Role of the Main Access Channel of Catalase-Peroxidase in Catalysis

Abstract: Catalase-peroxidases (KatG) are bifunctional heme peroxidases with an overwhelming catalatic activity. The structures show that the buried heme b is connected to the exterior of the enzyme by a main channel built up by KatG-specific loops named large loop LL1 and LL2, the former containing the highly conserved sequence Met-Gly-Leu-Ile-Tyr-Val-Asn-Pro-Glu-Gly. LL1 residues Ile248, Asn251, Pro252, and Glu253 of KatG from Synechocystis are the focus of this study because of their exposure to the solute matrix of … Show more

“…The optical spectrum of the pH 8.5 samples does not resemble that assigned to the ferric peroxo form of horseradish peroxidase or heme oxygenase (39,40), whereas the EPR data are clearly consistent with a low spin ferric peroxy heme; the intermediate formed at pH 8.5 at room temperature had been confirmed elsewhere to be a ferric species because in the presence of cyanide, a typical six coordinate low spin ferric complex was directly formed from it (41). A complete understanding of the identity of all species under these conditions awaits further study.…”

“…Another important residue at the distal heme cavity is D152, which is part of the substrate channel and has its side chain carboxyl group pointing toward the heme pocket. It participates in maintaining a rigid and extended hydrogen-bond network, which is important for the H 2 O 2 oxidation reaction [18,24]. Variants that had these residues exchanged (D152S, W122F, Y249F, and R439A) showed a significantly reduced catalase (see Table 1) but a normal or even enhanced peroxidase activity [9].…”

“…The detailed reasons for this are in some cases related to a change in the stability of intermediates in either mechanism in mutants; for example, in Mtb KatG[Y229F], a very rapid conversion of compound I, the classical oxoferryl heme -cation radical species, to a stable compound II occurs, allowing peroxidase activity but eliminating catalase activity (8); and in Mtb KatG[W107F], facile conversion to and stable formation of compound III also interferes with catalase activity. 4 Amino acid-based radicals play roles in those mechanistic changes. The formation of the covalent bonds within the distal side adduct is also proposed to involve Tyr and Trp radicals (14).…”
