4-Hydroxyphenylacetate 3-Hydroxylase (4HPA3H): A Vigorous Monooxygenase for Versatile <i>O</i>-Hydroxylation Applications in the Biosynthesis of Phenolic Derivatives
4-Hydroxyphenylacetate 3-hydroxylase (4HPA3H) is a long-known class of two-component flavin-dependent monooxygenases from bacteria, including an oxygenase component (EC 1.14.14.9) and a reductase component (EC 1.5.1.36), with the latter being accountable for delivering the cofactor (reduced flavin)...

description | 4-Hydroxyphenylacetate 3-hydroxylase (4HPA3H) is a long-known class of two-component flavin-dependent monooxygenases from bacteria, including an oxygenase component (EC 1.14.14.9) and a reductase component (EC 1.5.1.36), with the latter being accountable for delivering the cofactor (reduced flavin) essential for <i>o</i>-hydroxylation. 4HPA3H has a broad substrate spectrum involved in key biological processes, including cellular catabolism, detoxification, and the biosynthesis of bioactive molecules. Additionally, it specifically hydroxylates the <i>o</i>-position of the C4 position of the benzene ring in phenolic compounds, generating high-value polyhydroxyphenols. As a non-P450 <i>o</i>-hydroxylase, 4HPA3H offers a viable alternative for the de novo synthesis of valuable natural products. The enzyme holds the potential to replace plant-derived P450s in the <i>o</i>-hydroxylation of plant polyphenols, addressing the current significant challenge in engineering specific microbial strains with P450s. This review summarizes the source distribution, structural properties, and mechanism of 4HPA3Hs and their application in the biosynthesis of natural products in recent years. The potential industrial applications and prospects of 4HPA3H biocatalysts are also presented. |
