2.2A Crystal Structure of Co-CAO1
Structural highlights
FunctionCAO1_NEUCR Dioxygenase that cleaves the interphenyl C-alpha-C-beta double bond of resveratrol to yield 3,5-dihydroxybenzaldehyde and 4-hydroxybenzaldehyde (PubMed:23893079, PubMed:28493664). Cleaves also piceatannol, a compound that differs from resveratrol only in the occurrence of an additional hydroxyl group, which leads to the production of 3,4-dihydroxybenzaldehyde and 3,5-hydroxybenzaldehyde (PubMed:23893079 PubMed:28493664). Is not able to cleave trans-stilbene, 4-monohydroxy-trans-stilbene, 3,5-dihydroxy-trans-stilbene (pinosylvin), trismethoxy-resveratrol, and 3,3',5-trihydroxy-4'-methoxystilbene-3-O-beta-D-glucoside (PubMed:23893079). Is not involved in carotenoid metabolism (PubMed:23893079).[1] [2] Publication Abstract from PubMedCarotenoid cleavage oxygenases (CCO) are non-heme iron enzymes that catalyze oxidative cleavage of alkene bonds in carotenoid and stilbenoid substrates. Previously, we showed that the iron cofactor of CAO1, a resveratrol-cleaving member of this family, can be substituted with cobalt to yield a catalytically inert enzyme useful for trapping active site-bound stilbenoid substrates for structural characterization. Metal substitution may provide a general method for identifying the natural substrates for CCOs in addition to facilitating structural and biophysical characterization of CCO-carotenoid complexes under normal aerobic conditions. Here, we demonstrate the general applicability of cobalt substitution in a prototypical carotenoid cleaving CCO, apocarotenoid oxygenase (ACO) from Synechocystis. Among the non-native divalent metals investigated, cobalt was uniquely able to stably occupy the ACO metal binding site and inhibit catalysis. Analysis by X-ray crystallography and X-ray absorption spectroscopy demonstrate that the Co(II) forms of both ACO and CAO1 exhibit a close structural correspondence to the native Fe(II) enzyme forms. Hence, cobalt substitution is an effective strategy for generating catalytically inert but structurally intact forms of CCOs.
