In silico mechanistic insights of ecofriendly synthesized AgNPs, SeNPs, rGO and Ag&SeNPs@rGONM's for biological applications and its toxicity evaluation using Artemia salina. CHEMOSPHERE 2024; 364:143159. [PMID: 39178963 DOI: 10.1016/j.chemosphere.2024.143159] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/03/2024] [Revised: 08/09/2024] [Accepted: 08/20/2024] [Indexed: 08/26/2024]
Abstract
The present study focused on Rosmarinus officinalis Linn. leaves extract (ROE) mediated synthesis of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs), selenium nanoparticles (SeNPs), reduced graphene oxide (rGO) and silver and selenium nanoparticles decorated on rGO nanomaterials (Ag&SeNPs@rGONM's) for its antibacterial and antifungal in silico mechanistic insight applications. In addition, the toxicity of the synthesized nanomaterials was evaluated using Artemia salina. The formation of AgNPs, SeNPs, rGO and Ag&SeNPs@rGONM's was completed within 1.0, 140, 120 and 144 h, respectively. Various optical and microscopic examinations were evident in the nanomaterial's synthesis. Further, the average size and stability of the synthesized nanomaterials were conformed through dynamic light scattering (DLS) and zeta potential analyzer, respectively. The synthesized Ag&SeNPs@rGONM's were pronounced promising results against Gram-negative bacteria of Escherichia coli and the results achieved from the route of entry and action, reactive oxygen species (ROS), and antioxidant nature of nanoparticles were evidence of its properties. Computational studies further supported these findings, indicating much of the phytochemicals present in ROE well interact with the bacterial surface proteins. Similarly, the synthesized Ag&SeNPs@rGONM's was effective against Fusarium graminearum and Alternaria alternata in a dose dependent manner than its original nanomaterials. In addition, the docking study also confirmed that rosmarinic acid and caffeic acid prominently interacted with the fungal proteins. Interestingly, Ag&SeNPs@rGONM's pronounced less toxic effect compared to AgNPs and SeNPs against Artemia salina, which shows its biocompatibility.

Abstract
Bacterial and fungal copper radical oxidases (CROs) from Auxiliary Activity Family 5 (AA5) are implicated in morphogenesis and pathogenesis. The unique catalytic properties of CROs also make these enzymes attractive biocatalysts for the transformation of small molecules and biopolymers. Despite a recent increase in the number of characterized AA5 members, especially from subfamily 2 (AA5_2), the catalytic diversity of the family as a whole remains underexplored. In the present study, phylogenetic analysis guided the selection of six AA5_2 members from diverse fungi for recombinant expression in Komagataella pfaffii (syn. Pichia pastoris) and biochemical characterization in vitro. Five of the targets displayed predominant galactose 6-oxidase activity (EC 1.1.3.9), and one was a broad-specificity aryl alcohol oxidase (EC 1.1.3.7) with maximum activity on the platform chemical 5-hydroxymethyl furfural (EC 1.1.3.47). Sequence alignment comparing previously characterized AA5_2 members to those from this study indicated various amino acid substitutions at active site positions implicated in the modulation of specificity.IMPORTANCEEnzyme discovery and characterization underpin advances in microbial biology and the application of biocatalysts in industrial processes. On one hand, oxidative processes are central to fungal saprotrophy and pathogenesis. On the other hand, controlled oxidation of small molecules and (bio)polymers valorizes these compounds and introduces versatile functional groups for further modification. The biochemical characterization of six new copper radical oxidases further illuminates the catalytic diversity of these enzymes, which will inform future biological studies and biotechnological applications.

Abstract
High hydrostatic pressure stabilized galactose oxidase (GaOx) at 70.0-80.0°C against thermal inactivation. The pseudo-first-order rate constant of inactivation kinact decreased by a factor of 8 at 80°C and by a factor of 44 at 72.5°C. The most pronounced effect of pressure was at the lowest studied temperature of 70.0°C with an activation volume of inactivation ΔV‡ of 78.8 cm3 mol-1. The optimal pressure against thermal inactivation was between 200 and 300 MPa. Unlike other enzymes, as temperature increased the ΔV‡ of inactivation decreased, and as pressure increased the activation energy of inactivation Eai increased. Combining the results for GaOx with earlier research on the pressure-induced stabilization of other enzymes suggests that ΔV‡ of inactivation correlates with the total molar volume of cavities larger than ~100 Å3 in enzyme monomers for enzymes near the optimal pH and whose thermal unfolding is not accompanied by oligomer dissociation.

Abstract
Copper complexes [Cu(L1H)ClO4] (1) and [Cu(L2)NO3] (2), which are relevant to the metal site of the galactose oxidase enzyme, were synthesized and characterized by different spectroscopic methods. L1H2 and L2H2 [where L1H2 stands for 2,2'-((1E,1'E)(2,2'-(pyridine-2,6-diyl)bis(2-phenylhydrazin-2-yl-1-ylidene))bis(methanylylidene))diphenol and L2H2 stands for 6,6'-((1E,1'E)-(2,2'-(pyridine-2,6-diyl)bis(2-phenylhydrazin-2-yl-1-ylidene))bis(methanylylidene))bis(2,4-di-tert-butylphenol), H stands for dissociable proton] are pentadentate ligands. These ligands provide pyridyl N, two imine N, and two non-innocent phenoxyl and phenolato O donors, forming complex 1 as a non-radical complex, while complex 2 is a phenoxyl radical complex. The molecular structures of complexes 1 and 2 were authenticated by X-ray crystallography. Benzyl alcohol oxidation was investigated, and the conversion of 9,10-dihydroanthracene to anthracene was examined to scrutinize the H-atom abstraction reaction. Nuclease activity with complexes 1 and 2 was investigated by self-activated plasmid DNA (pBR322) cleavage. Non-innocent properties of the ligand-containing phenolato function were investigated by DFT calculations.

Abstract
The rational structural and computational studies of a blue copper protein, pseudoazurin (PAz), and its Met16X (X = Phe, Leu, Val, Ile) variants gave clear functional meanings of the noncovalent interaction (NCI) through the second coordination sphere. The high-resolution X-ray crystal structures of Met16X PAz demonstrated that the active site geometry is significantly affected by the substitution of Met16, which is located within the NCI distance from the His81 imidazole ring at the copper active site. The computational chemistry calculations based on the crystal structure analyses confirmed that the NCI of S-π/CH-π (wild-type), π-π (Met16Phe), double CH-π (Met16Leu), and single CH-π (Met16Val and Met16Ile). The estimated interaction energies for the NCI demonstrated that the fine-tuning of the protein stability and Cu site properties form the second coordination sphere of PAz.

Abstract
The copper radical oxidases (CROs) are an evolutionary and functionally diverse group of enzymes established by the historically significant galactose 6-oxidase and glyoxal oxidase from fungi. Inducted in 2013, CROs now constitute Auxiliary Activity Family 5 (AA5) in the Carbohydrate-Active Enzymes (CAZy) classification. CROs catalyse the two-electron oxidation of their substrates using oxygen as the final electron acceptor and are particularly distinguished by a cross-linked tyrosine-cysteine co-factor that is integral to radical stabilization. Recently, there has been a significant increase in the biochemically and structurally characterized CROs, which has revealed an expanded natural diversity of catalytic activities in the family. This review provides a brief historical introduction to CRO biochemistry and structural biology as a foundation for an update on current advances in CRO enzymology, biotechnology, and biology across kingdoms of life.

Abstract
Copper radical oxidases (CROs) from Auxiliary Activity Family 5, Subfamily 2 (AA5_2), are organic cofactor-free biocatalysts for the selective oxidation of alcohols to the corresponding aldehydes. AA5_2 CROs comprise canonical galactose-6-oxidases as well as the more recently discovered general alcohol oxidases and aryl alcohol oxidases. Guided by primary and tertiary protein structural analyses, we targeted a distinct extended loop in the active site of a Colletotrichum graminicola aryl alcohol oxidase (CgrAAO) to explore its effect on catalysis in the broader context of AA5_2. Deletion of this loop, which is bracketed by a conserved disulfide bridge, significantly reduced the inherent activity of the enzyme toward extended galacto-oligosaccharides, as anticipated from molecular modeling. Unexpectedly, kinetic and product analysis on a range of monosaccharides and disaccharides revealed that an altered carbohydrate specificity in CgrAAO-Δloop was accompanied by a complete change in regiospecificity from C-6 to C-1 oxidation, thereby generating aldonic acids. C-1 regiospecificity is unprecedented in AA5 enzymes and is classically associated with flavin-dependent carbohydrate oxidases of Auxiliary Activity Family 3. Thus, this work further highlights the catalytic adaptability of the unique mononuclear copper radical active site and provides a basis for the design of improved biocatalysts for diverse potential applications.

Abstract
π-π stacking interaction is well-known to be one of the weak interactions. Its importance in the stabilization of protein structures and functionalization has been reported for various systems. We have focused on a single copper oxidase, galactose oxidase, which has the π-π stacking interaction of the alkylthio-substituted phenoxyl radical with the indole ring of the proximal tryptophan residue and catalyzes primary alcohol oxidation to give the corresponding aldehyde. This stacking interaction has been considered to stabilize the alkylthio-phenoxyl radical, but further details of the interaction are still unclear. In this review, we discuss the effect of the π-π stacking interaction of the alkylthio-substituted phenoxyl radical with an indole ring.

Abstract
Galactose oxidases (GalOxs) are well-known enzymes that have been identified in several fungal species and characterized using structural and enzymatic approaches. However, until very recently, almost no information on their biological functions was available. The Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) gene ruby particles in mucilage (RUBY) encodes a putative plant GalOx that is required for pectin cross-linking through modification of galactose (Gal) side chains and promotes cell-cell adhesion between seed coat epidermal cells. RUBY is one member of a family of seven putative GalOxs encoded in the Arabidopsis genome. To examine the function(s) of GalOxs in plants, we studied the remaining six galactose oxidase-like (GOXL) proteins. Like RUBY, four of these proteins (GOXL1, GOXL3, GOXL5 and GOXL6) were found to localize primarily to the apoplast, while GOXL2 and GOXL4 were found primarily in the cytoplasm. Complementation and GalOx assay data suggested that GOXL1, GOXL3 and possibly GOXL6 have similar biochemical activity to RUBY, whereas GOXL5 only weakly complemented and GOXL2 and GOXL4 showed no activity. Members of this protein family separated into four distinct clades prior to the divergence of the angiosperms. There have been recent duplications in Brassicaceae resulting in two closely related pairs of genes that have either retained similarity in expression (GOXL1 and GOXL6) or show expression divergence (GOXL3 and RUBY). Mutant phenotypes were not detected when these genes were disrupted, but their expression patterns suggest that these proteins may function in tissues that require mechanical reinforcements in the absence of lignification.

Abstract
There is significant contemporary interest in the application of enzymes to replace or augment chemical reagents toward the development of more environmentally sound and sustainable processes. In particular, copper radical oxidases (CRO) from Auxiliary Activity Family 5 Subfamily 2 (AA5_2) are attractive, organic cofactor-free catalysts for the chemoselective oxidation of alcohols to the corresponding aldehydes. These enzymes were first defined by the archetypal galactose-6-oxidase (GalOx, EC 1.1.3.13) from the fungus Fusarium graminearum. The recent discovery of specific alcohol oxidases (EC 1.1.3.7) and aryl alcohol oxidases (EC 1.1.3.47) within AA5_2 has indicated a potentially broad substrate scope among fungal CROs. However, only relatively few AA5_2 members have been characterized to date. Guided by sequence similarity network and phylogenetic analysis, twelve AA5_2 homologs have been recombinantly produced and biochemically characterized in the present study. As defined by their predominant activities, these comprise four galactose 6-oxidases, two raffinose oxidases, four broad-specificity primary alcohol oxidases, and two non-carbohydrate alcohol oxidases. Of particular relevance to applications in biomass valorization, detailed product analysis revealed that two CROs produce the bioplastics monomer furan-2,5-dicarboxylic acid (FDCA) directly from 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF). Furthermore, several CROs could desymmetrize glycerol (a by-product of the biodiesel industry) to D- or L-glyceraldehyde. This study furthers our understanding of CROs by doubling the number of characterized AA5_2 members, which may find future applications as biocatalysts in diverse processes.

A Putative Lignin Copper Oxidase from Trichoderma reesei. J Fungi (Basel) 2021; 7:jof7080643. [PMID: 34436182 PMCID: PMC8400822 DOI: 10.3390/jof7080643] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/08/2021] [Revised: 08/04/2021] [Accepted: 08/05/2021] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
The ability of Trichoderma reesei, a fungus widely used for the commercial production of hemicellulases and cellulases, to grow and modify technical soda lignin was investigated. By quantifying fungal genomic DNA, T. reesei showed growth and sporulation in solid and liquid cultures containing lignin alone. The analysis of released soluble lignin and residual insoluble lignin was indicative of enzymatic oxidative conversion of phenolic lignin side chains and the modification of lignin structure by cleaving the β-O-4 linkages. The results also showed that polymerization reactions were taking place. A proteomic analysis conducted to investigate secreted proteins at days 3, 7, and 14 of growth revealed the presence of five auxiliary activity (AA) enzymes in the secretome: AA6, AA9, two AA3 enzymes), and the only copper radical oxidase encoded in the genome of T. reesei. This enzyme was heterologously produced and characterized, and its activity on lignin-derived molecules was investigated. Phylogenetic characterization demonstrated that this enzyme belonged to the AA5_1 family, which includes characterized glyoxal oxidases. However, the enzyme displayed overlapping physicochemical and catalytic properties across the AA5 family. The enzyme was remarkably stable at high pH and oxidized both, alcohols and aldehydes with preference to the alcohol group. It was also active on lignin-derived phenolic molecules as well as simple carbohydrates. HPSEC and LC-MS analyses on the reactions of the produced protein on lignin dimers (SS ββ, SS βO4 and GG β5) uncovered the polymerizing activity of this enzyme, which was accordingly named lignin copper oxidase (TrLOx). Polymers of up 10 units were formed by hydroxy group oxidation and radical formation. The activations of lignin molecules by TrLOx along with the co-secretion of this enzyme with reductases and FAD flavoproteins oxidoreductases during growth on lignin suggest a synergistic mechanism for lignin breakdown.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Biomass valorization has been suggested as a sustainable alternative to petroleum-based energy and commodities. In this context, the copper radical oxidases (CROs) from Auxiliary Activity Family 5/Subfamily 2 (AA5_2) are attractive biocatalysts for the selective oxidation of primary alcohols to aldehydes. Originally defined by the archetypal galactose 6-oxidase from Fusarium graminearum, fungal AA5_2 members have recently been shown to comprise a wide range of specificities for aromatic, aliphatic and furan-based alcohols. This suggests a broader substrate scope of native CROs for applications. However, only 10% of the annotated AA5_2 members have been characterized to date. RESULTS Here, we define two homologues from the filamentous fungi Fusarium graminearum and F. oxysporum as predominant aryl alcohol oxidases (AAOs) through recombinant production in Pichia pastoris, detailed kinetic characterization, and enzyme product analysis. Despite possessing generally similar active-site architectures to the archetypal FgrGalOx, FgrAAO and FoxAAO have weak activity on carbohydrates, but instead efficiently oxidize specific aryl alcohols. Notably, both FgrAAO and FoxAAO oxidize hydroxymethyl furfural (HMF) directly to 5-formyl-2-furoic acid (FFCA), and desymmetrize the bioproduct glycerol to the uncommon L-isomer of glyceraldehyde. CONCLUSIONS This work expands understanding of the catalytic diversity of CRO from AA5_2 to include unique representatives from Fusarium species that depart from the well-known galactose 6-oxidase activity of this family. Detailed enzymological analysis highlights the potential biotechnological applications of these orthologs in the production of renewable plastic polymer precursors and other chemicals.

Abstract
Glyoxal oxidase (GLOX) is an extracellular source of H2O2 in white-rot secretomes, where it acts in concert with peroxidases to degrade lignin. It has been reported that GLOX requires activation prior to catalytic turnover and that a peroxidase system can fulfill this task. In this study, we verify that an oxidation product of horseradish peroxidase, the radical cation of 2,2'-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid), is an activator for GLOX. A spectroelectrochemical cell was used to generate the activating radical species, to continuously measure its concentration, and to simultaneously measure the catalytic activity of GLOX based on its O2 consumption. The results show that GLOX can undergo multiple catalytic turnovers upon activation and that activity increases with the activator concentration. However, we also found that the ABTS cation radical can serve as an electron acceptor which becomes visible in the absence of O2. Furthermore, GLOX activity is highly restrained by the naturally occurring, low O2 concentration. We conclude that GLOX is indeed an auxiliary enzyme for H2O2 production in white-rot secretomes. Its turnover rate is strongly regulated by the availability of O2 and the radical generating activity of peroxidases present in the secretome, which acts as a feedback loop for GLOX activity.

Abstract
Carbohydrates are widely abundant molecules present in a variety of forms. For their biosynthesis and modification, nature has evolved a plethora of carbohydrate-acting enzymes. Many of these enzymes are of particular interest for biotechnological applications, where they can be used as biocatalysts or biosensors. Among the enzymes catalysing conversions of carbohydrates are the carbohydrate oxidases. These oxidative enzymes belong to different structural families and use different cofactors to perform the oxidation reaction of CH-OH bonds in carbohydrates. The variety of carbohydrate oxidases available in nature reflects their specificity towards different sugars and selectivity of the oxidation site. Thanks to their properties, carbohydrate oxidases have received a lot of attention in basic and applied research, such that nowadays their role in biotechnological processes is of paramount importance. In this review we provide an overview of the available knowledge concerning the known carbohydrate oxidases. The oxidases are first classified according to their structural features. After a description on their mechanism of action, substrate acceptance and characterisation, we report on the engineering of the different carbohydrate oxidases to enhance their employment in biocatalysis and biotechnology. In the last part of the review we highlight some practical applications for which such enzymes have been exploited.

Abstract
The phenoxyl radical plays important roles in biological systems as cofactors in some metalloenzymes, such as galactose oxidase (GO) catalyzing oxidation of primary alcohols to give the corresponding aldehydes. Many metal(II)-phenoxyl radical complexes have hitherto been studied for understanding the detailed properties and reactivities of GO, and thus the nature of GO has gradually become clearer. However, the effects of the subtle geometric and electronic structural changes at the active site of GO, especially the structural change in the catalytic cycle and the effect of the second coordination sphere, have not been fully discussed yet. In this Review, we focus on further details of the model studies of GO and discuss the importance of the structural change at the active site of GO.

Abstract
The metal hydration state within a designed coiled coil can be progressively tuned across the full integer range (3 → 0 aqua ligands), by careful choice of a second sphere terminal residue, including the lesser used Trp. Potential implications include a four-fold change in MRI relaxivity when applied to lanthanide coiled coils.

Abstract
Galactose oxidase catalyzes a two-electron oxidation, mainly from the C6 hydroxyl group of D-galactose, with the concomitant reduction of water to hydrogen peroxide. This enzyme is secreted by Fusarium species and has several biotechnological applications. In this study, a screening of galactose oxidase production among species of the Fusarium fujikuroi species complex demonstrated Fusarium subglutinans to be the main producer. The truncated F. subglutinans gaoA gene coding for the mature galactose oxidase was expressed from the prokaryotic vector pTrcHis2B in the E. coli Rosetta™ (DE3) strain. The purified recombinant enzyme presented temperature and pH optima of 30 °C and 7.0, respectively, KM of 132.6 ± 18.18 mM, Vmax of 3.2 ± 0.18 µmol of H2O2/min, kcat of 12,243 s-1, and a catalytic efficiency (kcat/KM) of 9.2 × 104 M-1 s-1. In the presence of 50% glycerol, the enzyme showed a T50 of 59.77 °C and was stable for several hours at pH 8.0 and 4 °C. Besides D-(+)-galactose, the purified enzyme also acted against D-(+)-raffinose, α-D-(+)-melibiose, and methyl-α-D-galactopyranoside, and was strongly inhibited by SDS. Although the F. subglutinans gaoA gene was successfully expressed in E. coli, its endogenous transcription was not confirmed by RT-PCR.

Abstract
Enzyme-catalyzed reactions have begun to transform pharmaceutical manufacturing, offering levels of selectivity and tunability that can dramatically improve chemical synthesis. Combining enzymatic reactions into multistep biocatalytic cascades brings additional benefits. Cascades avoid the waste generated by purification of intermediates. They also allow reactions to be linked together to overcome an unfavorable equilibrium or avoid the accumulation of unstable or inhibitory intermediates. We report an in vitro biocatalytic cascade synthesis of the investigational HIV treatment islatravir. Five enzymes were engineered through directed evolution to act on non-natural substrates. These were combined with four auxiliary enzymes to construct islatravir from simple building blocks in a three-step biocatalytic cascade. The overall synthesis requires fewer than half the number of steps of the previously reported routes.

Abstract
In order to gain new insights into the effect of the π-π stacking interaction of the indole ring with the phenoxyl radical moiety as seen in the active form of galactose oxidase, we have prepared Ni(ii) complexes of a methoxy substituted salen-type ligand containing a pendent indole ring on the dinitrogen chelate backbone and characterized their one-electron oxidized forms. The X-ray crystal structure analysis and the other physicochemical experiments of the Ni(ii) complex revealed no significant intramolecular interaction of the indole ring with the coordination plane. On the other hand, the X-ray crystal structures of the oxidized Ni(ii) complex exhibited the π-π stacking interaction of the indole ring mainly with one of the two phenolate moieties. While the phenoxyl radical electron was delocalized on the two phenolate moieties in the Ni(ii)-salen coordination plane, the phenolate moiety in close contact with the indole moiety was considered to be the initial oxidation locus, indicating that the indole ring interacted with the phenoxyl radical by π-π stacking. The UV-vis-NIR spectrum of the oxidized Ni(ii) complex with the pendent indole ring was different from that of the complex without the side chain indole ring, but the differences were rather small in comparison with the oxidized Cu(ii)-salen complexes with the π-π stacking interaction of the indole ring. Such differences are due to the electronic structure difference, the localized radical electron on one of the phenolate moieties in the oxidized Cu(ii) complexes being more favorable for the π-π stacking interaction.

Abstract
Cryptochromes function as flavin-binding photoreceptors in bacteria, fungi, algae, land plants, and insects. The discovery of an animal-like cryptochrome in the green alga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii has expanded the spectral range of sensitivity of these receptors from ultraviolet A/blue light to almost the complete visible spectrum. The broadened light response has been explained by the presence of the flavin neutral radical as a chromophore in the dark. Concomitant with photoconversion of the flavin, an unusually long-lived tyrosyl radical with a red-shifted ultraviolet-visible spectrum is formed, which is essential for the function of the receptor. In this study, the microenvironment of this key residue, tyrosine 373, was scrutinized using time-resolved Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy on several variants of animal-like cryptochrome and density functional theory for band assignment. The reduced tyrosine takes on distinct hydrogen bond scenarios depending on the presence of the C-terminal extension and of a neighboring cysteine. Upon radical formation, all variants showed a signal at 1400 cm-1, which we assigned to the ν7'a marker band of the CO stretching mode. The exceptionally strong downshift of this band cannot be attributed to a loss of hydrogen bonding only. Time-resolved ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy on W322F, a mutant of the neighboring tryptophan residue, revealed a decrease of the tyrosyl radical lifetime by almost two orders of magnitude, along with a shift of the absorbance maximum from 416 to 398 nm. These findings strongly support the concept of a π-π stacking as an apolar interaction between Y373 and W322 to be responsible for the characteristics of the tyrosyl radical. This concept of radical stabilization has been unknown to cryptochromes so far but might be highly relevant for other homologs with a tetrad of tryptophans and tyrosines as electron donors.

The X-ray crystal structures of the oxidized CuII complex exhibited the π-π stacking interaction of the indole ring mainly with one of the two phenolate moieties. The phenolate moiety in close contact with the indole moiety showed the characteristic phenoxyl radical structural features, indicating that the indole ring favors the π-π stacking interaction with the phenoxyl radical. The UV/Vis/NIR spectra of the oxidized CuII complex with the pendent indole ring was significantly different from those of the complex without the side-chain indole ring, and the absorption and CD spectra exhibited a solvent dependence, which is in line with the phenoxyl radical-indole stacking interaction in solution. The other physicochemical results and theoretical calculations strongly support that the indole ring, as an electron donor, stabilizes the phenoxyl radical by the π-π stacking interaction.

Abstract
Copper radical alcohol oxidases belonging to auxiliary activity family 5, subfamily 2 (AA5_2) catalyze the oxidation of galactose and galactosides, as well as aliphatic alcohols. Despite their broad applied potential, so far very few AA5_2 members have been biochemically characterized. We report the recombinant production and biochemical characterization of an AA5_2 oxidase from Penicillium rubens Wisconsin 54–1255 (PruAA5_2A), which groups within an unmapped clade phylogenetically distant from those comprising AA5_2 members characterized to date. PruAA5_2 preferentially oxidized raffinose over galactose; however, its catalytic efficiency was 6.5 times higher on glycolaldehyde dimer compared to raffinose. Deep sequence analysis of characterized AA5_2 members highlighted amino acid pairs correlated to substrate range and conserved within the family. Moreover, PruAA5_2 activity spans substrate preferences previously reported for AA5 subfamily 1 and 2 members, identifying possible functional overlap across the AA5 family.

Abstract
Cell-to-cell adhesion is essential for establishment of multicellularity. In plants, such adhesion is mediated through a middle lamella composed primarily of pectic polysaccharides. The molecular interactions that influence cell-to-cell adhesion are not fully understood. We have used Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) seed coat mucilage as a model system to investigate interactions between cell wall carbohydrates. Using a forward-genetic approach, we have discovered a gene, RUBY PARTICLES IN MUCILAGE (RUBY), encoding a protein that is annotated as a member of the Auxiliary Activity 5 (AA5) family of Carbohydrate-Active Enzymes (Gal/glyoxal oxidases) and is secreted to the apoplast late in the differentiation of seed coat epidermal cells. We show that RUBY is required for the Gal oxidase activity of intact seeds; the oxidation of Gal in side-chains of rhamnogalacturonan-I (RG-I) present in mucilage-modified2 (mum2) mucilage, but not in wild-type mucilage; the retention of branched RG-I in the seed following extrusion; and the enhancement of cell-to-cell adhesion in the seed coat epidermis. These data support the hypothesis that RUBY is a Gal oxidase that strengthens pectin cohesion within the middle lamella, and possibly the mucilage of wild-type seed coat epidermal cells, through oxidation of RG-I Gal side-chains.

Abstract
Myceliophthora thermophyla is a thermophilic industrially relevant fungus that secretes an assortment of hydrolytic and oxidative enzymes for lignocellulose degradation. Among them is glyoxal oxidase (MtGLOx), an extracellular oxidoreductase that oxidizes several aldehydes and α-hydroxy carbonyl substrates coupled to the reduction of O2 to H2O2. This copper metalloprotein belongs to a class of enzymes called radical copper oxidases (CRO) and to the “auxiliary activities” subfamily AA5_1 that is based on the Carbohydrate-Active enZYmes (CAZy) database. Only a few members of this family have been characterized to date. Here, we report the recombinant production, characterization, and structure-function analysis of MtGLOx. Electron Paramagnetic Resonance (EPR) spectroscopy confirmed MtGLOx to be a radical-coupled copper complex and small angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) revealed an extended spatial arrangement of the catalytic and four N-terminal WSC domains. Furthermore, we demonstrate that methylglyoxal and 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF), a fermentation inhibitor, are substrates for the enzyme.

Abstract
To gain insights into the role of the proximal indole ring in the redox-active metal center as seen in galactose oxidase, we prepared the Cu(II)-salen-type complexes having a pendent indol-3-ylmethyl (1), methyl (2) or benzyl (3) group substituted on the ethylenediamine moiety and investigated the structures and redox properties by various physicochemical methods and theoretical calculations. Neutral complexes 1, 2, and 3 showed no significant difference in the UV-Vis-NIR and EPR spectra. One-electron oxidation of 1, 2, and 3 by addition of 1 equiv. of thianthrenyl radical gave [1]SbCl 6 , [2]SbCl 6 , and [3]SbCl 6 , respectively, which could be assigned to relatively localized phenoxyl radical species. The cyclic and differential pulse voltammograms of [1]SbCl 6 showed two redox waves with a large separation between the first and second redox potentials compared with the separations observed for [2]SbCl 6 and [3]SbCl 6 . This suggests that [1]SbCl 6 is more stabilized than [2]SbCl 6 and [3]SbCl 6 . The NIR band of [1]SbCl 6 showed a larger blue shift than that of [2]SbCl 6 and [3]SbCl 6 . The EPR spectrum of [2]SbCl 6 exhibited an intense signal at the g value of 2 due to partial disproportionation to form the EPR active two-electron oxidized complex [2] 2+ , while the EPR intensity of [1]SbCl 6 was much weaker than that of [2]SbCl 6 . These results indicate that the pendent indole moiety stabilizes the Cu(II)-phenoxyl radical in [1]SbCl 6 most probably by stacking with the phenoxyl moiety, which is further supported by DFT calculations.

Abstract
Noncovalent, weak interactions in the second coordination sphere of the copper active site of Pseudoazurin (PAz) from Achromobacter cycloclastes were examined using a series of Met16X variants. In this study, the differences in protein stability due to the changes in the nature of the 16th amino acid (Met, Phe, Val, Ile) were investigated by electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS) and far-UV circular dichroism (CD) as a result of acid denaturation. The percentage of native states (folded holo forms) of Met16Phe variants was estimated to be 75% at pH 2.9 although the wild-type (WT), Met16Val and Met16Ile PAz, became completely unfolded. The high stability under acidic conditions is correlated with the result of the active site being stabilized by the aromatic substitution of the Met16 residue. The π-π interaction in the second coordination sphere makes a significant contribution to the stability of active site and the protein matrix.

Amino acids located in the outer-sphere of the trinuclear copper center in a multicopper oxidase, CueO as the putative electron donor in the four-electron reduction of dioxygen. BIOCHIMICA ET BIOPHYSICA ACTA-PROTEINS AND PROTEOMICS 2017; 1865:997-1003. [PMID: 28473295 DOI: 10.1016/j.bbapap.2017.04.005] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/27/2017] [Revised: 04/26/2017] [Accepted: 04/29/2017] [Indexed: 12/14/2022]
Abstract
The reaction mechanism of multicopper oxidase (MCO) to reduce dioxygen to water has not been fully understood yet in spite of extensive studies including on the intermediate I (peroxide intermediate) and intermediate II (native intermediate with an O-centered structure at the trinuclear copper center (TNC)). We performed the Phe mutations at the four amino acids, Tyr69, Cys138, Trp139, and Tyr496 located in the outer-sphere of TNC in CueO at the aim of studying whether they play a role as the fourth electron donor to dioxygen or not. Spectral properties and enzymatic activities of CueO were sparingly affected or not affected by the mutations at these putative electron donors. Of the targeted four amino acids Trp139 is in a d-π interaction distance with one of T3Cus and drives stepwise formation and release of water molecules by making two T3Cus non-equivalent. However, contribution of a radical species derived from Trp139 has not been observed in the formation and decay processes of the reaction intermediates. The present study strongly suggests that the amino acids located in the outer-sphere of TNC are not utilized as electron donor in the reduction of dioxygen to water by the three-domain MCO, CueO, differing from cytochrome oxidase and SLAC, a two-domain MCO, in which reaction participation of an uncoordinated Tyr residue has been proposed. SUMMARY We performed the Phe mutations at the four amino acids, Tyr69, Cys138, Trp139 and Tyr496 located in the outer-coordination sphere of the trinuclear copper center in a three-domain multicopper oxidase, CueO to ascertain whether they function as an electron donor or not in the four-electron reduction of dioxygen. Characterizations of the mutants and reactions did not suggest participation of the targeted amino acids, indicating that CueO follows a different reaction mechanism from that of a two-domain multicopper oxidase, SLAC, in which reaction participation of an uncoordinated Tyr has been suggested.

Active-site maturation and activity of the copper-radical oxidase GlxA are governed by a tryptophan residue. Biochem J 2017; 474:809-825.

Abstract
GlxA from Streptomyces lividans is a mononuclear copper-radical oxidase and a member of the auxiliary activity family 5 (AA5). Its domain organisation and low sequence homology make it a distinct member of the AA5 family in which the fungal galactose 6-oxidase (Gox) is the best characterised. GlxA is a key cuproenzyme in the copper-dependent morphological development of S. lividans with a function that is linked to the processing of an extracytoplasmic glycan. The catalytic sites in GlxA and Gox contain two distinct one-electron acceptors comprising the copper ion and a 3′-(S-cysteinyl) tyrosine. The latter is formed post-translationally through a covalent bond between a cysteine and a copper-co-ordinating tyrosine ligand and houses a radical. In GlxA and Gox, a second co-ordination sphere tryptophan residue (Trp288 in GlxA) is present, but the orientation of the indole ring differs between the two enzymes, creating a marked difference in the π–π stacking interaction of the benzyl ring with the 3′-(S-cysteinyl) tyrosine. Differences in the spectroscopic and enzymatic activity have been reported between GlxA and Gox with the indole orientation suggested as a reason. Here, we report a series of in vivo and in vitro studies using the W288F and W288A variants of GlxA to assess the role of Trp288 on the morphology, maturation, spectroscopic and enzymatic properties. Our findings point towards a salient role for Trp288 in the kinetics of copper loading and maturation of GlxA, with its presence essential for stabilising the metalloradical site required for coupling catalytic activity and morphological development.

Abstract
Galactose oxidase (GO) is a copper-dependent enzyme that accomplishes 2e- substrate oxidation by pairing a single copper with an unusual cysteinylated tyrosine (Cys-Tyr) redox cofactor. Previous studies have demonstrated that the post-translational biogenesis of Cys-Tyr is copper- and O2-dependent, resulting in a self-processing enzyme system. To investigate the mechanism of cofactor biogenesis in GO, the active-site structure of Cu(I)-loaded GO was determined using X-ray absorption near edge structure (XANES) and extended X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) spectroscopy, and density-functional theory (DFT) calculations were performed on this model. Our results show that the active-site tyrosine lowers the Cu potential to enable the thermodynamically unfavorable 1e- reduction of O2, and the resulting Cu(II)-O2•- is activated toward H atom abstraction from cysteine. The final step of biogenesis is a concerted reaction involving coordinated Tyr ring deprotonation where Cu(II) coordination enables formation of the Cys-Tyr cross-link. These spectroscopic and computational results highlight the role of the Cu(I) in enabling O2 activation by 1e- and the role of the resulting Cu(II) in enabling substrate activation for biogenesis.

Abstract
Alcohol oxidases, including carbohydrate oxidases, have a long history of research that has generated fundamental biological understanding and biotechnological applications. Despite a long history of study, the galactose 6-oxidase/glyoxal oxidase family of mononuclear copper-radical oxidases, Auxiliary Activity Family 5 (AA5), is currently represented by only very few characterized members. Here we report the recombinant production and detailed structure-function analyses of two homologues from the phytopathogenic fungi Colletotrichum graminicola and C. gloeosporioides, CgrAlcOx and CglAlcOx, respectively, to explore the wider biocatalytic potential in AA5. EPR spectroscopy and crystallographic analysis confirm a common active-site structure vis-à-vis the archetypal galactose 6-oxidase from Fusarium graminearum. Strikingly, however, CgrAlcOx and CglAlcOx are essentially incapable of oxidizing galactose and galactosides, but instead efficiently catalyse the oxidation of diverse aliphatic alcohols. The results highlight the significant potential of prospecting the evolutionary diversity of AA5 to reveal novel enzyme specificities, thereby informing both biology and applications.

Abstract
Herein, we report the extracellular expression of carbohydrate active fusion enzymes in Pichia pastoris. Particularly, CBM29-1-2 from Piromyces equi was separately fused to the N- and C-terminus of galactose 6-oxidase (GaO, D-galactose: oxygen 6-oxidoreductase, EC 1.1.13.9, CAZy family AA5) from Fusarium graminearum, generating CBM29-GaO and GaO-CBM29, respectively. P. pastoris was transformed with expression vectors encoding GaO, CBM29-GaO and GaO-CBM29, and the fusion proteins were expressed in both shake-flask and 2L bioreactor systems. Volumetric production yields and specific GaO activity increased when expression was performed in a bioreactor system compared to shake-flask cultivation. This was observed for both CBM29-GaO and GaO-CBM29, and is consistent with previous reports of GaO expression in P. pastoris (Spadiut et al., 2010; Anasontzis et al., 2014) [1], [2]. Fusion of CBM29 to the C-terminal of GaO (GaO-CBM29) resulted in a stable uniform protein at the expected calculated size (107 kDa) when analyzed with SDS-PAGE. By comparison, the expression of the N-terminal fusion protein (CBM29-GaO) was low, and two truncated versions of CBM29-GaO were coexpressed with the full-sized protein. Despite differences in protein yield, the specific GaO activity on galactose was not affected by CBM29 fusion to either the N- or C-terminus of the enzyme. A detailed description of the catalytic and physiochemical properties of CBM29-GaO and GaO-CBM29 is available in the parent publication (Mollerup et al., 2015) [3].

Abstract
BACKGROUND Galactose oxidase (GaO) selectively oxidizes the primary hydroxyl of galactose to a carbonyl, facilitating targeted chemical derivatization of galactose-containing polysaccharides, leading to renewable polymers with tailored physical and chemical properties. Here we investigate the impact of a family 29 glucomannan binding module on the activity and binding of GaO towards various polysaccharides. Specifically, CBM29-1-2 from Piromyces equi was separately linked to the N- and C-termini of GaO. RESULTS Both GaO-CBM29 and CBM29-GaO were successfully expressed in Pichia pastoris, and demonstrated enhanced binding to galactomannan, galactoglucomannan and galactoxyloglucan. The position of the CBM29 fusion affected the enzyme function. Particularly, C-terminal fusion led to greatest increases in galactomannan binding and catalytic efficiency, where relative to wild-type GaO, kcat/Km values increased by 7.5 and 19.8 times on guar galactomannan and locust bean galactomannan, respectively. The fusion of CBM29 also induced oligomerization of GaO-CBM29. MAJOR CONCLUSIONS Similar to impacts of cellulose-binding modules associated with cellulolytic enzymes, increased substrate binding impeded the action of GaO fusions on more concentrated preparations of galactomannan, galactoglucomannan and galactoxyloglucan; this was especially true for GaO-CBM29. Given the N-terminal positioning of the native galactose-binding CBM32 in GaO, the varying impacts of N-terminal versus C-terminal fusion of CBM29-1-2 may reflect competing action of neighboring CBMs. GENERAL SIGNIFICANCE This study thoroughly examines and discusses the effects of CBM fusion to non-lignocellulytic enzymes on soluble polysaccharides. Herein kinetics of GaO on galactose containing polysaccharides is presented for the first time.
