lüll Substrate activation by iron superoxo intermediates van der Donk WA; Krebs C; Bollinger JM JrCurr Opin Struct Biol 2010[Dec]; 20 (6): 673-83A growing number of non-heme-iron oxygenases and oxidases catalyze reactions for which the well-established mechanistic paradigm involving a single C-H-bond-cleaving intermediate of the Fe(IV)-oxo (ferryl) type [1(*)] is insufficient to explain the chemistry. It is becoming clear that, in several of these cases, Fe(III)-superoxide complexes formed by simple addition of O(2) to the reduced [Fe(II)] cofactor initiate substrate oxidation by abstracting hydrogen [2,3(*)]. This substrate-oxidizing entry route into high-valent-iron intermediates makes possible an array of complex and elegant oxidation reactions without the consumption of valuable reducing equivalents. Examples of this novel mechanistic strategy are discussed with the goal of bringing forth unifying principles.|Animals[MESH]|Enzyme Activation[MESH]|Iron/*metabolism[MESH]|Oxidoreductases/chemistry/*metabolism[MESH]|Superoxides/*metabolism[MESH] |
