Abstract

The arachidonic acid lipoxygenase 15B (ALOX15B) orthologs of men and mice form different reaction products when arachidonic acid is used as the substrate. Tyr603Asp+His604Val double mutation in mouse arachidonic acid lipoxygenase 15b humanized the product pattern and an inverse mutagenesis strategy murinized the specificity of the human enzyme. As the mechanistic basis for these functional differences, an inverse substrate binding at the active site of the enzymes has been suggested, but experimental proof for this hypothesis is still pending. Here we expressed wildtype mouse and human arachidonic acid lipoxygenase 15B orthologs as well as their humanized and murinized double mutants as recombinant proteins and analyzed the product patterns of these enzymes with different polyenoic fatty acids. In addition, in silico substrate docking studies and molecular dynamics simulation were performed to explore the mechanistic basis for the distinct reaction specificities of the different enzyme variants. Wildtype human arachidonic acid lipoxygenase 15B converted arachidonic acid and eicosapentaenoic acid to their 15-hydroperoxy derivatives but the Asp602Tyr+Val603His exchange murinized the product pattern. The inverse mutagenesis strategy in mouse arachidonic acid lipoxygenase 15b (Tyr603Asp+His604Val exchange) humanized the product pattern with these substrates, but the situation was different with docosahexaenoic acid. Here, Tyr603Asp+His604Val substitution in mouse arachidonic acid lipoxygenase 15b also humanized the specificity but the inverse mutagenesis (Asp602Tyr+Val603His) did not murinize the human enzyme. With linoleic acid Tyr603Asp+His604Val substitution in mouse arachidonic acid lipoxygenase 15b humanized the product pattern but the inverse mutagenesis in human arachidonic acid lipoxygenase 15B induced racemic product formation. Amino acid exchanges at critical positions of human and mouse arachidonic acid lipoxygenase 15B orthologs humanized/murinized the product pattern with C20 fatty acids, but this was not the case with fatty acid substrates of different chain lengths. Asp602Tyr+Val603His exchange murinized the product pattern of human arachidonic acid lipoxygenase 15B with arachidonic acid, eicosapentaenoic acid, and docosahexaenoic acid. An inverse mutagenesis strategy on mouse arachidonic acid lipoxygenase 15b (Tyr603Asp+His604Val exchange) did humanize the reaction products with arachidonic acid and eicosapentaenoic acid, but not with docosahexaenoic acid.
