Directed Electron Delivery from a Pb-Free Halide Perovskite to a Co(II) Molecular Catalyst Boosts CO 2 Photoreduction Coupled with Water Oxidation. Angew Chem Int Ed Engl 2024; 63:e202401344.

Abstract
The development of high-performance photocatalytic systems for CO2 reduction is appealing to address energy and environmental issues, while it is challenging to avoid using toxic metals and organic sacrificial reagents. We here immobilize a family of cobalt phthalocyanine catalysts on Pb-free halide perovskite Cs2AgBiBr6 nanosheets with delicate control on the anchors of the cobalt catalysts. Among them, the molecular hybrid photocatalyst assembled by carboxyl anchors achieves the optimal performance with an electron consumption rate of 300±13 μmol g-1 h-1 for visible-light-driven CO2-to-CO conversion coupled with water oxidation to O2, over 8 times of the unmodified Cs2AgBiBr6 (36±8 μmol g-1 h-1), also far surpassing the documented systems (<150 μmol g-1 h-1). Besides the improved intrinsic activity, electrochemical, computational, ex-/in situ X-ray photoelectron and X-ray absorption spectroscopic results indicate that the electrons photogenerated at the Bi atoms of Cs2AgBiBr6 can be directionally transferred to the cobalt catalyst via the carboxyl anchors which strongly bind to the Bi atoms, substantially facilitating the interfacial electron transfer kinetics and thereby the photocatalysis.

Functional Model of Compound II of Cytochrome P450: Spectroscopic Characterization and Reactivity Studies of a Fe IV-OH Complex. JACS AU 2024; 4:1142-1154. [PMID: 38559734 PMCID: PMC10976569 DOI: 10.1021/jacsau.3c00844] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/29/2023] [Revised: 02/12/2024] [Accepted: 02/26/2024] [Indexed: 04/04/2024]
Abstract
Herein, we show that the reaction of a mononuclear FeIII(OH) complex (1) with N-tosyliminobenzyliodinane (PhINTs) resulted in the formation of a FeIV(OH) species (3). The obtained complex 3 was characterized by an array of spectroscopic techniques and represented a rare example of a synthetic FeIV(OH) complex. The reaction of 1 with the one-electron oxidizing agent was reported to form a ligand-oxidized FeIII(OH) complex (2). 3 revealed a one-electron reduction potential of -0.22 V vs Fc+/Fc at -15 °C, which was 150 mV anodically shifted than 2 (Ered = -0.37 V vs Fc+/Fc at -15 °C), inferring 3 to be more oxidizing than 2. 3 reacted spontaneously with (4-OMe-C6H4)3C• to form (4-OMe-C6H4)3C(OH) through rebound of the OH group and displayed significantly faster reactivity than 2. Further, activation of the hydrocarbon C-H and the phenolic O-H bond by 2 and 3 was compared and showed that 3 is a stronger oxidant than 2. A detailed kinetic study established the occurrence of a concerted proton-electron transfer/hydrogen atom transfer reaction of 3. Studying one-electron reduction of 2 and 3 using decamethylferrocene (Fc*) revealed a higher ket of 3 than 2. The study established that the primary coordination sphere around Fe and the redox state of the metal center is very crucial in controlling the reactivity of high-valent Fe-OH complexes. Further, a FeIII(OMe) complex (4) was synthesized and thoroughly characterized, including X-ray structure determination. The reaction of 4 with PhINTs resulted in the formation of a FeIV(OMe) species (5), revealing the presence of two FeIV species with isomer shifts of -0.11 mm/s and = 0.17 mm/s in the Mössbauer spectrum and showed FeIV/FeIII potential at -0.36 V vs Fc+/Fc couple in acetonitrile at -15 °C. The reactivity studies of 5 were investigated and compared with the FeIV(OH) complex (3).

Abstract
Nanosecond time-resolved X-ray (tr-XAS) and optical transient absorption spectroscopy (OTA) are applied to study 3 multimolecular photocatalytic systems with [Ru(bpy)3 ]2+ photoabsorber, ascorbic acid electron donor and Co catalysts with methylene (1), hydroxomethylene (2) and methyl (3) amine substituents in pure water. OTA and tr-XAS of 1 and 2 show that the favored catalytic pathway involves reductive quenching of the excited photosensitizer and electron transfer to the catalyst to form a CoII square pyramidal intermediate with a bonded aqua molecule followed by a CoI square planar derivative that decays within ≈8 μs. By contrast, a CoI square pyramidal intermediate with a longer decay lifetime of ≈35 μs is formed from an analogous CoII geometry for 3 in H2 O. These results highlight the protonation of CoI to form the elusive hydride species to be the rate limiting step and show that the catalytic rate can be enhanced through hydrogen containing pendant amines that act as H-H bond formation proton relays.

Abstract
Molecular cobalt(III) complexes of bis-amidate-bis-alkoxide ligands, (Me4N)[CoIII(L1)] (1) and (Me4N)[CoIII(L2)] (2), are synthesized and assessed through a range of characterization techniques. Electrocatalytic water oxidation activity of the Co complexes in a 0.1 M phosphate buffer solution revealed a ligand-centered 2e-/1H+ transfer event at 0.99 V followed by catalytic water oxidation (WO) at an onset overpotential of 450 mV. By contrast, 2 reveals a ligand-based oxidation event at 0.9 V and a WO onset overpotential of 430 mV. Constant potential electrolysis study and rinse test experiments confirm the homogeneous nature of the Co complexes during WO. The mechanistic investigation further shows a pH-dependent change in the reaction pathway. On the one hand, below pH 7.5, two consecutive ligand-based oxidation events result in the formation of a CoIII(L2-)(OH) species, which, followed by a proton-coupled electron transfer reaction, generates a CoIV(L2-)(O) species that undergoes water nucleophilic attack to form the O-O bond. On the other hand, at higher pH, two ligand-based oxidation processes merge together and result in the formation of a CoIII(L2-)(OH) complex, which reacts with OH- to yield the O-O bond. The ligand-coordinated reaction intermediates involved in the WO reaction are thoroughly studied through an array of spectroscopic techniques, including UV-vis absorption spectroscopy, electron paramagnetic resonance, and X-ray absorption spectroscopy. A mononuclear CoIII(OH) complex supported by the one-electron oxidized ligand, [CoIII(L3-)(OH)]-, a formal CoIV(OH) complex, has been characterized, and the compound was shown to participate in the hydroxide rebound reaction, which is a functional mimic of Compound II of Cytochrome P450.

Abstract
Phenylalanine hydroxylase (PheH) is a pterin-dependent, mononuclear nonheme iron(II) oxygenase that uses the oxidative power of O2 to hydroxylate phenylalanine to form tyrosine. PheH is a member of a superfamily of O2-activating enzymes that utilizes a common metal binding motif: the 2-His-1-carboxylate facial triad. Like most members of this superfamily, binding of substrates to PheH results in a reorganization of its active site to allow O2 activation. Exploring the energetics of each step before O2 activation can provide mechanistic insight into the initial steps that support the highly specific O2 activation pathway carried out by this metalloenzyme. Here the thermal stability of PheH and its substrate complexes were investigated under an anaerobic environment by using differential scanning calorimetry. In context with known binding constants for PheH, a thermodynamic cycle associated with iron(II), tetrahydrobiopterin (BH4), and phenylalanine binding to the active site was generated, showing a distinctive cooperativity between the binding of BH4 and Phe. The addition of phenylalanine and BH4 to PheH·Fe increased the stability of this enzyme (ΔTm of 8.5 (±0.7) °C with an associated δΔH of 43.0 (±2.9) kcal/mol). The thermodynamic data presented here gives insight into the complicated interactions between metal center, cofactor, and substrate, and how this interplay sets the stage for highly specific, oxidative C-H activation in this enzyme.

Abstract
Time-resolved X-ray (tr-XAS) and optical transient absorption (OTA) spectroscopy in the picosecond time scale coupled with Density Functional theory (DFT) and X-ray absorption near-edge structure (XANES) calculations are applied to study three homoleptic Cu(i) dimeric chromophores with ethyl and longer propyl spacers, denoted as [Cu2(mphenet)2]Cl2 (C1), [Cu2(mphenet)2](ClO4)2 (C2) and [Cu2(mphenpr)2](ClO4)2 (C3) (where mphenet = 1,2-bis(9-methyl-1,10-phenanthrolin-2-yl)ethane and mphenpr = 1,3-bis(9-methyl-1,10-phenanthrolin-2-yl)propane). Tr-XAS analysis after light illumination at ∼ 100 ps illustrate the formation of a flattened triplet excited state in all 3 complexes. Optical transient absorption (OTA) analysis for C1 monitored in water and C2 and C3 measured in acetonitrile reveals distinct excited-state lifetimes of 169 ps, 670 ps and 1600 ps respectively. These differences are associated to changes in the solvent (comparing C1 and C2) and the flexibility of the ligand to adapt after Cu flattening upon excitation (C2 and C3). Our results are important for the improved structural dynamics of these types of Cu-based dimeric compounds, and can guide the integration of these chromophores into more complex solar energy conversion schemes.

Abstract
A terminal FeIIIOH complex, [FeIII(L)(OH)]2− (1), has been synthesized and structurally characterized (H4L = 1,2-bis(2-hydroxy-2-methylpropanamido)benzene). The oxidation reaction of 1 with one equiv. of tris(4-bromophenyl)ammoniumyl hexachloroantimonate (TBAH) or ceric ammonium nitrate (CAN) in acetonitrile at −45 °C results in the formation of a FeIIIOH ligand radical complex, [FeIII(L˙)(OH)]− (2), which is hereby characterized by UV-visible, 1H nuclear magnetic resonance, electron paramagnetic resonance, and X-ray absorption spectroscopy techniques. The reaction of 2 with a triphenylcarbon radical further gives triphenylmethanol and mimics the so-called oxygen rebound step of Cpd II of cytochrome P450. Furthermore, the reaction of 2 was explored with different 4-substituted-2,6-di-tert-butylphenols. Based on kinetic analysis, a hydrogen atom transfer (HAT) mechanism has been established. A pKa value of 19.3 and a BDFE value of 78.2 kcal/mol have been estimated for complex 2. One-electron oxidation of an FeIII–OH complex (1) results in the formation of a FeIII–OH ligand radical complex (2). Its reaction with (C6H5)3C˙ results in the formation of (C6H5)3COH, which is a functional mimic of compound II of cytochrome P450.![]()

Abstract
Time-resolved X-ray (Tr-XAS) and optical transient absorption (OTA) spectroscopy on the pico-microsecond timescale coupled with density functional theory calculations are applied to study the light-induced spin crossover processes of a Fe-based macrocyclic complex in solution. Tr-XAS analysis after light illumination shows the formation of a seven-coordinated high-spin quintet metastable state, which relaxes to a six-coordinated high-spin configuration before decaying to the ground state. Kinetic analysis of the macrocyclic complex reveals an unprecedented long-lived decay lifetime of approximately 42.6 μs. Comparative studies with a non-macrocyclic counterpart illustrate a significantly shortened approximately 568-fold decay lifetime of about 75 ns, and highlight the importance of the ligand arrangement in stabilizing the reactivity of the excited state. Lastly, OTA analysis shows the seven-coordinated high-spin state to be formed within approximately 6.2 ps. These findings provide a complete understanding of the spin crossover reaction and relaxation pathways of the macrocyclic complex, and reveal the importance of a flexible coordination environment for their rational design.

Abstract
We report the use of time-resolved X-ray absorption spectroscopy in the ns-μs time scale to track the light induced two electron transfer processes in a multi-component photocatalytic system, consisting of [Ru(bpy)3]2+/ a diiron(iii,iii) model/triethylamine. EXAFS analysis with DFT calculations confirms the structural configurations of the diiron(iii,iii) and reduced diiron(ii,ii) states.

Abstract
X-ray transient absorption spectroscopy (X-TAS) has been used to study the light-induced hydrogen evolution reaction catalyzed by a tetradentate macrocyclic cobalt complex with the formula [LCo(III)Cl2](+) (L = macrocyclic ligand), [Ru(bpy)3](2+) photosensitizer, and an equimolar mixture of sodium ascorbate/ascorbic acid electron donor in pure water. X-ray absorption near edge structure (XANES) and extended X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) analysis of a binary mixture of the octahedral Co(III) precatalyst and [Ru(bpy)3](2+) after illumination revealed in situ formation of a Co(II) intermediate with significantly distorted geometry and electron-transfer kinetics of 51 ns. On the other hand, X-TAS experiments of the complete photocatalytic system in the presence of the electron donor showed the formation of a square planar Co(I) intermediate species within a few nanoseconds, followed by its decay in the microsecond time scale. The Co(I) structural assignment is supported by calculations based on density functional theory (DFT). At longer reaction times, we observe the formation of the initial Co(III) species concomitant to the decay of Co(I), thus closing the catalytic cycle. The experimental X-ray absorption spectra of the molecular species formed along the catalytic cycle are modeled using a combination of molecular orbital DFT calculations (DFT-MO) and finite difference method (FDM). These findings allowed us to assign the full mechanistic pathway, followed by the catalyst as well as to determine the rate-limiting step of the process, which consists in the protonation of the Co(I) species. This study provides a complete kinetics scheme for the hydrogen evolution reaction by a cobalt catalyst, revealing unique information for the development of better catalysts for the reductive side of hydrogen fuel cells.

Abstract
Mammalian phenylalanine hydroxylase (PheH) is an allosteric enzyme that catalyzes the first step in the catabolism of the amino acid phenylalanine. Following allosteric activation by high phenylalanine levels, the enzyme catalyzes the pterin-dependent conversion of phenylalanine to tyrosine. Inability to control elevated phenylalanine levels in the blood leads to increased risk of mental disabilities commonly associated with the inherited metabolic disorder, phenylketonuria. Although extensively studied, structural changes associated with allosteric activation in mammalian PheH have been elusive. Here, we examine the complex allosteric mechanisms of rat PheH using X-ray crystallography, isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC), and small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS). We describe crystal structures of the preactivated state of the PheH tetramer depicting the regulatory domains docked against the catalytic domains and preventing substrate binding. Using SAXS, we further describe the domain movements involved in allosteric activation of PheH in solution and present the first demonstration of chromatography-coupled SAXS with Evolving Factor Analysis (EFA), a powerful method for separating scattering components in a model-independent way. Together, these results support a model for allostery in PheH in which phenylalanine stabilizes the dimerization of the regulatory domains and exposes the active site for substrate binding and other structural changes needed for activity.

Abstract
Herein, Ca K-edge X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) is developed as a means to characterize the local environment of calcium centers. The spectra for six, seven, and eight coordinate inorganic and molecular calcium complexes were analyzed and determined to be primarily influenced by the coordination environment and site symmetry at the calcium center. The experimental results are closely correlated to time-dependent density functional theory (TD-DFT) calculations of the XAS spectra. The applicability of this methodology to complex systems was investigated using structural mimics of the oxygen-evolving complex (OEC) of PSII. It was found that Ca K-edge XAS is a sensitive probe for structural changes occurring in the cubane heterometallic cluster due to Mn oxidation. Future applications to the OEC are discussed.

Abstract
![]()
Nonheme Fe(II)/αKG-dependent
oxygenases catalyze diverse
reactions, typically inserting an O atom from O2 into a
C–H bond. Although the key to their catalytic cycle is the
fact that binding and positioning of primary substrate precede O2 activation, the means by which substrate binding stimulates
turnover is not well understood. Factor Inhibiting HIF (FIH) is a
Fe(II)/αKG-dependent oxygenase that acts as a cellular oxygen
sensor in humans by hydroxylating the target residue Asn803, found in the C-terminal transactivation domain (CTAD) of hypoxia
inducible factor-1. FIH-Gln239 makes two hydrogen bonds
with CTAD-Asn803, positioning this target residue over
the Fe(II). We hypothesized the positioning of the side chain of CTAD-Asn803 by FIH-Gln239 was critical for stimulating O2 activation and subsequent substrate hydroxylation. The steady-state
characterization of five FIH-Gln239 variants (Ala, Asn,
Glu, His, and Leu) tested the role of hydrogen bonding potential and
sterics near the target residue. Each variant exhibited a 20–1200-fold
decrease in kcat and kcat/KM(CTAD), but no change
in KM(CTAD), indicating that the step
after CTAD binding was affected by point mutation. Uncoupled O2 activation was prominent in these variants, as shown by large
coupling ratios (C = [succinate]/[CTAD-OH] = 3–5)
for each of the FIH-Gln239 → X variants. The coupling
ratios decreased in D2O, indicating an isotope-sensitive
inactivation for variants, not observed in the wild type. The data
presented indicate that the proper positioning of CTAD-Asn803 by FIH-Gln239 is necessary to suppress uncoupled turnover
and to support substrate hydroxylation, suggesting substrate positioning
may be crucial for directing O2 reactivity within the broader
class of αKG hydroxylases.

Abstract
The liver enzyme phenylalanine hydroxylase is responsible for conversion of excess phenylalanine in the diet to tyrosine. Phenylalanine hydroxylase is activated by phenylalanine; this activation is inhibited by the physiological reducing substrate tetrahydrobiopterin. Phosphorylation of Ser16 lowers the concentration of phenylalanine for activation. This review discusses the present understanding of the molecular details of the allosteric regulation of the enzyme.

Abstract
Phenylalanine hydroxylase is a mononuclear non-heme iron protein that uses tetrahydropterin as the source of the two electrons needed to activate dioxygen for the hydroxylation of phenylalanine to tyrosine. Rapid-quench methods have been used to analyze the mechanism of a bacterial phenylalanine hydroxylase from Chromobacterium violaceum. Mössbauer spectra of samples prepared by freeze-quenching the reaction of the enzyme-(57)Fe(II)-phenylalanine-6-methyltetrahydropterin complex with O(2) reveal the accumulation of an intermediate at short reaction times (20-100 ms). The Mössbauer parameters of the intermediate (δ = 0.28 mm/s, and |ΔE(Q)| = 1.26 mm/s) suggest that it is a high-spin Fe(IV) complex similar to those that have previously been detected in the reactions of other mononuclear Fe(II) hydroxylases, including a tetrahydropterin-dependent tyrosine hydroxylase. Analysis of the tyrosine content of acid-quenched samples from similar reactions establishes that the Fe(IV) intermediate is kinetically competent to be the hydroxylating intermediate. Similar chemical-quench analysis of a reaction allowed to proceed for several turnovers shows a burst of tyrosine formation, consistent with rate-limiting product release. All three data sets can be modeled with a mechanism in which the enzyme-substrate complex reacts with oxygen to form an Fe(IV)═O intermediate with a rate constant of 19 mM(-1) s(-1), the Fe(IV)═O intermediate hydroxylates phenylalanine with a rate constant of 42 s(-1), and rate-limiting product release occurs with a rate constant of 6 s(-1) at 5 °C.

Abstract
Tryptophan hydroxylase (TrpH) uses a non-heme mononuclear iron center to catalyze the tetrahydropterin-dependent hydroxylation of tryptophan to 5-hydroxytryptophan. The reactions of the TrpH.Fe(II), TrpH.Fe(II).tryptophan, TrpH.Fe(II).6MePH(4).tryptophan, and TrpH.Fe(II).6MePH(4).phenylalanine complexes with O(2) were monitored by stopped-flow absorbance spectroscopy and rapid quench methods. The second-order rate constant for the oxidation of TrpH.Fe(II) has a value of 104 M(-1) s(-1) irrespective of the presence of tryptophan. Stopped-flow absorbance analyses of the reaction of the TrpH.Fe(II).6MePH(4).tryptophan complex with oxygen are consistent with the initial step being reversible binding of oxygen, followed by the formation with a rate constant of 65 s(-1) of an intermediate I that has maximal absorbance at 420 nm. The rate constant for decay of I, 4.4 s(-1), matches that for formation of the 4a-hydroxypterin product monitored at 248 nm. Chemical-quench analyses show that 5-hydroxytryptophan forms with a rate constant of 1.3 s(-1) and that overall turnover is limited by a subsequent slow step, presumably product release, with a rate constant of 0.2 s(-1). All of the data with tryptophan as substrate can be described by a five-step mechanism. In contrast, with phenylalanine as substrate, the reaction can be described by three steps: a second-order reaction with oxygen to form I, decay of I as tyrosine forms, and slow product release.

Abstract
Tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) is a pterin-dependent nonheme iron enzyme that catalyzes the hydroxylation of L-tyr to L-DOPA in the rate-limiting step of catecholamine neurotransmitter biosynthesis. We have previously shown that the Fe(II) site in phenylalanine hydroxylase (PAH) converts from six-coordinate (6C) to five-coordinate (5C) only when both substrate + cofactor are bound. However, steady-state kinetics indicate that TH has a different co-substrate binding sequence (pterin + O(2) + L-tyr) than PAH (L-phe + pterin + O(2)). Using X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS), and variable-temperature-variable-field magnetic circular dichroism (VTVH MCD) spectroscopy, we have investigated the geometric and electronic structure of the wild-type (WT) TH and two mutants, S395A and E332A, and their interactions with substrates. All three forms of TH undergo 6C --> 5C conversion with tyr + pterin, consistent with the general mechanistic strategy established for O(2)-activating nonheme iron enzymes. We have also applied single-turnover kinetic experiments with spectroscopic data to evaluate the mechanism of the O(2) and pterin reactions in TH. When the Fe(II) site is 6C, the two-electron reduction of O(2) to peroxide by Fe(II) and pterin is favored over individual one-electron reactions, demonstrating that both a 5C Fe(II) and a redox-active pterin are required for coupled O(2) reaction. When the Fe(II) is 5C, the O(2) reaction is accelerated by at least 2 orders of magnitude. Comparison of the kinetics of WT TH, which produces Fe(IV)=O + 4a-OH-pterin, and E332A TH, which does not, shows that the E332 residue plays an important role in directing the protonation of the bridged Fe(II)-OO-pterin intermediate in WT to productively form Fe(IV)=O, which is responsible for hydroxylating L-tyr to L-DOPA.

Abstract
The role of a polypeptide loop in tyrosine hydroxylase (TyrH) whose homolog in phenylalanine hydroxylase (PheH) takes on a different conformation when substrates are bound has been studied using site-directed mutagenesis. The loop spans positions 177 to 191; alanine was introduced into those positions, introducing one alanine substitution per TyrH variant. Mutagenesis of residues in the center of the loop resulted in alterations in the KM values for substrates, the Vmax value for dihydroxyphenylalanine (DOPA) synthesis, and the coupling of tetrahydropterin oxidation to tyrosine hydroxylation. The variant with the most altered KM value for 6-methyltetrahydropterin was TyrH F184A. The variants with the most affected K(tyr) values were those with substitutions in the center of the loop, TyrH K183A, F184A, D185A, P186A and D187A. These five variants also had the most reduced Vmax values for DOPA synthesis. Alanine substitution in positions 182-186 resulted in lowered ratios of tyrosine hydroxylation to tetrahydropterin oxidation. TyrH F184Y and PheH Y138F, variants with the residue at the center of the loop substituted with the residue present at the homologous position in the other hydroxylase, were also studied. The V/K(tyr) to V/K(phe) ratios for these variants were altered significantly, but the results did not suggest that F184 of TyrH or Y138 of PheH plays a dominant role in determining amino acid substrate specificity.

Abstract
A large group of mononuclear non-heme iron enzymes exist which activate dioxygen to catalyze key biochemical transformations, including many of medical, pharmaceutical and environmental significance. These enzymes utilize high-spin Fe(II) active sites and additional reducing equivalents from cofactors or substrates to react with O2 to yield iron-oxygen intermediates competent to transform substrate to product. While Fe(II) sites have been difficult to study due to the lack of dominant spectroscopic features, a spectroscopic methodology has been developed which allows the elucidation of the geometric and electronic structures of these active sites and provides molecular level insight into the mechanisms of catalysis. This review provides a summary of this methodology with emphasis on its application to the determination of important active site structure-function correlations in mononuclear non-heme iron enzymes. These studies provide key insight into the mechanisms of oxygen activation, active site features that contribute to differences in reactivity and, combined with theoretical calculations and model studies, the nature of oxygen intermediates active in catalysis.

Abstract
The chemical pathways leading to the hydroxylated aromatic amino acids in phenylalanine and tryptophan hydroxylases have been investigated by means of hybrid density functional theory. In the catalytic core of these non-heme iron enzymes, dioxygen reacts with the pterin cofactor and is likely to be activated by forming an iron(IV)=O complex. The capability of this species to act as a hydroxylating intermediate has been explored. Depending on the protonation state of the ligands of the metal, two different mechanisms are found to be energetically possible for the hydroxylation of phenylalanine and tryptophan by the high-valent iron-oxo species. With a hydroxo ligand the two-electron oxidation of the aromatic ring passes through a radical, while an arenium cation is involved when a water replaces the hydroxide. After the attack of the activated oxygen on the substrate, it is also found that a 1,2-hydride shift (known as an NIH shift) generates a keto intermediate, which can decay to the true product through an intermolecular keto-enol tautomerization. The benzylic hydroxylation of 4-methylphenylalanine by the Fe(IV)=O species has also been investigated according to the rebound mechanism. The computed energetics lead to the conclusion that Fe(IV)=O is capable not only of aromatic hydroxylation, but also of benzylic hydroxylation.

Abstract
Phenylalanine hydroxylase catalyzes the stereospecific hydroxylation of L-phenylalanine, the committed step in the degradation of this amino acid. We have solved the crystal structure of the ternary complex (hPheOH-Fe(II).BH(4).THA) of the catalytically active Fe(II) form of a truncated form (DeltaN1-102/DeltaC428-452) of human phenylalanine hydroxylase (hPheOH), using the catalytically active reduced cofactor 6(R)-L-erythro-5,6,7,8-tetrahydrobiopterin (BH(4)) and 3-(2-thienyl)-L-alanine (THA) as a substrate analogue. The analogue is bound in the second coordination sphere of the catalytic iron atom with the thiophene ring stacking against the imidazole group of His285 (average interplanar distance 3.8A) and with a network of hydrogen bonds and hydrophobic contacts. Binding of the analogue to the binary complex hPheOH-Fe(II).BH(4) triggers structural changes throughout the entire molecule, which adopts a slightly more compact structure. The largest change occurs in the loop region comprising residues 131-155, where the maximum r.m.s. displacement (9.6A) is at Tyr138. This loop is refolded, bringing the hydroxyl oxygen atom of Tyr138 18.5A closer to the iron atom and into the active site. The iron geometry is highly distorted square pyramidal, and Glu330 adopts a conformation different from that observed in the hPheOH-Fe(II).BH(4) structure, with bidentate iron coordination. BH(4) binds in the second coordination sphere of the catalytic iron atom, and is displaced 2.6A in the direction of Glu286 and the iron atom, relative to the hPheOH-Fe(II).BH(4) structure, thus changing its hydrogen bonding network. The active-site structure of the ternary complex gives new insight into the substrate specificity of the enzyme, notably the low affinity for L-tyrosine. Furthermore, the structure has implications both for the catalytic mechanism and the molecular basis for the activation of the full-length tetrameric enzyme by its substrate. The large conformational change, moving Tyr138 from a surface position into the active site, may reflect a possible functional role for this residue.

Abstract
The crystal structures of the catalytic domain (DeltaN1-102/DeltaC428-452) of human phenylalanine hydroxylase (hPheOH) in its catalytically competent Fe(II) form and binary complex with the reduced pterin cofactor 6(R)-L-erythro-5,6,7,8-tetrahydrobiopterin (BH4) have been determined to 1.7 and 1.5 A, respectively. When compared with the structures reported for various catalytically inactive Fe(III) forms, several important differences have been observed, notably at the active site. Thus, the non-liganded hPheOH-Fe(II) structure revealed well defined electron density for only one of the three water molecules reported to be coordinated to the iron in the high-spin Fe(III) form, as well as poor electron density for parts of the coordinating side-chain of Glu330. The reduced cofactor (BH4), which adopts the expected half-semi chair conformation, is bound in the second coordination sphere of the catalytic iron with a C4a-iron distance of 5.9 A. BH4 binds at the same site as L-erythro-7,8-dihydrobiopterin (BH2) in the binary hPheOH-Fe(III)-BH2 complex forming an aromatic pi-stacking interaction with Phe254 and a network of hydrogen bonds. However, compared to that structure the pterin ring is displaced about 0.5 A and rotated about 10 degrees, and the torsion angle between the hydroxyl groups of the cofactor in the dihydroxypropyl side-chain has changed by approximately 120 degrees enabling O2' to make a strong hydrogen bond (2.4 A) with the side-chain oxygen of Ser251. Carbon atoms in the dihydroxypropyl side-chain make several hydrophobic contacts with the protein. The iron is six-coordinated in the binary complex, but the overall coordination geometry is slightly different from that of the Fe(III) form. Most important was the finding that the binding of BH4 causes the Glu330 ligand to change its coordination to the iron when comparing with non-liganded hPheOH-Fe(III) and the binary hPheOH-Fe(III)-BH2 complex.

Abstract
The enzymes phenylalanine hydroxylase, tyrosine hydroxylase, and tryptophan hydroxylase constitute the family of pterin-dependent aromatic amino acid hydroxylases. Each enzyme catalyzes the hydroxylation of the aromatic side chain of its respective amino acid substrate using molecular oxygen and a tetrahydropterin as substrates. Recent advances have provided insights into the structures, mechanisms, and regulation of these enzymes. The eukaryotic enzymes are homotetramers comprised of homologous catalytic domains and discrete regulatory domains. The ligands to the active site iron atom as well as residues involved in substrate binding have been identified from a combination of structural studies and site-directed mutagenesis. Mechanistic studies with nonphysiological and isotopically substituted substrates have provided details of the mechanism of hydroxylation. While the complex regulatory properties of phenylalanine and tyrosine hydroxylase are still not fully understood, effects of regulation on key kinetic parameters have been identified. Phenylalanine hydroxylase is regulated by an interaction between phosphorylation and allosteric regulation by substrates. Tyrosine hydroxylase is regulated by phosphorylation and feedback inhibition by catecholamines.

Abstract
The magnetic circular dichroism (MCD) properties of a spin-allowed transition from an orbitally nondegenerate ground state manifold A to an orbitally nondegenerate excited state manifold J in the presence of spin-orbit coupling (SOC) are derived for any S >/= (1)/(2). Three physically distinct mechanisms are identified that lead to MCD intensity and depend on SOC between excited states which leads to a sum rule and SOC between the ground state and other excited states that leads to deviations from the sum rule. The model is valid for any symmetry of the magnetic coupling tensors and arbitrary transition polarizations. The S = (1)/(2) case is analytically solved, and the determination of linear polarizations from MCD saturation magnetization data is discussed. For all mechanisms the MCD intensity is proportional to the spin-expectation values of the ground state sublevels which are conveniently generated from a spin-Hamiltonian (SH). For Kramers systems with large zero-field splittings (ZFSs) this allows the contribution from each Kramers doublet to the total MCD intensity to be related through their effective g-values, therefore significantly reducing the number of parameters required to analyze experimental data. The behavior of high-spin systems is discussed in the limits of weak, intermediate, and strong ZFS relative to the Zeeman energy. The model remains valid in the important case of intermediate ZFS where the ground state sublevels may cross as a function of applied magnetic field and there are significant off-axis contributions to the MCD intensity due to a change of the electron spin quantization axis. The model permits calculation of MCD C-term signs from molecular wave functions, and explicit expressions are derived in terms of MOs for S = (1)/(2) and S = (5)/(2). Two examples from the literature are analyzed to demonstrate how the C-term signs can be evaluated by a graphical method that gives insight into their physical origin.

Abstract
The high-spin (S = 5/2) Fe(III) ion at the active site of recombinant human phenylalanine hydroxylase (PAH) has a paramagnetic effect on the longitudinal relaxation rate of water protons. This effect is proportional to the concentration of enzyme, with a paramagnetic molar-relaxivity value at 400 MHz and 25 degrees C of 1. 3 (+/- 0.03) x 10(3) s-1 M-1. The value of the Arrhenius activation energy (Ea) for the relaxation rate was -14.4 +/- 1.1 kJ/mol for the resting enzyme, indicating a fast exchange of water protons in the paramagnetic environment. The frequency dependence of the relaxation rate also supported this hypothesis. Thus, the recombinant human PAH appears to have a more solvent-accessible catalytic iron than the rat enzyme, in which the water coordinated to the metal is slowly exchanging with the solvent. These findings may be related to the level of basal activity before activation for these enzymes, which is higher for human than for rat PAH. In the presence of saturating (5 mM) concentrations of the substrate L-Phe, the paramagnetic molar relaxivity for human PAH decreased to 0.72 (+/- 0.05) x 10(3) s-1 M-1 with no significant change in the Ea. Effective correlation times (tauC) of 1.8 (+/- 0.3) x 10(-10) and 1.25 (+/- 0.2) x 10(-10) s-1 were calculated for the enzyme and the enzyme-substrate complex, respectively, and most likely represent the electron spin relaxation rate (tauS) for Fe(III) in each case. Together with the paramagnetic molar-relaxivity values, the tauC values were used to estimate Fe(III)-water distances. It seems that at least one of the three water molecules coordinated to the iron in the resting rat and human enzymes is displaced from coordination on the binding of L-Phe at the active site.

Abstract
A truncated version of human phenylalanine hydroxylase which contains the carboxy terminal 336 amino acids was produced in Escherichia coli. It was purified by ammonium sulfate precipitation, Q-Sepharose chromatography, and hydroxyapatite chromatography. The K(m) values of the truncated enzyme for tetrahydropterin substrates are not different from those of the full-length enzyme, nor are the Vmax values. The KM value for phenylalanine is 2-fold lower for the truncate than for the full-length enzyme. The metal content of the enzyme is 0.27 mol Fe per mole enzyme subunit, and it is activated 2.3-fold by addition of ferrous ion to assays; it is not activated by addition of copper. The truncated enzyme shows no lag in activity when an assay is started with phenylalanine, while the full-length enzyme shows a marked lag.
