Abstract
|
 |
|
Galactose oxidase is an extracellular enzyme secreted by the fungus Dactylium
dendroides. It is monomeric, with a relative molecular mass of 68,000, catalyses
the stereospecific oxidation of a broad range of primary alcohol substrates and
possesses a unique mononuclear copper site essential for catalysing a
two-electron transfer reaction during the oxidation of primary alcohols to
corresponding aldehydes. Recent evidence arguing against a Cu(III)-Cu(I) couple
implies the existence of a second redox-active site proposed to involve
pyrroloquinoline quinone or a tyrosine radical. We now report the crystal
structure of galactose oxidase at 1.7 A resolution. This reveals a unique
structural feature at the copper site with a novel thioether bond linking Cys
228 and Tyr 272 in a stacking interaction with Trp 290. We propose that these
molecular components stabilize the protein free-radical species essential for
catalysis and thus provide a 'built-in' secondary cofactor. This feature may
represent a new mechanism for mediating electron transfer in metalloenzymes in
the absence of exogenous cofactors.
