2-Oxo-1,2-dihydroquinoline 8-monooxygenase, which catalyzes the NADH-dependent oxygenation of 2-oxo-1,2-dihydroquinoline to 8-hydroxy-2-oxo-1,2-dihydroquinoline, is the second enzyme in the quinoline degradation pathway of Pseudomonas putida 86. This enzyme system consists of two inducible protein components, which were purified, characterized, and identified as reductase and oxygenase. The yellow reductase is a monomeric iron-sulfur flavoprotein (M, 38,000), containing flavin adenine dinucleotide and plant-type ferredoxin [2Fe-2S]. It transferred electrons from NADH to the oxygenase or to some artificial electron acceptors. The red-brown oxygenase (M, 330,000) consists of six identical subunits (M, 55,000) and was identified as an iron-sulfur protein, possessing about six Rieske-type [2Fe-2S] clusters and additional iron. It was reduced by NADH plus catalytic amounts of reductase. For monooxygenase activity, reductase, oxygenase, NADH, molecular oxygen, and substrate were required. The activity was considerably enhanced by the addition of polyethylene glycol and Fe. 2-Oxo-1,2-dihydroquinoline 8-monooxygenase revealed a high substrate specificity toward 2-oxo-1,2-dihydroquinoline, since none of 25 other tested compounds was converted. Based on its physical, chemical, and catalytic properties, we presume 2-oxo-1,2-dihydroquinoline 8-monooxygenase to belong to the class IB multicomponent non-heme iron oxygenases.
