1.8.5.7 glutathionyl-hydroquinone reductaseIUBMB Comments
This type of enzymes, which are found in bacteria, halobacteria, fungi, and plants, catalyse the glutathione-dependent reduction of glutathionyl-hydroquinones. The enzyme from the bacterium Sphingobium chlorophenolicum can act on halogenated substrates such as 2,6-dichloro-3-(glutathione-S-yl)-hydroquinone and 2,3,5-trichloro-6-(glutathione-S-yl)-hydroquinone. Substrates for these enzymes are often formed spontaneously by interaction of benzoquinones with glutathione.

several benzoquinones spontaneously react with glutathione to form glutathionyl-hydroquinones via Michael addition. The enzyme reduces the glutathionyl-hydroquinones to the corresponding hydroquinones. The spontaneous and enzymatic reactions lead to the reduction of benzoquinones to hydroquinones with the concomitant oxidation of glutathione to glutathione disulfide. The enzyme does not use glutathionyl-benzoquinones or other thiol-hydroquinones, for example, S-cysteinylhydroquinone, as substrates. Hydrophobic, bulky substrates, such as glutathionyl-menadiol, are preferred

PcpF catalyzes glutathione-dependent reduction of glutathionyl-trichloro-p-hydroquinone via a Ping Pong mechanism. First, PcpF reacts with glutathionyl-trichloro-p-hydroquinone to release trichloro-p-hydroquinone and forms a disulfide bond between its Cys53 residue and the glutathione moiety. Then, a glutathione comes in to regenerate PcpF and release glutathione disulfide

LITERATURE
binary complex structure with glutathionyl-menadione. The structure reveals a large H-site that could accommodate various substituted hydroquinones and a hydrogen network of three Tyr residues that could provide the proton for reductive deglutathionylation
structure in complex with glutathione, to 2.5 A resolution. Isoform GHR1 adopts a typical glutathionyl-hydroquinone reductase fold, with a dimerization interface comparable to that of the bacterial and fungal counterparts
-
isoform ECM4 shows extensions including a huge loop which contributes to the quaternary assembly. Soaking of ECM4 crystals with glutathionyl-menadione results in a structure where glutathione forms a mixed disulfide bond with the cysteine 46. Residues H345 and H350, F228, Y224 and W48 could play crucial roles in binding of glutathionyl-(hydro)quinones, and in assisting C46 during catalysis
