WOR5 is the fifth and last member of the family of tungsten-containing oxidoreductases purified from the hyperthermophilic archaeon Pyrococcus furiosus. It is a homodimeric protein (subunit, 65 kDa) that contains one [4Fe-4S] cluster and one tungstobispterin cofactor per subunit. It has a broad substrate specificity with a high affinity for several substituted and nonsubstituted aliphatic and aromatic aldehydes with various chain lengths. The highest catalytic efficiency of WOR5 is found for the oxidation of hexanal (V-max = 15.6 U/mg, K-m = 0.18 mM at 60 degrees C). Hexanal-incubated enzyme exhibits S = 1/2 electron paramagnetic resonance signals from [4Fe-4S](1+) (g values of 2.08,1.93, and 1.87) and W5+ (g values of 1.977, 1.906, and 1.855). Cyclic voltammetry of ferredoxin and WOR5 on an activated glassy carbon electrode shows a catalytic wave upon addition of hexanal, suggesting that ferredoxin can be a physiological redox partner. The combination of WOR5, formaldehyde oxidoreductase, and aldehyde oxidoreductase forms an efficient catalyst for the oxidation of a broad range of aldehydes in P. furiosus.
