Specific substrate-induced structural changes in the heme pocket are proposed for human cytochrome P450 aromatase (P450arom) which undergoes three consecutive oxygen activation steps. We have experimentally investigated this heme environment by resonance Raman spectra of both substrate-free and substrate-bound forms of the purified enzyme. The Fe−CO stretching mode (νFe-CO) of the CO complex and Fe3+−S stretching mode (νFe-S) of the oxidized form were monitored as a structural marker of the distal and proximal sides of the heme, respectively. The νFe-COmode was upshifted from 477 to 485 and to 490 cm-1by the binding of androstenedione and 19-aldehyde-androstenedione, substrates for the first and third steps, respectively, whereas νFe-COwas not observed for P450arom with 19-hydroxyandrostenedione, a substrate for the second step, indicating that the heme distal site is very flexible and changes its structure depending on the substrate. The 19-aldehyde-androstenedione binding could reduce the electron donation from the axial thiolate, which was evident from the low-frequency shift of νFe-Sby 5 cm-1compared to that of androstenedione-bound P450arom. Changes in the environment in the heme distal site and the reduced electron donation from the axial thiolate upon 19-aldehyde-androstenedione binding might stabilize the ferric peroxo species, an active intermediate for the third step, with the suppression of the formation of compound I (Fe4+O porphyrin+•) that is the active species for the first and second steps. We, therefore, propose that the substrates can regulate the formation of alternative reaction intermediates by modulating the structure on both the heme distal and proximal sites in P450arom.
