Pseudomonas aeruginosa Oxidized Azurin(Cu2+) Ru(tpy)(phen)(His83)

Overview

Rates of reduction of Os(III), Ru(III), and Re(I) by Cu(I) in, His83-modified Pseudomonas aeruginosa azurins (M-Cu distance approximately, 17 A) have been measured in single crystals, where protein conformation, and surface solvation are precisely defined by high-resolution X-ray, structure determinations: 1.7(8) x 10(6) s(-1) (298 K), 1.8(8) x 10(6), s(-1) (140 K), [Ru(bpy)2(im)(3+)-]; 3.0(15) x 10(6) s(-1) (298 K), [Ru(tpy)(bpy)(3+)-]; 3.0(15) x 10(6) s(-1) (298 K), [Ru(tpy)(phen)(3+)-];, 9.0(50) x 10(2) s(-1) (298 K), [Os(bpy)2(im)(3+)-]; 4.4(20) x 10(6) s(-1), (298 K), [Re(CO)3(phen)(+)] (bpy = 2,2'-bipyridine; im = imidazole; tpy =, 2,2':6',2' '-terpyridine; phen = 1,10-phenanthroline). The time constants, for electron tunneling in crystals are roughly the same as those measured, in solution, indicating very similar protein structures in the two states., High-resolution structures of the oxidized (1.5 A) and reduced (1.4 A), states of Ru(II)(tpy)(phen)(His83)Az establish that very small changes in, copper coordination accompany reduction but reveal a shorter axial, interaction between copper and the Gly45 peptide carbonyl oxygen [2.6 A, for Cu(II)] than had been recognized previously. Although, Ru(bpy)2(im)(His83)Az is less solvated in the crystal, the reorganization, energy for Cu(I) --> Ru(III) electron transfer falls in the range (0.6-0.8, eV) determined experimentally for the reaction in solution. Our work, suggests that outer-sphere protein reorganization is the dominant, activation component required for electron tunneling.
