Abstract
Quinohemoprotein amine dehydrogenase (AMDH) was purified and crystallized from the soluble fraction of Pseudomonas putida IFO 15366 grown on n-butylamine medium. AMDH gave a single component in analytical ultracentrifugation showing an intrinsic sedimentation coefficient of 5.8s. AMDH showed a typical absorption spectrum of cytochrome c showing maxima at 554, 522, 420, and 320 nm in the reduced form and one peak at 410 nm, a shoulder at 350 nm, and a broad hill around 530 nm in the oxidized form. The oxidized enzyme was specifically reduced by the addition of amine substrate. AMDH was composed of three different subunits, 60, 40, and 20 kDa, with the total molecular weight of 120,000. Two moles of heme c were detected per mole of AMDH and the 60-kDa subunit was found to be the heme c-carrying subunit. By redox-cycling quinone staining, a positive reaction band corresponding to the 20-kDa subunit was detected after developed by SDS-PAGE, but the 20 kDa band was scarcely stained by conventional protein staining. Only a silver staining method was possible to detect the subunit after the protein was developed by SDS-PAGE. p-Nitrophenylhydrazine-inhibited AMDH was dissociated into subunits and the 20-kDa subunit showed an absorption maximum at 455 nm, indicating Schiff base formation between the carbonyl cofactor in AMDH and the carbonyl reagent. Thus, AMDH is different from nonheme quinoprotein methylamine dehydrogenase and aromatic amine dehydrogenase in many respects. The presence of an azurin-like blue protein was identified and purified from the same cell-free extract of P. putida as AMDH was purified. The blue protein was reduced specifically during AMDH reaction, suggesting that the blue protein is the direct electron acceptor in amine oxidation. The amine oxidation system was reconstituted successfully only by AMDH, the blue protein, and the cytoplasmic membranes of the organism. The function of the 40-kDa subunit is unknown at the moment. The properties of AMDH were compared with other bacterial amine dehydrogenases so far reported.

Abstract
Histamine dehydrogenase from Nocardioides simplex IFO 12069 was purified to homogeneity. The enzyme had a molecular mass of 170 kDa and was suggested to be a dimer of subunits that had a molecular mass of 84 kDa. The enzyme showed highest activity toward histamine and produced ammonia in its oxidative deamination to imidazole acetaldehyde. The K(m) and V(max) values for histamine were 0.075 mM and 4.76 micromol min(-1) mg(-1), respectively. The enzyme was sensitive to the carbonyl reagent iproniazid and a structurally similar compound, tryptophan. The enzyme showed absorption maxima at 442 and 280 nm. Reduction with histamine under anaerobic conditions resulted in a different absorption maximum at 360 nm instead of 442 nm. The enzyme was most active at pH 8.5 in Tris-HCl buffer and most stable at pH 7.0 in potassium phosphate buffer. The E(1%) value of the enzyme was 8.6 at 280 nm.

Abstract
A lysozyme-osmotic shock method is described for fractionation of Alcaligenes faecalis which uses glucose to adjust osmotic strength and multiple osmotic shocks. During phenylethylamine-dependent growth, aromatic amine dehydrogenase, azurin, and a single cytochrome c were localized in the periplasm. Their induction patterns are different from those for the related quinoprotein methylamine dehydrogenase and its associated redox proteins.

Abstract
This review is concerned with the structure and function of the quinoprotein enzymes, sometimes called quinoenzymes. These have prosthetic groups containing quinones, the name thus being analogous to the flavoproteins containing flavin prosthetic groups. Pyrrolo-quinoline quinone (PQQ) is non-covalently attached, whereas tryptophan tryptophylquinone (TTQ), topaquinone (TPQ) and lysine tyrosylquinone (LTQ) are derived from amino acid residues in the backbone of the enzymes. The mechanisms of the quinoproteins are reviewed and related to their recently determined three-dimensional structures. As expected, the quinone structures in the prosthetic groups play important roles in the mechanisms. A second common feature is the presence of a catalytic base (aspartate) at the active site which initiates the reactions by abstracting a proton from the substrate, and it is likely to be involved in multiple reactions in the mechanism. A third common feature of these enzymes is that the first part of the reaction produces a reduced prosthetic group; this part of the mechanism is fairly well understood. This is followed by an oxidative phase involving electron transfer reactions which remain poorly understood. In both types of dehydrogenase (containing PQQ and TTQ), electrons must pass from the reduced prosthetic group to redox centres in a second recipient protein (or protein domain), whereas in amine oxidases (containing TPQ or LTQ), electrons must be transferred to molecular oxygen by way of a redox-active copper ion in the protein.

Abstract
An isolated 5.2-kb fragment of Methylobacterium extorquens AM1 DNA was found to contain a gene cluster involved in methylamine utilization. Analysis of polypeptides synthesized in an Escherichia coli T7 expression system showed that five genes were present. Two of the genes encoded the large and small subunits of methylamine dehydrogenase, and a third encoded amicyanin, the presumed electron acceptor for methylamine dehydrogenase, but the function of the other two genes is not known. The order on the 5.2-kb fragment was found to be large-subunit gene, the two genes of unknown function, small-subunit gene, amicyanin gene. The gene for azurin, another possible electron acceptor in methylamine oxidation, does not appear to be present within this cluster of methylamine utilization genes.

Abstract
Methylamine dehydrogenase (MADH), an alpha 2 beta 2 enzyme from numerous methylotrophic soil bacteria, contains a novel quinonoid redox prosthetic group that is covalently bound to its small beta subunit through two amino acyl residues. A comparison of the amino acid sequence deduced from the gene sequence of the small subunit for the enzyme from Methylobacterium extorquens AM1 with the published amino acid sequence obtained by the Edman degradation method, allowed the identification of the amino acyl constituents of the cofactor as two tryptophyl residues. This information was crucial for interpreting 1H and 13C nuclear magnetic resonance, and mass spectral data collected for the semicarbazide- and carboxymethyl-derivatized bis(tripeptidyl)-cofactor of MADH from bacterium W3A1. The cofactor is composed of two cross-linked tryptophyl residues. Although there are many possible isomers, only one is consistent with all the data: The first tryptophyl residue in the peptide sequence exists as an indole-6,7-dione, and is attached at its 4 position to the 2 position of the second, otherwise unmodified, indole side group. Contrary to earlier reports, the cofactor of MADH is not 2,7,9-tricarboxypyrroloquinoline quinone (PQQ), a derivative thereof, or pro-PQQ. This appears to be the only example of two cross-linked, modified amino acyl residues having a functional role in the active site of an enzyme, in the absence of other cofactors or metal ions.

Abstract
Methylomonas J is an obligate methylotroph although it is unable to grow on methane. Like Pseudomonas AM1, it produces two blue copper proteins when growing on methylamine, one of which is the recipient of electrons from the methylamine dehydrogenase. When grown on methanol, only the other blue copper protein is produced. We have determined the amino acid sequences of these blue copper proteins, and show that they are both true azurins. The sequences are clearly homologous to those of the proteins characterized from fluorescent pseudomonads and various species of Alcaligenes, and can be aligned with them and with each other without the need to postulate any internal insertions or deletions in the sequences. The iso-1 azurin, the one produced during both methanol and methylamine growth, shows 59-65% identity with these other azurins, whereas the iso-2 protein shows only 47-53% identity. The proteins show 52% identity with each other. The two functionally equivalent blue copper proteins from Pseudomonas AM1 belong to two sequence classes that are quite distinct from the true azurins. Detailed evidence for the amino acid sequences of the proteins has been deposited as Supplementary Publication SUP 50151 (23 pages) at the British Library Document Supply Centre, Boston Spa, Wetherby, West Yorkshire LS23 7BQ, U.K., from whom copies can be obtained on the terms indicated in Biochem.

Abstract
Methylamine dehydrogenase from Paracoccus denitrificans was purified to homogeneity in two steps from the periplasmic fraction of methylamine-grown cells. The enzyme exhibited a pI value of 4.3 and was composed of two 46,700-dalton subunits and two 15,500-dalton subunits. Each small subunit possessed a covalently bound pyrrolo-quinoline quinone prosthetic group. The amino acid compositions of the large and small subunits are very similar to those of other methylamine dehydrogenases which have been isolated from taxonomically different sources. The enzyme was able to catalyze the oxidation of a wide variety of primary aliphatic amines and diamines, but it did not react with secondary, tertiary, or aromatic amines. The enzyme exhibited optimal activity at pH 7.5, with Km values of 12.5 microM for methylamine and 156 microM for phenazine ethosulfate and a Vmax of 16.9 mumol/min per mg of protein. No loss of enzyme activity was observed after incubation for 48 h at pH values ranging from 3.0 to 10.5, and the enzyme was very stable to thermal denaturation. Enzyme activity and immunological detection of each subunit were only observed with cells which had been grown on methylamine as a carbon source.

Abstract
Organism 4025, an obligate methylotroph, when grown on methylamine in the presence of a high concentration of copper, contained high concentrations of methylamine dehydrogenase and two blue copper proteins, amicyanin and an azurin-type protein; these were purified to homogeneity and characterized. The methylamine dehydrogenase is a basic protein (pI 8.8) and consists of light and heavy subunits (Mr 14100 and 43000; total Mr 112000). This dehydrogenase differed slightly from other methylamine dehydrogenases in its absorption spectrum and in its lack of thermal stability. Amicyanin, the more abundant blue copper protein, had an Mr of 11500, a midpoint redox potential of 294mV at pH 7.0, and a much lower isoelectric point (pI5.3) than other amicyanins. Its absorption maximum was 620 nm (7-24 nm higher than those of other amicyanins); its absorption coefficient (at 620 nm) was 3.8 mM-1 X cm-1. The 'azurin' (6% of the blue copper protein) had an Mr of 12500, a midpoint redox potential of 323 mV and a high isoelectric point (pI 9.4). Its absorption maximum was 620 nm, the absorption coefficient (16 mM-1 X cm-1) at this wavelength being considerably greater than that of any blue copper protein described previously. The partially-purified soluble cytochromes cH and cL were similar to those of other methylotrophs. The interactions of the purified redox proteins were investigated in order to elucidate their role in methylamine oxidation. Methylamine dehydrogenase was able to donate electrons only to amicyanin, the rate of reaction being 2.04 mmol/min per mumol of methylamine dehydrogenase; this is sufficient to account for the rate of respiration in whole bacteria. The blue copper proteins were able to react rapidly with each other and with both the soluble cytochromes c.

Abstract
The g-value and linewidth of ESR spectra of methylamine dehydrogenase (primary-amine:(acceptor) oxidoreductase (deaminating) EC 1.4.99.-) and methanol dehydrogenase (alcohol:(acceptor) oxidoreductase, EC 1.1.99.8) are very similar. This similarity is also reflected in electron-nuclear double resonance (ENDOR) results, the coupling constants of two protons in one enzyme equalling those in the other. The presence of a third proton in the ENDOR spectrum of methylamine dehydrogenase suggests a different structure or a different kind of interaction which can be related to the finding that the resolved ROSTHETIC GROUP IS PROTEIN-BOUND. The bound prosthetic group has a high redox-potential, supporting the conclusion from the ESR and ENDOR results that it is a quinone derivative.
