ABSTRACT
4-Chlorophenylacetate 3,4-dioxygenase system from Pseudomonas sp. CBS 3 consists of two protein components, a red-brown iron-sulfur protein (component A) which functions as dioxygenase and an orange-colored reductase (component B). Component B was purified by a five-step procedure. Criterion of purity was sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, which also showed that the protein consists of one polypeptide species with a molecular weight of 35,000. With gel chromatography on Sephadex G-100 also, a molecular weight of 35,000 was found for the native enzyme, suggesting a monomeric structure for the reductase enzyme. The isoelectric point was determined as pH 4.8. The visible absorption spectrum of the homogeneous protein exhibits maxima at 336, 394, and 458 nm. One mol of FMN, 2.1 mol of iron, and 1.7 mol of acid-labile sulfide were found in one mol of component B. The EPR-spectrum of the reduced form of the enzyme (with NADH) showed two types of signals. The signal at g values of 2.03, 1.94, and 1.90 was assigned to an iron-sulfur cluster of the [2Fe-2S]-type. The properties of the other signal type at g = 2.004 are characteristic of flavosemiquinone radical which does not show coupling to an other paramagnetic center. The apparent Km values for 2,6-dichlorophenolindophenol, cytochrome c, and NADH were calculated from Lineweaver-Burk plots as 6.3, 2.3, and 32 microM, respectively. Inhibitors of the reductase are metal-chelating reagents and sulfhydryl-inhibiting compounds. Component B reduces several redox compounds 2,6-dichlorophenolindophenol, potassium hexacyanoferrat III, cytochrome c, methylene blue, and nitro blue tetrazolium.
