Abstract
A bulky, tridentate phenolate ligand (ImPh2 NNOtBu ) was used to synthesise the first example of a mononuclear, facial, N,N,O-bound iron(II) benzoylformate complex, [Fe(ImPh2 NNOtBu )(BF)] (2). The X-ray crystal structure of 2 reveals that the iron centre is pentacoordinate (τ=0.5), with a vacant site located cis to the bidentate BF ligand. The Mössbauer parameters of 2 are consistent with high-spin iron(II), and are very close to those reported for α-ketoglutarate-bound non-heme iron enzyme active sites. According to NMR and UV-vis spectroscopies, the structural integrity of 2 is retained in both coordinating and non-coordinating solvents. Cyclic voltammetry studies show that the iron centre has a very low oxidation potential and is more prone to electrochemical oxidation than the redox-active phenolate ligand. Complex 2 reacts with NO to form a S=3 /2 {FeNO}7 adduct in which NO binds directly to the iron centre, according to EPR, UV-vis, IR spectroscopies and DFT analysis. Upon O2 exposure, 2 undergoes oxidative decarboxylation to form a diiron(III) benzoate complex, [Fe2 (ImPh2 NNOtBu )2 (μ2 -OBz)(μ2 -OH)2 ]+ (3). A small amount of hydroxylated ligand was also observed by ESI-MS, hinting at the formation of a high-valent iron(IV)-oxo intermediate. Initial reactivity studies show that 2 is capable of oxygen atom transfer reactivity with O2 , converting methyl(p-tolyl)sulfide to sulfoxide.

Abstract
Fe(II)/2OG-dependent oxygenase γ-butyrobetaine hydroxylase (BBOX) stereoselectively hydroxylates inactive C-H bonds and produces L-carnitine. It has potential applications in the biosynthesis of L-carnitine and the synthesis of other small molecule alcohols. In this paper, we systematically explore the substrate range of Pseudomonas sp. AK1 BBOX (psBBOX), with emphasis on the quaternary ammonium portion of γ-butyrobetaine (γ-BB). The space limitation of the "aromatic cage" in psBBOX in the hydroxylation of large quaternary ammonium analogues was studied, and the role of four aromatic amino acid residues in the substrate binding mode was analyzed. Consequently, the F188A mutant was developed with the ability to hydroxylate cyclic quaternary ammonium analogues and generate new alcohol compounds by breaking the limitation of the "aromatic cage".

Abstract
Gut microbiota-diet interaction has been identified as a key factor of metabolic associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD). Recent studies suggested that dietary polyphenols may protect against MAFLD by regulating gut microbiota; however, the underlying mechanisms remain elusive. We first investigated the effects of cyanidin 3-glucoside and its phenolic metabolites on high-fat diet induced MAFLD in C57BL/6J mice, and protocatechuic acid (PCA) showed a significant positive effect. Next, regulation of PCA on lipid metabolism and gut microbiota were explored by MAFLD mouse model and fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) experiment. Dietary PCA reduced intraperitoneal and hepatic fat deposition with lower levels of transaminases (AST & ALT) and inflammatory cytokines (IL-1β, IL-2, IL-6, TNF-α & MCP-1), but higher HDL-c/LDL-c ratio. Characterization of gut microbiota indicated that PCA decreased the Firmicutes/Bacteroidetes ratio mainly by reducing the relative abundance of genus Enterococcus, which was positively correlated with the levels of LDL-c, AST, ALT and most of the up-regulated hepatic lipids by lipidomics analysis. FMT experiments showed that Enterococcus faecalis caused hepatic inflammation, fat deposition and insulin resistance with decreased expression of carnitine palmitoyltransferase-1 alpha (CPT1α), which can be reversed by PCA through inhibiting Enterococcus faecalis. Transcriptomics analysis suggested that Enterococcus faecalis caused a significant decrease in the expression of fibroblast growth factor 1 (Fgf1), and PCA recovered the expression of Fgf1 with insulin-like growth factor binding protein 2 (Igfbp2), insulin receptor substrate 1 (Irs1) and insulin receptor substrate 2 (Irs2). These results demonstrated that high proportion of gut Enterococcus faecalis accelerates MAFLD with decreased expression of CPT1α and Fgf1, which can be prevented by dietary supplementation of PCA.

Abstract
ε-Trimethyllysine dioxygenase (TMLD) is a non-heme Fe(II) and α-ketoglutarate dependent oxygenase that catalyzes the stereospecific hydroxylation of ε-trimethyl-l-lysine (TML) to β-hydroxy-TML during the first step of l-carnitine biosynthesis. Targeting TMLD with inhibitors is a viable strategy for the treatment of cardiovascular diseases. Herein, we report a methodology for isothermal titration calorimetry analysis of TMLD substrate analogue binding to the enzyme. Despite the high structural similarity of the tested compounds, two different binding mechanisms (enthalpy- and entropy-driven) were observed, giving insight into the ligand (substrate) selectivity of TMLD. We demonstrate that the method allows distinguishing a natural substrate-like binding mode, which correlates with the ability of the compounds to serve as substrates in the TMLD catalytic reaction.

Abstract
Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is an aggressive and highly lethal disease. Because of its heterogeneity and lack of hormone receptors or HER2 expression, targeted therapy is limited. Here, by performing a functional siRNA screening for 2-OG-dependent enzymes, we identified gamma-butyrobetaine hydroxylase 1 (BBOX1) as an essential gene for TNBC tumorigenesis. BBOX1 depletion inhibits TNBC cell growth while not affecting normal breast cells. Mechanistically, BBOX1 binds with the calcium channel inositol-1,4,5-trisphosphate receptor type 3 (IP3R3) in an enzymatic-dependent manner and prevents its ubiquitination and proteasomal degradation. BBOX1 depletion suppresses IP3R3-mediated endoplasmic reticulum calcium release, therefore impairing calcium-dependent energy-generating processes including mitochondrial respiration and mTORC1-mediated glycolysis, which leads to apoptosis and impaired cell-cycle progression in TNBC cells. Therapeutically, genetic depletion or pharmacologic inhibition of BBOX1 inhibits TNBC tumor growth in vitro and in vivo. Our study highlights the importance of targeting the previously uncharacterized BBOX1-IP3R3-calcium oncogenic signaling axis in TNBC. SIGNIFICANCE: We provide evidence from unbiased screens that BBOX1 is a potential therapeutic target in TNBC and that genetic knockdown or pharmacologic inhibition of BBOX1 leads to decreased TNBC cell fitness. This study lays the foundation for developing effective BBOX1 inhibitors for treatment of this lethal disease.This article is highlighted in the In This Issue feature, p. 1611.

Abstract
γ-Butyrobetaine hydroxylase (γ-BBH) is the last limiting enzyme of the l-carnitine biosynthesis pathway and plays an important role in catalyzing the hydroxylation of γ-butyrobetaine (γ-BB) to l-carnitine. To study the developmental effect of substrate concentration on the enzyme's specific activity, kinetics of γ-BBH were measured in liver and kidney from newborn and 1-, 7-, 21-, 35-, 56-, and 210-day-old domestic pigs. Fresh tissue homogenates were assayed under nine concentrations of γ-BB from 0 to 1.5 mM. Substrate inhibition associated with age was observed at ≥0.6 mM of γ-BB. Hepatic activity was low at birth but increased after 1 day. By 21 days, the activity rose by 6.6-fold (P < 0.05) and remained constant after 56 days. Renal activity was higher than in liver at birth but remained constant through 35 days. By 56 days, the velocity increased by 44% over the activity at birth (P < 0.05). The apparent Km for γ-BB at birth on average was 2.8-fold higher than at 1 day. The Km value was 60% higher in kidney than liver during development but showed no difference in adult pigs. The total organ enzyme activity increased by 130-fold for liver and 18-fold for kidney as organ weight increased from birth to 56 days. In conclusion, age and substrate affect γ-BBH specific activity and Km for γ-BB in liver and kidney. Whereas the predominant organ for carnitine synthesis is likely the kidney at birth, the liver appears to predominate after the pig exceeds 7 days of age.

Abstract
Background HIV-infected individuals undergoing effective antiretroviral therapy (ART) present an increased risk of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease. We identified serum metabolites associated with carotid intima-media thickness (c-IMT) and its evolution. Methods One hundred forty-three hydrophilic serum metabolites were measured by ultraperformance liquid chromatography coupled with high-resolution mass spectrometry in 49 HIV+ ART+, 48 HIV+ ART-naïve and 50 HIV-negative, age-matched, never-smoking male triads. Metabolites differentially altered between groups ("features") were defined as having a Benjamini-Hochberg-adjusted P value <.05 from a t test and >0.25 log2 absolute mean fold change in metabolite levels. c-IMT was measured across 12 sites at inclusion in all individuals and at the carotid artery (cca) after a median of 5.1 years in 32 HIV+ ART+ individuals. The difference in c-IMT (cross-sectional analysis) and slope of cca-IMT regression/progression per year (longitudinal analysis) for each log10 (area) increase in metabolite level were estimated with linear regression. Results Compared with HIV-, metabolite features of HIV+ ART+ were increased N6,N6,N6-trimethyl-L-lysine and decreased ferulate and 5-hydroxy-L-tryptophan, whereas features of HIV+ ART-naïve were increased malate, kynurenine, 2-oxoglutarate, and indole-3-acetate and decreased succinate and 5-hydroxy-L-tryptophan. In HIV+ ART+ individuals, quinolinate and/or indole-3-acetate were positively associated with c-IMT (P < .03), cca-IMT (P < .03), and cca-IMT progression (P < .008). These associations were not observed in HIV+ ART-naïve or HIV-negative individuals. In HIV+ ART+ individuals, the metabolites xanthosine and uridine, from nucleotide metabolism, and g-butyrobetaine, from lysine/dietary choline degradation, were also positively or negatively associated with c-IMT and/or cca-IMT (all P < .01), but not its evolution. Conclusions In these highly selected HIV-positive ART-controlled males, 2 novel metabolites derived from tryptophan catabolism, indole-3-acetate and quinolinate, were associated with c-IMT and its progression.

Abstract
The final step in the biosynthesis of l-carnitine in humans is catalysed by the 2-oxoglutarate and ferrous iron dependent oxygenase, γ-butyrobetaine hydroxylase (BBOX). 1H and 19F NMR studies inform on the BBOX mechanism including by providing evidence for cooperativity between monomers in substrate/some inhibitor binding. The value of the 19F NMR methods is demonstrated by their use in the design of new BBOX inhibitors.

Abstract
Studies on proline hydroxylase selectivity reveals new products. Proline hydroxylases can produce dihydroxylated 5-, 6-, and 7-membered ring products. Proline hydroxylases can accept bicyclic substrates. Bicyclic products arise via bifurcation: two C-H bonds are accessible to the reactive oxidising species. The results have implications for other oxygenases, including those catalysing protein modifications. The results highlight the potential for amino acid hydroxylases in biocatalysis.
Studies on the substrate selectivity of recombinant ferrous-iron- and 2-oxoglutarate-dependent proline hydroxylases (PHs) reveal that they can catalyse the production of dihydroxylated 5-, 6-, and 7-membered ring products, and can accept bicyclic substrates. Ring-substituted substrate analogues (such hydroxylated and fluorinated prolines) are accepted in some cases. The results highlight the considerable, as yet largely untapped, potential for amino acid hydroxylases and other 2OG oxygenases in biocatalysis.

The 2-oxoglutarate (2OG) dependent oxygenases were first identified as having roles in the post-translational modification of procollagen in animals. Subsequently in plants and microbes, they were shown to have roles in the biosynthesis of many secondary metabolites, including signalling molecules and the penicillin/cephalosporin antibiotics. Crystallographic studies of microbial 2OG oxygenases and related enzymes, coupled to DNA sequence analyses, led to the prediction that 2OG oxygenases are widely distributed in aerobic biology. This personal account begins with examples of the roles of 2OG oxygenases in antibiotic biosynthesis, and then describes efforts to assign functions to other predicted 2OG oxygenases. In humans, 2OG oxygenases have been found to have roles in small molecule metabolism, as well as in the epigenetic regulation of protein and nucleic acid biosynthesis and function. The roles and functions of human 2OG oxygenases are compared, focussing on discussion of their substrate and product selectivities. The account aims to emphasize how scoping the substrate selectivity of, sometimes promiscuous, enzymes can provide insights into their functions and so enable therapeutic work.

Abstract
2-Oxoglutarate (2OG)-dependent oxygenases (2OGXs) catalyze a remarkably diverse range of oxidative reactions. In animals, these comprise hydroxylations and N-demethylations proceeding via hydroxylation; in plants and microbes, they catalyze a wider range including ring formations, rearrangements, desaturations, and halogenations. The catalytic flexibility of 2OGXs is reflected in their biological functions. After pioneering work identified the roles of 2OGXs in collagen biosynthesis, research revealed they also function in plant and animal development, transcriptional regulation, nucleic acid modification/repair, fatty acid metabolism, and secondary metabolite biosynthesis, including of medicinally important antibiotics. In plants, 2OGXs are important agrochemical targets and catalyze herbicide degradation. Human 2OGXs, particularly those regulating transcription, are current therapeutic targets for anemia and cancer. Here, we give an overview of the biochemistry of 2OGXs, providing examples linking to biological function, and outline how knowledge of their enzymology is being exploited in medicine, agrochemistry, and biocatalysis.

Abstract
Several nucleotide-specific phosphohydrolases can cleave P-F bonds in substrate analogues containing a fluorophosphate moiety to release fluoride ions. In this work, by employing a fluoride-sensitive molecular sensor, we harnessed this cleavage reaction to develop a fluorescence assay to screen for phosphohydrolase inhibitors. The assay is rapid, sensitive, and based on simple and synthetically available reagents. The assay was adapted to the high-throughput screening (HTS) format and its utility was demonstrated by screening an 'in-house' library of small nucleotides against two enzymes: DcpS, a metal-independent mRNA decapping pyrophosphatase of the histidine triad (HIT) family; and PDE-I, a divalent cation-dependent nuclease. Our screening results agreed with the known specificities of DcpS and PDE-I, and led to the selection of several inhibitors featuring low-micromolar IC50 values. For DcpS, we also verified the results by using an alternative method with the natural substrate. Notably, the assay presented here is the first fluorescence-based HTS-adaptable assay for DcpS, an established therapeutic target for spinal muscular atrophy. The assay should be useful for phosphohydrolase specificity profiling and inhibitor discovery, particularly in the context of DcpS and other HIT-family enzymes, which play key roles in maintaining cellular functions and have been linked to disease development.

Abstract
Trimethyllysine hydroxylase (TMLH) is a non-haem Fe(ii) and 2-oxoglutarate dependent oxygenase that catalyses the C-3 hydroxylation of an unactivated C-H bond in l-trimethyllysine in the first step of carnitine biosynthesis. The examination of trimethyllysine analogues as substrates for human TMLH reveals that the enzyme does hydroxylate substrates other than natural l-trimethyllysine.

Abstract
Discovery of metabolomic biomarkers represents an important task in disease diagnosis and therapy. Although the development of various analytical tools and online libraries facilitates the identification of biomarkers, the fast and reliable identification of new biomarkers that are not included in databases still represents a major bottleneck in the field of metabolomics. Here, we developed a metabolic pathway extension (MPE) approach to the fast characterization of metabolomic biomarkers. This approach was proposed based on a core concept that the whole metabolome is built from a limited number of initial metabolites via various kinds and multiple steps of metabolic reactions, and thus, theoretically, the whole metabolome might be mapped from the initial metabolites and metabolic reactions. Carnitine was used as an example of initial metabolites to validate this concept and the usefulness of MPE approach. The intragastric dosing of carnitine to mice induced a significant alternation of a total of 97 metabolites. Mass differences between each pair of metabolites were calculated and then matched with those of typical metabolic pathways automatically by an in-house developed program. Diagnostic ions and neutral losses were used for validating the matches. With this approach, 93 out of a total of 97 metabolites were putatively identified, while only half of them could be traced from the currently available online database. The MPE approach was further validated by applying to the identification of carnitine-associated biomarkers in a typical mice model of fasting, and extended to the development of bile acids submetabolome. Our study indicates that the MPE approach is highly useful for rapid and reliable identification of metabolically and structurally associated biomarkers.

Abstract
Metallo-β-lactamases (MBLs) are of increasing clinical significance; the development of clinically useful MBL inhibitors is challenged by the rapid evolution of variant MBLs. The Verona integron-borne metallo-β-lactamase (VIM) enzymes are among the most widely distributed MBLs, with >40 VIM variants having been reported. We report on the crystallographic analysis of VIM-5 and comparison of biochemical and biophysical properties of VIM-1, VIM-2, VIM-4, VIM-5, and VIM-38. Recombinant VIM variants were produced and purified, and their secondary structure and thermal stabilities were investigated by circular dichroism analyses. Steady-state kinetic analyses with a representative panel of β-lactam substrates were carried out to compare the catalytic efficiencies of the VIM variants. Furthermore, a set of metalloenzyme inhibitors were screened to compare their effects on the different VIM variants. The results reveal only small variations in the kinetic parameters of the VIM variants but substantial differences in their thermal stabilities and inhibition profiles. Overall, these results support the proposal that protein stability may be a factor in MBL evolution and highlight the importance of screening MBL variants during inhibitor development programs.

Abstract
2-Oxoglutarate and iron dependent oxygenases have potential for the stereoselective hydroxylation of amino acids and related compounds. The biochemical and kinetic properties of recombinant γ-butyrobetaine hydroxylase from human and Pseudomonas sp. AK1 were compared. The results reveal differences between the two BBOXs, including in their stimulation by ascorbate. Despite their closely related sequences, the two enzymes also display different substrate selectivities, including for the production of (di)hydroxylated betaines, implying use of engineered BBOXs for biocatalytic purposes may be productive.
