Abstract

Cytochrome P450 enzymes (CYPs) are heme-containing enzymes that catalyze hydroxylation with a variety of biological molecules. Despite their diverse activity and substrates, the structures of CYPs are limited to a tertiary structure that is similar across all the enzymes. It has been presumed that CYPs overcome substrate selectivity with highly flexible loops and divergent sequences around the substrate entrance region. Here, we report the newly identified CYP101D5 from Sphingomonas echinoides. CYP101D5 catalyzes the hydroxylation of β-ionone and flavonoids, including naringenin and apigenin, and causes the dehydrogenation of α-ionone. A structural investigation and comparison with other CYP101 families indicated that spatial constraints at the substrate-recognition site originate from the B/C loop. Furthermore, charge distribution at the substrate binding site may be important for substrate selectivity and the preference for CYP101D5.
