[FeFe]-hydrogenase maturation.

Abstract:

:Hydrogenases are metalloenzymes that catalyze the reversible reduction of protons at unusual metal centers. This Current Topic discusses recent advances in elucidating the steps involved in the biosynthesis of the complex metal cluster at the [FeFe]-hydrogenase (HydA) active site, known as the H-cluster. The H-cluster is composed of a 2Fe subcluster that is anchored within the active site by a bridging cysteine thiolate to a [4Fe-4S] cubane. The 2Fe subcluster contains carbon monoxide, cyanide, and bridging dithiolate ligands. H-cluster biosynthesis is now understood to occur stepwise; standard iron-sulfur cluster assembly machinery builds the [4Fe-4S] cubane of the H-cluster, while three specific maturase enzymes known as HydE, HydF, and HydG assemble the 2Fe subcluster. HydE and HydG are both radical S-adenosylmethionine enzymes that interact with an iron-sulfur cluster binding GTPase scaffold, HydF, during the construction of the 2Fe subcluster moiety. In an unprecedented biochemical reaction, HydG cleaves tyrosine and decomposes the resulting dehydroglycine into carbon monoxide and cyanide ligands. The role of HydE in the biosynthetic pathway remains undefined, although it is hypothesized to be critical for the synthesis of the bridging dithiolate. HydF is the site where the complete 2Fe subcluster is formed and ultimately delivered to the immature hydrogenase protein in the final step of [FeFe]-hydrogenase maturation. This work addresses the roles of and interactions among HydE, HydF, HydG, and HydA in the formation of the mature [FeFe]-hydrogenase.
