Two of the carboxylate residues act as bridging ligands between the Fe ions. As the type and coordination geometry of the bridging ligands in the diferrous state are thought to modulate reactivity, they were used to group diiron oxygenases into three structural subclasses. Here, we use the small diiron-enzyme sulerythrin as a model to demonstrate that replacements of the bridging carboxylate amino acids allow us to decrease the distance between the two Fe ions, change the coordination of the bridging ligands from 1,3-carboxylates to 1,1-carboxylates and generate all three structural subclasses of diferrous active sites within the same protein scaffold. In addition to the known classes, we generated a coordination mode containing two 1,1-carboxylate bridges. The resulting changes in the Fe coordination also alter the nature of the diferric (hydro)peroxo intermediates formed upon reaction with O(2). Finally, we show that modulating the carboxylate bridges influences the reactivity of sulerythrin with O(2). We establish sulerythrin as a versatile platform to engineer distinct diFe centers by a few exchanges, producing various stable (hydro)peroxo intermediates for further studies.
