Hydroxyquinol 1,2-dioxygenase (1,2-HQD) catalyzes the ring cleavage of hydroxyquinol (1,2,4-trihydroxy- benzene), a central intermediate in the degradation of aromatic compounds including a variety of particularly recalcitrant polychloro- and nitroaromatic pollutants.

Abstract
Hydroxyquinol 1,2-dioxygenase (1,2-HQD) catalyzes the ring cleavage of hydroxyquinol (1,2,4-trihydroxy- benzene), a central intermediate in the degradation of aromatic compounds including a variety of particularly recalcitrant polychloro- and nitroaromatic pollutants. We report here the primary sequence determination and the analysis of the crystal structure of the 1,2-HQD from Nocardioides simplex 3E solved at 1.75 Å resolution us- ing the multiple wavelength anomalous dispersion of the two catalytic irons (1 Fe/293 amino acids). The cata- lytic Fe(III) coordination polyhedron composed by the side chains of Tyr164, Tyr197, His221, and His223 resembles that of the other known intradiol-cleaving dioxygen- ases, but several of the tertiary structure features are notably different. One of the most distinctive character- istics of the present structure is the extensive openings and consequent exposure to solvent of the upper part of the catalytic cavity arranged to favor the binding of hydroxyquinols but not catechols. A co-crystallized ben- zoate-like molecule is also found bound to the metal center forming a distinctive hydrogen bond network as observed previously also in 4-chlorocatechol 1,2-dioxy- genase from Rhodococcus opacus 1CP. This is the first structure of an intradiol dioxygenase specialized in hy- droxyquinol ring cleavage to be investigated in detail.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
