    Notes: Abstract The use of semi-empirical molecular orbital methods for the study of biologically important molecules has increased in recent years. The validity of well-known approximate Hartree-Fock molecular orbital methods such as MINDO/3 and MNDO still remains largely untested for biological molecules. Here we report its first application to the study of the electronic structures of isoalloxazines. Electronic charge distribution, variation of dipole moment, first ionization potential, electron affinity, orbital energies and electronic transitions are examined. Some of these results are compared with experiments. Good correlations with experiments were generally found in net atomic charge distributions, ionization potentials and electronic transitions. As a result of relatively good correlations with experiment application of the MINDO/3 method for extended study of biologically important coenzymes is promising.

    Notes: MINDO/3 calculations have been performed on the Clostridium MP flavodoxin active site (a complex of the redox active coenzyme flavin mononucleotide sandwiched between the side chains of methionine and tryptophan) at various redox levels using coordinates derived from x-ray diffraction studies of the holoenzyme. Frontier orbital indices were calculated and indicate that reduction of the flavin is accompanied by induced polar states in the amino acid side chains. This stabilization of charge by the amino acid side chains could account for the reaction rate enhancement of flavin reduction catalyzed by flavodoxin. Frontier orbitals for free flavin, for the flavodoxin bound flavin without the amino acid side chains, and for the oxidized Desulfovibrio vulgaris flavodoxin active site were computed for comparison.

    Notes: MINDO/3 calculations have been performed on semiquinone and fully reduced lumiflavins and on hydroperoxy adducts of lumiflavin. Frontier orbital indices were calculated. Reduction of the flavin was studied in bent and planar flavin rings. The results suggest that the planar reduced flavin has a smaller ionization potential than the bent reduced flavin. This could account for the low redox potential of protein-bound reduced flavins.
