6-Hydroxypseudooxynicotine Dehydrogenase Delivers Electrons to Electron Transfer Flavoprotein during Nicotine Degradation by Agrobacterium tumefaciens S33

S33 degrades nicotine via a novel hybrid of the pyridine and the pyrrolidine pathways. The hybrid pathway consists of at least six steps involved in oxidoreductive reactions before the -heterocycle can be broken down. Collectively, the six steps allow electron transfer from nicotine and its intermed...

description S33 degrades nicotine via a novel hybrid of the pyridine and the pyrrolidine pathways. The hybrid pathway consists of at least six steps involved in oxidoreductive reactions before the -heterocycle can be broken down. Collectively, the six steps allow electron transfer from nicotine and its intermediates to the final acceptor O via the electron transport chain (ETC). 6-Hydroxypseudooxynicotine oxidase, renamed 6-hydroxypseudooxynicotine dehydrogenase in this study, has been characterized as catalyzing the fourth step using the artificial electron acceptor 2,6-dichlorophenolindophenol. Here, we used biochemical, genetic, and liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) analyses to determine that 6-hydroxypseudooxynicotine dehydrogenase utilizes the electron transfer flavoprotein (EtfAB) as the physiological electron acceptor to catalyze the dehydrogenation of pseudooxynicotine, an analogue of the true substrate 6-hydroxypseudooxynicotine, , into 3-succinoyl-semialdehyde-pyridine. NAD(P) , O , and ferredoxin could not function as electron acceptors. The oxygen atom in the aldehyde group of the product 3-succinoyl-semialdehyde-pyridine was verified to be derived from H O. Disruption of the genes in the nicotine-degrading gene cluster decreased the growth rate of S33 on nicotine but not on 6-hydroxy-3-succinoylpyridine, an intermediate downstream of the hybrid pathway, indicating the requirement of EtfAB for efficient nicotine degradation. The electrons were found to be further transferred from the reduced EtfAB to coenzyme Q by the catalysis of electron transfer flavoprotein:ubiquinone oxidoreductase. These results aid in an in-depth understanding of the electron transfer process and energy metabolism involved in the nicotine oxidation and provide novel insights into nicotine catabolism in bacteria. Nicotine has been studied as a model for toxic -heterocyclic aromatic compounds. Microorganisms can catabolize nicotine via various pathways and conserve energy from its oxidation. Although several oxidoreductases have been characterized to participate in nicotine degradation, the electron transfer involved in these processes is poorly understood. In this study, we found that 6-hydroxypseudooxynicotine dehydrogenase, a key enzyme in the hybrid pyridine and pyrrolidine pathway for nicotine degradation in S33, utilizes EtfAB as a physiological electron acceptor.
