Function[BPHD_BURXL] Catalyzes an unusual C-C bond hydrolysis of 2-hydroxy-6-oxo-6-phenylhexa-2,4-dienoic acid (HOPDA) to produce benzoic acid and 2-hydroxy-2,4-pentadienoic acid (HPD).[1] Evolutionary Conservation Check, as determined by ConSurfDB.

Publication Abstract from PubMedThe microbial degradation of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) by the biphenyl catabolic (Bph) pathway is limited in part by the pathway's fourth enzyme, BphD. BphD catalyzes an unusual carbon-carbon bond hydrolysis of 2-hydroxy-6-oxo-6-phenylhexa-2,4-dienoic acid (HOPDA), in which the substrate is subject to histidine-mediated enol-keto tautomerization prior to hydrolysis. Chlorinated HOPDAs such as 3-Cl HOPDA inhibit BphD. Here we report that BphD preferentially hydrolyzed a series of 3-substituted HOPDAs in the order H>F>Cl>Me, suggesting that catalysis is affected by steric, not electronic, determinants. Transient state kinetic studies performed using wild-type BphD and the hydrolysis-defective S112A variant indicated that large 3-substituents inhibited His-265-catalyzed tautomerization by 5 orders of magnitude. Structural analyses of S112A.3-Cl HOPDA and S112A.3,10-diF HOPDA complexes revealed a non-productive binding mode in which the plane defined by the carbon atoms of the dienoate moiety of HOPDA is nearly orthogonal to that of the proposed keto tautomer observed in the S112A.HOPDA complex. Moreover, in the 3-Cl HOPDA complex, the 2-hydroxo group is moved by 3.6 A from its position near the catalytic His-265 to hydrogen bond with Arg-190 and access of His-265 is blocked by the 3-Cl substituent. Nonproductive binding may be stabilized by interactions involving the 3-substituent with non-polar side chains. Solvent molecules have poor access to C6 in the S112A.3-Cl HOPDA structure, more consistent with hydrolysis occurring via an acyl-enzyme than a gem-diol intermediate. These results provide insight into engineering BphD for PCB degradation.
