  14. Introduction Repairing the Molybdenum Cofactor Baby Z Cured of Rare Disease in 3 Days Orphan Drug Treatment Used Only on Mice to Get Hearing Before FDA By SUSAN DONALDSON JAMES, Nov. 9, 2009 (Southern Health/AFP/Getty Images) Baby Z had a one in a million chance of developing a rare metabolic disorder called molybdenum cofactor deficiency and zero chance of avoiding the inevitable death sentence that comes with it. The Australian girl had a seemingly normal birth in May 2008 but, within hours, she began having multiple seizures -- as many as 10 an hour -- as sulfite build-up began to poison her brain. With the clock ticking, doctors who treated Baby Z gained approval from the hospital's ethics board and a family court to use the experimental treatment. The drug -- cPMP, a precurser molecule made from E. coli bacteria -- was airlifted on ice from the lab of German professor Guenter Schwarz and, within three days, it worked. University of Arizona, Tucson, October 2010 Worldwide, there are only about 50 cases of molybdenum cofactor, or sulfite oxidase deficiency, mostly in Europe and in the United States, according to the National Institutes of Health. Molybdenum, like other organic metals, is essential for the human body. Its cofactor is a small, complicated molecule that acts as a carrier to help the metal interact with proteins and enzymes so they can function properly. When the cofactor is missing, toxic sulfite builds and begins to cause degeneration of neurons on the brain and eventually death. "This was the first time I ever saw this," said Dr. Alex Veldman, the Monash neonatologist who headed up Baby Z's treatment. "It's very funny, now I am regarded a world specialist but I can tell you that before last May, I couldn't even spell it."

  15. Why the correct oxidation state matters

  16. MRI of brain of deceased baby with Sulfite Oxidase Deficiency MRI of healthy brain

  17. The baby died because this reaction didn’t happen: SO32- + H2O ---> SO42- + 2H+ + 2e- Sulfite Sulfate S4+ S6+ The baby has a genetic defect in the enzyme that catalyzes this reaction. Babies with this genetic disease die within hours. The enzyme is Sulfite Oxidase. You have it in your liver.

  18. Review the terms: Oxidation SO32- + H2O ---> SO42- + 2H+ + 2e- half reactionS4+ in Sulfite S6+ in Sulfate Reduction Mo6+ + 2e- ---> Mo4+ half reaction Net redox reaction SO32- + H2O + Mo6+ ---> SO42- + 2H+ + Mo4+ Is this reaction spontaneous?

  25. DMSOR Structure: Controversy #2 The first Mo enzyme X-ray structure: DMSO Reductase Doug Rees, 1996 Doug Rees, Cal Tech Protein crystallographer Group Meeting Bryn Mawr College, October 2010 • SURPRISE!!!! • 2 molydopterin ligands! • nucleoside termini on pterin • very long Mo-S bonds

  26. DMSOR Structure: Controversy #2 The first look at molybdopterin was on a tungsten enzyme! Hyperthermophilic TungstonEnzyme, Aldehyde Ferredoxin Oxidoreductase Doug Rees et al., Science,1995 Group Meeting Bryn Mawr College, October 2010 • SURPRISE!!!! • not the molydopterin ligand! • is that pyran ring actually right???

  27. DMSOR Structure: Controversy #2 Will the real active site structure in DMSO Reductase please stand up? Group Meeting Bryn Mawr College, October 2010 (S J N Burgmayer, in Progress in Inorganic Chemistry, 2004)
