Identification of carboxylation enzymes and characterization of a novel four-subunit pyruvate:flavodoxin oxidoreductase from Helicobacter pylori

Abstract: CO 3؊ fixation activity, which was shown to be due to the isotope exchange reaction of pyruvate:flavodoxin oxidoreductase (EC 1.2.7.1), was present. The purified enzyme is composed of four subunits of 47, 36, 24, and 14 kDa. N-terminal sequence analysis showed that this enzyme is related to a recently recognized group of four-subunit pyruvate:ferredoxin oxidoreductases previously known only from hyperthermophiles. This enzyme from H. pylori was found to mediate the reduction of a number of artificial electron … Show more

“…Another possibility would be that these POR might be differentially expressed at different growth temperatures. While the 4 subunit type of POR seems to be most common in hyperthermophiles [33], its presence has also been observed in mesophiles [34]. Conversely the single subunit type, also found in the mesophile C. acetobutylicum has an in vitro temperature optimum of 60°C [21].…”

“…The fold increase in PC activity is the same as what we found by the previous method, but the absolute values are lower than our previous results (26). The method of determining PC activity by measuring NADH production has been widely used by many authors for determination of PC (10,15,50,58) and LDH activity (1,14,17,40,60) (only a partial list) in many different tissues. Because this method cannot discriminate between PC and LDH activities, the results reflect the total activity of PC plus LDH, which can be misleading when interpreted as only PC or LDH.…”

“…Similar to the cases of Helicobacter pylori and Campylobacter jejuni , T. tengcongensis has 12 genes (TTE0445, TTE0960, TTE0961, TTE1209, TTE1210, TTE1211, TTE1340, TTE1341, TTE1342, TTE2193, TTE2194, and TTE2198) related to the pyruvate:ferredoxin oxidoreductases and 2-oxoacid:ferredoxin oxidoreductases. The conversion of pyruvate to acetyl coenzyme A (acetyl CoA) is performed by the pyruvate ferrodoxin oxidoreductase (POR; Cayol et al 1995;Menon and Ragsdale 1997), a foursubunit enzyme described in H. pylori and other hyperthermophilic organisms (Hughes et al 1995). Acetyl CoA is converted to acetate and this process is catalyzed by four enzymes, phosphate acetyltransferase (TTE1482, TTE2195, and TTE2204), acetate kinase (TTE1481), NADH-:flavin oxidoreductase (TTE0012, TTE0988, TTE2131, and TTE2625), and Acyl-CoA dehydrogenase (TTE0545; Bock et al 1999).…”
