hercynine + gamma-L-glutamyl-L-cysteine + O2 = gamma-L-glutamyl-S-(hercyn-2-yl)-L-cysteine S-oxide + H2O
catalytic mechanism in which C-S bond formation is initiated by an iron(III)-complexed thiyl radical attacking the imidazole ring of N-alpha-trimethyl histidine, proposed mechanism for EgtB-catalyzed C-S bond formation and sulfoxidation, overview
hercynine + gamma-L-glutamyl-L-cysteine + O2 = gamma-L-glutamyl-S-(hercyn-2-yl)-L-cysteine S-oxide + H2O
EgtB contains a conserved tyrosine residue that reacts via proton-coupled electron transfer with the iron(III)-superoxo species and creates an iron(III)-hydroperoxo intermediate, thereby preventing the possible thiolate dioxygenation side reaction. The nucleophilic C-S bond-formation step happens subsequently concomitant to relay of the proton of the iron(II)-hydroperoxo back to Tyr377. This is the rate-determining step in the reaction cycle and is followed by hydrogen-atom transfer from the CE1-H group of trimethyl histidine substrate to iron(II)-superoxo. In the final step, a quick and almost barrierless sulfoxidation leads to the sulfoxide product complexes. Quantum mechanics/molecular mechanics study of the mechanism of sulfoxide synthase enzymes as compared to cysteine dioxygenase enzymes and present pathways for both reaction channels in EgtB, reaction mechanism, overview. The active site contains the unusual Tyr157-Cys93 cross-link with a covalent bond between the two amino acid residues. It is believed this cross-link has a steric effect on the overall reaction mechanism. The fast CDO-type side reaction is prevented through a proton-coupled electron transfer from Tyr377 to iron(III)-superoxo, which enables the slower C-S bond formation to take place and blocks the sulfur dioxygenation side reaction
hercynine + gamma-L-glutamyl-L-cysteine + O2 = gamma-L-glutamyl-S-(hercyn-2-yl)-L-cysteine S-oxide + H2O
two different mechanisms are analyzed, depending on whether the sulfoxidation or the S-C bond formation takes place first. The calculations suggest that the S-O bond formation occurs first between the thiolate and the ferric superoxide, followed by homolytic O-O bond cleavage. Subsequently, proton transfer from a second-shell residue Tyr377 to the newly generated iron-oxo moiety takes place, which is followed by proton transfer from the N-alpha-trimethyl histidine imidazole to Tyr377, facilitated by two crystallographically observed water molecules. Next, the S-C bond is formed between gamma-glutamyl cysteine and N-alpha-trimethyl histidine, followed by proton transfer from the imidazole CH moiety to Tyr377, which is calculated to be the rate-limiting step for the whole reaction, with a barrier of 17.9 kcal/mol in the quintet state. Optimized structures for the second, third, and fourth steps. Detailed overview

OvoA, EC 1.14.99.52, and EgtB are related in sequence, while they are biochemically distinct
evolution
Some cyanobacteria recruited and adapted a sulfoxide synthase from a different biosynthetic pathway to make ergothioneine. Evolutionary malleability of the thiohistidine biosynthetic machinery. The sulfoxide synthase EgtB catalyzes the sulfurization of N-alpha-trimethylhistidine at the imidazole 2-position and subsequent oxidation to the S-sulfoxide. The homologous sulfoxide synthases OvoA, EC 1.14.99.52, catalyze the formation of 5-histidylcysteine sulfoxide. The stereochemistry of this sulfoxide is unknown, and cyanobacterial OvoA homologues (Egt-B(ovo)) have evolved to catalyze an EgtB-type reaction by convergent evolution. Prokaryotic EgtBs are usually monofunctional, fungal EgtBs are fused to EgtD

metabolism
biosynthesis of N-alpha-trimethyl-2-thiohistidine (ergothioneine) is a frequent trait in cyanobacteria. This sulfur compound may provide essential relief from oxidative stress related to oxygenic photosynthesis. The central steps in ergothioneine biosynthesis are catalyzed by a histidine methyltransferase and the iron-dependent sulfoxide synthase. Ergothioneine biosynthesis starts by trimethylation of the alpha-amino group of histidine. The resulting N-alpha-trimethylhistidine (TMH) is fused to either gamma-glutamylcysteine (in actinomycetes, EC 1.14.99.50) or cysteine (in fungi, EC 1.14.99.51). The sulfoxide product is converted into ergothoneine by removal of the glutamyl and cysteinyl moieties

Y377F
-
site-directed mutagenesis, the single point mutation in EgtB completely uncouples substrate consumption from sulfoxide synthase activity with the native substrates hercynine and gamma-glutamyl cysteine, with EgtB exclusively oxidizing gamma-glutamyl cysteine to the sulfinic acid. Tyr377 is hydrogen bonded to a water molecule that coordinates to the iron
D416N
site-directed mutagenesis, the mutation increases KM for gamma-glutamyl cysteine by 200fold but does not significantly change KM for N-alpha-trimethyl histidine or kcat compared to the wild-type enzyme
Y377F
site-directed mutagenesis, the mutation results in conversion of the non-heme iron-dependent sulfoxide synthase into a thiol dioxygenase, purified enzyme mutant EgtBY377F contains 0.64% equiv. of iron as inferred by a ferrozine-based colorimetric assay, and shows reduced activity compared to the wild-type enzyme
