Demonstration That the Radical S-Adenosylmethionine (SAM) Enzyme PqqE Catalyzes de Novo Carbon-Carbon Cross-linking within a Peptide Substrate PqqA in the Presence of the Peptide Chaperone PqqD

Abstract: The radical S-adenosylmethionine (SAM) protein PqqE is predicted to function in the pyrroloquinoline quinone (PQQ) biosynthetic pathway via catalysis of carbon-carbon bond formation between a glutamate and tyrosine side chain within the small peptide substrate PqqA. We report here that PqqE activity is dependent on the accessory protein PqqD, which was recently shown to bind PqqA tightly. In addition, PqqE activity in vitro requires the presence of a flavodoxin-and flavodoxin reductasebased reduction system, w… Show more

“…In general, many radical SAM enzymes catalyze the abortive cleavage of SAM. In some cases, the abortive cleavage is caused by the inappropriate position of affinity tag (Grove, Ahlum, Sharma, Krebs, & Booker, 2010), or the use of non-physiological substrate (Yang et al, 2012), or reductant (Barr et al, 2016). Therefore, the extent of the abortive cleavage can be used for quality control of radical SAM enzyme preparation.…”
