Cascade reactions with two non-physiological partners for NAD(P)H regeneration via renewable hydrogen. Biotechnol J 2024; 19:e2300567.

Abstract
An attractive application of hydrogenases, combined with the availability of cheap and renewable hydrogen (i.e., from solar and wind powered electrolysis or from recycled wastes), is the production of high-value electron-rich intermediates such as reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotides. Here, the capability of a very robust and oxygen-resilient [FeFe]-hydrogenase (CbA5H) from Clostridium beijerinckii SM10, previously identified in our group, combined with a reductase (BMR) from Bacillus megaterium (now reclassified as Priestia megaterium) was tested. The system shows a good stability and it was demonstrated to reach up to 28 ± 2 nmol NADPH regenerated s-1 mg of hydrogenase-1 (i.e., 1.68 ± 0.12 U mg-1, TOF: 126 ± 9 min-1) and 0.46 ± 0.04 nmol NADH regenerated s-1 mg of hydrogenase-1 (i.e., 0.028 ± 0.002 U mg-1, TOF: 2.1 ± 0.2 min-1), meaning up to 74 mg of NADPH and 1.23 mg of NADH produced per hour by a system involving 1 mg of CbA5H. The TOF is comparable with similar systems based on hydrogen as regenerating molecule for NADPH, but the system is first of its kind as for the [FeFe]-hydrogenase and the non-physiological partners used. As a proof of concept a cascade reaction involving CbA5H, BMR and a mutant BVMO from Acinetobacter radioresistens able to oxidize indole is presented. The data show how the cascade can be exploited for indigo production and multiple reaction cycles can be sustained using the regenerated NADPH.

Abstract
Most natural formate dehydrogenases (FDHs) exhibit NAD+ specificity, making it imperative to explore the engineering of FDH cofactor specificity for NADPH regeneration systems. The endogenous FDH of Komagataella phaffii (K. phaffii), termed KphFDH, is a typical NAD+ -specific FDH. However, investigations into engineering the cofactor specificity of KphFDH have yet to be conducted. To develop an NADP+ -specific variant of KphFDH, we selected D195, Y196, and Q197 as mutation sites and generated twenty site-directed variants. Through kinetic characterization, KphFDH/V19 (D195Q/Y196R/Q197H) was identified as the variant with the highest specificity towards NADP+ , with a ratio of catalytic efficiency (kcat /KM )NADP+ /(kcat /KM )NAD+ of 129.226. Studies of enzymatic properties revealed that the optimal temperature and pH for the reduction reaction of NADP+ catalyzed by KphFDH/V19 were 45 °C and 7.5, respectively. The molecular dynamics (MD) simulation was performed to elucidate the mechanism of high catalytic activity of KphFDH/V19 towards NADP+ . Finally, KphFDH/V19 was applied to an in vitro NADPH regeneration system with Meso-diaminopimelate dehydrogenase from Symbiobacterium thermophilum (StDAPDH/H227V). This study successfully created a KphFDH variant with high NADP+ specificity and demonstrated its practical applicability in an in vitro NADPH regeneration system.

Abstract
We have developed an electrical-biological hybrid system wherein an engineered microorganism consumes electrocatalytically produced formate from CO2 to supplement the bioproduction of isobutanol, a valuable fuel chemical. Biological CO2 sequestration is notoriously slow compared to electrochemical CO2 reduction, while electrochemical methods struggle to generate carbon-carbon bonds which readily form in biological systems. A hybrid system provides a promising method for combining the benefits of both biology and electrochemistry. Previously, Escherichia coli was engineered to assimilate formate and CO2 in central metabolism using the reductive glycine pathway. In this work, we have shown that chemical production in E. coli can benefit from single carbon substrates when equipped with the RGP. By installing the RGP and the isobutanol biosynthetic pathway into E. coli and by further genetic modifications, we have generated a strain of E. coli that can consume formate and produce isobutanol at a yield of >100% of theoretical maximum from glucose. Our results demonstrate that carbon produced from electrocatalytically reduced CO2 can bolster chemical production in E. coli. This study shows that E. coli can be engineered towards carbon efficient methods of chemical production.

Abstract
Candida boidinii NAD+-dependent formate dehydrogenase (CbFDH) has gained significant attention for its potential application in the production of biofuels and various industrial chemicals from inorganic carbon dioxide. The present study reports the atomic X-ray crystal structures of wild-type CbFDH at cryogenic and ambient temperatures, as well as that of the Val120Thr mutant at cryogenic temperature, determined at the Turkish Light Source `Turkish DeLight'. The structures reveal new hydrogen bonds between Thr120 and water molecules in the active site of the mutant CbFDH, suggesting increased stability of the active site and more efficient electron transfer during the reaction. Further experimental data is needed to test these hypotheses. Collectively, these findings provide invaluable insights into future protein-engineering efforts that could potentially enhance the efficiency and effectiveness of CbFDH.

Abstract
Structural diverse natural products like ribosomally synthesized and posttranslationally modified peptides (RiPPs) display a wide range of biological activities. Currently, the mechanism of an uncommon reaction step during the biosynthesis of 3-thiaglutamate (3-thiaGlu) is poorly understood. The removal of the β-carbon from the Cys in the TglA-Cys peptide catalyzed by the TglHI holoenzyme remains elusive. Here, we present three crystal structures of TglHI complexes with and without bound iron, which reveal that the catalytic pocket is formed by the interaction of TglH-TglI and that its activation is conformation dependent. Biochemical assays suggest a minimum of two iron ions in the active cluster, and we identify the position of a third iron site. Collectively, our study offers insights into the activation and catalysis mechanisms of the non-heme dioxygen-dependent holoenzyme TglHI. Additionally, it highlights the evolutionary and structural conservation in the DUF692 family of biosynthetic enzymes that produce diverse RiPPs.

Abstract
The pressure to optimize enzymatic rate accelerations has driven the evolution of the induced-fit mechanism for enzyme catalysts where the binding interactions of nonreacting phosphodianion or adenosyl substrate pieces drive enzyme conformational changes to form protein substrate cages that are activated for catalysis. We report the results of experiments to test the hypothesis that utilization of the binding energy of the adenosine 5'-diphosphate ribose (ADP-ribose) fragment of the NAD cofactor to drive a protein conformational change activates Candida boidinii formate dehydrogenase (CbFDH) for catalysis of hydride transfer from formate to NAD+. The ADP-ribose fragment provides a >14 kcal/mol stabilization of the transition state for CbFDH-catalyzed hydride transfer from formate to NAD+. This is larger than the ca. 6 kcal/mol stabilization of the ground-state Michaelis complex between CbFDH and NAD+ (KNAD = 0.032 mM). The ADP, AMP, and ribose 5'-phosphate fragments of NAD+ activate CbFDH for catalysis of hydride transfer from formate to nicotinamide riboside (NR). At a 1.0 M standard state, these activators stabilize the hydride transfer transition states by ≈5.5 (ADP), 5.5 (AMP), and 4.4 (ribose 5'-phosphate) kcal/mol. We propose that activation by these cofactor fragments is partly or entirely due to the ion-pair interaction between the guanidino side chain cation of R174 and the activator phosphate anion. This substitutes for the interaction between the α-adenosyl pyrophosphate anion of the whole NAD+ cofactor that holds CbFDH in the catalytically active closed conformation.

Abstract
Direct biocatalytic processes for CO2 capture and transformation in value-added chemicals may be considered a useful tool for reducing the concentration of this greenhouse gas in the atmosphere. Among the other enzymes, carbonic anhydrase (CA) and formate dehydrogenase (FDH) are two key biocatalysts suitable for this challenge, facilitating the uptake of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere in complementary ways. Carbonic anhydrases accelerate CO2 uptake by promoting its solubility in water in the form of hydrogen carbonate as the first step in converting the gas into a species widely used in carbon capture storage and its utilization processes (CCSU), particularly in carbonation and mineralization methods. On the other hand, formate dehydrogenases represent the biocatalytic machinery evolved by certain organisms to convert CO2 into enriched, reduced, and easily transportable hydrogen species, such as formic acid, via enzymatic cascade systems that obtain energy from chemical species, electrochemical sources, or light. Formic acid is the basis for fixing C1-carbon species to other, more reduced molecules. In this review, the state-of-the-art of both methods of CO2 uptake is assessed, highlighting the biotechnological approaches that have been developed using both enzymes.

Abstract
ATP is the energy currency of the cell and new methods for ATP regeneration will benefit a range of emerging biotechnology applications including synthetic cells. We designed and assembled a membraneless ATP-regenerating enzymatic cascade by exploiting the substrate specificities of selected NAD(P)(H)-dependent oxidoreductases combined with substrate-specific kinases. The enzymes in the NAD(P)(H) cycle were selected to avoid cross-reactions, and the cascade was driven by irreversible fuel oxidation. As a proof-of-concept, formate oxidation was chosen as the fueling reaction. ATP regeneration was accomplished via the phosphorylation of NADH to NADPH and the subsequent transfer of the phosphate to ADP by a reversible NAD+ kinase. The cascade was able to regenerate ATP at a high rate (up to 0.74 mmol/L/h) for hours, and >90% conversion of ADP to ATP using monophosphate was also demonstrated. The cascade was used to regenerate ATP for use in cell free protein synthesis reactions, and the ATP production rate was further enhanced when powered by the multistep oxidation of methanol. The NAD(P)(H) cycle provides a simple cascade for the in vitro regeneration of ATP without the need for a pH-gradient or costly phosphate donors.

Abstract
Multi-enzymatic cascades with enzymes arranged in close-proximity through a protein scaffold can trigger a substrate channeling effect, allowing for efficient cofactor reuse with industrial potential. However, precise nanometric organization of enzymes challenges the design of scaffolds. In this study, we create a nanometrically organized multi-enzymatic system exploiting engineered Tetrapeptide Repeat Affinity Proteins (TRAPs) as scaffolding for biocatalysis. We genetically fuse TRAP domains and program them to selectively and orthogonally recognize peptide-tags fused to enzymes, which upon binding form spatially organized metabolomes. In addition, the scaffold encodes binding sites to selectively and reversibly sequester reaction intermediates like cofactors via electrostatic interactions, increasing their local concentration and, consequently, the catalytic efficiency. This concept is demonstrated for the biosynthesis of amino acids and amines using up to three enzymes. Scaffolded multi-enzyme systems present up to 5-fold higher specific productivity than the non-scaffolded ones. In-depth analysis suggests that channeling of NADH cofactor between the assembled enzymes enhances the overall cascade throughput and the product yield. Moreover, we immobilize this biomolecular scaffold on solid supports, creating reusable heterogeneous multi-functional biocatalysts for consecutive operational batch cycles. Our results demonstrate the potential of TRAP-scaffolding systems as spatial-organizing tools to increase the efficiency of cell-free biosynthetic pathways.

Abstract
Salvianic acid A (SAA), used for treating cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, possesses several pharmacological properties. However, the current methods for the enzymatic synthesis of SAA show low efficiency. Here, we constructed a three-enzyme cascade pathway in Escherichia coli BL21 (DE3) to produce SAA from L-dihydroxyphenylalanine (L-DOPA). The phenylpyruvate reductase (LaPPR) from Lactobacillus sp. CGMCC 9967 is a rate-limiting enzyme in this process. Therefore, we employed a mechanism-guided protein engineering strategy to shorten the transfer distances of protons and hydrides, generating an optimal LaPPR mutant, LaPPRMu2 (H89M/H143D/P256C), with a 2.8-fold increase in specific activity and 9.3-time increase in kcat/Km value compared to that of the wild type. Introduction of the mutant LaPPRMu2 into the cascade pathway and the optimization of enzyme levels and transformation conditions allowed the obtainment of the highest SAA titer (82.6 g L-1) ever reported in vivo, good conversion rate (91.3%), excellent ee value (99%) and the highest productivity (6.9 g L-1 h-1) from 90 g L-1 L-DOPA in 12 h. This successful strategy provides a potential new method for the industrial production of SAA.

Abstract
Encapsulation of enzymes inside protein cage structures, mimicking protein-based organelle structures found in nature, has great potential for the development of new catalytic materials with enhanced properties. In vitro and in vivo methodologies have been developed for the encapsulation of enzymes within protein cage structures of several types, particularly virus-like particles (VLPs), with the ability to retain the activity of the encapsulated enzymes. Here, we examine the in vivo encapsulation of enzymes within the bacteriophage P22 derived VLP and show that some enzymes may require a delay in encapsulation to allow proper folding and maturation before they can be encapsulated inside P22 as fully active enzymes. Using a sequential expression strategy, where enzyme cargoes are first expressed, allowed to fold, and later encapsulated by the expression of the P22 coat protein, altered enzymatic activities are obtained in comparison to enzymes encapsulated in P22 VLPs using a simultaneous coexpression strategy. The strategy and results discussed here highlight important considerations for researchers investigating the encapsulation of enzymes inside confined reaction environments via in vivo routes and provide a potential solution for those that have been unable to produce active enzymes upon encapsulation.

Improving the Enzymatic Cascade of Reactions for the Reduction of CO2 to CH3OH in Water: From Enzymes Immobilization Strategies to Cofactor Regeneration and Cofactor Suppression. Molecules 2022; 27:molecules27154913.

Abstract
The need to decrease the concentration of CO2 in the atmosphere has led to the search for strategies to reuse such molecule as a building block for chemicals and materials or a source of carbon for fuels. The enzymatic cascade of reactions that produce the reduction of CO2 to methanol seems to be a very attractive way of reusing CO2; however, it is still far away from a potential industrial application. In this review, a summary was made of all the advances that have been made in research on such a process, particularly on two salient points: enzyme immobilization and cofactor regeneration. A brief overview of the process is initially given, with a focus on the enzymes and the cofactor, followed by a discussion of all the advances that have been made in research, on the two salient points reported above. In particular, the enzymatic regeneration of NADH is compared to the chemical, electrochemical, and photochemical conversion of NAD+ into NADH. The enzymatic regeneration, while being the most used, has several drawbacks in the cost and life of enzymes that suggest attempting alternative solutions. The reduction in the amount of NADH used (by converting CO2 electrochemically into formate) or even the substitution of NADH with less expensive mimetic molecules is discussed in the text. Such an approach is part of the attempt made to take stock of the situation and identify the points on which work still needs to be conducted to reach an exploitation level of the entire process.

Abstract
SignificanceBiological carbon fixation provides opportunities to directly utilize CO2 to synthesize a broad range of value-added compounds, potentially displacing petroleum feedstock use in industry. Chemoautotrophs are particularly interesting as their carbon fixation can be driven chemically by renewable H2 in place of light, which can limit industrial fermentation of photosynthetic organisms. We describe the development of a methanogenic host, Methanococcus maripaludis, for metabolic engineering. Since redox cofactors used in upstream archaeal carbon fixation pathways are orthogonal to typical downstream biosynthetic pathways, it was necessary to engineer both NADH biosynthesis and turnover. In doing so, we are able to show that methanogenic archaea can, indeed, serve as a platform for the high-yield production of bioplastics and monomers from CO2 and H2.

Abstract
![]()
Asymmetric catalytic
azidation has increased in importance to access
enantioenriched nitrogen containing molecules, but methods that employ
inexpensive sodium azide remain scarce. This encouraged us to undertake
a detailed study on the application of hydrogen bonding phase-transfer
catalysis (HB-PTC) to enantioselective azidation with sodium azide.
So far, this phase-transfer manifold has been applied exclusively
to insoluble metal alkali fluorides for carbon–fluorine bond
formation. Herein, we disclose the asymmetric ring opening of meso aziridinium electrophiles derived from β-chloroamines
with sodium azide in the presence of a chiral bisurea catalyst. The
structure of novel hydrogen bonded azide complexes was analyzed computationally,
in the solid state by X-ray diffraction, and in solution phase by 1H and 14N/15N NMR spectroscopy. With N-isopropylated BINAM-derived bisurea, end-on binding of
azide in a tripodal fashion to all three NH bonds is energetically
favorable, an arrangement reminiscent of the corresponding dynamically
more rigid trifurcated hydrogen-bonded fluoride complex. Computational
analysis informs that the most stable transition state leading to
the major enantiomer displays attack from the hydrogen-bonded end
of the azide anion. All three H-bonds are retained in the transition
state; however, as seen in asymmetric HB-PTC fluorination, the H-bond
between the nucleophile and the monodentate urea lengthens most noticeably
along the reaction coordinate. Kinetic studies corroborate with the
turnover rate limiting event resulting in a chiral ion pair containing
an aziridinium cation and a catalyst-bound azide anion, along with
catalyst inhibition incurred by accumulation of NaCl. This study demonstrates
that HB-PTC can serve as an activation mode for inorganic salts other
than metal alkali fluorides for applications in asymmetric synthesis.

Abstract
Carbon dioxide (CO2) has been increasingly regarded not only as a greenhouse gas but also as a valuable feedstock for carbon-based chemicals. In particular, biological approaches have drawn attention as models for the production of value-added products, as CO2 conversion serves many natural processes. Enzymatic CO2 reduction in vitro is a very promising route to produce fossil free and bio-based fuel alternatives, such as methanol. In this chapter, the advances in constructing competitive multi-enzymatic systems for the reduction of CO2 to methanol are discussed. Different integrated methods are presented, aiming to address technological challenges, such as the cost effectiveness, need for material regeneration and reuse and improving product yields of the process.

Abstract
Sulfide and transition metals often came together in Biology. The variety of possible structural combinations enabled living organisms to evolve an array of highly versatile metal-sulfide centers to fulfill different physiological roles. The ubiquitous iron‑sulfur centers, with their structural, redox, and functional diversity, are certainly the best-known partners, but other metal-sulfide centers, involving copper, nickel, molybdenum or tungsten, are equally crucial for Life. This review provides a concise overview of the exclusive sulfide properties as a metal ligand, with emphasis on the structural aspects and biosynthesis. Sulfide as catalyst and as a substrate is discussed. Different enzymes are considered, including xanthine oxidase, formate dehydrogenases, nitrogenases and carbon monoxide dehydrogenases. The sulfide effect on the activity and function of iron‑sulfur, heme and zinc proteins is also addressed.

Abstract
The application of co-solvents and high pressure has been shown to be an efficient means to modify the kinetics of enzyme-catalyzed reactions without compromising enzyme stability, which is often limited by temperature modulation. In this work, the high-pressure stopped-flow methodology was applied in conjunction with fast UV/Vis detection to investigate kinetic parameters of formate dehydrogenase reaction (FDH), which is used in biotechnology for cofactor recycling systems. Complementary FTIR spectroscopic and differential scanning fluorimetric studies were performed to reveal pressure and temperature effects on the structure and stability of the FDH. In neat buffer solution, the kinetic efficiency increases by one order of magnitude by increasing the temperature from 25° to 45 °C and the pressure from ambient up to the kbar range. The addition of particular co-solvents further doubled the kinetic efficiency of the reaction, in particular the compatible osmolyte trimethylamine-N-oxide and its mixtures with the macromolecular crowding agent dextran. The thermodynamic model PC-SAFT was successfully applied within a simplified activity-based Michaelis-Menten framework to predict the effects of co-solvents on the kinetic efficiency by accounting for interactions involving substrate, co-solvent, water, and FDH. Especially mixtures of the co-solvents at high concentrations were beneficial for the kinetic efficiency and for the unfolding temperature.

Abstract
This review examines low-frequency vibrational modes of proteins and their coupling to enzyme catalytic sites. That protein motions are critical to enzyme function is clear, but the kinds of motions present in proteins and how they are involved in function remain unclear. Several models of enzyme-catalyzed reaction suggest that protein dynamics may be involved in the chemical step of the catalyzed reaction, but the evidence in support of such models is indirect. Spectroscopic studies of low-frequency protein vibrations consistently show that there are underdamped modes of the protein with frequencies in the tens of wavenumbers where overdamped behavior would be expected. Recent studies even show that such underdamped vibrations modulate enzyme active sites. These observations suggest that increasingly sophisticated spectroscopic methods will be able to unravel the link between low-frequency protein vibrations and enzyme function.

Abstract
The NAD+-dependent formate dehydrogenase (FDH; EC 1.2.1.2) from Candida boidinii (CboFDH) has been extensively used in NAD(H)-dependent industrial biocatalysis as well as in the production of renewable fuels and chemicals from carbon dioxide. In the present work, the effect of amino acid residues Phe285, Gln287, and His311 on structural stability was investigated by site-directed mutagenesis. The wild-type and mutant enzymes (Gln287Glu, His311Gln, and Phe285Thr/His311Gln) were cloned and expressed in Escherichia coli. Circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopy was used to determine the effect of each mutation on thermostability. The results showed the decisive roles of Phe285, Gln287, and His311 on enhancing the enzyme's thermostability. The melting temperatures for the wild-type and the mutant enzymes Gln287Glu, His311Gln, and Phe285Thr/His311Gln were 64, 70, 77, and 73 °C, respectively. The effects of pH and temperature on catalytic activity of the wild-type and mutant enzymes were also investigated. Interestingly, the mutant enzyme His311Gln exhibits a large shift of pH optimum at the basic pH range (1 pH unit) and substantial increase of the optimum temperature (25 °C). The present work supports the multifunctional role of the conserved residues Phe285, Gln287, and His311 and further underlines their pivotal roles as targets in protein engineering studies.

Abstract
Formate dehydrogenase from Candida boidinii (EC.1.2.1.2; CbFDH) is a commercially available enzyme and can be easily handled as a catalyst for the CO2 reduction to formate in the presence of NADH, single-electron reduced methylviologen (MV+˙) and so on. It was found that the formate oxidation to CO2 with CbFDH was suppressed using the oxidized MV as a co-enzyme and the single-electron reduced MV (MV+˙) was effective for the catalytic activity of CbFDH for the CO2 reduction to formate compared with that using the natural co-enzyme of NADH [Y. Amao, Chem. Lett., 2017, 46, 780-788]. The CO2 reduction to formate catalyzed by CbFDH requires two molecules of the MV+˙. In order to clarify the two-electron reduction process using MV+˙ in the CO2 reduction to formate catalyzed with CbFDH, we attempted enzyme reaction kinetics, electrochemical and quantum chemical analyses. Kinetic parameters obtained from the enzymatic kinetic analysis metric revealed an index of affinity of MV+˙ for CbFDH in the CO2 reduction to formate. From the results of the electrochemical analysis, it was predicted that only one molecule of MV+˙ was bound to CbFDH, and the MV bound to CbFDH was to be necessarily re-reduced by the electron source outside of CbFDH to supply the second electron in the CO2 reduction to formate. From the results of docking simulation and density functional theory (DFT) calculations, it was indicated that one molecule of MV bound to the position close to CO2 in the inner part of the substrate binding pocket of CbFDH contributed to the two-electron CO2 reduction to formate.

Abstract
Formate dehydrogenases are critical tools for nicotinamide cofactor regeneration, but their limited catalytic efficiency (kcat/Km) is a major drawback. A formate dehydrogenase from Burkholderia stabilis 15516 (BstFDH) was the first native NADP+-dependent formate dehydrogenase reported and has the highest kcat/Km toward NADP+ (kcat/KmNADP+) compared with other FDHs that can utilize NADP+ as a hydrogen acceptor. However, the substrate and cofactor affinities of BstFDH are inferior to those of other FDHs, making its practical application difficult. Herein, we engineered recombinant BstFDH to enhance its HCOO- and NADP+ affinities. Based on sequence information analysis and homologous modeling results, I124, G146, S262, and A287 were found to affect the binding affinity for HCOO- and NADP+. By combining these mutations, we identified a BstFDH variant (G146M/A287G) that reduced KmNADP+ to 0.09 mM, with a concomitant decrease in KmHCOO-, and gave 1.6-fold higher kcat/KmNADP+ than the wild type (WT). Furthermore, BstFDH I124V/G146H/A287G, with the lowest KmHCOO- of 8.51 mM, showed a catalytic efficiency that was 2.3-fold higher than that of the wild type and a decreased KmNADP+ of 0.11 mM. These results are beneficial for improving the performance of NADP+-dependent formate dehydrogenase in the NADPH regeneration of various bioreductive reactions and provide a useful guide for engineering of the substrate and cofactor affinity of other enzymes.

Abstract
Oxidation of formate to CO2 is catalyzed via the donation of electrons from formate dehydrogenase (FDH) to nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+), and thus the charge transport characteristics of FDH become essential but remain unexplored. Here, we investigated the charge transport through single-enzyme junctions of FDH using the scanning tunneling microscope break junction technique (STM-BJ). We found that the coupling of NAD+ with FDH boosts the charge transport by ∼2,100%, and the single-enzyme conductance highly correlates with the enzyme activity. The combined flicker noise analysis demonstrated the switching of the coenzyme-mediated charge transport pathway and supported by the significantly reduced HOMO-LUMO gap from calculations. Site-specific mutagenesis analysis demonstrated that FDH-NAD+ stably combined own higher bioactivity and boosts charge transport, and the coupling has been optimized via the natural selection. Our work provides evidence of hydrogen bond coupling in bioactivity but also bridges the charge transport through single-enzyme junctions and enzyme activities. Binding of NAD+ with FDH boosts the charge transport by more than 2,100% Single-enzyme conductance highly correlates with the enzyme activity Hydrogen bond bridges the charge transport and enzyme activities Experiments combined with calculations probe switching of charge transport pathway

Abstract
Thermal motions of enzymes have been invoked to explain the temperature dependence of kinetic isotope effects (KIE) in enzyme-catalyzed hydride transfers. Formate dehydrogenase (FDH) from Candida boidinii exhibits a temperature independent KIE that becomes temperature dependent upon mutation of hydrophobic residues in the active site. Ternary complexes of FDH that mimic the transition state structure allow investigation of how these mutations influence active-site dynamics. A combination of X-ray crystallography, two-dimensional infrared (2D IR) spectroscopy, and molecular dynamic simulations characterize the structure and dynamics of the active site. FDH exhibits oscillatory frequency fluctuations on the picosecond timescale, and the amplitude of these fluctuations correlates with the temperature dependence of the KIE. Both the kinetic and dynamic phenomena can be reproduced computationally. These results provide experimental evidence for a connection between the temperature dependence of KIEs and motions of the active site in an enzyme-catalyzed reaction consistent with activated tunneling models of the hydride transfer reaction.

Abstract
Isotope substitution of enzymes has become a means of addressing the participation of protein motions in enzyme-catalyzed reactions. The idea is that only the enzyme mass will be altered and not the electrostatics, so that the protein dynamics are essentially the same but at lower frequencies because of the mass change. In this study, we variably label all carbon atoms in formate dehydrogenase (FDH) with 13C, all nitrogen atoms with 15N, and all nonexchangeable hydrogen atoms with deuterium and investigate the impact that isotopic substitution has on the dynamics at the active site by two-dimensional infrared spectroscopy and compare with the measurements of the temperature dependence of the intrinsic kinetic isotope effects (KIEs). We show that 15N labeling of FDH has the largest effect and makes the active site more heterogeneous, whereas the addition of nonexchangeable deuterium appears to have the opposite effect of 15N on active-site dynamics, resulting in a behavior similar to that of native FDH. Nevertheless, the temperature dependence of the KIEs shows a monotonic trend with protein mass that does not correspond with the changes in dynamics. These results suggest that isotope labeling has more than just a mass effect on enzyme dynamics and may influence electrostatics in ways that complicate the interpretation of the protein isotope effect.

Abstract
Efficient utilization of bacterial bioresources requires quantitative evaluation of metabolic activity in living bacterial cells. Shewanella oneidensis MR-1 transfers electrons generated within the cell to the extracellular environment via the cytochrome complex in the inner/outer membranes and is one of the most useful bacteria for the recovery of metals, treatment of wastewater, and preparation of microbial fuel cells. Here, we performed a quantitative evaluation of electron generation based on individual enzyme reactions in S. oneidensis MR-1. By using potentiometric measurements, we have examined intracellular electron generation in bacterial suspensions of S. oneidensis supplemented with different carbon sources (formate, lactate, pyruvate, or acetyl coenzyme A) or ferricyanide, which was almost completely reduced to ferrocyanide during the incubation without affecting bacterial cell viability. The amount of electron generation strongly depended on the nature of the carbon source. Analysis of the obtained kinetic parameters of intracellular electron generation demonstrated that formate was the most effective carbon source, as it enabled 2.5-fold faster electron generation rate than other sources. We established that the respective contributions of lactate dehydrogenase, pyruvate dehydrogenase/pyruvate-formate-lyase, and tricarboxylic acid cycle to lactate metabolism were 62%, 31%, and 7.4%, correspondingly. Furthermore, we clarified that electrons may be generated at 1.6 × 10-12 A s-1 by ideal metabolism in a single living cell. These findings establish the basis for biological strategies of electron production and facilitate the utilization of S. oneidensis as a bioresource in practical applications, including energy production, environmental purification, and recovery of useful materials.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The family of D-isomer specific 2-hydroxyacid dehydrogenases (2HADHs) contains a wide range of oxidoreductases with various metabolic roles as well as biotechnological applications. Despite a vast amount of biochemical and structural data for various representatives of the family, the long and complex evolution and broad sequence diversity hinder functional annotations for uncharacterized members. RESULTS We report an in-depth phylogenetic analysis, followed by mapping of available biochemical and structural data on the reconstructed phylogenetic tree. The analysis suggests that some subfamilies comprising enzymes with similar yet broad substrate specificity profiles diverged early in the evolution of 2HADHs. Based on the phylogenetic tree, we present a revised classification of the family that comprises 22 subfamilies, including 13 new subfamilies not studied biochemically. We summarize characteristics of the nine biochemically studied subfamilies by aggregating all available sequence, biochemical, and structural data, providing comprehensive descriptions of the active site, cofactor-binding residues, and potential roles of specific structural regions in substrate recognition. In addition, we concisely present our analysis as an online 2HADH enzymes knowledgebase. CONCLUSIONS The knowledgebase enables navigation over the 2HADHs classification, search through collected data, and functional predictions of uncharacterized 2HADHs. Future characterization of the new subfamilies may result in discoveries of enzymes with novel metabolic roles and with properties beneficial for biotechnological applications.

Abstract
The origin of the catalytic power of enzymes has been a question of debate for a long time. In this regard, the possible contribution of protein dynamics in enzymatic catalysis has become one of the most controversial topics. In the present work, the hydride transfer step in the formate dehydrogenase (FDH EC 1.2.1.2) enzyme is studied by means of molecular dynamic (MD) simulations with quantum mechanics/molecular mechanics (QM/MM) potentials in order to explore any correlation between dynamics, tunnelling effects and the rate constant. The temperature dependence of the kinetic isotope effects (KIEs), which is one of the few tests that can be studied by experiments and simulations to shed light on this debate, has been computed and the results have been compared with previous experimental data. The classical mechanical free energy barrier and the number of recrossing trajectories seem to be temperature-independent while the quantum vibrational corrections and the tunnelling effects are slightly temperature-dependent over the interval of 5-45 °C. The computed primary KIEs are in very good agreement with previous experimental data, being almost temperature-independent within the standard deviations. The modest dependence on the temperature is due to just the quantum vibrational correction contribution. These results, together with the analysis of the evolution of the collective variables such as the electrostatic potential or the electric field created by the protein on the key atoms involved in the reaction, confirm that while the protein is well preorganised, some changes take place along the reaction that favour the hydride transfer and the product release. Coordinates defining these movements are, in fact, part of the real reaction coordinate.

Abstract
Isotopically labeled enzymes (denoted as "heavy" or "Born-Oppenheimer" enzymes) have been used to test the role of protein dynamics in catalysis. The original idea was that the protein's higher mass would reduce the frequency of its normal-modes without altering its electrostatics. Heavy enzymes have been used to test if the vibrations in the native enzyme are coupled to the chemistry it catalyzes, and different studies have resulted in ambiguous findings. Here the temperature-dependence of intrinsic kinetic isotope effects of the enzyme formate dehydrogenase is used to examine the distribution of H-donor to H-acceptor distance as a function of the protein's mass. The protein dynamics are altered in the heavy enzyme to diminish motions that determine the transition state sampling in the native enzyme, in accordance with a Born-Oppenheimer-like effect on bond activation. Findings of this work suggest components related to fast frequencies that can be explained by Born-Oppenheimer enzyme hypothesis (vibrational) and also slower time scale events that are non-Born-Oppenheimer in nature (electrostatic), based on evaluations of protein mass dependence of donor-acceptor distance and forward commitment to catalysis along with steady state and single turnover measurements. Together, the findings suggest that the mass modulation affected both local, fast, protein vibrations associated with the catalyzed chemistry and the protein's macromolecular electrostatics at slower time scales; that is, both Born-Oppenheimer and non-Born-Oppenheimer effects are observed. Comparison to previous studies leads to the conclusion that isotopic labeling of the protein may have different effects on different systems, however, making heavy enzyme studies a very exciting technique for exploring the dynamics link to catalysis in proteins.
