Cytochrome P450-The Wonderful Nanomachine Revealed through Dynamic Simulations of the Catalytic Cycle.

TL;DR: This Account shows that the entrance of the substrate triggers all of the ensuing events in the catalytic cycle of CYP450, which functions "automatically" in a regulated sequence of events culminating in the production of the oxidized substrates.
Journal ArticleDOI

Molecular Dynamics and QM/MM Calculations Predict the Substrate-Induced Gating of Cytochrome P450 BM3 and the Regio- and Stereoselectivity of Fatty Acid Hydroxylation

TL;DR: The predictive power of theory and its insight can potentially be used as a partner of experiment for eventual engineering of P450 BM3 with site-selective C-H functionalization capabilities.
Journal ArticleDOI

Quantum Mechanical/Molecular Mechanical Calculated Reactivity Networks Reveal How Cytochrome P450cam and Its T252A Mutant Select Their Oxidation Pathways

TL;DR: Quantum mechanical/molecular mechanical calculations address the longstanding-question of a "second oxidant" in P450 enzymes wherein the proton-shuttle, which leads to formation of the "primary-oxidant" Compound I (Cpd I), was severed by mutating the crucial residue (in P450cam: Threonine-252-to-Alanine, hence T252A).
Journal ArticleDOI

Emergence of Function in P450-Proteins: A Combined Quantum Mechanical/Molecular Mechanical and Molecular Dynamics Study of the Reactive Species in the H2O2-Dependent Cytochrome P450SPα and Its Regio- and Enantioselective Hydroxylation of Fatty Acids

TL;DR: This work uses combined quantum mechanical/molecular mechanical and molecular dynamics simulations to investigate the mechanism and selectivity of H2O2-dependent hydroxylation of fatty acids by the P450SPα class of enzymes, revealing that function has evolved in these related metalloenzymes by strategically placing very few residues in the active site.
Journal ArticleDOI

How do Enzymes Utilize Reactive OH Radicals? Lessons from Nonheme HppE and Fenton Systems.

TL;DR: This work broadens the landscape of nonheme iron enzymes and makes a connection to Fenton chemistry, with implications on new potential biocatalysts that may harness hydroxyl radicals for C-H bond functionalizations.
