It is proposed that UbiD activation requires oxidative maturation of the cofactor, for which two distinct isomers, prFMN(ketimine) and prFMN(iminium) have been observed. It also has been suggested that only the prFMN(iminium) form is relevant to catalysis, which requires transient cycloaddition between substrate and cofactor. Using Aspergillus niger Fdc1 as a model system, we reveal isomerization of prFMN(iminium) to prFMN(ketimine) is a light-dependent process that is largely independent of the Glu277-Arg173-Glu282 network and accompanied by irreversible loss of activity. On the other hand, efficient catalysis was highly dependent on an intact Glu-Ar-Glu network, as only Glu to Asp substitutions retain activity. Surprisingly, oxidative maturation to form the prFMN(iminium) species is severely affected only for the R173A variant. In summary, the unusual irreversible isomerization of prFMN is light dependent and likely proceeds via high-energy intermediates, but is independent of the Glu-Arg-Glu network. Our results from mutagenesis, crystallographic, spectroscopic and kinetic experiments indicate a clear role for the Glu-Arg-Glu network in both catalysis and oxidative maturation.
