6-Azidoflavins have been bound to the apoproteins of five representative flavoproteins and their properties, before and after light irradiation, compared with those of the same proteins containing the appropriate 6-aminoflavin. In the dark the 6-azidoflavoproteins are quite stable, except for L-lactate oxidase, where spontaneous conversion to the 6-amino-FMN enzyme occurs slowly at pH 7. 6-Azido-FMN Old Yellow Enzyme is converted to the 6-amino-FMN enzyme by aerobic turnover with NADPH, and 6-azido-FAD D-amino acid oxidase is converted to the 6-amino-FAD enzyme by treatment with D-alanine. Light irradiation of 6-azidoriboflavin bound to riboflavin-binding protein does not result in any covalent fixation of the flavin to the protein. Light irradiation of 6-azido-FMN flavodoxin gives only a small amount of covalent linkage. In contrast, 6-azido-FMN Old Yellow Enzyme undergoes a very facile light-induced change, in which approximately 50% of the flavin is attached in a stable covalent linkage to the protein. The resulting flavoprotein form has lost the ability to bind phenols, a distinctive characteristic of the native enzyme; it does, however, bind NADPH, but the latter cannot reduce the covalently bound flavin. 6-Azido-FAD D-amino acid oxidase also undergoes a facile light modification, in which almost quantitative fixation of the flavin to the protein takes place. The resulting flavoprotein cannot bind benzoate, an active-site ligand for the native enzyme, nor is it reduced anaerobically by D-alanine. The covalent linkage is fairly labile and is destroyed on denaturation of the protein.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

6-Thiocyanatoflavins have been found to be susceptible to nucleophilic displacement reactions with sulfite and thiols, yielding respectively the 6-S-SO3--flavin and 6-mercaptoflavin, with rate constants at pH 7.0, 20 degrees C, of 55 M-1 min-1 for sulfite and 1000 M-1 min-1 for dithiothreitol. The 6-SCN-flavin binds tightly to riboflavin-binding protein as the riboflavin derivative, to apoflavodoxin, apo-lactate oxidase, and apo-Old Yellow Enzyme as the FMN derivative, and to apo-D-amino acid oxidase as the FAD derivative. The riboflavin-binding protein derivative is inaccessible to dithiothreitol attack, and the lactate oxidase and D-amino acid oxidase derivatives show only limited accessibility. However, the flavodoxin and Old Yellow Enzyme derivatives react readily with dithiothreitol, indicating that the flavin 6-position is exposed to solvent in these proteins. The lactate oxidase and D-amino acid oxidase derivatives convert slowly but spontaneously to the 6-mercaptoflavin enzyme forms in the absence of any added thiol, indicating the presence of a thiol residue in the flavin binding site of these proteins. The reaction rates have been investigated of 6-mercaptoflavins with iodoacetamide, N-ethylmaleimide, methyl methanethiosulfonate, H2O2, and m-chloroperbenzoate, in both the free and protein-bound state. The results confirm the conclusions drawn from the studies with 6-SCN-flavins described above and from 6-N3-flavins [Massey, V., Ghisla, S., & Yagi, K. (1986) Biochemistry (preceding paper in this issue)]. The spectral properties of the protein-bound 6-mercaptoflavin vary widely among the five proteins studied and show stabilization of the neutral flavin with flavodoxin and riboflavin-binding protein and of the anionic species by Old Yellow Enzyme, lactate oxidase, and D-amino acid oxidase. In the case of the latter two enzymes, the stabilization appears to be due to interaction of the negatively charged flavin with a positively charged protein residue located near the flavin pyrimidine ring. This positively charged residue appears to be responsible also for the strong stabilization of the two-electron oxidation state of the mercaptoflavin as the 6-S-oxide. With the other flavoproteins studied this oxidation level is stabilized as the 6-sulfenic acid or 6-sulfenate.

The 13C-NMR spectra of the reaction intermediates of D-amino acid oxidase (DAO) were measured with DAO reconstituted with FAD in which the 2-, 4-, 4a-, and 10a-positions of the isoalloxazine moiety were selectively 13C-enriched. The reaction intermediates used include charge-transfer complexes of the oxidized DAO with substrate intermediates and those of the reduced enzyme with substrate intermediates. For the former type of complex, the reaction intermediates with beta-cyano-D-alanine (D-BCNA) and D-proline were used, while for the latter the purple intermediates with D-alanine and D-proline were chosen. The 13C-resonances of 2-13C in the reaction intermediates with D-BCNA and D-proline were downfield-shifted by about 1 ppm relative to the free oxidized DAO. The 4-13C signal for the DAO-D-BCNA intermediate was observed at 1.2 ppm upfield from that of the oxidized DAO, though that for DAO-D-proline intermediate showed no shift. These results suggest modulation of the hydrogen bondings at C(2) = 0 and/or C(4) = 0 in these reaction intermediates. Comparison of the 13C-resonances of reduced DAO with those of free reduced FMN in the neutral and anionic forms indicate that FAD in reduced DAO is in the anionic reduced form. The 4a-13C resonance of reduced DAO is upfield-shifted by about 3 ppm from that of free reduced anionic FMN. Comparison of the 13C-resonances for the purple intermediates with those of reduced FMN and reduced DAO indicate unequivocally that FAD in the purple intermediate is in the anionic reduced state. The 4a-13C resonances for the purple intermediates were substantially upfield-shifted (by 2.4 ppm with D-alanine and 1.9 ppm with D-proline) relative to reduced DAO. This indicates that the electron density, and hence the nucleophilicity, of the 4a-carbon is elevated in the purple intermediate relative to free reduced DAO. This leads to a model in which the oxidative half reaction proceeds via the reaction of molecular oxygen at the 4a-position of the reduced FAD in the purple intermediate. This provides a rational molecular basis for the oxidative half reaction by way of the purple intermediate prior to product release rather than by way of free reduced enzyme after product release.

Using 8-demethyl-8-hydroxy-5-deaza-5-carba analogues of the appropriate flavin nucleotides, we determined the stereochemistry of interaction between coenzyme and substrate for several flavoproteins. The enzymes were D-amino acid oxidase, L-lactate oxidase, and D-lactate dehydrogenase, all three of which interact with pyruvate, as well as cyclohexanone monooxygenase and 2-methyl-3-hydroxypyridine-5-carboxylic acid oxygenase, which were both probed with nicotinamide nucleotides. L-Lactate oxidase and D-lactate dehydrogenase used the si face of the modified flavin ring while the other three enzymes showed re-side specificity. This selection of flavoenzymes includes FAD- and FMN-dependent enzymes, enzymes that follow a carbanion mechanism, and others that have hydride transfer as an integral part of their reaction pathway.

Resonance Raman (RR) spectra of the complex of anionic semiquinoid D-amino acid oxidase (DAO) with picolinate in H2O and D2O were observed in the 300-1,750 cm-1 region. RR spectra were also measured for the complex of the semiquinoid enzyme reconstituted with isotopically labeled FAD's, i.e., [4a-13C]-, [4,10a-13C2]-, [2-13C]-, [5-15N]-, and [1,3-15N2]-FAD. On the basis of the isotope effects, tentative assignments of the observed bands of the anionic semiquinoid flavin were made. The spectra differ from those of oxidized, neutral semiquinoid, and anionic reduced flavins previously reported. The 1,602 cm-1 band was not shifted for any FAD labeled in ring II and/or ring III and was assigned to a ring I mode. The 1,516 cm-1 band underwent an isotopic shift upon [4a-13C]- or [4,10a-13C2]-labeling. The band was assigned to the mode containing C(4a)-C(10a) stretching. The 1,331 and 1,292 cm-1 bands shifted upon [4a-13C]- or [5-15N]-labeling and were assigned to the modes containing C(4a)-N(5) stretching. The 1,217 and 1,188 cm-1 bands were assigned to the skeletal vibrations of ring III coupled with the N(3)-H bending mode. The RR spectrum of the complex of anionic semiquinoid DAO with alpha-iminopropionate or N-methyl-alpha-iminopropionate was essentially identical with that of the complex with picolinate.

L-Pipecolic acid oxidation was studied in the rabbit and cynomolgus monkey. Tissue homogenates from both species incubated with L-[2,3,4,5,6-3H]pipecolic acid produced a single radioactive product identified as alpha-aminoadipic acid. In the rabbit, L-pipecolic acid oxidation was greatest in kidney cortex with progressively lesser specific activities in liver, heart, and brain. When rabbit kidney cortex was fractionated by differential centrifugation or on Percoll gradients, activity paralleled that of the mitochondrial marker, glutamate dehydrogenase. In sonicated mitochondria, 92% of the activity was in the soluble fraction. Activity was inhibited by both rotenone and antimycin A and was maximal when FAD, phenazine ethosulfate, and glycerol were included in the assay; Km,app was 0.74 +/- 0.16 mM. Nipecotic acid, piperidine, and cis-2,4-piperidine dicarboxylic acid did not inhibit L-pipecolic acid oxidation, while L-proline had a Ki greater than or equal to 10 mM. D-Alanine and kojic acid, substrate and inhibitor of D-amino acid oxidase, respectively, were also not inhibitory. When monkey kidney cortex was fractionated on Percoll gradients, L-pipecolic acid oxidation activity paralleled that of the peroxisomal marker, catalase. After organellar subfractionation, the activity was membrane-associated and maximal at pH 8.5; Km,app was 4.22 +/- 0.30 mM. L-Pipecolic acid oxidation produced hydrogen peroxide, suggesting involvement of an oxidase in alpha-aminoadipic acid formation. Antimycin A did not inhibit the reaction. No specific cofactor requirements were identified and phenazine ethosulfate inhibited the reaction. D-Pipecolic acid, L-proline, and the other compounds cited above did not significantly inhibit the activity.

The chlorination of the flavoenzyme D-amino acid oxidase (EC 1.4.3.3, from hog kidney) by N-chloro-D-leucine, which specifically slows flavin reduction by a factor of 2 x 10(3), has been studied with respect to the site and mechanism of chlorination and the chlorinated enzyme has been extensively characterized. Our major results are as follows: 1. The oxidized holoenzyme (E0) incorporates 2 eq of 36Cl/flavin site from D-[N-36Cl]leucine. Evidence from amino acid and 36Cl analysis, isotopic dilution, and spectral titrations shows that the target residue is tyrosine and that this is converted to 3,5-dichlorotyrosine. The resulting decrease in basicity of this tyrosine (similar to 10(3)-fold) parallels the decrease (2 x 10(3)-fold) in the first order rate constant for flavin reduction observed with E0-Cl2 and we show that this residue satisfies all available criteria as being directly involved in the catalysis of flavin reduction. 2. Half-modified enzyme is a mixture of 0.5 E0 + 0.5 E0-Cl2 and E0-Cl is therefore chlorinated much more rapidly than E0 (kCl = 8 x 10(2) M-1S-1). Several lines of evidence show that enzyme-bound N-chloro-D-leucine is not oxidized prior to chlorination of the active site tyrosine. 3. The chlorination reaction is highly specific with respect to the structure of the chlorinating agent. Only the N-chloro derivatives of D-leucine, D-isoleucine, and D-norvaline are reactive while N-chloro derivatives of L-amino acids are tightly bound, but reversibly competitive, inhibitors which markedly perturb the electronic spectrum of enzyme-bound FAD.

Conformational difference surrounding the coenzyme, FAD, of D-amino acid oxidase (D-amino-acid:O2 oxidoreductase (deaminating), EC 1.4.3.3) between its monomeric and dimeric forms were examined by observing fluorescence of FAD. The fluorescence lifetimes of the coenzyme was measured directly with a mode-locked Nd:YAG laser and a streak camera in picosecond region. The values of lifetime of FAD fluorescence in the monomer and dimer were 130 +/- 20 ps and 40 +/- 10 ps, respectively. The relative quantum yield of the fluorescence of FAD combined with the protein to that of free FAD depended on the concentration of the enzyme; it was higher at lower concentration. Comparing the lifetime with relative quantum yield of FAD combined with the protein, it is concluded that the fluorescence is quenched mostly by a dynamic process. These results indicate that the distance between the isoalloxazine nucleus and a quencher is nearer in the dimer than in the monomer.

The effect of alcohols on the spectral properties of riboflavin derivatives in non-polar solvent was studied by various spectroscopic methods in order to support the view point that alcohol may directly interact with the isoalloxazine moiety of FAD and enhance the catalytic activity of D-amino acid oxidase (DAAO). The most likely association complex between alcohol and riboflavin is 1 : 1 stoichiometric complex through the 3-N imino and the 2-C carbonyl groups of the isoalloxazine ring and the hydroxyl group of alcohols. It appears that methanol has a larger association constant than any other alcohols, and the association constant decreases with the increase in carbon number and with the steric requirement of the alkyl group of alcohols.

Given that the oxidation of nitroethane by D-amino acid oxidase proceeds through a transient carbinolamine adduct at the N5 position of the active-site FAD cofactor (Porter, D. J. T., Voet, J. G., and Bright, H. J. (1973) J. Biol. Chem. 248, 4400-4416), it follows that 1-chloro-1-nitroethane should generate a stable amide at N5 and thereby function as a suicide inactivator of this enzyme. This hypothesis was validated as follows. 1-Chloro-1-nitroethane, as the nitronate ion (pKa = 7.0), inactivated D-amino acid oxidase completely with a Km value of 2 mM and a maximum rate of 0.02 s-1. The chloro and nitro groups were quantitatively recovered as free Cl- and NO2(-) after the enzyme was inactivated by 1.5 flavin equivalents of 1-chloro-1-nitroethane. Inactivation did not require O2 and was accompanied by bleaching of the flavin under both anaerobic and aerobic conditions. The modified coenzyme of the inactivated enzyme was identified as N5-acetyl-1,5-dihydro FAD. The enzyme catalyzes the oxidation of 1-chloro-1-nitroethane to acetate approximately 0.5 times as rapidly as the enzyme catalyzes suicide inactivation. The transient intermediate which is common to both the inactivation and oxidation pathways must be N5-(1-X-1-hydroxyethyl)-1,5-dihydro FAD, where X = nitro or chloro.
