Abstract
RNA modifications found in most RNAs, particularly in tRNAs and rRNAs, reveal an abundance of chemical alterations of nucleotides. Over 150 distinct RNA modifications are known, emphasizing a remarkable diversity of chemical moieties in RNA molecules. These modifications play pivotal roles in RNA maturation, structural integrity, and the fidelity and efficiency of translation processes. The catalysts responsible for these modifications are RNA-modifying enzymes that use a striking array of chemistries to directly influence the chemical landscape of RNA. This diversity is further underscored by instances where the same modification is introduced by distinct enzymes that use unique catalytic mechanisms and cofactors across different domains of life. This phenomenon of convergent evolution highlights the biological importance of RNA modification and the vast potential within the chemical repertoire for nucleotide alteration. While shared RNA modifications can hint at conserved enzymatic pathways, a major bottleneck is to identify alternative routes within species that possess a modified RNA but are devoid of known RNA-modifying enzymes. To address this challenge, a combination of bioinformatic and experimental strategies proves invaluable in pinpointing new genes responsible for RNA modifications. This integrative approach not only unveils new chemical insights but also serves as a wellspring of inspiration for biocatalytic applications and drug design. In this Account, we present how comparative genomics and genome mining, combined with biomimetic synthetic chemistry, biochemistry, and anaerobic crystallography, can be judiciously implemented to address unprecedented and alternative chemical mechanisms in the world of RNA modification. We illustrate these integrative methodologies through the study of tRNA and rRNA modifications, dihydrouridine, 5-methyluridine, queuosine, 8-methyladenosine, 5-carboxymethylamino-methyluridine, or 5-taurinomethyluridine, each dependent on a diverse array of redox chemistries, often involving organic compounds, organometallic complexes, and metal coenzymes. We explore how vast genome and tRNA databases empower comparative genomic analyses and enable the identification of novel genes that govern RNA modification. Subsequently, we describe how the isolation of a stable reaction intermediate can guide the synthesis of a biomimetic to unveil new enzymatic pathways. We then discuss the usefulness of a biochemical "shunt" strategy to study catalytic mechanisms and to directly visualize reactive intermediates bound within active sites. While we primarily focus on various RNA-modifying enzymes studied in our laboratory, with a particular emphasis on the discovery of a SAM-independent methylation mechanism, the strategies and rationale presented herein are broadly applicable for the identification of new enzymes and the elucidation of their intricate chemistries. This Account offers a comprehensive glimpse into the evolving landscape of RNA modification research and highlights the pivotal role of integrated approaches to identify novel enzymatic pathways.

[PMID: 38024761 PMCID: PMC10652838 DOI: 10.1021/acsomega.3c05915] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/11/2023] [Revised: 10/10/2023] [Accepted: 10/13/2023] [Indexed: 12/01/2023]
Abstract
Iron porphyrins play several important roles in present-day living systems and probably already existed in very early life forms. Hemin (= ferric protoporphyrin IX = ferric heme b), for example, is the prosthetic group at the active site of heme peroxidases, catalyzing the oxidation of a number of different types of reducing substrates after hemin is first oxidized by hydrogen peroxide as the oxidizing substrate of the enzyme. The active site of heme peroxidases consists of a hydrophobic pocket in which hemin is embedded noncovalently and kept in place through coordination of the iron atom to a proximal histidine side chain of the protein. It is this partially hydrophobic local environment of the enzyme which determines the efficiency with which the sequential reactions of the oxidizing and reducing substrates proceed at the active site. Free hemin, which has been separated from the protein moiety of heme peroxidases, is known to aggregate in an aqueous solution and exhibits low catalytic activity. Based on previous reports on the use of surfactant micelles to solubilize free hemin in a nonaggregated state, the peroxidase-like activity of hemin in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) at concentrations below and above the critical concentration for SDS micelle formation (critical micellization concentration (cmc)) was systematically investigated. In most experiments, 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) was applied as a reducing substrate at pH = 7.2. The presence of SDS clearly had a positive effect on the reaction in terms of initial reaction rate and reaction yield, even at concentrations below the cmc. The highest activity correlated with the cmc value, as demonstrated for reactions at three different HEPES concentrations. The 4-(2-hydroxyethyl)-1-piperazineethanesulfonate salt (HEPES) served as a pH buffer substance and also had an accelerating effect on the reaction. At the cmc, the addition of l-histidine (l-His) resulted in a further concentration-dependent increase in the peroxidase-like activity of hemin until a maximal effect was reached at an optimal l-His concentration, probably corresponding to an ideal mono-l-His ligation to hemin. Some of the results obtained can be understood on the basis of molecular dynamics simulations, which indicated the existence of intermolecular interactions between hemin and HEPES and between hemin and SDS. Preliminary experiments with SDS/dodecanol vesicles at pH = 7.2 showed that in the presence of the vesicles, hemin exhibited similar peroxidase-like activity as in the case of SDS micelles. This supports the hypothesis that micelle- or vesicle-associated ferric or ferrous iron porphyrins may have played a role as primitive catalysts in membranous prebiotic compartment systems before cellular life emerged.

Abstract
Methanogen is a pivotal player in pollution treatment and energy recovery, and emerging pollutants (EPs) frequently occur in methanogen-applied biotechnology such as anaerobic digestion (AD). However, the direct effect and underlying mechanism of EPs on crucial methanogen involved in its application still remain unclear. The positive effect of chrysene (CH) on semi-continuous AD of sludge and the robust methanogen was dissected in this study. The methane yield in the digester with CH (100 mg/kg dry sludge) was 62.1 mL/g VS substrate, much higher than that in the control (46.1 mL/g VS substrate). Both methane production from acetoclastic methanogenesis (AM) and the AM proportion in the methanogenic pathway were improved in CH-shaped AD. Acetoclastic consortia, especially Methanosarcina and functional profiles of AM were enriched by CH in favor of the corresponding methanogenesis. Further, based on pure cultivation exposed to CH, the methanogenic performance, biomass, survivability and activity of typical Methanosarcina (M. barkeri) were boosted. Notably, iTRAQ proteomics revealed that the manufacturing (transcription and translation), expression and biocatalytic activity of acetoclastic metalloenzymes, particularly tetrahydromethanopterin S-methyltransferase and methyl-coenzyme M reductase with cobalt/nickel-cofactor (F430 and cobalamin), and acetyl-CoA decarbonylase/synthase with cobalt/nickel-active site, of M. barkeri were upregulated significantly with fold changes in the range of 1.21-3.20 due to the CH presence. This study shed light on EPs-affecting industrially crucial methanogen at the molecular biology level during AD and had implications in the technical relevance of methanogens.

Identification of Blood Transport Proteins to Carry Temoporfin: A Domino Approach from Virtual Screening to Synthesis and In Vitro PDT Testing. Pharmaceutics 2023; 15:pharmaceutics15030919.

Abstract
Temoporfin (mTHPC) is one of the most promising photosensitizers used in photodynamic therapy (PDT). Despite its clinical use, the lipophilic character of mTHPC still hampers the full exploitation of its potential. Low solubility in water, high tendency to aggregate, and low biocompatibility are the main limitations because they cause poor stability in physiological environments, dark toxicity, and ultimately reduce the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Applying a reverse docking approach, here, we identified a number of blood transport proteins able to bind and disperse monomolecularly mTHPC, namely apohemoglobin, apomyoglobin, hemopexin, and afamin. We validated the computational results synthesizing the mTHPC-apomyoglobin complex (mTHPC@apoMb) and demonstrated that the protein monodisperses mTHPC in a physiological environment. The mTHPC@apoMb complex preserves the imaging properties of the molecule and improves its ability to produce ROS via both type I and type II mechanisms. The effectiveness of photodynamic treatment using the mTHPC@apoMb complex was then demonstrated in vitro. Blood transport proteins can be used as molecular “Trojan horses” in cancer cells by conferring mTHPC (i) water solubility, (ii) monodispersity, and (iii) biocompatibility, ultimately bypassing the current limitations of mTHPC.

Abstract
Orientated coupling of redox enzymes to electrodes by their reconstitution onto redox cofactors, such as hemin conjugated to self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) formed on the electrodes, poses the requirements for a SAM design enabling reconstitution. We show that the kinetics of electron transfer (ET) in binary SAMs of alkanethiols on gold composed of in situ hemin-conjugated 11-amino-1-undecanethiol (AUT) and diluting OH-terminated alkanethiols with 11, 6, and 2 methylene groups (MC11OH, MC6OH, and MC2OH) depends on both the SAM composition and surface density of hemin, Γheme. In AUT/MC11OH SAMs composed of equal linker/diluent lengths, the heterogeneous ET rate constant ks decreased with the Γheme and varied between 70 and 500 s-1. For shorter diluents, the ks of 245-330 s-1 (C6) and 300-340 s-1 (C2) showed a little (if any) Γheme dependence. In AUT/MC11OH SAMs, the increasing Γheme resulted in the steric crowding of hemin species and their neighboring lateral interactions in the plane of hemin localization, affecting the potential distribution at the SAM/electrode interface and inducing local electrostatic effects interfering with hemin oxidation. In AUT/MC6OH and AUT/MC2OH SAMs, hemin discharged at the plane of the closest approach to the gold surface, equal to the diluent length and permeable to electrolyte ions, which lessened those effects. All studied binary SAMs provided steric hindrance for protein reconstitution on the hemin cofactor conjugated to the extended AUT linker. Further use of SAM-modified electrodes with the covalently attached hemin as interfaces for heme proteins' reconstitution should consider SAMs with loosely dispersed redox centers terminating more rigid molecular wires. Such wires place hemin at fixed distances from the electrode surface and thus ensure the interfacial properties required for the effective on-surface reconstitution of proteins and enzymes.

Abstract
Visible light photocatalysis enables a broad range of organic transformations that proceed via single electron or energy transfer. Metal polypyridyl complexes are among the most commonly employed visible light photocatalysts. The photophysical properties of these complexes have been extensively studied and can be tuned by modifying the substituents on the pyridine ligands. On the other hand, ligand modifications that enable substrate binding to control reaction selectivity remain rare. Given the exquisite control that enzymes exert over electron and energy transfer processes in nature, we envisioned that artificial metalloenzymes (ArMs) created by incorporating Ru(ii) polypyridyl complexes into a suitable protein scaffold could provide a means to control photocatalyst properties. This study describes approaches to create covalent and non-covalent ArMs from a variety of Ru(ii) polypyridyl cofactors and a prolyl oligopeptidase scaffold. A panel of ArMs with enhanced photophysical properties were engineered, and the nature of the scaffold/cofactor interactions in these systems was investigated. These ArMs provided higher yields and rates than Ru(Bpy)3 2+ for the reductive cyclization of dienones and the [2 + 2] photocycloaddition between C-cinnamoyl imidazole and 4-methoxystyrene, suggesting that protein scaffolds could provide a means to improve the efficiency of visible light photocatalysts.

Abstract
In this work we investigated the effect of a DNA oligonucleotide sequence on the activity of a DNAzyme with covalently attached hemin. For this purpose, we synthesized seven DNA-hemin conjugates. All DNA-hemin conjugates as well as DNA/hemin complexes were characterized using circular dichroism, determination of melting temperatures and pKa of hemin. We observed that hemin conjugation in most cases led to the formation of parallel G-quadruplexes in the presence of potassium and increased thermal stability of all studied systems. Although the activity of DNA-hemin conjugates depended on the sequence used, the highest activity was observed for the DNA-hemin conjugate based on a human telomeric sequence. We used this DNAzyme for development of "sandwich" assay for detection of DNA sequence. For this assay, we used electric chip which could conduct electricity after silver deposition catalyzed by DNAzyme. This method was proved to be selective towards DNA oligonucleotides with mismatches and could be used for the detection of the target. To prove the versatility of our DNAzyme probe we also performed experiments with streptavidin-coated microplates. Our research proved that DNAzyme with covalently attached hemin can be used successfully in the development of heterogeneous assays.

Abstract
Heme-based gas sensors are an emerging class of heme proteins. AfGcHK, a globin-coupled histidine kinase from Anaeromyxobacter sp. Fw109-5, is an oxygen sensor enzyme in which oxygen binding to Fe(II) heme in the globin sensor domain substantially enhances its autophosphorylation activity. Here, we reconstituted AfGcHK with cobalt protoporphyrin IX (Co-AfGcHK) in place of heme (Fe-AfGcHK) and characterized the spectral and catalytic properties of the full-length proteins. Spectroscopic analyses indicated that Co(III) and Co(II)-O2 complexes were in a 6-coordinated low-spin state in Co-AfGcHK, like Fe(III) and Fe(II)-O2 complexes of Fe-AfGcHK. Although both Fe(II) and Co(II) complexes were in a 5-coordinated state, Fe(II) and Co(II) complexes were in high-spin and low-spin states, respectively. The autophosphorylation activity of Co(III) and Co(II)-O2 complexes of Co-AfGcHK was fully active, whereas that of the Co(II) complex was moderately active. This contrasts with Fe-AfGcHK, where Fe(III) and Fe(II)-O2 complexes were fully active and the Fe(II) complex was inactive. Collectively, activity data and coordination structures of Fe-AfGcHK and Co-AfGcHK indicate that all fully active forms were in a 6-coordinated low-spin state, whereas the inactive form was in a 5-coordinated high-spin state. The 5-coordinated low-spin complex was moderately active-a novel finding of this study. These results suggest that the catalytic activity of AfGcHK is regulated by its heme coordination structure, especially the spin state of its heme iron. Our study presents the first successful preparation and characterization of a cobalt-substituted globin-coupled oxygen sensor enzyme and may lead to a better understanding of the molecular mechanisms of catalytic regulation in this family.

Abstract
Using artificial hemes for the reconstruction of natural heme proteins represents a fascinating approach to enhance the bioactivity of the latter. Here, we report the synthesis of various metal 5-oxaporphyrinium cations as cofactors, and a cobalt 5-oxaporphyrinium cation was successfully incorporated into the heme-acquisition protein (HasA) secreted by Pseudomonas aeruginosa. We hypothesize that the oxaporphyrinium cation strongly bound to the HasA-specific outer membrane receptor (HasR) due to its cationic charge, which prevents the subsequent acquisition of heme. In fact, the reconstructed HasA inhibited the growth of Pseudomonas aeruginosa and even of multidrug-resistant P. aeruginosa.

The catalytic oxidation of NADH to NAD cofactor strictly follows the enzymatic kinetics with high catalytic rate and strong affinity. The catalytic mechanism of CuxO NRs was that in the presence of hydrogen peroxide, the catalytic oxidizing NADH to NAD + involving with O2.-.anion production, making it realistic to mutually convert between coenzymes. Considering that the mutual transformation of NADH/NAD cofactors plays an important role in biological function, combination of CuxO NRs with alcohol dehydrogenase, a highly selective method for fluorimetric detection of ethanol was established. The as-proposed sensing platform is capable of dectecting alcohol with the limit of detection of 26.7 μM (S/N = 3) and applied in practical sample with satisfied accuracy and recovery. The as-developed regenerable NADH peroxidase mimics would also cast lights in biocatalysis, synthetic biology and bioenergy.

Abstract
One of the main advantages of a cell-free synthesis system is that the synthetic machinery of cells can be modularized and re-assembled for desired purposes. In this study, we attempted to combine the translational activity of Escherichia coli extract with a heme synthesis pathway for the functional production of horseradish peroxidase (HRP). We first optimized the reaction conditions and the sequence of template DNA to enhance protein expression and folding. The reaction mixture was then supplemented with 5-aminolevulinic acid synthase to facilitate co-synthesis of the heme prosthetic group from glucose. Combining the different synthetic modules required for protein synthesis and cofactor generation led to successful production of functional HRP in a cell-free synthesis system.

Abstract
Hemoproteins are widely researched because they contain redox-active heme prosthetic groups (iron + protoporphyrin IX) that enable them to perform a range of vital functions, acting as enzymes, participants in electron transfer reactions, or gas sensing, carrying, and storage proteins. While the heme prosthetic group is almost always essential for hemoprotein function, it is frequently desirable to remove it from the protein to enable biochemical or protein engineering studies. Obtaining high yields of the apo form of the hemoprotein can be challenging since high heme-protein binding affinities necessitate the use of harsh conditions to remove heme. In this Bio-Protocol, we present three chemical extraction methods that can be used to efficiently remove heme: methyl ethyl ketone extraction, acid-acetone precipitation, and on-column heme extraction. We also present protocols that can be used to quantitate the amount of residual heme bound to the protein after performing the extraction procedures.

Abstract
The detection of glucose is crucial in the management of diabetes and other medical conditions but also crucial in a wide range of industries such as food and beverages. The development of glucose sensors in the past century has allowed diabetic patients to effectively manage their disease and has saved lives. First-generation glucose sensors have considerable limitations in sensitivity and selectivity which has spurred the development of more advanced approaches for both the medical and industrial sectors. The wide range of application areas has resulted in a range of materials and fabrication techniques to produce novel glucose sensors that have higher sensitivity and selectivity, lower cost, and are simpler to use. A major focus has been on the development of enzymatic electrochemical sensors, typically using glucose oxidase. However, non-enzymatic approaches using direct electrochemistry of glucose on noble metals are now a viable approach in glucose biosensor design. This review discusses the mechanisms of electrochemical glucose sensing with a focus on the different generations of enzymatic-based sensors, their recent advances, and provides an overview of the next generation of non-enzymatic sensors. Advancements in manufacturing techniques and materials are key in propelling the field of glucose sensing, however, significant limitations remain which are highlighted in this review and requires addressing to obtain a more stable, sensitive, selective, cost efficient, and real-time glucose sensor.

Abstract
The reconstitution of [Mn]-hydrogenases using a series of MnI complexes is described. These complexes are designed to have an internal base or pro-base that may participate in metal-ligand cooperative catalysis or have no internal base or pro-base. Only MnI complexes with an internal base or pro-base are active for H2 activation; only [Mn]-hydrogenases incorporating such complexes are active for hydrogenase reactions. These results confirm the essential role of metal-ligand cooperation for H2 activation by the MnI complexes alone and by [Mn]-hydrogenases. Owing to the nature and position of the internal base or pro-base, the mode of metal-ligand cooperation in two active [Mn]-hydrogenases is different from that of the native [Fe]-hydrogenase. One [Mn]-hydrogenase has the highest specific activity of semi-synthetic [Mn]- and [Fe]-hydrogenases. This work demonstrates reconstitution of active artificial hydrogenases using synthetic complexes differing greatly from the native active site.

Abstract
Heme proteins take part in a number of fundamental biological processes, including oxygen transport and storage, electron transfer, catalysis and signal transduction. The redox chemistry of the heme iron and the biochemical diversity of heme proteins have led to the development of a plethora of biotechnological applications. This work focuses on biosensing devices based on heme proteins, in which they are electronically coupled to an electrode and their activity is determined through the measurement of catalytic currents in the presence of substrate, i.e., the target analyte of the biosensor. After an overview of the main concepts of amperometric biosensors, we address transduction schemes, protein immobilization strategies, and the performance of devices that explore reactions of heme biocatalysts, including peroxidase, cytochrome P450, catalase, nitrite reductase, cytochrome c oxidase, cytochrome c and derived microperoxidases, hemoglobin, and myoglobin. We further discuss how structural information about immobilized heme proteins can lead to rational design of biosensing devices, ensuring insights into their efficiency and long-term stability.

Abstract
The structural study of small heme-containing proteins, such as myoglobin, in the apo-form lacking heme has been extensively described, but the characterization and stability of the giant Glossoscolex paulistus hemoglobin (HbGp), in the absence of heme groups, has not been studied. Spectroscopic data show efficient extraction of the heme groups from the hemoglobin, with relatively small secondary and tertiary structural changes in apo-HbGp noticed compared to oxy-HbGp. Electrophoresis shows a partial precipitation of the trimer abc (significantly lower intensity of the corresponding band in the gel), due to extraction of heme groups, and the predominance of the intense monomeric d band, as well as of two linker bands. AUC and DLS data agree with SDS-PAGE in showing that the apo-HbGp undergoes dissociation into the d and abc subunits. Subunits d and abc are characterized by sedimentation coefficients and percentage contributions of 2.0 and 3.0 S and 76 and 24%, respectively. DLS data suggest that the apo-HbGp is unstable, and two populations are present in solution: one with a diameter around 6.0 nm, identified with the dissociated species, and a second one with diameter 100-180 nm, due to aggregated protein. Finally, the presence of urea promotes the exposure of the fluorescent probes, extrinsic ANS and intrinsic protein tryptophans to the aqueous solvent due to the unfolding process. An understanding of the effect of heme extraction on the stability of hemoproteins is important for biotechnological approaches such as the introduction of non-native prosthetic groups and development of artificial enzymes with designed properties.

Abstract
Cellular functions rely on a series of organized and regulated multienzyme cascade reactions. The catalytic efficiencies of these cascades depend on the precise spatial organization of the constituent enzymes, which is optimized to facilitate substrate transport and regulate activities. Mimicry of this organization in a non-living, artificial system would be very useful in a broad range of applications—with impacts on both the scientific community and society at large. Self-assembled DNA nanostructures are promising applications to organize biomolecular components into prescribed, multidimensional patterns. In this review, we focus on recent progress in the field of DNA-scaffolded assembly and confinement of multienzyme reactions. DNA self-assembly is exploited to build spatially organized multienzyme cascades with control over their relative distance, substrate diffusion paths, compartmentalization and activity actuation. The combination of addressable DNA assembly and multienzyme cascades can deliver breakthroughs toward the engineering of novel synthetic and biomimetic reactors.

Abstract
The ability to switch on the activity of an enzyme through its spontaneous reconstitution has proven to be a valuable tool in fundamental studies of enzyme structure/reactivity relationships or in the design of artificial signal transduction systems in bioelectronics, synthetic biology, or bioanalytical applications. In particular, those based on the spontaneous reconstitution/activation of the apo-PQQ-dependent soluble glucose dehydrogenase (sGDH) from Acinetobacter calcoaceticus were widely developed. However, the reconstitution mechanism of sGDH with its two cofactors, i.e., pyrroloquinoline quinone (PQQ) and Ca2+, remains unknown. The objective here is to elucidate this mechanism by stopped-flow kinetics under single-turnover conditions. The reconstitution of sGDH exhibited biphasic kinetics, characteristic of a square reaction scheme associated with two activation pathways. From a complete kinetic analysis, we were able to fully predict the reconstitution dynamics and also to demonstrate that when PQQ first binds to apo-sGDH, it strongly impedes the access of Ca2+ to its enclosed position at the bottom of the enzyme binding site, thereby greatly slowing down the reconstitution rate of sGDH. This slow calcium insertion may purposely be accelerated by providing more flexibility to the Ca2+ binding loop through the specific mutation of the calcium-coordinating P248 proline residue, reducing thus the kinetic barrier to calcium ion insertion. The dynamic nature of the reconstitution process is also supported by the observation of a clear loop shift and a reorganization of the hydrogen-bonding network and van der Waals interactions observed in both active sites of the apo and holo forms, a structural change modulation that was revealed from the refined X-ray structure of apo-sGDH (PDB: 5MIN).

Abstract
Flavoproteins often stabilize their flavin coenzyme by stacking interactions involving the isoalloxazine moiety of the flavin and an aromatic residue from the apoprotein. The bacterial FAD and folate-dependent tRNA methyltransferase TrmFO has the unique property of stabilizing its FAD coenzyme by an unusual H-bond-assisted π-π stacking interaction, involving a conserved tyrosine (Y346 in Bacillus subtilis TrmFO, BsTrmFO), the isoalloxazine of FAD and the backbone of a catalytic cysteine (C53). Here, the interaction between FAD and Y346 has been investigated by measuring the photoinduced flavin dynamics of BsTrmFO in the wild-type (WT) protein, C53A and several Y346 mutants by ultrafast transient absorption spectroscopy. In C53A, the excited FAD very rapidly (0.43 ps) abstracts an electron from Y346, yielding the FAD˙-/Y346OH˙+ radical pair, while relaxation of the local environment (1.3 ps) of the excited flavin produces a slight Stokes shift of its stimulated emission band. The radical pair then decays via charge recombination, mostly in 3-4 ps, without any deprotonation of the Y346OH˙+ radical. Presumably, the H-bond between Y346 and the amide group of C53 increases the pKa of Y346OH˙+ and slows down its deprotonation. The dynamics of WT BsTrmFO shows additional slow decay components (43 and 700 ps), absent in the C53A mutant, assigned to excited FADox populations not undergoing fast photoreduction. Their presence is likely due to a more flexible structure of the WT protein, favored by the presence of C53. Interestingly, mutations of Y346 canceling its electron donating character lead to multiple slower quenching channels in the ps-ns regime. These channels are proposed to be due to electron abstraction either (i) from the adenine moiety of FAD, a distribution of the isoalloxazine-adenine distance in the absence of Y346 explaining the multiexponential decay, or (ii) from the W286 residue, possibly accounting for one of the decays. This work supports the idea that H-bond-assisted π-π stacking controls TrmFO's active site dynamics, required for competent orientation of the reactive centers during catalysis.

Abstract
DNA is an attractive molecular building block to construct nanoscale structures for a variety of applications. In addition to their structure and function, modification the DNA nanostructures by other molecules opens almost unlimited possibilities for producing functional DNA-based architectures. Among the molecules to functionalize DNA nanostructures, proteins are one of the most attractive candidates due to their vast functional variations. DNA nanostructures loaded with various types of proteins hold promise for applications in the life and material sciences. When loading proteins of interest on DNA nanostructures, the nanostructures by themselves act as scaffolds to specifically control the location and number of protein molecules. The methods to arrange proteins of interest on DNA scaffolds at high yields while retaining their activity are still the most demanding task in constructing usable protein-modified DNA nanostructures. Here, we provide an overview of the existing methods applied for assembling proteins of interest on DNA scaffolds. The assembling methods were categorized into two main classes, noncovalent and covalent conjugation, with both showing pros and cons. The recent advance of DNA-binding adaptor mediated assembly of proteins on the DNA scaffolds is highlighted and discussed in connection with the future perspectives of protein assembled DNA nanoarchitectures.

Abstract
We developed and tested a confocal scanning optical microscope that fits into a thermally controlled, commercial research cryostat designed for operation from ambient temperature down to below 4 K. The home-built microscope is a fiber-coupled, self-contained instrument based on readily available mechanical and optical components. Its sample module is sealed in a protective stainless steel tube that minimizes vibrations caused by the flow of cryogenic gas. A high numerical aperture microscope objective specifically designed for cryogenic and high-vacuum applications focuses the excitation light onto the sample, while the core of an optical fiber attached to an avalanche photodiode acts as the confocal detection pinhole. The sample is displaced using a piezotube scanner mounted on top of a three-axis, low-temperature nanopositioner assembly for coarse sample positioning. A broadband polarizing cube beam splitter in the emission path allows for polarization-resolved imaging and spectroscopy. Fluorescence excitation scans are acquired with custom-written software that correlates fluorescence photon counts with the output from a high precision wavelength meter, which is part of a narrow-band, tunable dye laser setup. The imaging and spectral data acquisition capabilities of the microscope were confirmed using a variety of samples and excitation wavelengths at temperatures ranging from 5 K to room temperature.

Abstract
DNA nanostructures serve as the ideal scaffolds to assemble materials of interest. Among these, proteins are of particularly interesting class of molecules to assemble because of their huge functional variability. Sequence-specific DNA binding proteins have been applied as adaptors to stably locate the fused proteins at defined positions of DNA scaffold in high loading yields. The strategy allows to control the number of enzyme molecules and to maintain the catalytic activity. By fusing a chemoselective self-ligating protein tag to the DNA binding protein, the modular adaptors formed covalent bonds at respective sequences on DNA scaffold with fast reaction kinetics. Application of a set of orthogonal modular adaptors enables spatial organization of multiple types of enzymes.

Abstract
Enzymes have evolved to catalyze a range of biochemical transformations with high efficiencies and unparalleled selectivities, including stereoselectivities, regioselectivities, chemoselectivities, and substrate selectivities, while typically operating under mild aqueous conditions. These properties have motivated extensive research to identify or create enzymes with reactivity that complements or even surpasses the reactivity of small-molecule catalysts for chemical reactions. One of the limitations preventing the wider use of enzymes in chemical synthesis, however, is the narrow range of bond constructions catalyzed by native enzymes. One strategy to overcome this limitation is to create artificial metalloenzymes (ArMs) that combine the molecular recognition of nature with the reactivity discovered by chemists. This Account describes a new approach for generating ArMs by the formal replacement of the natural iron found in the porphyrin IX (PIX) of hemoproteins with noble metals. Analytical techniques coupled with studies of chemical reactivity have demonstrated that expression of apomyoglobins and apocytochrome P450s (for which "apo-" denotes the cofactor-free protein) followed by reconstitution with metal-PIX cofactors in vitro creates proteins with little perturbation of the native structure, suggesting that the cofactors likely reside within the native active site. By means of this metal substitution strategy, a large number of ArMs have been constructed that contain varying metalloporphyrins and mutations of the protein. The studies discussed in this Account encompass the use of ArMs containing noble metals to catalyze a range of abiological transformations with high chemoselectivity, enantioselectivity, diastereoselectivity, and regioselectivity. These transformations include intramolecular and intermolecular insertion of carbenes into C-H, N-H, and S-H bonds, cyclopropanation of vinylarenes and of internal and nonconjugated alkenes, and intramolecular insertions of nitrenes into C-H bonds. The rates of intramolecular insertions into C-H bonds catalyzed by thermophilic P450 enzymes reconstituted with an Ir(Me)-PIX cofactor are now comparable to the rates of reactions catalyzed by native enzymes and, to date, 1000 times greater than those of any previously reported ArM. This reactivity also encompasses the selective intermolecular insertion of the carbene from ethyl diazoacetate into C-H bonds over dimerization of the carbene to form alkenes, a class of carbene insertion or selectivity not reported to occur with small-molecule catalysts. These combined results highlight the potential of well-designed ArMs to catalyze abiological transformations that have been challenging to achieve with any type of catalyst. The metal substitution strategy described herein should complement the reactivity of native enzymes and expand the scope of enzyme-catalyzed reactions.

Abstract
A synthetic enzymatic activity in nanopores leading to the direct fabrication of modified electrodes applicable as biosensors and/or biofuel cell elements is reported. We demonstrate the heterogeneous enzymatic implanting of platinum nanoclusters, PtNCs, in glucose oxidase, GOx, immobilized on mesoporous carbon nanoparticles, MPCNP-modified surface. As the pores confine the growth of the clusters, the PtNC@GOx/MPCNP assembly becomes electrically wired to the matrix, demonstrating direct electron transfer, DET, bioelectrocatalytic properties that correlate with the applied duration of synthesis and cluster size. This inside-out nanocluster growth from the cofactor to the matrix is investigated and further compared to a reversed outside-in strategy which follows the electrochemical deposition of the Pt clusters inside the pores and their electrically induced expansion towards the FAD center of the enzyme. While the inside-out and outside-in methodologies provide, for the first time, synthetic bidirectional direct wiring routes of an enzyme to a surface, we highlight an asymmetry in the wiring efficiency associated with the different assemblies. The results indicate the existence of a shorter gap between the FAD cofactor and the PtNCs in the enzymatically implanted assembly, resulting in elevated bioelectrocatalytic currents, lower overpotential, and a higher turnover rate, 2580 e- s-1. The implanted assembly is then coupled to a bilirubin oxidase-adsorbed MPCNP cathode to yield an all-DET biofuel cell. Due to the superior electrical contact of the inside-out-synthesized anode, this cell demonstrates enhanced discharge potential and power outputs as compared to similar systems employing electrochemically synthesized outside-in-grown PtNC-GOx/MPCNPs or even GOx-modified MPCNPs diffusionally mediated by ferrocenemethanol.

Abstract
Worldwide legislation is driving the development of novel and highly efficient analytical tools for assessing the composition of every material that interacts with Consumers or Nature. The biosensor technology is one of the most active R&D domains of Analytical Sciences focused on the challenge of taking analytical chemistry to the field. Electrochemical biosensors based on redox enzymes, in particular, are highly appealing due to their usual quick response, high selectivity and sensitivity, low cost and portable dimensions. This review paper aims to provide an overview of the most important advances made in the field since the proposal of the first biosensor, the well-known hand-held glucose meter. The first section addresses the current needs and challenges for novel analytical tools, followed by a brief description of the different components and configurations of biosensing devices, and the fundamentals of enzyme kinetics and amperometry. The following sections emphasize on enzyme-based amperometric biosensors and the different stages of their development.

The molten-globule residual structure is critical for reflavination of glucose oxidase. Biophys Chem 2017; 230:74-83.

Abstract
Glucose oxidase (GOX) is a homodimeric glycoprotein with tightly bound one molecule of FAD cofactor per monomer of the protein. GOX has numerous applications, but the preparation of biotechnologically interesting GOX sensors requires a removal of the native FAD cofactor. This process often leads to unwanted irreversible deflavination and, as a consequence, to the low enzyme recovery. Molecular mechanisms of reversible reflavination are poorly understood; our current knowledge is based only on empiric rules, which is clearly insufficient for further development. To develop conceptual understanding of flavin-binding competent states, we studied the effect of deflavination protocols on conformational properties of GOX. After deflavination, the apoform assembles into soluble oligomers with nearly native-like holoform secondary structure but largely destabilized tertiary structure presumambly due to the packing density defects around the vacant flavin binding site. The reflavination is cooperative but not fully efficient; after the binding the flavin cofactor, the protein directly disassembles into native homodimers while the fraction of oligomers remains irreversibly inactivated. Importantly, the effect of Hofmeister salts on the conformational properties of GOX and reflavination efficiency indicates that the native-like residual tertiary structure in the molten-globule states favorably supports the reflavination and minimizes the inactivated oligomers. We interpret our results by combining the ligand-induced changes in quaternary structure with salt-sensitive, non-equilibrated conformational selection model. In summary, our work provides the very first steps toward molecular understanding the complexity of the GOX reflavination mechanism.

Abstract
To visualize the dynamic domain motion of class-I CDH from Phanerochaete chrysosporium (PcCDH) during catalysis using high-speed atomic force microscopy, the apo-form of PcCDH was anchored to a heme-immobilized flat gold surface that can fix the orientation of the CYT domain.
Cellobiose dehydrogenase (CDH) is a dual domain flavocytochrome, which consists of a dehydrogenase (DH) domain containing a flavin adenine dinucleotide and a cytochrome (CYT) domain containing b-type heme. To directly visualize the dynamic domain motion of class-I CDH from Phanerochaete chrysosporium (PcCDH) during catalysis using high-speed atomic force microscopy, the apo-form of PcCDH was anchored to a heme-immobilized flat gold surface that can specifically fix the orientation of the CYT domain. The two domains of CDH are found to be immobile in the absence of cellobiose, whereas the addition of cellobiose triggers an interdomain flip-flop motion involving domain–domain association and dissociation. Our results indicate that dynamic motion of a dual domain enzyme during catalysis induces efficient electron transfer to an external electron acceptor.

Abstract
Natural and engineered nitroreductases have rarely supported full reduction of nitroaromatics to their amine products, and more typically, transformations are limited to formation of the hydroxylamine intermediates. Efficient use of these enzymes also requires a regenerating system for NAD(P)H to avoid the costs associated with this natural reductant. Iodotyrosine deiodinase is a member of the same structural superfamily as many nitroreductases but does not directly consume reducing equivalents from NAD(P)H, nor demonstrate nitroreductase activity. However, exchange of its flavin cofactor with a 5-deazaflavin analogue dramatically suppresses its native deiodinase activity and leads to significant nitroreductase activity that supports full reduction to an amine product in the presence of the convenient and inexpensive NaBH4 .

Abstract
We introduce a strategy that expands the functionality of hemoproteins through orthogonal enzyme/heme pairs. By exploiting the ability of a natural heme transport protein, ChuA, to promiscuously import heme derivatives, we have evolved a cytochrome P450 (P450BM3) that selectively incorporates a nonproteinogenic cofactor, iron deuteroporphyrin IX (Fe-DPIX), even in the presence of endogenous heme. Crystal structures show that selectivity gains are due to mutations that introduce steric clash with the heme vinyl groups while providing a complementary binding surface for the smaller Fe-DPIX cofactor. Furthermore, the evolved orthogonal enzyme/cofactor pair is active in non-natural carbenoid-mediated olefin cyclopropanation. This methodology for the generation of orthogonal enzyme/cofactor pairs promises to expand cofactor diversity in artificial metalloenzymes.

Abstract
The electrochemical biosensor with enzyme as biorecognition element is traditionally pursued as an attractive research topic owing to their high commercial perspective in healthcare and environmental sectors. The research interest on the subject is sharply increased since the beginning of 21st century primarily, due to the concomitant increase in knowledge in the field of material science. The remarkable effects of many advance materials such as, conductive polymers and nanomaterials, were acknowledged in the developing efficient 3rd generation enzyme bioelectrodes which offer superior selectivity, sensitivity, reagent less detection, and label free fabrication of biosensors. The present review article compiles the major knowledge surfaced on the subject since its inception incorporating the key review and experimental papers published during the last decade which extensively cover the development on the redox enzyme based 3rd generation electrochemical biosensors. The tenet involved in the function of these direct electrochemistry based enzyme electrodes, their characterizations and various strategies reported so far for their development such as, nanofabrication, polymer based and reconstitution approaches are elucidated. In addition, the possible challenges and the future prospects in the development of efficient biosensors following this direct electrochemistry based principle are discussed. A comparative account on the design strategies and critical performance factors involved in the 3rd generation biosensors among some selected prominent works published on the subject during last decade have also been included in a tabular form for ready reference to the readers.

Abstract
A generic approach for flavoenzyme immobilization was developed in which the flavin cofactor is used for anchoring enzymes onto the carrier. It exploits the tight binding of flavin cofactors to their target apo proteins. The method was tested for phenylacetone monooxygenase (PAMO) which is a well-studied and industrially interesting biocatalyst. Also a fusion protein was tested: PAMO fused to phosphite dehydrogenase (PTDH-PAMO). The employed flavin cofactor derivative, N6-(6-carboxyhexyl)-FAD succinimidylester (FAD*), was covalently anchored to agarose beads and served for apo enzyme immobilization by their reconstitution into holo enzymes. The thus immobilized enzymes retained their activity and remained active after several rounds of catalysis. For both tested enzymes, the generated agarose beads contained 3 U per g of dry resin. Notably, FAD-immobilized PAMO was found to be more thermostable (40% activity after 1 h at 60 °C) when compared to PAMO in solution (no activity detected after 1 h at 60 °C). The FAD-decorated agarose material could be easily recycled allowing multiple rounds of immobilization. This method allows an efficient and selective immobilization of flavoproteins via the FAD flavin cofactor onto a recyclable carrier.
