3-Sulfinopropionyl-coenzyme A (3SP-CoA) desulfinase from Advenella mimigardefordensis DPN7T: crystal structure and function of a desulfinase with an acyl-CoA dehydrogenase fold. Native crystal structure
Structural highlights
FunctionSPCAD_ADVMD Catalyzes the conversion 3-sulfinopropanoyl-CoA (3SP-CoA) to propanoyl-CoA by abstraction of sulfite (PubMed:23354747, PubMed:26057676). Does not show dehydrogenase activity (PubMed:23354747). Involved in the degradation of 3,3'-dithiodipropionate (DTDP), a sulfur-containing precursor substrate for biosynthesis of polythioesters (PTEs) (PubMed:23354747).[1] [2] Publication Abstract from PubMed3-Sulfinopropionyl-coenzyme A (3SP-CoA) desulfinase (AcdDPN7; EC 3.13.1.4) was identified during investigation of the 3,3'-dithiodipropionic acid (DTDP) catabolic pathway in the betaproteobacterium Advenella mimigardefordensis strain DPN7(T). DTDP is an organic disulfide and a precursor for the synthesis of polythioesters (PTEs) in bacteria, and is of interest for biotechnological PTE production. AcdDPN7 catalyzes sulfur abstraction from 3SP-CoA, a key step during the catabolism of DTDP. Here, the crystal structures of apo AcdDPN7 at 1.89 A resolution and of its complex with the CoA moiety from the substrate analogue succinyl-CoA at 2.30 A resolution are presented. The apo structure shows that AcdDPN7 belongs to the acyl-CoA dehydrogenase superfamily fold and that it is a tetramer, with each subunit containing one flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD) molecule. The enzyme does not show any dehydrogenase activity. Dehydrogenase activity would require a catalytic base (Glu or Asp residue) at either position 246 or position 366, where a glutamine and a glycine are instead found, respectively, in this desulfinase. The positioning of CoA in the crystal complex enabled the modelling of a substrate complex containing 3SP-CoA. This indicates that Arg84 is a key residue in the desulfination reaction. An Arg84Lys mutant showed a complete loss of enzymatic activity, suggesting that the guanidinium group of the arginine is essential for desulfination. AcdDPN7 is the first desulfinase with an acyl-CoA dehydrogenase fold to be reported, which underlines the versatility of this enzyme scaffold. 3-Sulfinopropionyl-coenzyme A (3SP-CoA) desulfinase from Advenella mimigardefordensis DPN7(T): crystal structure and function of a desulfinase with an acyl-CoA dehydrogenase fold.,Schurmann M, Meijers R, Schneider TR, Steinbuchel A, Cianci M Acta Crystallogr D Biol Crystallogr. 2015 Jun;71(Pt 6):1360-72. doi:, 10.1107/S1399004715006616.
