Structural basis for reductive radical formation and electron recycling in (R)-2-hydroxyisocaproyl-CoA dehydratase.

The radical enzyme (R)-2-hydroxyisocaproyl-CoA dehydratase catalyzes the dehydration of (R)-2-hydroxyisocaproyl-CoA in the fermentation of l-leucine by the human pathogenic bacterium Clostridium difficile. In contrast to other radical enzymes, such as bacterial class II ribonucleotide reductase or biotin synthase, the Fe/S cluster containing (R)-2-hydroxyisocaproyl-CoA dehydratase requires no special cofactors such as coenzyme B(12) or S-adenosylmethionine for radical generation. Instead it uses a single high-energy electron that is recycled after each turnover. The catalyzed reaction, an atypical α/β-dehydration, depends on the reductive formation of ketyl radicals on the substrate generated by injection of a single electron from the ATP-dependent activator protein. So far, it is unknown how the active electron is recycled and how unwanted side reactions are prevented, allowing for up to 10,000 turnovers. The crystal structure reveals that the heterodimeric protein contains two [4Fe-4S] clusters at a distance of 12 Å, each coordinated by three cysteines and one terminal ligand. The cluster in the α-subunit is part of the active site. In the absence of substrate, a water/hydroxide ion acts as the fourth ligand. The substrate replaces this ligand and coordinates the cluster via the carbonyl-oxygen of the thioester group. The cluster in the β-subunit has a terminal sulfhydryl/sulfido ligand and can act as a reservoir to protect the electron from unwanted side reactions via a recycling mechanism. The crystal structure of (R)-2-hydroxyisocaproyl-CoA dehydratase serves as a model for the reductively radical-generating metalloenzymes of the (R)-2-hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydratase and benzoyl-CoA reductase families. << Less

2-hydroxyisocaproyl-CoA dehydratase and its activator from Clostridium difficile.
Kim J., Darley D., Buckel W.

The hadBC and hadI genes from Clostridium difficile were functionally expressed in Escherichia coli and shown to encode the novel 2-hydroxyisocaproyl-CoA dehydratase HadBC and its activator HadI. The activated enzyme catalyses the dehydration of (R)-2-hydroxyisocaproyl-CoA to isocaprenoyl-CoA in the pathway of leucine fermentation. The extremely oxygen-sensitive homodimeric activator as well as the heterodimeric dehydratase, contain iron and inorganic sulfur; besides varying amounts of zinc, other metal ions, particularly molybdenum, were not detected in the dehydratase. The reduced activator transfers one electron to the dehydratase concomitant with hydrolysis of ATP, a process similar to that observed with the unrelated nitrogenase. The thus activated dehydratase was separated from the activator and ATP; it catalyzed about 10(4) dehydration turnovers until the enzyme became inactive. Adding activator, ATP, MgCl(2), dithionite and dithioerythritol reactivated the enzyme. This is the first demonstration with a 2-hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydratase that the catalytic electron is recycled after each turnover. In agreement with this observation, only substoichiometric amounts of activator (dehydratase/activator = 10 mol/mol) were required to generate full activity. << Less
