RESUMO

Hydroxymethylbilane synthase (HMBS), which is involved in the heme biosynthesis pathway, has a dipyrromethane cofactor and combines four porphobilinogen (PBG) molecules to form a linear tetrapyrrole, hydroxymethylbilane. Enzyme kinetic study of human HMBS using a PBG-derivative, 2-iodoporphobilinogen (2-I-PBG), exhibited noncompetitive inhibition with the inhibition constant being 5.4 ± 0.3 µM. To elucidate the reaction mechanism of HMBS in detail, crystal structure analysis of 2-I-PBG-bound holo-HMBS and its reaction intermediate possessing two PBG molecules (ES2), and inhibitor-free ES2 was performed at 2.40, 2.31, and 1.79 Šresolution, respectively. Their overall structures are similar to that of inhibitor-free holo-HMBS, and the differences are limited near the active site. In both 2-I-PBG-bound structures, 2-I-PBG is located near the terminus of the cofactor or the tetrapyrrole chain. The propionate group of 2-I-PBG interacts with the side chain of Arg173, and its acetate group is associated with the side chains of Arg26 and Ser28. Furthermore, the aminomethyl group and pyrrole nitrogen of 2-I-PBG form hydrogen bonds with the side chains of Gln34 and Asp99, respectively. These amino acid residues form a single substrate-binding site, where each of the four PBG molecules covalently binds to the cofactor (or oligopyrrole chain) consecutively, ultimately forming a hexapyrrole chain. Molecular dynamics simulation of the ES2 intermediate suggested that the thermal fluctuation of the lid and cofactor-binding loops causes substrate recruitment and oligopyrrole chain shift needed for consecutive condensation. Finally, the hexapyrrole chain is hydrolyzed self-catalytically to produce hydroxymethylbilane.

RESUMO

Heptamethyl (aquo)(pentafluorophenylthiolate)cobyrinate perchlorate, [(H2O)(C6F5S)Cob(III)7C1ester]ClO4, was synthesized as a B12 model complex having a thiolate ligand in the axial position. The axial ligand change in heptamethyl (diaquo)cobyrinate diperchlorate, [(H2O)2Cob(III)7C1ester](ClO4)2, from H2O to C6F5S(-) afforded the B12-thiolate complex. The B12-thiolate model complex was characterized by UV-vis, NMR and ESI-mass spectroscopies. The coordination of C6F5S(-) to the cobalt center affected the spectroscopic properties of the corrin ring through the electronic interaction between the axial ligand (C6F5S(-)) and the equatorial ligand (corrin). The photolysis of the B12-thiolate model complex led to the homolytic cleavage of the Co(iii)-S bond to form the Co(II) complex and the phenyl thiyl radical. The thermolysis of the B12-thiolate model complex also led to the homolytic cleavage of the Co(III)-S bond. Furthermore, the reactivity of the Co(III)-S bond of the B12-thiolate model complex was applied to the catalytic oxidation of C6F5SH to C6F5S-SC6F5.

RESUMO

Catalytic methyl transfer reactions from methyl tosylate to 1-octanethiol catalyzed by heptamethyl cobyrinate perchlorate, [Cob(II)7C(1)ester]ClO(4), were investigated under electrochemical conditions. As a model study for the cobalamin-dependent methyl transfer reaction from methyltetrahydrofolate to homocysteine, controlled-potential electrolyses were carried out at -1.0 V vs. Ag/AgCl using a zinc plate as the sacrificial anode at 50 degrees C in the dark. A turnover behaviour for the methyl transfer reaction was observed for the first time under non-enzymatic reaction conditions. Co(I) species, which is generated from the continuous electrolysis of [Cob(II)7C(1)ester]ClO(4), and its methylated CH(3)-Co complex were found to be important intermediates. The mechanism for such a methyl transfer reaction was investigated by product analysis, electronic spectroscopy and ESR spin-trapping experiments. A simple vitamin B(12) model complex was also utilized as the catalyst for the methyl transfer reaction.
