Willetts A. Inter-Species Redox Coupling by Flavin Reductases and FMN-Dependent Two-Component Monooxygenases Undertaking Nucleophilic Baeyer-Villiger Biooxygenations. Microorganisms 2022; 11:microorganisms11010071. [PMID: 36677363 PMCID: PMC9864536 DOI: 10.3390/microorganisms11010071] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/10/2022] [Revised: 12/19/2022] [Accepted: 12/23/2022] [Indexed: 12/28/2022] Open
Abstract
Using highly purified enzyme preparations throughout, initial kinetic studies demonstrated that the isoenzymic 2,5- and 3,6-diketocamphane mono-oxygenases from Pseudomonas putida ATCC 17453 and the LuxAB luciferase from Vibrio fischeri ATCC 7744 exhibit commonality in being FMN-dependent two-component monooxygenases that promote redox coupling by the transfer of flavin reductase-generated FMNH2 by rapid free diffusion. Subsequent studies confirmed the comprehensive inter-species compatibility of both native and non-native flavin reductases with each of the tested monooxygenases. For all three monooxygenases, non-native flavin reductases from Escherichia coli ATCC 11105 and Aminobacter aminovorans ATCC 29600 were confirmed to be more efficient donators of FMNH2 than the corresponding tested native flavin reductases. Some potential practical implications of these outcomes are considered for optimising FMNH2-dependent biooxygenations of recognised practical and commercial value.

Abstract
Noncanonical cofactor biomimetics (NCBs) such as nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN+) provide enhanced scalability for biomanufacturing. However, engineering enzymes to accept NCBs is difficult. Here, we establish a growth selection platform to evolve enzymes to utilize NMN+-based reducing power. This is based on an orthogonal, NMN+-dependent glycolytic pathway in Escherichia coli which can be coupled to any reciprocal enzyme to recycle the ensuing reduced NMN+. With a throughput of >106 variants per iteration, the growth selection discovers a Lactobacillus pentosus NADH oxidase variant with ~10-fold increase in NMNH catalytic efficiency and enhanced activity for other NCBs. Molecular modeling and experimental validation suggest that instead of directly contacting NCBs, the mutations optimize the enzyme's global conformational dynamics to resemble the WT with the native cofactor bound. Restoring the enzyme's access to catalytically competent conformation states via deep navigation of protein sequence space with high-throughput evolution provides a universal route to engineer NCB-dependent enzymes.

Abstract
Temperature is a crucial parameter for biological and chemical processes. Its effect on enzymatically catalysed reactions has been known for decades, and the stereo- and enantiopreference are often temperature-dependent. For the first time, we present the temperature effect on the Baeyer-Villiger oxidation of rac- bicyclo[3.2.0]hept-2-en-6-one by the type II Bayer-Villiger monooxygenase, 2,5-DKCMO. In the absence of a reductase and driven by the hydride-donation of a synthetic nicotinamide analogue, the clear trend for a decreasing enantioselectivity at higher temperatures was observed. "Traditional" approaches such as the determination of the enantiomeric ratio (E) appeared unsuitable due to the complexity of the system. To quantify the trend, we chose to use the 'Shape Language Modelling' (SLM), a tool that allows the reaction to be described at all points in a shape prescriptive manner. Thus, without knowing the equation of the reaction, the substrate ee can be estimated that at any conversion.

The Isoenzymic Diketocamphane Monooxygenases of Pseudomonas putida ATCC 17453-An Episodic History and Still Mysterious after 60 Years. Microorganisms 2021; 9:microorganisms9122593. [PMID: 34946195 PMCID: PMC8706424 DOI: 10.3390/microorganisms9122593] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/03/2021] [Revised: 12/07/2021] [Accepted: 12/10/2021] [Indexed: 11/17/2022] Open
Abstract
Researching the involvement of molecular oxygen in the degradation of the naturally occurring bicyclic terpene camphor has generated a six-decade history of fascinating monooxygenase biochemistry. While an extensive bibliography exists reporting the many varied studies on camphor 5-monooxygenase, the initiating enzyme of the relevant catabolic pathway in Pseudomonas putida ATCC 17453, the equivalent recorded history of the isoenzymic diketocamphane monooxygenases, the enzymes that facilitate the initial ring cleavage of the bicyclic terpene, is both less extensive and more enigmatic. First referred to as ‘ketolactonase—an enzyme for cyclic lactonization’—the enzyme now classified as 2,5-diketocamphane 1,2-monooxygenase (EC 1.14.14.108) holds a special place in the history of oxygen-dependent biochemistry, being the first biocatalyst confirmed to undertake a biooxygenation reaction equivalent to the peracid-catalysed Baeyer–Villiger chemical oxidation first reported in the late 19th century. However, following that auspicious beginning, the biochemistry of EC 1.14.14.108, and its isoenzymic partner 3,6-diketocamphane 1,6-monooxygenase (EC 1.14.14.155) was dogged for many years by the mistaken belief that the enzymes were true flavoproteins that function with a tightly-bound flavin cofactor in the active site. This misconception led to a number of erroneous interpretations of relevant experimental data. It is only in the last decade, initially as the result of pure serendipity, that these enzymes have been confirmed to be members of a relatively recently discovered class of oxygen-dependent enzymes, the flavin-dependent two-component monooxygenases. This has promoted a renaissance of interest in the enzymes, resulting in programmes of research that have significantly expanded current knowledge of both their mode of action and regulation in camphor-grown P. putida ATCC 17453. However, some features of the biochemistry of the isoenzymic diketocamphane monooxygenases remain currently unexplained. It is the episodic history of these enzymes and some of what remains unresolved that are the principal subjects of this review.

Asymmetric azidohydroxylation of styrene derivatives mediated by a biomimetic styrene monooxygenase enzymatic cascade. Catal Sci Technol 2021; 11:5077-5085.

Abstract
Enantioenriched azido alcohols are precursors for valuable chiral aziridines and 1,2-amino alcohols, however their chiral substituted analogues are difficult to access. We established a cascade for the asymmetric azidohydroxylation of styrene derivatives leading to chiral substituted 1,2-azido alcohols via enzymatic asymmetric epoxidation, followed by regioselective azidolysis, affording the azido alcohols with up to two contiguous stereogenic centers. A newly isolated two-component flavoprotein styrene monooxygenase StyA proved to be highly selective for epoxidation with a nicotinamide coenzyme biomimetic as a practical reductant. Coupled with azide as a nucleophile for regioselective ring opening, this chemo-enzymatic cascade produced highly enantioenriched aromatic α-azido alcohols with up to >99% conversion. A bi-enzymatic counterpart with halohydrin dehalogenase-catalyzed azidolysis afforded the alternative β-azido alcohol isomers with up to 94% diastereomeric excess. We anticipate our biocatalytic cascade to be a starting point for more practical production of these chiral compounds with two-component flavoprotein monooxygenases.
