledge of bioinformatics are also being used to predict potential applications and manufacturing by industry. In the present review, attempts have been made to discuss the current trends of research and development on flavonoids, working mechanisms of flavonoids, flavonoid functions and applications, prediction of flavonoids as potential drugs in preventing chronic diseases and future research directions.

JOURNAL OF ETHNOPHARMACOLOGY 2016; 194:403-411. [PMID: 27717908 DOI: 10.1016/j.jep.2016.10.001] [Citation(s) in RCA: 48] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/29/2016] [Revised: 07/13/2016] [Accepted: 10/03/2016] [Indexed: 06/06/2023]
Abstract
ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE Cordyceps militaris was recorded in the classic traditional Chinese medicine book with the main functions of "protecting liver and enhancing kidney functions", influencing serum uric acid levels. AIM OF STUDY The aim is to investigate the hypouricemic effects and possible mechanism of C. militaris in hyperuricemic mice. MATERIALS AND METHODS A water extract (WECM) was prepared by decocting C. militaris directly at 80 °C in water bath, followed by lyophilization. WECM at 50, 100 and 200mg/kg was orally administered to hyperuricemic mice induced by potassium oxonate and hypoxanthine combinedly and allopurinol (5mg/kg) was served as a positive control. RESULTS WECM exhibited excellent hypouricemic activity, which could decrease the serum uric acid levels of the hyperuricemic mice (306μmol/L) to 189, 184 and 162μmol/L at different doses respectively (P<0.01), approaching the levels of normal mice (184μmol/L). The urate transporter 1 (URAT1) protein levels of kidney at different doses of WECM were 28.15, 17.43, 9.03pg/mL respectively, much lower than that in the hyperuricemia group (93.45pg/mL, P<0.01); and suggested WECM may interact with URAT1. Docking simulations using modeled structure of URAT1 suggested that LYS145, ARG325, ARG477 and ASP168 of URAT1 are key functional residues of URAT1. Four active compounds in C. militaris were identified and their interaction energies with target were estimated between -200 and -400kcal/mol. CONCLUSIONS These findings suggested that C. militaris produced significant hypouricemic actions and the hypouricemic effects of WECM may be attributed to the inhibitive effect of WECM on URAT1 protein levels. The results of blood urine nitrogen and serum creatinine levels and liver, kidney and spleen coefficients showed that WECM have no negative impacts on liver, renal and spleen functions. The screened four active compounds using molecular docking method deserve further investigation in other work.

Abstract
Background Quinoline 2-oxidoreductase (Qor) is a member of molybdenum hydroxylase which catalyzes the oxidation of quinoline (2, 3 benzopyridine) to 1-hydro-2-oxoquinoline. Qor has biological and medicinal significances. Qor is known to metabolize drugs produced from quinoline for the treatment of malaria, arthritis, and lupus for many years. However, the mechanistic action by which Qor oxidizes quinoline has not been investigated either experimentally or theoretically. Purpose of the study The present study was intended to determine the interaction site of quinoline, predict the transition state structure, and probe a plausible mechanistic route for the oxidative hydroxylation of quinoline in the reductive half-reaction active site of Qor. Results Density functional theory calculations have been carried out in order to understand the events taking place during the oxidative hydroxylation of quinoline in the reductive half-reaction active site of Qor. The most electropositivity and the lowest percentage contribution to the HOMO are shown at C2 of quinoline compared to the other carbon atoms. The transition state structure of quinoline bound to the active site has been confirmed by one imaginary negative frequency of −104.500/s and −1.2365899E+06 transition state energies. The Muliken atomic charges, the bond distances, and the bond order profiles were determined to characterize the transition state structure and the reaction mechanism. Conclusion The results have shown that C2 is the preferred locus of interaction of quinoline to interact with the active site of Qor. The transition state structure of quinoline bound to the active site has been confirmed by one imaginary negative frequency. Moreover, the presence of partial negative charges on hydrogen at the transitions state suggested hydride transfer. Similarly, results obtained from total energy, iconicity and molecular orbital analyses supported a concerted reaction mechanism.

Abstract
In the present work, the reactivity of the tris(benzene-1,2-dithiolato)molybdenum complex ([Mo(bdt)3]) toward water is studied by means of the density functional theory (DFT). DFT calculations were performed using the M06, B3P86, and B3PW91 hybrid functionals for comparison purposes. The M06 method was employed to elucidate the reaction pathway, relative stability of the intermediate products, nature of the Mo-S bond cleavage, and electronic structure of the involved molybdenum species. This functional was also used to study the transference of electrons from the molybdenum center toward the ligands. The reaction pathway confirms that [Mo(bdt)3] undergoes hydrolysis, yielding dihydroxo-bis(benzene-1,2-dithiolato)molybdenum complex ([Mo(OH)2(bdt)2]) and benzenedithiol. The reaction takes place through seven transition structures, one of them involving an aquo seven-coordinate molybdenum intermediate stabilized by a lone pair (LP) LPO→LPMo hyperconjugative interaction. This heptacoordinate species allows understanding of the observed oxygen atom exchange between water and tertiary phosphines mediated by these complexes. Calculations also show that [Mo(C2H4S2)3] and [Mo(OH)2(C2H4S2)2] have d2 and d0 electronic configuration, and hence an electron pair must be transferred during the course of the hydrolysis. The frontier molecular orbital (FMO) analysis concludes that the electron pair is transferred in the rupture of the second Mo-S bond, from the occupied donating Mo dx2-y2 orbital to the unoccupied C2H4(SH)2 S-C σ* ligand orbital. This result is supported by the bond dissociation energy calculations, which demonstrate that the neutral dissociation of the second Mo-S bond is energetically the more favorable.

Abstract
Molybdenum is the only 4d metal found in almost all life. One such molybdenum-containing enzyme is sulfite oxidase, which also contains the dithiolene-molybdopterin ligand. Sulfite oxidase is essential in the degradation of sulfur-containing compounds such as cysteine and methionine. Past work has shown parallels in the chemistry of dithiolene–metal and diselenolene–metal complexes. Thus, in this present work, the oxygen atom transfer mechanism for a diselenolene sulfite oxidase biomimetic complex was investigated using computational tools, the results of which were compared to the analogous dithiolene biomimetic complex. From the results obtained, the molybdenum-diselenolene sulfite oxidase biomimetic complex is able to catalyse the oxygen atom transfer and does so with a marginally lower value of ΔrG‡ than that for the analogous dithiolene complex. In particular, it was found that on average, the diselenolene complex had an activation energy 1.2 kJ mol–1 lower in energy than the analogous dithiolene complex. However, the calculated value of ΔrG suggests that the oxidation of sulfite is more favourable for the dithiolene complex where the average difference in reaction aqueous Gibbs reaction energy was –9.4 kJ mol–1 relative to the diselenolene complex. It is noted that with the use of D3 and D3BJ corrections in combination with the B3LYP functional, the barrier for oxygen atom transfer is lowered by more than 30.0 kJ mol–1 for both the diselenolene and dithiolene complexes. Such results suggest that to study such oxo-transfer reactions, the proper treatment of dispersion interaction is necessary.

Abstract
The xanthine oxidase (XO) family comprises molybdenum-dependent enzymes that usually form homodimers (or dimers of heterodimers/trimers) organized in three domains that harbor two [2Fe-2S] clusters, one FAD, and a Mo cofactor. In this work, we crystallized an unusual member of the family, the periplasmic aldehyde oxidoreductase PaoABC from Escherichia coli. This is the first example of an E. coli protein containing a molybdopterin-cytosine-dinucleotide cofactor and is the only heterotrimer of the XO family so far structurally characterized. The crystal structure revealed the presence of an unexpected [4Fe-4S] cluster, anchored to an additional 40 residues subdomain. According to phylogenetic analysis, proteins containing this cluster are widely spread in many bacteria phyla, putatively through repeated gene transfer events. The active site of PaoABC is highly exposed to the surface with no aromatic residues and an arginine (PaoC-R440) making a direct interaction with PaoC-E692, which acts as a base catalyst. In order to understand the importance of R440, kinetic assays were carried out, and the crystal structure of the PaoC-R440H variant was also determined.

Abstract
Nature uses molybdenum-containing enzymes to catalyze oxygen atom transfer (OAT) from water to organic substrates. In these enzymes, the two electrons that are released during the reaction are rapidly removed, one at a time, by spatially separated electron transfer units. Inspired by this design, a Ru(II)-Mo(VI) dyad was synthesized and characterized, with the aim of accelerating the rate-determining step in the cis-dioxo molybdenum-catalyzed OAT cycle, the transfer of an oxo ligand to triphenyl phosphine, via a photo-oxidation process. The dyad consists of a photoactive bis(bipyridyl)-phenanthroline ruthenium moiety that is covalently linked to a bioinspired cis-dioxo molybdenum thiosemicarbazone complex. The quantum yield and luminescence lifetimes of the dyad [Ru(bpy)2(L2)MoO2(solv)]2+ were determined. The major component of the luminescence decay in MeCN solution (τ = 1149 ± 2 ns, 67%) corresponds closely to the lifetime of excited [Ru(bpy)2(phen-NH2)]2+, while the minor component (τ = 320 ± 1 ns, 31%) matches that of [Ru(bpy)2(H2-L2)]2+. In addition, the (spectro)electrochemical properties of the system were investigated. Catalytic tests showed that the dyad-catalyzed OAT from dimethyl sulfoxide to triphenyl phosphine proceeds significantly faster upon irradiation with visible light than in the dark. Methylviologen acts as a mediator in the photoredox cycle, but it is regenerated and hence only required in stoichiometric amounts with respect to the catalyst rather than sacrificial amounts. It is proposed that oxidative quenching of the photoexcited Ru unit, followed by intramolecular electron transfer, leads to the production of a reactive one-electron oxidized catalyst, which is not accessible by electrochemical methods. A significant, but less pronounced, rate enhancement was observed when an analogous bimolecular system was tested, indicating that intramolecular electron transfer between the photosensitizer and the catalytic center is more efficient than intermolecular electron transfer between the separate components.

Abstract
Xanthine dehydrogenase (EC 1.17.1.4, XDH) is a typical and complex molybdenum-containing flavoprotein which has been extensively studied for over 110 years. This enzyme catalyzes the oxidation of purines, pterin and aldehydes with NAD+ or NADP+ as electron acceptor, and sometimes can be transformed to xanthine oxidase (EC 1.17.3.2, XOD) capable of utilizing oxygen as the electron acceptor. XDHs are widely distributed in all eukarya, bacteria and archaea domains, and are proposed to play significant roles in various cellular processes, including purine catabolism and production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and nitric oxide (NO) in both physiological and pathological contexts. The recent applications of XDHs include clinical detections of xanthine and hypoxanthine content in body fluidics, and other diagnostic biomarkers like inorganic phosphorus, 5'-nucleotidase and adenosine deaminase. XDHs can also find applications in environmental degradation of pollutants like aldehydes and industrial application in nucleoside drugs like ribavirin. In this commentary, we would outline the latest knowledge on occurrence, structure, biosynthesis, and recent advances of production and applications of XDH, and highlighted the need to develop XDHs with improved performances by gene prospecting and protein engineering, and protocols for efficient production of active XDHs in response to the increasing demands.

Abstract
Carbon dioxide accumulation is a major concern for the ecosystems, but its abundance and low cost make it an interesting source for the production of chemical feedstocks and fuels. However, the thermodynamic and kinetic stability of the carbon dioxide molecule makes its activation a challenging task. Studying the chemistry used by nature to functionalize carbon dioxide should be helpful for the development of new efficient (bio)catalysts for atmospheric carbon dioxide utilization. In this work, the ability of Desulfovibrio desulfuricans formate dehydrogenase (Dd FDH) to reduce carbon dioxide was kinetically and mechanistically characterized. The Dd FDH is suggested to be purified in an inactive form that has to be activated through a reduction-dependent mechanism. A kinetic model of a hysteretic enzyme is proposed to interpret and predict the progress curves of the Dd FDH-catalyzed reactions (initial lag phase and subsequent faster phase). Once activated, Dd FDH is able to efficiently catalyze, not only the formate oxidation (kcat of 543 s(-1), Km of 57.1 μM), but also the carbon dioxide reduction (kcat of 46.6 s(-1), Km of 15.7 μM), in an overall reaction that is thermodynamically and kinetically reversible. Noteworthy, both Dd FDH-catalyzed formate oxidation and carbon dioxide reduction are completely inactivated by cyanide. Current FDH reaction mechanistic proposals are discussed and a different mechanism is here suggested: formate oxidation and carbon dioxide reduction are proposed to proceed through hydride transfer and the sulfo group of the oxidized and reduced molybdenum center, Mo(6+)═S and Mo(4+)-SH, are suggested to be the direct hydride acceptor and donor, respectively.

Abstract
Analysis of previously reported [((Ph2PPr)PDI)MoI][I] by cyclic voltammetry revealed a reversible wave at -1.20 V vs. Fc(+/0), corresponding to the Mo(ii)/Mo(i) redox couple. Reduction of [((Ph2PPr)PDI)MoI][I] using stoichiometric K/naphthalene resulted in ligand deprotonation rather than reduction to yield a Mo(ii) monoiodide complex featuring a Mo-C bond to the α-position of one imine substituent, (κ(6)-P,N,N,N,C,P-(Ph2PPr)PDI)MoI. Successful isolation of the inner-sphere Mo(i) monoiodide complex, ((Ph2PPr)PDI)MoI, was achieved via reduction of [((Ph2PPr)PDI)MoI][I] with equimolar Na/naphthalene. This complex was found to have a near octahedral coordination geometry by single crystal X-ray diffraction and electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy revealed an unpaired Mo-based electron which is highly delocalized onto the PDI chelate core. Attempts to prepare a Mo(i) monohydride complex upon adding NaEt3BH to ((Ph2PPr)PDI)MoI resulted in disproportionation to yield an equimolar quantity of (κ(6)-P,N,N,N,C,P-(Ph2PPr)PDI)MoH and newly identified ((Ph2PPr)PDI)MoH2. Independent preparation of ((Ph2PPr)PDI)MoH2 was achieved by adding 2 equiv. NaEt3BH to [((Ph2PPr)PDI)MoI][I] and a minimum hydride resonance T1 of 176 ms suggests that the Mo-bound H atoms are best described as classical hydrides. Interestingly, ((Ph2PPr)PDI)MoH2 can be converted to (κ(6)-P,N,N,N,C,P-(Ph2PPr)PDI)MoI upon iodomethane addition, while ((Ph2PPr)PDI)MoH2 is prepared from (κ(6)-P,N,N,N,C,P-(Ph2PPr)PDI)MoI in the presence of excess NaEt3BH. Similarly, (κ(6)-P,N,N,N,C,P-(Ph2PPr)PDI)MoI can be converted to (κ(6)-P,N,N,N,C,P-(Ph2PPr)PDI)MoH with 1 equiv. of NaEt3BH, while the opposite transformation occurs following iodomethane addition to (κ(6)-P,N,N,N,C,P-(Ph2PPr)PDI)MoH. Facile interconversion between [((Ph2PPr)PDI)MoI][I], (κ(6)-P,N,N,N,C,P-(Ph2PPr)PDI)MoI, (κ(6)-P,N,N,N,C,P-(Ph2PPr)PDI)MoH, and ((Ph2PPr)PDI)MoH2 is expected to guide future reactivity studies on this unique set of compounds.

Abstract
During their mechanistic cycles membrane transporters often undergo extensive conformational changes, sampling a range of orientations, in order to complete their function. Such membrane transporters present somewhat of a challenge to conventional structural studies; indeed, crystallization of membrane-associated proteins sometimes require conditions that vary vastly from their native environments. Moreover, this technique currently only allows for visualization of single selected conformations during any one experiment. EPR spectroscopy is a magnetic resonance technique that offers a unique opportunity to study structural, environmental and dynamic properties of such proteins in their native membrane environments, as well as readily sampling their substrate-binding-induced dynamic conformational changes especially through complementary computational analyses. Here we present a review of recent studies that utilize a variety of EPR techniques in order to investigate both the structure and dynamics of a range of membrane transporters and associated proteins, focusing on both primary (ABC-type transporters) and secondary active transporters which were key interest areas of the late Professor Stephen Baldwin to whom this review is dedicated.
