additional information | lignin peroxidase is unable to degrade atrazine, analysis of the connection between the structural and dynamical properties of the enzyme and its incapability to degrade atrazine, protein-ligand docking and molecular dynamics study, three-dimensional modeling of the lignin peroxidase-atrazine complex, overview. Atrazine has no access to heme edge due to the electric charges of the delocalized S-triazine ring. The detected phenomenon suggests that the small size of the ligands only is not a sufficient condition to access the active site. Their physicochemical properties also influence the structural behaviour of the channel. The lignin peroxidase can directly oxidize lignin in the partially degraded plant cell walls cannot be excluded. Lignin peroxidase has a so-called ligand access channel which allows direct interaction between the substrate and the heme. Residues His82, Ile85, Glu146, Phe148, Asp183, Val184 and Gln222 are located in this channel. The channel is sterically restricted and does not allow access to large bulky (lignin) substrates. The enzyme's natural substrate, veratrol, can easily approach heme through the ligand access channel. Based on the results of protein-ligand docking, atrazine can find an energetically favourable position in the environment of the ligand channel residues, although, the mathematical probability of the formation of these complexes is not significant (10%, 16% and 53% frequency values at three different temperatures) | Phanerodontia chrysosporium |
