An oxidative pathway for microbial utilization of methylphosphonic acid as a phosphate source.

Methylphosphonic acid is synthesized by marine bacteria and is a prominent component of dissolved organic phosphorus. Consequently, methylphosphonic acid also serves as a source of inorganic phosphate (Pi) for marine bacteria that are starved of this nutrient. Conversion of methylphosphonic acid into Pi is currently only known to occur through the carbon-phosphorus lyase pathway, yielding methane as a byproduct. In this work, we describe an oxidative pathway for the catabolism of methylphosphonic acid in Gimesia maris DSM8797. G. maris can use methylphosphonic acid as Pi sources despite lacking a phn operon encoding a carbon-phosphorus lyase pathway. Instead, the genome contains a locus encoding homologues of the non-heme Fe(II) dependent oxygenases HF130PhnY* and HF130PhnZ, which were previously shown to convert 2-aminoethylphosphonic acid into glycine and Pi. GmPhnY* and GmPhnZ1 were produced in E. coli and purified for characterization in vitro. The substrate specificities of the enzymes were evaluated with a panel of synthetic phosphonates. Via <sup>31</sup>P NMR spectroscopy, it is demonstrated that the GmPhnY* converts methylphosphonic acid to hydroxymethylphosphonic acid, which in turn is oxidized by GmPhnZ1 to produce formic acid and Pi. In contrast, 2-aminoethylphosphonic acid is not a substrate for GmPhnY* and is therefore not a substrate for this pathway. These results thus reveal a new metabolic fate for methylphosphonic acid. << Less

PhnY and PhnZ comprise a new oxidative pathway for enzymatic cleavage of a carbon-phosphorus bond.
McSorley F.R., Wyatt P.B., Martinez A., DeLong E.F., Hove-Jensen B., Zechel D.L.
The sequential activities of PhnY, an α-ketoglutarate/Fe(II)-dependent dioxygenase, and PhnZ, a Fe(II)-dependent enzyme of the histidine-aspartate motif hydrolase family, cleave the carbon-phosphorus bond of the organophosphonate natural product 2-aminoethylphosphonic acid.

The sequential activities of PhnY, an α-ketoglutarate/Fe(II)-dependent dioxygenase, and PhnZ, a Fe(II)-dependent enzyme of the histidine-aspartate motif hydrolase family, cleave the carbon-phosphorus bond of the organophosphonate natural product 2-aminoethylphosphonic acid. PhnY adds a hydroxyl group to the α-carbon, yielding 2-amino-1-hydroxyethylphosphonic acid, which is oxidatively converted by PhnZ to inorganic phosphate and glycine. The PhnZ reaction represents a new enzyme mechanism for metabolic cleavage of a carbon-phosphorus bond. << Less

The enzymes PhnY and PhnZ comprise an oxidative catabolic pathway that enables marine bacteria to use 2-aminoethylphosphonic acid as a source of inorganic phosphate. PhnZ is notable for catalyzing the oxidative cleavage of a carbon-phosphorus bond using Fe(II) and dioxygen, despite belonging to a large family of hydrolytic enzymes, the HD-phosphohydrolase superfamily. We have determined high-resolution structures of PhnZ bound to its substrate, (R)-2-amino-1-hydroxyethylphosphonate (2.1 Å), and a buffer additive, l-tartrate (1.7 Å). The structures reveal PhnZ to have an active site containing two Fe ions coordinated by four histidines and two aspartates that is strikingly similar to the carbon-carbon bond cleaving enzyme, myo-inositol-oxygenase. The exception is Y24, which forms a transient ligand interaction at the dioxygen binding site of Fe2. Site-directed mutagenesis and kinetic analysis with substrate analogs revealed the roles of key active site residues. A fifth histidine that is conserved in the PhnZ subclade, H62, specifically interacts with the substrate 1-hydroxyl. The structures also revealed that Y24 and E27 mediate a unique induced-fit mechanism whereby E27 specifically recognizes the 2-amino group of the bound substrate and toggles the release of Y24 from the active site, thereby creating space for molecular oxygen to bind to Fe2. Structural comparisons of PhnZ reveal an evolutionary connection between Fe(II)-dependent hydrolysis of phosphate esters and oxidative carbon-phosphorus or carbon-carbon bond cleavage, thus uniting the diverse chemistries that are found in the HD superfamily. << Less

The founding members of the HD-domain protein superfamily are phosphohydrolases, and newly discovered members are generally annotated as such. However, myo-inositol oxygenase (MIOX) exemplifies a second, very different function that has evolved within the common scaffold of this superfamily. A recently discovered HD protein, PhnZ, catalyzes conversion of 2-amino-1-hydroxyethylphosphonate to glycine and phosphate, culminating a bacterial pathway for the utilization of environmentally abundant 2-aminoethylphosphonate. Using Mössbauer and EPR spectroscopies, X-ray crystallography, and activity measurements, we show here that, like MIOX, PhnZ employs a mixed-valent Fe(II)/Fe(III) cofactor for the O2-dependent oxidative cleavage of its substrate. Phylogenetic analysis suggests that many more HD proteins may catalyze yet-unknown oxygenation reactions using this hitherto exceptional Fe(II)/Fe(III) cofactor. The results demonstrate that the catalytic repertoire of the HD superfamily extends well beyond phosphohydrolysis and suggest that the mechanism used by MIOX and PhnZ may be a common strategy for oxidative C-X bond cleavage. << Less
