QM/MM Modeling of the Flavin Functionalization in the RutA Monooxygenase
Oxygenase activity of the flavin-dependent enzyme RutA is commonly associated with the formation of flavin-oxygen adducts in the enzyme active site. We report the results of quantum mechanics/molecular mechanics (QM/MM) modeling of possible reaction pathways initiated by various triplet state comple...

description | Oxygenase activity of the flavin-dependent enzyme RutA is commonly associated with the formation of flavin-oxygen adducts in the enzyme active site. We report the results of quantum mechanics/molecular mechanics (QM/MM) modeling of possible reaction pathways initiated by various triplet state complexes of the molecular oxygen with the reduced flavin mononucleotide (FMN) formed in the protein cavities. According to the calculation results, these triplet-state flavin-oxygen complexes can be located at both re-side and si-side of the isoalloxazine ring of flavin. In both cases, the dioxygen moiety is activated by electron transfer from FMN, stimulating the attack of the arising reactive oxygen species at the C4a, N5, C6, and C8 positions in the isoalloxazine ring after the switch to the singlet state potential energy surface. The reaction pathways lead to the C(4a)-peroxide, N(5)-oxide, or C(6)-hydroperoxide covalent adducts or directly to the oxidized flavin, depending on the initial position of the oxygen molecule in the protein cavities. |
