Redox and spectroscopic (electronic absorption, multifrequency electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR), and X-ray absorption) properties together with X-ray crystal structures are reported for the type 2 Cu(II) C112D/M121E variant of Pseudomonas aeruginosa azurin. The results suggest that Cu(II) is constrained from interaction with the proximal glutamate; this structural frustration implies a "rack" mechanism for the 290 mV (vs NHE) reduction potential measured at neutral pH. At high pH (∼9), hydrogen bonding in the outer coordination sphere is perturbed to allow axial glutamate ligation to Cu(II), with a decrease in potential to 119 mV. These results highlight the role played by outer-sphere interactions, and the structural constraints they impose, in determining the redox behavior of transition metal protein cofactors.
