Molecular cloning, expression, and structural prediction of deoxyhypusine hydroxylase: a HEAT-repeat-containing metalloenzyme.

The eukaryotic initiation factor 5A (eIF5A), a factor essential for eukaryotic cell proliferation, is the only cellular protein containing the polyamine-derived amino acid hypusine [N(epsilon)-(4-amino-2-hydroxybutyl)lysine].

The eukaryotic initiation factor 5A (eIF5A), a factor essential for eukaryotic cell proliferation, is the only cellular protein containing the polyamine-derived amino acid hypusine [N(epsilon)-(4-amino-2-hydroxybutyl)lysine]. Hypusine is formed in a posttranslational modification that involves two sequential enzymatic steps catalyzed by deoxyhypusine synthase and deoxyhypusine hydroxylase (DOHH). By screening a Saccharomyces cerevisiae GST-ORF library for expression of DOHH activity, we have cloned YJR070C as the gene encoding DOHH and identified the human homolog DOHH gene, HLRC1. Purified recombinant yeast and human DOHH enzymes effectively catalyzed hydroxylation of the deoxyhypusine residue in the eIF5A intermediate. Overexpression of human DOHH along with eIF5A precursor and deoxyhypusine synthase was required for overproduction of mature, hypusine-containing eIF5A in 293T and other mammalian cells. The Saccharomyces cerevisiae strain with deletion of YJR070C contained only deoxyhypusine but no hypusine, indicating that YJR070C was the single DOHH gene in this organism. One highly conserved DOHH homolog gene is found in a variety of eukaryotes from yeast to human. Sequence and structural analyses reveal that DOHH belongs to a family of HEAT-repeat-containing proteins, consisting of eight tandem repeats of an alpha-helical pair (HEAT motif) organized in a symmetrical dyad. The predicted structure is unrelated to the double-stranded beta-helix type structures of the Fe(II)- and 2-oxoacid-dependent dioxygenases, such as collagen prolyl or lysyl hydroxylases. However, metal coordination sites composed of four strictly conserved histidine-glutamate sequences were identified, suggesting that DOHH enzymes have convergently evolved an iron-dependent hydroxylation mechanism. << Less

The central importance of translational control by post-translational modification has spurred major interest in regulatory pathways that control translation. One such pathway uniquely adds hypusine to eukaryotic initiation factor 5A (eIF5A), and thereby affects protein synthesis and, subsequently, cellular proliferation through an unknown mechanism. Using a novel conditional knockout mouse model and a Caenorhabditis elegans knockout model, we found an evolutionarily conserved role for the DOHH-mediated second step of hypusine synthesis in early embryonic development. At the cellular level, we observed reduced proliferation and induction of senescence in 3T3 Dohh-/-cells as well as reduced capability for malignant transformation. Furthermore, mass spectrometry showed that deletion of DOHH results in an unexpected complete loss of hypusine modification. Our results provide new biological insight into the physiological roles of the second step of the hypusination of eIF5A. Moreover, the conditional mouse model presented here provides a powerful tool for manipulating hypusine modification in a temporal and spatial manner, to analyse both how this unique modification normally functions in vivo as well as how it contributes to different pathological conditions. << Less

Deoxyhypusine hydroxylase (DOHH) catalyzes the final step in the post-translational synthesis of an unusual amino acid hypusine (N(€)-(4-amino-2-hydroxybutyl) lysine), which is present on only one cellular protein, eukaryotic initiation factor 5A (eIF5A). We present here the molecular and structural basis of the function of DOHH from the protozoan parasite, Leishmania donovani, which causes visceral leishmaniasis. The L. donovani DOHH gene is 981 bp and encodes a putative polypeptide of 326 amino acids. DOHH is a HEAT-repeat protein with eight tandem repeats of α-helical pairs. Four conserved histidine-glutamate sequences have been identified that may act as metal coordination sites. A ~42 kDa recombinant protein with a His-tag was obtained by heterologous expression of DOHH in Escherichia coli. Purified recombinant DOHH effectively catalyzed the hydroxylation of the intermediate, eIF5A-deoxyhypusine (eIF5A-Dhp), in vitro. L. donovani DOHH (LdDOHH) showed ~40.6% sequence identity with its human homolog. The alignment of L. donovani DOHH with the human homolog shows that there are two significant insertions in the former, corresponding to the alignment positions 159-162 (four amino acid residues) and 174-183 (ten amino acid residues) which are present in the variable loop connecting the N- and C-terminal halves of the protein, the latter being present near the substrate binding site. Deletion of the ten-amino-acid-long insertion decreased LdDOHH activity to 14% of the wild type recombinant LdDOHH. Metal chelators like ciclopirox olamine (CPX) and mimosine significantly inhibited the growth of L. donovani and DOHH activity in vitro. These inhibitors were more effective against the parasite enzyme than the human enzyme. This report, for the first time, confirms the presence of a complete hypusine pathway in a kinetoplastid unlike eubacteria and archaea. The structural differences between the L. donovani DOHH and the human homolog may be exploited for structure based design of selective inhibitors against the parasite. << Less

Deoxyhypusine hydroxylase, the enzyme that catalyzes the formation of hypusine from deoxyhypusine in eukaryotic initiation factor 4D, has been partially purified from rat testis. The partially purified enzyme requires only the addition of certain sulfhydryl compounds for catalytic activity, dithiothreitol being the most effective. Its lack of dependency on the alpha-keto acid-dependent dioxygenase cofactors, Fe2+, alpha-ketoglutarate, and ascorbic acid, its failure to decarboxylate stoichiometrically alpha-ketoglutarate with deoxyhypusine hydroxylation, and its strong and specific inhibition by Fe2+ all suggest a catalytic mechanism of this enzyme unlike that of the prolyl and lysyl hydroxylases. << Less

Primaquine, an 8-aminoquinoline, is the only drug which cures the dormant hypnozoites of persistent liver stages from P. vivax. Increasing resistance needs the discovery of alternative pathways as drug targets to develop novel drug entities. Deoxyhypusine hydroxylase (DOHH) completes hypusine biosynthesis in eukaryotic initiation factor (eIF-5A) which is the only cellular protein known to contain the unusual amino acid hypusine. Modified EIF-5A is important for proliferation of the malaria parasite. Here, we present the first successful cloning and expression of DOHH from P. vivax causing tertiary malaria. The nucleic acid sequence of 1041 bp encodes an open reading frame of 346 amino acids. Histidine tagged expression of P. vivax DOHH detected a protein of 39.01 kDa in E. coli. The DOHH protein from P. vivax shares significant amino acid identity to the simian orthologues from P. knowlesi and P. yoelii strain H. In contrast to P. falciparum only four E-Z-type HEAT-like repeats are present in P. vivax DOHH with different homology to phycocyanin lyase subunits from cyanobacteria and in proteins participating in energy metabolism of Archaea and Halobacteria. However, phycocyanin lyase activity is absent in P. vivax DOHH. The dohh gene is present as a single copy gene and transcribed throughout the whole erythrocytic cycle. Specific inhibition of recombinant P. vivax DOHH is possible by complexing the ferrous iron with zileuton, an inhibitor of mammalian 5-lipoxygenase (5-LOX). Ferrous iron in the active site of 5-LOX is coordinated by three conserved histidines and the carboxylate of isoleucine(673). Zileuton inhibited the P. vivax DOHH protein with an IC50 of 12,5 nmol determined by a relative quantification by GC/MS. By contrast, the human orthologue is only less affected with an IC50 of 90 nmol suggesting a selective iron-complexing strategy for the parasitic enzyme. << Less
