Chlorothalonil (2,4,5,6-tetrachloroisophthalonitrile; TPN) is an environmentally persistent fungicide that sees heavy use in the USA and is highly toxic to aquatic species and birds, as well as a probable human carcinogen. The chlorothalonil dehalogenase from Pseudomonas sp. CTN-3 (Chd, UniProtKB C9EBR5) degrades TPN to its less toxic 4-OH-TPN analog making it an exciting candidate for the development of a bioremediation process for TPN; however, little is currently known about its catalytic mechanism. Therefore, an active site residue histidine-114 (His114) which forms a hydrogen bond with the Zn(II)-bound water/hydroxide and has been suggested to be the active site acid/base, was substituted by an Ala residue. Surprisingly, ChdH114A exhibited catalytic activity with a kcat value of 1.07 s−1, ~ 5% of wild-type (WT) Chd, and a KM of 32 µM. Thus, His114 is catalytically important but not essential. The electronic and structural aspects of the WT Chd and ChdH114A active sites were examined using UV–Vis and EPR spectroscopy on the catalytically competent Co(II)-substituted enzyme as well as all-atomistic molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. Combination of these data suggest His114 can quickly and reversibly move nearly 2 Å between one conformation that facilitates catalysis and another that enables product egress and active site recharge. In light of experimental and computational data on ChdH114A, Asn216 appears to play a role in substrate binding and preorganization of the transition-state while Asp116 likely facilitates the deprotonation of the Zn(II)-bound water in the absence of His114. Based on these data, an updated proposed catalytic mechanism for Chd is presented. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
