Abstract
Spermidine is one of the several biogenic amines, produced during the microbial decarboxylation of proteins. Individual biogenic amines in the formed mixtures are frequently analyzed with oxygen sensor based biosensors, as their content serves as a good biomarker for the determination of food quality. In these biosensors, diamine oxidase from pea seedlings (PSAO), catalyzing the oxidation of various biogenic amines by dissolved oxygen is commonly used for the bio-recognition of amines. However, in the presence of spermidine and/or its metabolite 1,3-diaminopropane, the activity of PSAO and the sensitivity of PSAO-based biosensors decrease due to inhibition. The inhibition constant of soluble spermidine, acting as an inhibiting substrate toward PSAO, was found to be (40±15) mM in freshly prepared solution and (0.28±0.05) mM in solution, incubated 30 days at room temperature. The inhibition constant of 1,3-diaminopropane, acting as a competitive inhibitor, was (0.43±0.12) mM as determined through the oxidation reaction of cadaverine. The metabolic half-life of soluble spermidine was 7 days at room temperature and 186 days at 4 °C. The kinetic measurements were carried out with an oxygen sensor; the composition of the solution of degraded spermidine was analyzed with MS.

Abstract
The structures of copper amine oxidases from various sources show good similarity, suggesting similar catalytic mechanisms for all members of this enzyme family. However, the optimal substrates for each member differ, depending on the source of the enzyme and its location. The structural factors underlying substrate selectivity still remain to be discovered. With this in view, we examined the kinetic behaviour of pea seedling amine oxidase with cadaverine and hexylamine, the first bearing two, and the second only one, positively charged amino group. The dependence of K(m) and catalytic constant (k(c)) values on pH, ionic strength and temperature indicates that binding of the monoamine is driven by hydrophobic interactions. Instead, binding of the diamine is strongly facilitated by electrostatic factors, controlled by polar side-chains and two titratable residues present in the active site. The position of the docked substrate is also essential for the participation of titratable amino acid residues in the following catalytic steps. A new mechanistic model explaining the substrate-dependent kinetics of the reaction is discussed.

Abstract
In the present DFT study, the catalytic mechanism of H2O2 formation in the oxidative half-reaction of NiSOD, E-Ni(II) + O2- + 2H+ --> E-Ni(III) + H2O2, has been investigated. The main objective of this study is to investigate the source of two protons required in this half-reaction. The proposed mechanism consists of two steps: superoxide coordination and H2O2 formation. The effect of protonation of Cys6 and the proton donating roles of side chains (S) and backbones (B) of His1, Asp3, Cys6, and Tyr9 residues in these two steps have been studied in detail. For protonated Cys6, superoxide binding generates a Ni(III)-O2H species in a process that is exothermic by 17.4 kcal/mol (in protein environment using the continuum model). From the Ni(III)-O2H species, H2O2 formation occurs through a proton donation by His1 via Tyr9, which relative to the resting position of the enzyme is exothermic by 4.9 kcal/mol. In this pathway, a proton donating role of His1 residue is proposed. However, for unprotonated Cys6, a Ni(II)-O2- species is generated in a process that is exothermic by 11.3 kcal/mol. From the Ni(II)-O2- species, the only feasible pathway for H2O2 formation is through donation of protons by the Tyr9(S)-Asp3(S) pair. The results discussed in this study elucidate the role of the active site residues in the catalytic cycle and provide intricate details of the complex functioning of this enzyme.

Abstract
The mechanism of a unique fumarate reductase is explored using the hybrid density functional B3LYP method. The calculations show a two-step mechanism, initiated with a hydride transfer from FAD (flavin adenine dinucleotide) to fumarate, followed by a proton shift from Arg402. The rate-limiting process is assigned to the hydride transfer, and the energetics are consistent with experimental data. It is shown that the enzyme is essential to correctly position the substrate in the active site, stabilizing its extremely anionic character.

Abstract
Various computational approaches, using molecular mechanics (Amber), semiempirical (AM1), density functional (B3LYP), and various ONIOM methods, have been comparatively investigated for the structure of Escherichia coli NifS CsdB protein. The structure of the entire monomer containing 407 amino acid residues and 579 surrounding water molecules has been optimized. The full geometry optimization in the "active site-only" approach (including only active site atoms) has been found to give the largest root-mean-square (RMS) deviation from the X-ray structure; a much better agreement has been achieved by keeping the atoms leading to the backbones of some amino acids frozen in their positions in the X-ray structure. The best agreement has been attained by including the surrounding protein in the calculations using the two-layer ONIOM (B3LYP:Amber) approach. The results presented in this study conclusively demonstrate the importance of the protein/active-site interaction on the active-site structure of the enzyme. The present theoretical study represents the largest system studied at the ONIOM level to date, containing 7992 atoms, including 84 atoms in the QM region and rest in the MM region.

Abstract
In the present quantum chemical study, the biogenesis of the cofactor topaquinone (TPQ) has been studied using hybrid density functional theory (B3LYP). The suggested mechanism is divided into six steps and incorporates the observation of four crystallized intermediates. The experimental suggestion that the formation of the Cu(II)-peroxy species is the rate-limiting step is consistent with the results of the present study. Before the formation of the Cu(II)-peroxy species, dioxygen is suggested to first bind at the equatorial position on the copper metal center. A mechanism for the critical O-O bond cleavage is suggested, and this step is found to be driven by an unusually large exothermicity. A complex, spin-forbidden formation of H(2)O(2) with and without the involvement of the copper metal center is discussed. The results are discussed in detail, and comparisons are made to experimental findings and suggestions.

Abstract
In a previous DFT study a mechanism for the reductive half-reaction of pea seedling amine oxidase (PSAO) was suggested. In many of the suggested steps a lysine at the active site plays an important role. However, this lysine is not found in other amine oxidases. The primary aim of the present DFT study is therefore to investigate alternative mechanisms for those amine oxidases (CAO) where the lysine residue is not present. One of the most important roles suggested for the lysine in PSAO was to protonate the O2-site of TPQ before the critical Cbond;H bond cleavage of the substrate. In the absence of lysine the O2-site of TPQ is now suggested to be protonated by a water ligand on the copper metal complex, in line with experimental suggestions. In other steps the role of lysine is taken over by an asparagine. All results are compared with experimental observations and good agreement is generally found.

Abstract
Glucose oxidase (GO) and copper amine oxidase (CAO) catalyze the reduction of molecular oxygen to hydrogen peroxide. If a closed-shell cofactor (like FADH(2) in GO and topaquinone (TPQ) in CAO) is electron donor in dioxygen reduction, the formation of a closed-shell species (H(2)O(2)) is a spin forbidden process. Both in GO and CAO, formation of a superoxide ion that leads to the creation of a radical pair is experimentally suggested to be the rate-limiting step in the dioxygen reduction process. The present density functional theory (DFT) studies suggest that in GO, the creation of the radical pair induces a spin transition by spin orbit coupling (SOC) in O(2)(-)(rad), whereas in CAO, it is induced by exchange interaction with the paramagnetic metal ion (Cu(II)). In the rate-limiting step, this spin-transition is suggested to transform the O(2)(-)(rad)-FADH(2)(+)(rad) radical pair in GO and the Cu(II)-TPQ (triplet) species in CAO, from a triplet (T) to a singlet (S) state. For CAO, a mechanism for the O[bond]O cleavage step in the biogenesis of TPQ is also suggested.

Abstract
Hybrid density functional theory is used to study the catalytic mechanism of human glyoxalase I (GlxI). This zinc enzyme catalyzes the conversion of the hemithioacetal of toxic methylglyoxal and glutathione to nontoxic (S)-D-lactoylglutathione. GlxI can process both diastereomeric forms of the substrate, yielding the same form of the product. As a starting point for the calculations, we use a recent crystal structure of the enzyme in complex with a transition-state analogue, where it was found that the inhibitor is bound directly to the zinc by its hydroxycarbamoyl functions. It is shown that the Zn ligand Glu172 can abstract the substrate C1 proton from the S enantiomer of the substrate, without being displaced from the Zn ion. The calculated activation barrier is in excellent agreement with experimental rates. Analogously, the Zn ligand Glu99 can abstract the proton from the R form of the substrate. To account for the stereochemical findings, it is argued that the S and R reactions cannot be fully symmetric. A detailed mechanistic scheme is proposed.
