  • PubMed Abstract: 

    Microbial nitrite reductases are denitrifying enzymes that are a major component of the global nitrogen cycle. Multiple structures measured from one crystal (MSOX data) of copper nitrite reductase at 240 K, together with molecular-dynamics simulations, have revealed protein dynamics at the type 2 copper site that are significant for its catalytic properties and for the entry and exit of solvent or ligands to and from the active site. Molecular-dynamics simulations were performed using different protonation states of the key catalytic residues (Asp CAT and His CAT ) involved in the nitrite-reduction mechanism of this enzyme. Taken together, the crystal structures and simulations show that the Asp CAT protonation state strongly influences the active-site solvent accessibility, while the dynamics of the active-site 'capping residue' (Ile CAT ), a determinant of ligand binding, are influenced both by temperature and by the protonation state of Asp CAT . A previously unobserved conformation of Ile CAT is seen in the elevated temperature series compared with 100 K structures. DFT calculations also show that the loss of a bound water ligand at the active site during the MSOX series is consistent with reduction of the type 2 Cu atom.
