Revealing a New Family of D-2-Hydroxyglutarate Dehydrogenases in <i>Escherichia coli</i> and <i>Pantoea ananatis</i> Encoded by <i>ydiJ</i>

In <i>E. coli</i> and <i>P. ananatis</i>, L-serine biosynthesis is initiated by the action of D-3-phosphoglycerate dehydrogenase (SerA), which converts D-3-phosphoglycerate into 3-phosphohydroxypyruvate. SerA can concomitantly catalyze the production of D-2-hydroxyglutarate (...

description In <i>E. coli</i> and <i>P. ananatis</i>, L-serine biosynthesis is initiated by the action of D-3-phosphoglycerate dehydrogenase (SerA), which converts D-3-phosphoglycerate into 3-phosphohydroxypyruvate. SerA can concomitantly catalyze the production of D-2-hydroxyglutarate (D-2-HGA) from 2-ketoglutarate by oxidizing NADH to NAD<sup>+</sup>. Several bacterial D-2-hydroxyglutarate dehydrogenases (D2HGDHs) have recently been identified, which convert D-2-HGA back to 2-ketoglutarate. However, knowledge about the enzymes that can metabolize D-2-HGA is lacking in bacteria belonging to the <i>Enterobacteriaceae</i> family. We found that <i>ydiJ</i> encodes novel D2HGDHs in <i>P. ananatis</i> and <i>E. coli</i>, which were assigned as D2HGDH<i>Pa</i> and D2HGDH<i>Ec</i>, respectively. Inactivation of <i>ydiJ</i> in <i>P. ananatis</i> and <i>E. coli</i> led to the significant accumulation of D-2-HGA. Recombinant D2HGDH<i>Ec</i> and D2HGDH<i>Pa</i> were purified to homogeneity and characterized. D2HGDH<i>Ec</i> and D2HGDH<i>Pa</i> are homotetrameric with a subunit molecular mass of 110 kDa. The pH optimum was 7.5 for D2HGDH<i>Pa</i> and 8.0 for D2HGDH<i>Ec</i>. The Km for D-2-HGA was 208 μM for D2HGDHPa and 83 μM for D2HGDH<i>Ec</i>. The enzymes have strict substrate specificity towards D-2-HGA and displayed maximal activity at 45 °C. Their activity was completely inhibited by 0.5 mM Mn<sup>2+</sup>, Ni<sup>2+</sup> or Co<sup>2+</sup>. The discovery of a novel family of D2HGDHs may provide fundamental information for the metabolic engineering of microbial chassis with desired properties.
