Abstract
The flavin-dependent enzyme pyranose oxidase catalyses the oxidation of several pyranose sugars at position C-2. In a second reaction step, oxygen is reduced to hydrogen peroxide. POx is of interest for biocatalytic carbohydrate oxidations, yet it was found that the enzyme is rapidly inactivated under turnover conditions. We studied pyranose oxidase from Trametes multicolor (TmPOx) inactivated either during glucose oxidation or by exogenous hydrogen peroxide using mass spectrometry. MALDI-MS experiments of proteolytic fragments of inactivated TmPOx showed several peptides with a mass increase of 16 or 32 Da indicating oxidation of certain amino acids. Most of these fragments contain at least one methionine residue, which most likely is oxidised by hydrogen peroxide. One peptide fragment that did not contain any amino acid residue that is likely to be oxidised by hydrogen peroxide (DAFSYGAVQQSIDSR) was studied in detail by LC-ESI-MS/MS, which showed a +16 Da mass increase for Phe454. We propose that oxidation of Phe454, which is located at the flexible active-site loop of TmPOx, is the first and main step in the inactivation of TmPOx by hydrogen peroxide. Oxidation of methionine residues might then further contribute to the complete inactivation of the enzyme.

Abstract
C4a-hydroperoxyflavin is found commonly in the reactions of flavin-dependent monooxygenases, in which it plays a key role as an intermediate that incorporates an oxygen atom into substrates. Only recently has evidence for its involvement in the reactions of flavoprotein oxidases been reported. Previous studies of pyranose 2-oxidase (P2O), an enzyme catalyzing the oxidation of pyranoses using oxygen as an electron acceptor to generate oxidized sugars and hydrogen peroxide (H(2)O(2)), have shown that C4a-hydroperoxyflavin forms in P2O reactions before it eliminates H(2)O(2) as a product (Sucharitakul, J., Prongjit, M., Haltrich, D., and Chaiyen, P. (2008) Biochemistry 47, 8485-8490). In this report, the solvent kinetic isotope effects (SKIE) on the reaction of reduced P2O with oxygen were investigated using transient kinetics. Our results showed that D(2)O has a negligible effect on the formation of C4a-hydroperoxyflavin. The ensuing step of H(2)O(2) elimination from C4a-hydroperoxyflavin was shown to be modulated by an SKIE of 2.8 ± 0.2, and a proton inventory analysis of this step indicates a linear plot. These data suggest that a single-proton transfer process causes SKIE at the H(2)O(2) elimination step. Double and single mixing stopped-flow experiments performed in H(2)O buffer revealed that reduced flavin specifically labeled with deuterium at the flavin N5 position generated kinetic isotope effects similar to those found with experiments performed with the enzyme pre-equilibrated in D(2)O buffer. This suggests that the proton at the flavin N5 position is responsible for the SKIE and is the proton-in-flight that is transferred during the transition state. The mechanism of H(2)O(2) elimination from C4a-hydroperoxyflavin is consistent with a single proton transfer from the flavin N5 to the peroxide leaving group, possibly via the formation of an intramolecular hydrogen bridge.

Abstract
Flavoenzymes perform a wide range of redox reactions in nature, and a subclass of flavoenzymes carry covalently bound cofactor. The enzyme-flavin bond helps to increase the flavin's redox potential to facilitate substrate oxidation in several oxidases. The formation of the enzyme-flavin covalent bond--the flavinylation reaction--has been studied for the past 40 years. For the most advocated mechanism of autocatalytic flavinylation, the quinone methide mechanism, appropriate stabilization of developing negative charges at the flavin N(1) and N(5) loci is crucial. Whereas the structural basis for stabilization at N(1) is relatively well studied, the structural requisites for charge stabilization at N(5) remain less clear. Here, we show that flavinylation of histidine 167 of pyranose 2-oxidase from Trametes multicolor requires hydrogen bonding at the flavin N(5)/O(4) locus, which is offered by the side chain of Thr169 when the enzyme is in its closed, but not open, state. Moreover, our data show that additional stabilization at N(5) by histidine 548 is required to ensure high occupancy of the histidyl-flavin bond. The combination of structural and spectral data on pyranose 2-oxidase mutants supports the quinone methide mechanism. Our results demonstrate an elaborate structural fine-tuning of the active site to complete its own formation that couples efficient holoenzyme synthesis to conformational substates of the substrate-recognition loop and concerted movements of side chains near the flavinylation ligand.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The flavin-dependent enzyme pyranose 2-oxidase (P2Ox) has gained increased attention during the last years because of a number of attractive applications for this enzyme. P2Ox is a unique biocatalyst with high potential for biotransformations of carbohydrates and in synthetic carbohydrate chemistry. Recently, it was shown that P2Ox is useful as bioelement in biofuel cells, replacing glucose oxidase (GOx), which traditionally is used in these applications. P2Ox offers several advantages over GOx for this application, e.g., its much broader substrate specificity. Because of this renewed interest in P2Ox, knowledge on novel pyranose oxidases isolated from organisms other than white-rot fungi, which represent the traditional source of this enzyme, is of importance, as these novel enzymes might differ in their biochemical and physical properties. RESULTS We isolated and over-expressed the p2ox gene encoding P2Ox from the ectomycorrhizal fungus Lyophyllum shimeji. The p2ox cDNA was inserted into the bacterial expression vector pET21a(+) and successfully expressed in E. coli Rosetta 2. We obtained active, flavinylated recombinant P2Ox in yields of approximately 130 mg per L of medium. The enzyme was purified by a two-step procedure based on anion exchange chromatography and preparative native PAGE, yielding an apparently homogenous enzyme preparation with a specific activity of 1.92 U/mg (using glucose and air oxygen as the substrates). Recombinant P2Ox from L. shimeji was characterized in some detail with respect to its physical and catalytic properties, and compared to the well-characterised enzymes from Phanerochaete chrysosporium and Trametes multicolor. CONCLUSION L. shimeji P2Ox shows properties that are comparable to those of P2Ox from white-rot fungal origin, and is in general characterised by lower K(m) and k(cat) values both for electron donor (sugar) as well as electron acceptor (ferrocenium ion, 1,4-benzoquinone, 2,6-dichloroindophenol). While L. shimeji P2Ox is the least thermostable of these three enzymes (melting temperature T(m) of 54.9 degrees C; half-life time of activity tau1/2 of 0.12 at 50 degrees C and pH 6.5), P. chrysosporium P2Ox showed remarkable thermostability with T(m) of 75.4 degrees C and tau1/2 of 96 h under identical conditions.

Abstract
Pyranose 2-oxidase from Trametes multicolor is a 270 kDa homotetrameric enzyme that participates in lignocellulose degradation by wood-rotting fungi and oxidizes a variety of aldopyranoses present in lignocellulose to 2-ketoaldoses. The active site in pyranose 2-oxidase is gated by a highly conserved, conformationally degenerate loop (residues 450-461), with a conformer ensemble that can accommodate efficient binding of both electron-donor substrate (sugar) and electron-acceptor substrate (oxygen or quinone compounds) relevant to the sequential reductive and oxidative half-reactions, respectively. To investigate the importance of individual residues in this loop, a systematic mutagenesis approach was used, including alanine-scanning, site-saturation and deletion mutagenesis, and selected variants were characterized by biochemical and crystal-structure analyses. We show that the gating segment ((454)FSY(456)) of this loop is particularly important for substrate specificity, discrimination of sugar substrates, turnover half-life and resistance to thermal unfolding, and that three conserved residues (Asp(452), Phe(454) and Tyr(456)) are essentially intolerant to substitution. We furthermore propose that the gating segment is of specific importance for the oxidative half-reaction of pyranose 2-oxidase when oxygen is the electron acceptor. Although the position and orientation of the slow substrate 2-deoxy-2-fluoro-glucose when bound in the active site of pyranose 2-oxidase variants is identical to that observed earlier, the substrate-recognition loop in F454N and Y456W displays a high degree of conformational disorder. The present study also lends support to the hypothesis that 1,4-benzoquinone is a physiologically relevant alternative electron acceptor in the oxidative half-reaction.

Abstract
The homotetrameric flavoprotein pyranose 2-oxidase (P2Ox) has several proposed biotechnological applications, among others as a biocatalyst for carbohydrate transformations toward higher-value products. To improve some of the catalytic properties of P2Ox from Trametes multicolor, we selected a semirational enzyme engineering approach, namely, saturation mutagenesis of the amino acid His450 located at a pivotal point of the active site loop and subsequent screening of the libraries thus obtained for improved activity with the sugar substrate d-galactose. A variant with improved catalytic characteristics identified was H450G, which showed a significant, 3.6-fold decrease in K(M) together with a 1.4-fold increase in k(cat) for its substrate D-galactose and an overall improvement in the catalytic efficiency by a factor of 5. By combining H450G with other amino acid replacements, we obtained the P2Ox variants H450G/V546C and H450G/E542K/V546C, which can be of interest for applications in food industry due to their increased activity with D-galactose, high activity with D-glucose, and considerably increased stability for the latter variant. While the His-tagged recombinant wild-type enzyme strongly prefers D-glucose to D-galactose as its substrate, H450G/E542K/V546C converts both sugars, which are found in lactose hydrolysates, concomitantly, as was shown by laboratory-scale biotransformation experiments. The 2-keto sugars thus obtained can conveniently be reduced to the corresponding ketoses D-fructose and D-tagatose.

Abstract
The heterologous production of the industrially relevant fungal enzyme pyranose 2-oxidase in the prokaryotic host E. coli was investigated using 3 different expression systems, i.e. the well-studied T7 RNA polymerase based pET21d+, the L-arabinose inducible pBAD and the pCOLD system. Preliminary experiments were done in shaking flasks at 25°C and optimized induction conditions to compare the productivity levels of the different expression systems. The pET21d+ and the pCOLD system gave 29 U/L·h and 14 U/L·h of active pyranose 2-oxidase, respectively, whereas the pBAD system only produced 6 U/L·h. Process conditions for batch fermentations were optimized for the pET21d+ and the pCOLD systems in order to reduce the formation of inactive inclusion bodies. The highest productivity rate with the pET21d+ expression system in batch fermentations was determined at 25°C with 32 U/L·h. The pCOLD system showed the highest productivity rate (19 U/L·h) at 25°C and induction from the start of the cultivation. Using the pCOLD system in a fed batch fermentation at 25°C with a specific growth rate of μ = 0.15 h-1resulted in the highest productivity rate of active pyranose oxidase with 206 U/L·h.

Abstract
A pyranose 2-oxidase gene from the brown-rot basidiomycete Gloeophyllum trabeum was isolated using homology-based degenerate PCR. The gene structure was determined and compared to that of several pyranose 2-oxidases cloned from white-rot fungi. The G. trabeum pyranose 2-oxidase gene consists of 16 coding exons with canonical promoter CAAT and TATA elements in the 5'UTR. The corresponding G. trabeum cDNA was cloned and contains an ORF of 1,962 base pairs encoding a 653 amino acid polypeptide with a predicted molecular weight of 72 kDa. A Hisx6 tagged recombinant G. trabeum pyranose 2-oxidase was generated and expressed heterologously in Escherichia coli yielding 15 U enzyme activity per ml of induced culture. Structural alignment and phylogenetic analysis were performed and are discussed.

Abstract
Pyranose 2-oxidase (P2Ox) participates in fungal lignin degradation by producing the H2O2 needed for lignin-degrading peroxidases. The enzyme oxidizes cellulose- and hemicellulose-derived aldopyranoses at C2 preferentially, but also on C3, to the corresponding ketoaldoses. To investigate the structural determinants of catalysis, covalent flavinylation, substrate binding, and regioselectivity, wild-type and mutant P2Ox enzymes were produced and characterized biochemically and structurally. Removal of the histidyl-FAD linkage resulted in a catalytically competent enzyme containing tightly, but noncovalently bound FAD. This mutant (H167A) is characterized by a 5-fold lower kcat, and a 35-mV lower redox potential, although no significant structural changes were seen in its crystal structure. In previous structures of P2Ox, the substrate loop (residues 452-457) covering the active site has been either disordered or in a conformation incompatible with carbohydrate binding. We present here the crystal structure of H167A in complex with a slow substrate, 2-fluoro-2-deoxy-D-glucose. Based on the details of 2-fluoro-2-deoxy-D-glucose binding in position for oxidation at C3, we also outline a probable binding mode for D-glucose positioned for regioselective oxidation at C2. The tentative determinant for discriminating between the two binding modes is the position of the O6 hydroxyl group, which in the C2-oxidation mode can make favorable interactions with Asp452 in the substrate loop and, possibly, a nearby arginine residue (Arg472). We also substantiate our hypothesis with steady-state kinetics data for the alanine replacements of Asp452 and Arg472 as well as the double alanine 452/472 mutant.

Abstract
Pyranose 2-oxidase (P2Ox) is a 270 kDa homotetramer localized preferentially in the hyphal periplasmic space of lignocellulolytic fungi and has a proposed role in lignocellulose degradation to produce the essential co-substrate, hydrogen peroxide, for lignin peroxidases. P2Ox oxidizes D-glucose and other aldopyranoses regioselectively at C2 to the corresponding 2-keto sugars; however, for some substrates, the enzyme also displays specificity for oxidation at C3. The crystal structure of P2Ox from Trametes multicolor has been determined using single anomalous dispersion with mercury as anomalous scatterer. The model was refined at 1.8A resolution to R and Rfree values of 0.134 and 0.171, respectively. The overall fold of the P2Ox subunit resembles that of members of the glucose-methanol-choline family of long-chain oxidoreductases, featuring a flavin-binding Rossmann domain of class alpha/beta and a substrate-binding subdomain with a six-stranded central beta sheet and three alpha helices. The homotetramer buries a large internal cavity of roughly 15,000 A3, from which the four active sites are accessible. Four solvent channels lead from the surface into the cavity through which substrate must enter before accessing the active site. The present structure shows an acetate molecule bound in the active site with the carboxylate group positioned immediately below the flavin N5 atom, and with one carboxylate oxygen atom interacting with the catalytic residues His548 and Asn593. The entrance to the active site is blocked by a loop (residues 452 to 461) with excellent electron density but elevated temperature factors. We predict that this loop is dynamic and opens to allow substrate entry and exit. In silico docking of D-glucose in the P2Ox active site shows that with the active-site loop in the closed conformation, monosaccharides cannot be accommodated; however, after removing the loop from the model, a tentative set of protein-substrate interactions for beta-D-glucose have been outlined.

Abstract
Expression of a recombinant pyranose oxidase (P2O) from the basidiomycete Trametes ochracea has been increased 10-fold in shaking flask cultures of Escherichia coli BL21(DE3) harboring plasmid pSE33 by optimizing the composition of the culture medium using an experimental design approach. Inexpensive lactose was used as a medium component and inducer of expression of the P2O gene, which is under the control of a trc promoter. The expression system was studied in detail in batch and fed-batch cultivations with the aim to improve the expression level of active recombinant protein and to minimize the formation of inclusion bodies. In batch cultivations, the highest specific P2O activity of 0.9 U (mg of soluble protein)(-1) was measured in oxygen-limited cultures grown at 25 degrees C. The highest overall volumetric productivity of 33 mg of active P2O per liter and hour (corresponding to 345U (L h)(-1)) has been determined in a high-density fed-batch process with a feed-forward exponential feeding strategy. During the fed-batch process, lactose was added intermittently to the culture. A final biomass concentration of 33 g L(-1) (based on cell dry weight) was obtained. Compared to shaking flask cultures in not optimized culture media, the overall volumetric P2O productivity has been improved by a factor of 110 using the fed-batch strategy and the optimized culture medium. Recombinant P2O was expressed in the cytoplasm with 9% of the total soluble protein being active P2O. In terms of physical and enzyme kinetic properties, the purified recombinant P2O was found to be similar to the previously published data of P2O isolated from its original host.

Abstract
A cDNA of a structural gene encoding pyranose 2-oxidase (P2O) from Trametes ochracea strain MB49 was cloned into Escherichia coli strain BL21(DE3) on a multicopy plasmid under the control of the trc promoter. Synthesis of P2O was studied in batch cultures in LB or M9-based mineral medium at 28 degrees C. While there was a low specific activity of P2O in LB medium, the enzyme was synthesised constitutively in mineral medium and represented 3% of the cell soluble protein (0.3 U mg(-1)). The effect of isopropyl beta-D-thiogalactoside on the expression of P2O was studied in mineral medium at 25 and 28 degrees C. The synthesis of P2O at 28 degrees C corresponded to 39% of the cell soluble protein but the major portion of P2O (93%) was in the form of non-active inclusion bodies (activity of P2O equalled 0.19 U mg(-1)). At 25 degrees C, the amount of P2O represented 14% of the cell soluble protein and the activity of P2O was 1.1 U mg(-1). The soluble enzyme represented 70% of the total amount of P2O.

Abstract
We present the first report on characterization of the covalent flavinylation site in flavoprotein pyranose 2-oxidase. Pyranose 2-oxidase from the basidiomycete fungus Trametes multicolor, catalyzing C-2/C-3 oxidation of several monosaccharides, shows typical absorption maxima of flavoproteins at 456, 345, and 275 nm. No release of flavin was observed after protein denaturation, indicating covalent attachment of the cofactor. The flavopeptide fragment resulting from tryptic/chymotryptic digestion of the purified enzyme was isolated by anion-exchange and reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography. The flavin type, attachment site, and mode of its linkage were determined by mass spectrometry and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy of the intact flavopeptide, without its prior enzymatic degradation to the central aminoacyl moiety. Mass spectrometry identified the attached flavin as flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD). Post-source decay analysis revealed that the flavin is covalently bound to histidine residue in the peptide STHW, consistent with the results of N-terminal amino acid sequencing by Edman degradation. The type of the aminoacyl flavin covalent link was determined by NMR spectroscopy, resulting in the structure 8alpha-(N(3)-histidyl)-FAD.

Abstract
We purified an intracellular pyranose oxidase from mycelial extracts of the white rot fungus Trametes multicolor by using ammonium sulfate fractionation, hydrophobic interaction, ion-exchange chromatography, and gel filtration. The native enzyme has a molecular mass of 270 kDa as determined by equilibrium ultracentrifugation and is composed of four identical 68-kDa subunits as determined by matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization mass spectrometry. Each subunit contains one covalently bound flavin adenine dinucleotide as its prosthetic group. The enzyme oxidizes several aldopyranoses specifically at position C-2, and its preferred electron donor substrates are D-glucose, D-xylose, and L-sorbose. During this oxidation reaction electrons are transferred to oxygen, yielding hydrogen peroxide. In addition, the enzyme catalyzes the two-electron reduction of 1,4-benzoquinone, several substituted benzoquinones, and 2,6-dichloroindophenol, as well as the one-electron reduction of the ABTS [2,2'-azinobis(3-ethylbenzthiazolinesulfonic acid)] cation radical. As judged by the catalytic efficiencies (k(cat)/K(m)), some of these quinone electron acceptors are much better substrates for pyranose oxidase than oxygen. The optimum pH of the pyranose oxidase-catalyzed reaction depends strongly on the electron acceptor employed and varies from 4 to 8. It has been proposed that the main metabolic function of pyranose oxidase is as a constituent of the ligninolytic system of white rot fungi that provides peroxidases with H(2)O(2). An additional function could be reduction of quinones, key intermediates that are formed during mineralization of lignin.

Abstract
A rapid and elegant method for designing oligonucleotide hybridisation probes for cloning cDNA encoding a biologically and/or biotechnologically important protein is presented. The approach is based on proteolytic digestion of a protein of interest and subsequent matrix/assisted laser desorption/ionisation mass spectrometric (MALDI-MS) analysis of the resulting peptide mixture. The method is demonstrated on the analysis of pyranose 2-oxidase (P2O), a homotetrameric flavoprotein used as a catalyst component in several biotechnologically important carbohydrate conversions. P2O from the fungusTrametes multicolorwas cleaved directly in the gel by two different proteases and the peptides formed were subjected to MALDI-MS. A comparison of the obtained peptide maps to those theoretically derived from the known sequence of homologous P2O (Trametes versicolor) allowed us to select peptide candidates for designing hybridisation probes. The suitable peptides were sequenced by post-source decay (PSD) analysis. The acquired sequence data are aimed at cloning and sequencing ofT. multicolor p2ocDNA and at production of the recombinant enzyme.
