Lysine 2,3-aminomutase from Clostridia catalyzes the interconversion of L-alpha-lysine with L-beta-lysine. The purified enzyme contains iron-sulfur ([Fe-S]) clusters, pyridoxal phosphate, and Co(II) [Petrovich, R. M., Ruzicka, F. J., Reed, G. H., & Frey, P. A. (1991) J. Biol. Chem. 266, 7656-7660]. Enzymatic activity depends upon the presence and integrity of these cofactors. In addition, the enzyme is activated by S-adenosylmethionine, which participates in the transfer of a substrate hydrogen atom between carbon-3 of lysine and carbon-2 of beta-lysine [Moss, M., & Frey, P. A. (1987) J. Biol. Chem. 262, 14859-14862]. This paper describes the electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) properties of the [Fe-S] clusters. Purified samples of the enzyme also contain low and variable levels of a stable radical. The radical spectrum is centered at g = 2.006 and is subject to inhomogeneous broadening at 10 K, with a p1/2 value of 550 +/- 100 microW. The low-temperature EPR spectrum of the [Fe-S] cluster is centered at g = 2.007 and undergoes power saturation at 10 K in a homogeneous manner, with a p1/2 of 15 +/- 2 mW. The signals are consistent with the formulation [4Fe-4S] and are adequately simulated by a rhombic spectrum, in which gxx = 2.027, gyy = 2.007, and gzz = 1.99. Treatment of the enzyme with reducing agents converts the cluster into an EPR-silent form. Oxidation of the purified enzyme by air or ferricyanide converts the [Fe-S] complex into a species with an EPR spectrum that is consistent with the formulation [3Fe-4S].(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
