Flavin-dependent halogenases are central enzymes in the production of halogenated secondary metabolites in various organisms and they constitute highly promising biocatalysts for regioselective halogenation. The mechanism of these monooxygenases includes formation of hypohalous acid from a reaction of fully reduced flavin with oxygen and halide. The hypohalous acid then diffuses via a tunnel to the substrate-binding site for halogenation of tryptophan and other substrates. Oxidized flavin needs to be reduced for regeneration of the enzyme, which can be performed in vitro by a photoreduction with blue light. Here, we employed this photoreduction to study characteristic structural changes associated with the transition from oxidized to fully reduced flavin in PyrH from Streptomyces rugosporus as a model for tryptophan-5-halogenases. The effect of the presence of bromide and chloride or the absence of any halides on the UV-vis spectrum of the enzyme demonstrated a halide-dependent structure of the flavin-binding pocket. Light-induced FTIR difference spectroscopy was applied and the signals assigned by selective isotope labeling of the protein moiety. The identified structural changes in α-helix and β-sheet elements were strongly dependent on the presence of bromide, chloride, the substrate tryptophan, and the product 5-chloro-tryptophan, respectively. We identified a clear allosteric coupling in solution at ambient conditions between cofactor-binding site and substrate-binding site that is active in both directions, despite their separation by a tunnel. We suggest that this coupling constitutes a fine-tuned mechanism for the promotion of the enzymatic reaction of flavin-dependent halogenases in dependence of halide and substrate availability.
