Structural Characterization of Two Short Unspecific Peroxygenases: Two Different Dimeric Arrangements.

ABSTRACT: Unspecific peroxygenases (UPOs) are extracellular fungal enzymes of biotechnological interest as self-sufficient (and more stable) counterparts of cytochrome P450 monooxygenases, the latter being present in most living cells. Expression hosts and structural information are crucial for exploiting UPO diversity (over eight thousand UPO-type genes were identified in sequenced genomes) in target reactions of industrial interest. However, while many thousands of entries in the Protein Data Bank include molecular coordinates of P450 enzymes, only 19 entries correspond to UPO enzymes, and UPO structures from only two species (Agrocybe aegerita and Hypoxylon sp.) have been published to date. In the present study, two UPOs from the basidiomycete Marasmius rotula (rMroUPO
