The binuclear manganese metalloenzyme human arginase I (HAI) is a potential protein drug for cancer chemotherapy, in that it is capable of depleting extracellular l-Arg levels in the microenvironment of tumor cells that require this nutrient to thrive. Substitution of the native Mn2+2 cluster with a Co2+2 cluster in the active site yields an enzyme with enhanced catalytic activity at physiological pH (~7.4) that could serve as an improved protein drug for l-Arg depletion therapy. A different catalytic mechanism is proposed for Co2+2-HAI compared with that of Mn2+2-HAI, including an unusual Nε---Co2+ coordination mode, to rationalize the lower KM value of l-Arg and the lower Ki value of l-Orn. However, we now report that no unusual metal coordination modes are observed in the cobalt-reconstituted enzyme: the X-ray crystal structures of unliganded Co2+2-HAI determined at 2.10 Å resolution (pH 7.0) and 1.97 Å resolution (pH 8.5), as well as the structures of Co2+2-HAI complexed with the reactive substrate analogue 2(S)-amino-6-boronohexanoic acid (ABH, pH 7.0) and the catalytic product l-Orn (pH 7.0) determined at 1.85 Å resolution and 1.50 Å resolution, respectively, are essentially identical to the corresponding structures of Mn2+2-HAI. Therefore, in the absence of significant structural differences between Co2+2-HAI and Mn2+2-HAI, we suggest that a higher concentration of metal-bridging hydroxide ion at physiological pH for Co2+2-HAI – a consequence of the lower pKa of a Co2+-bound water molecule compared with a Mn2+-bound water molecule – strengthens electrostatic interactions with cationic amino acids and accounts for enhanced affinity as reflected in the lower KM value of l-Arg and the lower Ki value of l-Orn.
