CRYSTAL STRUCTURE OF THE SMHASA MUTANT H83A
Overview
Heme carrier HasA has a unique type of histidine/tyrosine heme iron ligation in which the iron ion is in a thermally driven two spin state equilibrium. We recently suggested that the H-bonding between Y75 and the invariantly conserved residue H83 modulates the strength of the Fe-Y75 bond. To unravel the role of H83, we characterize the iron ligation and the electronic properties of both wild type and H83A mutant by a variety of spectroscopic techniques. While H83 in wild type modulates the strength of the Tyr-iron bond, its removal causes detachment of the tyrosine ligand, thus giving rise to a series of pH dependent equilibria among species with different axial ligation. The five coordinated species detected at physiological pH may represent a possible intermediate of the heme transfer mechanism to the receptor.
