TAILIEUCHUNG - Báo cáo khoa học: Crystal structure of heme oxygenase-1 from cyanobacterium Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 in complex with heme

Heme oxygenase (HO) catalyzes the oxidative degradation of heme utilizing molecular oxygen and reducing equiva-lents. In photosynthetic organisms, HO functions in the biosynthesis of such open-chain tetrapyrroles as phyto-chromobilin and phycobilins, which are involved in the sig-nal transduction for light responses and light harvesting for photosynthesis, respectively. | Eur.

In photosynthetic organisms HO functions in the biosynthesis of such open-chain tetrapyrroles as phyto-chromobilin and phycobilins which are involved in the signal transduction for light responses and light harvesting for photosynthesis respectively. We have determined the first crystal structure of a HO-1 from a photosynthetic organism Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 Syn HO-1 in complex with heme at A resolution. Heme-Syn HO-1 shares a common folding with other heme-HOs. Although the heme pocket of heme-Syn HO-1 is for the most part similar to that of mammalian HO-1 they differ in such features as the flexibility of the distal helix and hydrophobicity. In addition 2-propanol derived from the crystallization solution occupied the hydrophobic cavity which is proposed to be a CO trapping site in rat HO-1 that suppresses product inhibition. Although Syn HO-1 and mammalian HO-1 are similar in overall structure and amino acid sequence 57 similarity vs. human HO-1 their molecular surfaces differ in charge distribution. The surfaces of the heme binding sides are both positively charged but this patch of Syn HO-1 is narrow compared to that of mammalian HO-1. This feature is suited to the selective binding of ferredoxin the physiological redox partner of Syn HO-1 the molecular size of ferredoxin is w 10 kDa whereas .
