Alternative oxidase (AOX) catalyzes the four-electron reduction of dioxygen to water as an additional terminal oxidase, and the catalytic reaction is critical for the parasite to survive in its bloodstream form. Recently, the X-ray crystal structure of trypanosome alternative oxidase (TAO) complexed with ferulenol was reported and the molecular structure of the non-heme diiron center was determined. The binding of O2was a uniqueside-ontype compared to other iron proteins. In order to characterize the O2binding state of TAO, the O2binding states were searched at a quantum mechanics/molecular mechanics (QM/MM) theoretical level in the present study. We found that the most stable O2binding state is theend-ontype, and the binding states of theside-ontype are higher in energy. Based on the binding energies and electronic structure analyses, O2binds very weakly to the TAO iron center (ΔE=6.7 kcal mol−1) in the electronic state of Fe(II)…Odouble bondO, not in the suggested charge transferred state such as the superoxide state (Fe(III)single bondOsingle bondO·–) as seen in hemerythrin. Coordination of other ligands such as water, Cl−, CN−, CO, N3−and H2O2was also examined, and H2O2was found to bind most strongly to the Fe(II) site byΔE= 14.0 kcal mol−1. This was confirmed experimentally through the measurement of ubiquinol oxidase activity of TAO andCryptosporidium parvumAOX which was found to be inhibited by H2O2in a dose-dependent and reversible manner.
