ABSTRACTThe amidohydrolase superfamily has remarkable functional diversity, with considerable structural and functional annotation of known sequences. In microbes, the recent evolution of several members of this family to catalyze the breakdown of environmental xenobiotics is not well understood. An evolutionary transition from binuclear to mononuclear metal ion coordination at the active sites of these enzymes could produce large functional changes such as those observed in nature, but there are few clear examples available to support this hypothesis. To investigate the role of binuclear-mononuclear active-site transitions in the evolution of new function in this superfamily, we have characterized two recently evolved enzymes that catalyze the hydrolysis of the synthetic herbicides molinate (MolA) and phenylurea (PuhB). In this work, the crystal structures, mutagenesis, metal ion analysis, and enzyme kinetics of both MolA and PuhB establish that these enzymes utilize a mononuclear active site. However, bioinformatics and structural comparisons reveal that the closest putative ancestor of these enzymes had a binuclear active site, indicating that a binuclear-mononuclear transition has occurred. These proteins may represent examples of evolution modifying the characteristics of existing catalysts to satisfy new requirements, specifically, metal ion rearrangement leading to large leaps in activity that would not otherwise be possible.

The complex nickel(II) cation of the bis-diazine macrocycle 3,4,7,9,9,14,14,16-octamethyl-1,2,5,6,10,13-hexaazacyclohexadeca-2,4,6,16-tetraene, omht, is formed by reaction of the complex of 3,3,9,9-tetramethyl-5,8-diazadodecane-2,11-dione dihydrazone with butane-2,3-dione, and the complex of the 7,9,9,14,14,16-hexamethyl-3,4-diphenyl homologue, bzht, is similarly prepared by reaction with 1,2- diphenylethane-1,2-dione. The cation [Cu(hmtd)]2+ is formed by metal ion substitution for a precursor of the nickel(II) cation. Compounds of the nickel(II) cations occur as singlet ground state perchlorate salts, or as triplet ground state octahedral compounds with additional ligands, e.g. [Ni(omht)(NCS)2], [{Ni(omht)(N3)}2](ClO4)2 and [Ni(omht)(en)] (ClO4)2. The singlet ground state [Ni(omht)]2+ cation in dimethyl sulfoxide converts into a triplet ground state species with first-order rate constant of 2.1(2)×10-6 s-1 at 25°C, 5.1(2)×10-5 s-1 at 50°C. The cations are slowly hydrolysed by acid, and pseudo-first-order rate constants in 2 mol l-1 HCl/NaCl for hydrolysis of [Ni(omht)]2+ and [Cu(omht)]2+ at 25° and 50°C are reported. These are of the order of 10-5 (25°C), 10-4(50°C) s-1, with a non-linear dependence on [H+], and with the reactions faster for the nickel(II) cation.

The hydrolysis of a number of nitroactivated esters and amides has been studied in the presence of copper-containing metallomicelles at neutral pH. The relative rates of hydrolysis in the pure metallomicelle and in co-micelles with either cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (ctab) or Triton X-100 depends on the hydrophobicity of the substrate and whether it is completely solubilized by the copper micelle. Thus it depends on the concentration of the copper micelle. At low concentrations of copper micelle (0.2 mM) where the substrate is incompletely solubilized, the reaction is faster when 2 mM ctab is added. At higher concentrations (>0.6 mM) where the substrate may be almost completely solubilized by the copper micelle, the reaction is slower when 2 mM ctab is added. For ester hydrolysis the presence of either a carboxylic acid group or a heterocyclic nitrogen atom close to the reaction centre resulted in much larger catalysis by the metallomicelle than for model compounds without these additional groups. It is postulated that these groups coordinate with the metal ion and thus present the reaction centre close to a metal-bound hydroxyl resulting in a significant increase in the rate of bond formation, which is the rate-determining step for ester hydrolysis. For amide hydrolysis the presence of a carboxyl group ortho to the reaction centre did not lead to larger catalysis by the copper micelle than for the compound without this group. This difference is attributed to the different rate-determining steps for amide and for ester hydrolysis. Keywords: metallomicelles, ester and amide hydrolysis.

The kinetics of methanolysis of acetyl imidazole (1) and acetyl pyrazole (2) have been investigated under anhydrous conditions in the presence of Zn(ClO4)2, Co(ClO4)2, and HClO4 at 25°C. In all cases, the plots of the pseudo-first-order rate constant for methanolysis (kobs) vs. [metal ion] or [HClO4] show saturation behavior indicative of equilibrium binding of the M2+ or H+ to the amide. Relative to the spontaneous methanolysis rate constant (ko), the catalytic rate constant obtained at saturation, kcat, is larger for metal-ion catalysis than for H+ catalysis. The (kcatH+/ko) ratio is 10.7 and 1.25 for 1 and 2, respectively, while the (kcatM2+/ko) for these divalent metals varies from 150-fold for 1 to between 700 and 5700-fold for 2. By contrast, in water, proton is far more effective at promoting the hydrolysis of 1 than are metals, the aqueous (kcatH+/ko) ratio being 560, while the (kcatZn2+ /ko) and (kcatNi2+/ko) ratios are 15 and 3.2, respectively.Key words: methanolysis, kinetics, metal-ion catalysis, acetyl imidazole, acetyl pyrazole.
