Popis: The oxygen activating mononuclear non-heme ferrous enzymes catalyze a diverse range of chemistry yet typically maintain a common structural motif: two histidines and a carboxylate coordinating the iron center in a facial triad. A new FeII coordinating triad has been observed in two enzymes, diketone-cleaving dioxygenase, Dke1, and cysteine dioxygenase (CDO), and is composed of three histidine residues. The effect of this three-His motif in Dke1 on the geometric and electronic structure of the FeII center is explored via a combination of absorption, CD, MCD, and VTVH MCD spectroscopies and DFT calculations. This geometric and electronic structure of the three-His triad is compared to that of the classical (2-His-1-carboxylate) facial triad in the α-ketoglutarate (αKG)-dependent dioxygenases clavaminate synthase 2 (CS2) and hydroxyphenylpyruvate dioxygenase (HPPD). Comparison of the ligand fields at the FeII shows little difference between the three-His and 2-His-1-carboxylate facial triad sites. Acetylacet...
