Abstract
The conserved residues His-162 and Arg-269 of the flavoprotein p-hydroxybenzoate hydroxylase (EC 1.14.13.2) are located at the entrance of the interdomain cleft that leads toward the active site. To study their putative role in NADPH binding, His-162 and Arg-269 were selectively changed by site-specific mutagenesis. The catalytic properties of H162R, H162Y, and R269K were similar to the wild-type enzyme. However, less conservative His-162 and Arg-269 replacements strongly impaired NADPH binding without affecting the conformation of the flavin ring and the efficiency of substrate hydroxylation. The crystal structures of H162R and R269T in complex with 4-hydroxybenzoate were solved at 3.0 and 2.0 A resolution, respectively. Both structures are virtually indistinguishable from the wild-type enzyme-substrate complex except for the substituted side chains. In contrast to wild-type p-hydroxybenzoate hydroxylase, H162R is not inactivated by diethyl pyrocarbonate. NADPH protects wild-type p-hydroxybenzoate hydroxylase from diethylpyrocarbonate inactivation, suggesting that His-162 is involved in NADPH binding. Based on these results and GRID calculations we propose that the side chains of His-162 and Arg-269 interact with the pyrophosphate moiety of NADPH. An interdomain binding mode for NADPH is proposed which takes a novel sequence motif (Eppink, M. H. M., Schreuder, H. A., and van Berkel, W. J. H. (1997) Protein Sci. 6, 2454-2458) into account.

Abstract
Two enzymes possessing collagenolytic activity were isolated from the hepatopancreas of crab Paralithodes camtschatica by ammonium sulfate fractionation and DEAE-Sepharose chromatography. It was shown that the specific activities of proteases A and C toward insoluble collagen were equal to 400 and 300 Mandl units/mg protein, respectively. The mol. wt of homogenous proteases A and C determined by gradient polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis in the presence of SDS and 2-mercaptoethanol were equal to 30 and 24 kDa, respectively. The isoelectric point values for the enzymes were determined as 2.5 and 2.9. Both enzymes lack carbohydrates. The amino acid compositions of two crab proteases were measured. The optimal conditions for the enzyme catalysis and the catalytic constants for collagenolytic proteases A and C with respect to Bz-Arg-pNA and Bz-Tyr-OEt have been determined. Inhibition data led to classification of the purified enzymes as serine proteases.

Abstract
The gene encoding p-hydroxybenzoate hydroxylase from Pseudomonas fluorescens was cloned in Escherichia coli to provide DNA for mutagenesis studies on the protein product. A plasmid containing a 1.65-kbp insert of P. fluorescens chromosomal DNA was obtained and its nucleotide sequence determined. The DNA-derived amino acid sequence agrees completely with the chemically determined amino acid sequence of the isolated protein. The enzyme is strongly expressed under influence of the vector-encoded lac promotor and is purified to homogeneity in a simple three-step procedure. The relation between substrate binding, the effector role of substrate and hydroxylation efficiency was studied by use of site-directed mutagenesis. Arg214, in ion-pair interaction with the carboxy moiety of p-hydroxybenzoate, was replaced with Lys, Gln and Ala, respectively. The affinity of the free enzymes for NADPH is unchanged, whereas the affinity for the aromatic substrate is strongly decreased. For enzymes Arg214-->Ala and Arg214-->Gln, the effector role of substrate is lost. For enzyme Arg214-->Lys, binding of p-hydroxybenzoate highly stimulates the rate of flavin reduction. In the presence of substrate or substrate analogues, the reduced enzyme Arg214-->Lys fails to stabilize the 4 alpha-hydroperoxyflavin intermediate, essential for efficient hydroxylation. Like the wild-type, enzyme Arg214-->Lys is susceptible to substrate inhibition. From spectral and kinetic results it is suggested that secondary binding of the substrate occurs at the re side of the flavin, where the nicotinamide moiety of NADPH is supposed to bind.

Abstract
Phenol hydroxylase was inactivated by the arginine reagents 2,3-butanedione, 1,2-cyclohexanedione, and phenylglyoxal. The cosubstrate NADPH, as well as NADPH+ and several analogues thereof, protected the enzyme against inactivation. Phenol did not protect the activity against any of the reagents used, nor did modification by 2,3-butanedione affect the binding of phenol. We propose the presence of arginyl residues in the binding sites for the adenosine phosphate part of NADPH.

Abstract
3-Hydroxybenzoic acid-6-hydroxylase from Micrococcus sp. was purified to homogeneity in a single step using the substrate-mediated interaction of the enzyme with blue-Sepharose. The enzyme was bound to the affinity matrix in the presence of 3-hydroxybenzoic acid and was eluted in its absence. The molecular weight of the purified enzyme is 70,000 with no subunit structure. The flavoenzyme required the exogenous addition of FAD for its complete activity and had a strict preference for NADH over NADPH. The activity of the enzyme was drastically inhibited by Cu2+ and Hg2+ and the inhibition was reversed by thiol reagents.

Abstract
An alternative plotting method is described by which microscopic inhibition rate constants can be determined by following the substrate reaction in the presence of the irreversible inhibitor. Not only does this method keep the advantage of Tsou's original method (Tsou, 1965a. Acta Biochem. biophys. Sin. 5, 1028-1032; 1965b. Acta Biochem. biophys. Sin 5, 409-417), but also is suitable for the cases where the consumption of substrate and accumulation of product must be taken into account.

Abstract
Some years ago, a systematic study on the kinetics of irreversible modification of enzyme activity was presented by Tsou (1988, Adv. Enzymol. Relat. Areas molec. Biol. 61, 381-436). This paper presents a discussion of the theoretical aspects of Tsou's method for the determination of the rate constants for the irreversible modification reaction. Range of validity for the kinetic equations of substrate reaction in the presence of the modifier is discussed quantitatively. The expressions of A, B, v* and [P]infinity for any enzyme catalyzed reaction mechanism are derived.

Abstract
Using synchrotron radiation, the X-ray diffraction intensities of crystals of p-hydroxy-benzoate hydroxylase, complexed with the substrate p-hydroxybenzoate, were measured to a resolution of 1.9 A. Restrained least-squares refinement alternated with rebuilding in electron density maps yielded an atom model of the enzyme-substrate complex with a crystallographic R-factor of 15.6% for 31,148 reflections between 6.0 and 1.9 A. A total of 330 solvent molecules was located. In the final model, only three residues have deviating phi-psi angle combinations. One of them, the active site residue Arg44, has a well-defined electron density and may be strained to adopt this conformation for efficient catalysis. The mode of binding of FAD is distinctly different for the different components of the coenzyme. The adenine ring is engaged in three water-mediated hydrogen bonds with the protein, while making only one direct hydrogen bond with the enzyme. The pyrophosphate moiety makes five water-mediated versus three direct hydrogen bonds. The ribityl and ribose moieties make only direct hydrogen bonds, in all cases, except one, with side-chain atoms. The isoalloxazine ring also makes only direct hydrogen bonds, but virtually only with main-chain atoms. The conformation of FAD in p-hydroxybenzoate hydroxylase is strikingly similar to that in glutathione reductase, while the riboflavin-binding parts of these two enzymes have no structural similarity at all. The refined 1.9 A structure of the p-hydroxybenzoate hydroxylase-substrate complex was the basis of further refinement of the 2.3 A structure of the enzyme-product complex. The result was a final R-factor of 16.7% for 14,339 reflections between 6.0 and 2.3 A and an improved geometry. Comparison between the complexes indicated only small differences in the active site region, where the product molecule is rotated by 14 degrees compared with the substrate in the enzyme-substrate complex. During the refinements of the enzyme-substrate and enzyme-product complexes, the flavin ring was allowed to bend or twist by imposing planarity restraints on the benzene and pyrimidine ring, but not on the flavin ring as a whole. The observed angle between the benzene ring and the pyrimidine ring was 10 degrees for the enzyme-substrate complex and 19 degrees for the enzyme-product complex. Because of the high temperature factors of the flavin ring in the enzyme-product complex, the latter value should be treated with caution. Six out of eight peptide residues near the flavin ring are oriented with their nitrogen atom pointing towards the ring.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)

Abstract
The free and complexed flavoprotein, p-hydroxybenzoate hydroxylase, was studied by light-absorption, circular-dichroism and fluorescence techniques as a function of the pH. The following compounds served as ligands for the enzyme: p-hydroxybenzoate, p-fluorobenzoate, benzoate, p-aminobenzoate and tetrafluoro-p-hydroxybenzoate. Depending on the technique used, the various ligands exhibit pH-dependent physical properties and dissociation constants. The data can be fitted with pKa values in the range 7.7-7.9. It is suggested that this pKa value belongs to a tyrosine residue in the active center of the enzyme. This assignment is supported by published data and additional experiments.

Abstract
p-Hydroxybenzoate hydroxylase from Pseudomonas fluorescens was covalently modified by the nucleotide analog 5'-(p-fluorosulfonylbenzoyl)-adenosine in the presence of 20% dimethylsulfoxide. The inactivation reaction is pH-dependent and does not obey pseudo-first-order kinetics, due to spontaneous hydrolysis of the reagent. The kinetic data further indicate that a weak, reversible enzyme-inhibitor complex is an intermediate in the inactivation reaction and that only one amino acid residue is responsible for the loss of activity. The inactivation is strongly inhibited by NADPH and 2',5'ADP. Steady-state kinetics and 2',5'ADP bioaffinity chromatography of the modified enzyme suggest that the essential residue is not directly involved in NADPH binding. Sequence studies show that Tyr-38 is the main residue protected from modification in the presence of NADPH. From crystallographic studies it is known that the hydroxyl group of Tyr-38 is 1.84 nm away from the active site. Model-building studies using computer graphics show that this distance can be accommodated when FSO2BzAdo binds in an extended conformation with the sulfonylbenzoyl portion in an orientation different from the nicotin-amide ring of NADPH.

Abstract
Highly purified p-hydroxybenzoate hydroxylase from Pseudomonas fluorescens can be separated into at least five fractions by anion-exchange chromatography. All fractions exhibit the same specific activity and the enzyme exists mainly in the dimeric form in solution. Sodium dodecyl sulfate/polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of a mixture of the different fractions reveals two apparent forms of enzyme molecules, while isoelectric focusing experiments, on the other hand, reveal six apparently different forms of enzyme molecules. It is shown that the different forms of enzyme molecules are due to the (partial) oxidation of Cys-116 in the sequence of the enzyme. This interpretation of the data is supported by kinetic measurements of the formation of hybrid dimeric molecules monitored by fast protein liquid chromatography, using purified enzyme containing Cys-116 either in the native and or the fully oxidized (sulfonic acid) state. By chemical modification studies using maleimide derivatives, 5,5'-dithiobis(2-nitrobenzoate) and H2O2, it is shown that sulfenic, sulfinic and sulfonic acid derivatives of Cys-116 are products of oxidation. The results are briefly discussed with respect to the possibility that this isolation artifact might also be partially responsible for the appearance of multiple forms of enzyme molecules in other biochemical preparations.
