Flavohemoglobins (FlavoHb) are metalloenzymes catalyzing the reaction of nitric oxide dioxygenation. The iron cation of the heme group needs to be preliminarily reduced to the ferrous state to be catalytically competent. This reduction is triggered by a flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD) prosthetic group which is localized in a distinct domain of the protein. In this paper we obtain new insights into the internal long range electron transfer (over ca. 12 Å) using a combination of experimental and computational approaches. Employing a time-resolved pulse radiolysis technique we report the first direct measurement of the FADH˙ → HemeFeIII electron transfer rate. A rate constant of (6.8 ± 0.5) × 103 s−1 is found. A large panel of computational approaches are used to provide the first estimation of the thermodynamic characteristics of the internal electron transfer step within flavoHb: both the driving force and the reorganization energy are estimated as a function of the protonated state of the flavin semi-quinone. We also report an analysis of the electron pathways involved in the tunnelling of the electron through the aqueous interface between the globin and the flavin domains.

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) is an international journal co-owned by 19 physical chemistry and physics societies from around the world. This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
