SYSTEMATIC NAME
IUBMB Comments
(3Z)-phycocyanobilin:ferredoxin oxidoreductase
Catalyses the four-electron reduction of biliverdin IXalpha (2-electron reduction at both the A and D rings). Reaction proceeds via an isolatable 2-electron intermediate, 181,182-dihydrobiliverdin. Flavodoxins can be used instead of ferredoxin. The direct conversion of biliverdin IXalpha (BV) to (3Z)-phycocyanolbilin (PCB) in the cyanobacteria Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803, Anabaena sp. PCC7120 and Nostoc punctiforme is in contrast to the proposed pathways of PCB biosynthesis in the red alga Cyanidium caldarium, which involves (3Z)-phycoerythrobilin (PEB) as an intermediate [2] and in the green alga Mesotaenium caldariorum, in which PCB is an isolable intermediate.

high-field electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy of frozen solutions and single crystals of the one-electron reduced protein-substrate complex of mutant D102N. Spectra reveal a biliverdin radical with a very narrow g tensor. This g tensor is consistent with a biliverdin radical where the carbonyl oxygen atoms on both the A and the D pyrrole rings are protonated

-
substrate-free form of PcyA by the hanging-drop vapor-diffusion method, at 2.5 A resolution, the side-chain of Asp105 is located at a site that would be underneath the biliverdin IXa A-ring in the PcyA-biliverdin IXa complex and hydrogen-bonded with His88, biliverdin IXa may be protonated by a mechanism involving conformational changes of these two residues before reduction
-
quantum mechanical approaches show that the propensity of biliverdin to bind PcyA is dominated by electrostatic interactions, especially related to residues Arg149 and Lys221, while H-bonds are formed with His88 and Ser114. The antioxidant activity is dependent on the intramolecular noncovalent bond interactions. The surrounding residues increase the antioxidant character of biliverdin by 2 eV

site-directed mutagenesis, substrate-binding structure compared to the wild-type enzyme. Overall folds and the binding sites of the U-shaped substrates of all three complexes are similar with wild-type PcyABV, the orientation of the Glu76 side chain, which is in close contact with the exo-vinyl group in PcyA-biliverdin IXalpha, is rotated away from the bilin D-ring. The local structures around the A-rings in the three complexes, which all retain the ability to reduce the A-ring of their bound pigments, are nearly identical with that of wild-type PcyA-biliverdin IXalpha

construction of a plasmid containing genes of apo-allophycocyanin alpha-subunit without chromophore and chromophore synthetases HO1, i.e. ferredoxin-dependent heme oxygenase, and PcyA, i.e. phycocyanobilin:ferredoxin oxidoreductase, and expression in Escherichia coli. Holo-allophycocyanin, i.e. allophycocyanin alpha-subunit with chromophore, can be synthesized by autocatalysis in Escherichia coli. Recombinant holo-allophycocyanin alpha-subunit shows the same spectral and fluorescent properties as phycocyanin and serves as a good substitute for native phycocyanin for fluorescent tagging. Recombinant allophycocyanin alpha-subunit can inhibit hydroxyl and peroxyl radicals more strongly than holo-allophycocyanin alpha-subunit and native allophycocyanin
