A Coupled Dinuclear Iron Cluster that Is Perturbed by Substrate Binding in myo-Inositol Oxygenase
myo-Inositol oxygenase (MIOX) uses iron as its cofactor and dioxygen as its cosubstrate to effect the unique, ring-cleaving, four-electron oxidation of its cyclohexan-(1,2,3,4,5,6-hexa)-ol substrate to d-glucuronate. The nature of the iron cofactor and its interaction with the substrate, myo-inosito...

Zusammenfassung: | myo-Inositol oxygenase (MIOX) uses iron as its cofactor and dioxygen as its cosubstrate to effect the unique, ring-cleaving, four-electron oxidation of its cyclohexan-(1,2,3,4,5,6-hexa)-ol substrate to d-glucuronate. The nature of the iron cofactor and its interaction with the substrate, myo-inositol (MI), have been probed by electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) and Mössbauer spectroscopies. The data demonstrate the formation of an antiferromagnetically coupled, high-spin diiron(III/III) cluster upon treatment of solutions of Fe(II) and MIOX with excess O2 or H2O2 and the formation of an antiferromagnetically coupled, valence-localized, high-spin diiron(II/III) cluster upon treatment with either limiting O2 or excess O2 in the presence of a mild reductant (e.g., ascorbate). Marked changes to the spectra of both redox forms upon addition of MI and analogy to changes induced by binding of phosphate to the diiron(II/III) cluster of the protein phosphatase, uteroferrin, suggest that MI coordinates directly to the diiron cluster, most likely in a bridging mode. The addition of MIOX to the growing family of non-heme diiron oxygenases expands the catalytic range of the family beyond the two-electron oxidation (hydroxylation and dehydrogenation) reactions catalyzed by its more extensively studied members such as methane monooxygenase and stearoyl acyl carrier protein Δ9-desaturase. |
