Popis: A putrescine N -hydroxylase from Gordonia rubripertincta CWB2 (GorA), a microbial N -hydroxylating monooxygenase (NMO), specific for a range of diamines (putrescine > cadaverine > hexamethylenediamine) was identified. This NMO clustered together with some known but yet to be characterized diamine NMOs which are RhbE, from Sinorhizobium meliloti 1021; AlcA, from Bordetella bronchiseptica RB50, and DesB, from Streptomyces scabiei 87-22. It comprises 459 amino acids in length and has approximately a molecular weight of 51.4 kDa. It has been successfully cloned, overexpressed, and purified as a soluble flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD) and nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH) dependent His 10 -tagged protein using Escherichia coli as the cloning and expression host and pET16bP as vector. The NAD(P)H oxidation assay and a hydroxylation assay were used to assess its biochemical properties. The pH optimum is between the range of 7.0–8.0 in a potassium phosphate buffer. 1,4-diaminobutane (putrescine) was the best substrate concerning GorA activity. With the NADPH oxidation assay, the kinetic parameters of this enzyme showed an apparent K m and k cat of 361.6 ± 0.1 μM and 0.266 ± 0.011 s −1 , respectively, whereas the hydroxylation assay showed GorA with an apparent K m and k cat of 737.1 ± 0.1 μM and 0.210 ± 0.001 s −1 . These activity data were obtained of kinetic experiments from fixing FAD and NADPH and varying the concentration of 1,4-diaminobutane. Thus this is the first diamine N -hydroxylating monooxygenase characterized with a physiological role in siderophore biosynthesis.
