2,3-Dihydroxybiphenyl 1,2-dioxygenase (EC 1.13.11.39), the extradiol dioxygenase of the biphenyl biodegradation pathway, is subject to inactivation during the steady-state cleavage of catechols. Detailed analysis revealed that this inactivation was similar to the O₂-dependent inactivation of the enzyme in the absence of catecholic substrate, resulting in oxidation of the active site Fe(II) to Fe(III). Interestingly, the catecholic substrate not only increased the reactivity of the enzyme with O₂ to promote ring cleavage but also increased the rate of O₂-dependent inactivation. Thus, in air-saturated buffer, the apparent rate constant of inactivation of the free enzyme was (0.7 ± 0.1) × 10³ s¹ versus (3.7 ± 0.4) × 10³ s¹ for 2,3-dihydroxybiphenyl, the preferred catecholic substrate of the enzyme, and (501 ± 19) × 10³ s¹ for 3-chlorocatechol, a potent inactivator of 2,3-dihydroxybiphenyl 1,2-dioxygenase (partition coefficient = 8 ± 2, K = 4.8 ± 0.7 µM). The 2,3-dihydroxybiphenyl 1,2-dioxygenase-catalyzed cleavage of 3-chlorocatechol yielded predominantly 2-pyrone-6-carboxylic acid and 2-hydroxymuconic acid, consistent with the transient formation of an acyl chloride. However, the enzyme was not covalently modified by this acyl chloride in vitro or in vivo. The study suggests a general mechanism for the inactivation of extradiol dioxygenases during catalytic turnover involving the dissociation of superoxide from the enzyme-catecholic-dioxygen ternary complex and is consistent with the catalytic mechanism.
