As an alternative to Darwinian evolution relying on catalytic promiscuity, a protein may acquire auxiliary function upon metal binding, thus providing it with a novel catalytic machinery. Here we show that addition of cupric ions to a 6-phosphogluconolactonase 6-PGLac bearing a putative metal binding site leads to the emergence of peroxidase activity (k(cat) 7.8 x 10(-2) s(-1), K-M 1.1 x 10(-5) M). Both X-ray crystallographic and EPR data of the copper-loaded enzyme Cu.6-PGLac reveal a bis-histidine coordination site, located within a shallow binding pocket capable of accommodating the o-dianisidine substrate.
