    We report the directed evolution of cytochrome P450BM3 to efficiently utilise the bacterial quorum sensing signalling molecule N‐decanoyl homoserine lactone (C10‐HSL) as an effective decoy molecule. This represents the first important step in our endeavour to develop of a self‐sufficient decoy‐molecule system in whole‐cells that only necessitates the addition of culture medium and substrate to realise the hydroxylation of non‐native substrates. Following five rounds of directed evolution, mutant P450BM3, in the presence of C10‐HSL, catalysed the hydroxylation of benzene at a rate of 475 min−1, the highest turnover rate recorded for any P450 enzyme, and achieving a 46% yield in a whole‐cell reaction system. High‐resolution X‐ray crystal structure analysis of a series of mutants narrates the directed evolution process, revealing how C10‐HSL is fixed in the binding pocket to permit binding of non‐native substrates. Finally, introduction of the C10‐HSL synthase gene ExpI into E. coli, enabled the in‐situ production of C10‐HSL, realising, for the first time, the hydroxylation of non‐native substrates without the need for the laborious synthesis and addition of decoy molecules.

    <title>ABSTRACT</title>Low-complexity (LC) domains of proteins are found in about one fifth of human proteome, and a group of LC-domains form labile cross-β polymers and liquid-like droplets. Polymers and droplets formed from LC-domains are dynamically regulated by posttranslational modifications and molecular chaperones including nuclear transport receptors. Repeat expansion in the first intron of a gene designated <italic>C9orf72</italic>, which is the most prevalent form of familial amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), causes nucleocytoplasmic transport deficit, however, the detailed mechanism remains unsolved. Here we show that the proline:arginine (PR) poly-dipeptides encoded by the <italic>C9orf72</italic> repeat expansion bound nuclear transport receptor Kapβ2 through its nuclear localization signal (NLS) recognition motif, and inhibited the ability of Kapβ2 to melt fused in sarcoma (FUS) droplets by competing interaction with FUS. The findings in this study offer mechanistic insights as to how the <italic>C9orf72</italic> repeat expansion disables nucleocytoplasmic transport and causes neurodegenerative diseases.

    We found that cytochrome P450BM3 starts to catalyze hydroxylation of nonnative substrates in the presence of inert dummy substrates (decoy molecules). Recently, we have demonstrated that various carboxylic acids modified with amino acids (N-acyl amino acids) having a completely different structure from fatty acids can serve as decoy molecules. Benzene was more efficiently hydroxylated in the presence of these decoy molecules. We also have demonstrated that the heme acquisition protein HasA secreted by Pseudomonas aeruginosa can accommodate Iron(III)-5,15-diphenylporphyrin and its derivatives including Fe-diaza-DPP without any structural perturbation. Crystal structure analysis revealed that phenyl groups at the meso-position of the porphyrins extend outside of HasA to avoid steric crowding and are exposed to the solvent. Iron(III)- and cobalt(III)-tetraphenylporphycenes, which possess bulky phenyl groups, also can be incorporated into HasA.

  4. Growth inhibition of Pseudomonas aeruginosa by HasA with metal-phthalocyanine and a novel elimination system of bacteria by photo-irradiation

    HasA (Heme acquisition system A) is a hemophore secreted by some pathogenic bacteria having a heme acquisition system (Has system) such as Pseudomonas aeruginosa. We have found that HasA can capture several synthetic metal complexes other than heme such as iron-salophen and iron-phthalocyanine. The crystal structures of HasA harboring iron-salophen and iron-phthalocyanine showed only small structural perturbations compared with that of HasA with heme. We also found that HasA bound to iron-phthalocyanine strongly inhibited HasA-mediated heme acquisition. Furthermore, we have demonstrated that Pseudomonas aeruginosa can be eliminated by photo-irradiation at 680 nm in the presence of HasA bound to gallium-phthalocyanine due to generation of singlet oxygen.
