TAILIEUCHUNG - Báo cáo khoa học: Molecular characterization of H2O2-forming NADH oxidases from Archaeoglobus fulgidus

Three NADH oxidase encoding genesnoxA-1, noxB-1 andnoxCwere cloned from the genome ofArchaeoglobus fulgidus, expressed inEscherichia coli, and the gene products were purified and characterized. Expression ofnoxA-1and noxB-1resulted in active gene products of the expected size. ThenoxCgene was expressed as well but the protein pro-duced showed no activity in the standardNox assay. NoxA-1 and NoxB-1 are both FAD-containing enzymes with subunit molecular masses of 48 and 69 kDa, respectively. | Eur. J.

Kengen John van der Oost and Willem M. de Vos Laboratory of Microbiology Department of Agrotechnology and Food Sciences Wageningen University the Netherlands Three NADH oxidase encoding genes noxA-1 noxB-1 and noxC were cloned from the genome of Archaeoglobus fulgidus expressed in Escherichia coli and the gene products were purified and characterized. Expression of noxA-1 and noxB-1 resulted in active gene products of the expected size. The noxC gene was expressed as well but the protein produced showed no activity in the standard Nox assay. NoxA-1 and NoxB-1 are both FAD-containing enzymes with subunit molecular masses of 48 and 69 kDa respectively. NoxA-1 exists predominantly as homodimer NoxB-1 as monomer. NoxA-1 and NoxB-1 showed pH optimum of and with specific NADH oxidase activities of U-mg-1 and U-mg-1 respectively. Both enzymes were specific for NADH as electron donor but with different apparent Km values NoxA-1 mM NoxB-1 mM . The apparent Km values for oxygen differed significantly NoxA-1 mM NoxB-1 mM . In contrast with all mesophilic homologues both enzymes were found to produce predominantly H2O2 instead of H2O. Despite apparent similarities NoxB-1 is essentially different from NoxA-1. Whereas NoxA-1 resembles typical H2O-producing Nox enzymes that are expected to have a role in oxidative stress defence NoxB-1 belongs to a small group of enzymes that is involved in catalysing the reduction of unsaturated acids and aldehydes suggesting a role in fatty acid oxidation. Moreover NoxB-1 contains a ferredoxin-like motif which is absent in NoxA-1. Keywords Archaeoglobus flavoprotein NADH oxidase oxygen stress. Archaeoglobus fulgidus is a strictly anaerobic hyperthermo-philic archaeon that has been isolated from marine hydrothermal environments as .
