Identification and structural characterization of heme binding in a novel dye‐decolorizing peroxidase, TyrA

Abstract: TyrA is a member of the dye-decolorizing peroxidase (DyP) family, a new family of heme-dependent peroxidase recently identified in fungi and bacteria. Here, we report the crystal structure of TyrA in complex with iron protoporphyrin (IX) at 2.3 A. TyrA is a dimer, with each monomer exhibiting a two-domain, alpha/beta ferredoxin-like fold. Both domains contribute to the heme-binding site. Co-crystallization in the presence of an excess of iron protoporphyrin (IX) chloride allowed for the unambiguous location of… Show more

“…However, with the exception of a DyP from the plant pathogenic fungus T. cucumeris Dec1 (an anamorph of Rhizoctonia solani, a very common fungal plant pathogen), which has been characterized extensively (18,28,(30)(31)(32)34), little information is available on other members of the DyP family. In particular, studies on bacterial DyPs have been limited to only the automatically translated sequence or structural data (41,42). Within the context of further understanding the structure-function and potential applicability of these novel types of enzymes in general, we have taken an interest in DyP-type enzymes, particularly, the less known bacterial groups.…”

“…The enzymatic reaction could involve a distortion of the tetrapyrrol ring, as it is achieved by ferrochelatase during metal insertion (25). However, in the heme-TyrA structure (a YfeX ortholog), the protoporphyrin ring is plane (26).…”

“…Subsequent structures of complexes with heme (PDB code 2d3q, T. Sato, Y. Sugano & M. Shoda, unpublished work; PDB code 2iiz (Zubieta, Joseph et al, 2007) allowed the first unambiguous characterization of the active site, including the basis of the observed low-pH activity and the relationship between heme binding and oligomerization (Zubieta, Joseph et al, 2007). Identification of the active site from this liganded structure also allowed analysis of substrate specificity, which appears to be tailored to small hydrophobic molecules and is consistent with the putative role of TyrA in melanin biosynthesis.…”
