Cumulative Teaching Experience at Auburn:

BCHE 7220 Cellular and Molecular Enzymology (10´, 103 students, ~10 per offering)

BCHE 7200 Advanced Biochemistry I (6´, 145 students, ~24 per offering)

BCHE 5190/6190 General Biochemistry II (14´, 1,318 UG/68 G students, ~96/5 per offering)

BCHE 5180/6180 General Biochemistry I (5´, 639 UG/20 G students, ~128/4 per offering)

BCHE 6190 General Biochemistry II (prior to piggyback split) (6´, 488 students, ~81 per offering

CHEM 1030 Fundamentals of Chemistry I (1´, 211 students)

CHEM 1010 Survey of Chemistry II (1´, 119 students)

SCMH 1010 Concepts of Science (2´, 415 students, ~208 per offering)

CHEM 640 (16 students)/CHEM 646 (18 students) (qtrs, 1´ each – roughly equivalent to BCHE 7200)

The number of Biochemistry Division faculty combined with the number of section offerings for the large BCHE 5180/6180 and BCHE 5190/6190 courses has not enabled division faculty to teach outside of the department’s BCHE courses since 2009.

I was given release time from teaching in Fall 2017 to support progress on a new NSF grant, and to offset the increase in service commitment starting in Summer 2017 as the DBC Graduate Program Officer (GPO). Organizing and executing the New Graduate Student Seminar (Fall semesters) is part of GPO duties. The necessary tasks include soliciting participating faculty (multiple departments/units on campus), scheduling, generating material and presenting for two of the sessions, and monitoring student attendance. Since taking the position of Chair of the Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry, I have retained a diminished role in instruction.

4. B. RESEARCH

4.B.a Description of Research Program

Goodwin laboratory student success. An important measure of the success of this research program is the students who have contributed to its progress over years. Following the completion of their degrees (see 4.A.b.1 Dr. Goodwin as major professor), they have gone on to postdoctoral positions at some of the top institutions and labs in the country, including the National Institutes of Health, the Scripps Research Institute, Vanderbilt, Yale, Berkeley, Rice, University of Kentucky, Virginia Tech, Merck, and others. Several of my former students have since taken tenure-track faculty positions, and others have moved into positions in industry.

Broadly, the central interest of my research is in understanding the connections between enzyme structure and mechanism, including mechanisms of cofactor maturation, catalysis, inhibition, and irreversible inactivation. The enzymes under investigation in my laboratory are intimately connected to important physiological phenomena of substantial biomedical concern. These include host-pathogen interactions, virulence of bacterial and fungal pathogens, antibiotic resistance (particularly in tuberculosis), and the development of new antibiotic agents to fight organisms like Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Consequently, our progress in elucidating the enzyme structure-function connection carries important ramifications for understanding these broader concerns.

Catalase-peroxidase (KatG) Structure and Mechanism. A case-in-point is provided by KatG. The primary function of KatG is to degrade hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂). Interestingly, in Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb), KatG is also critical for the activation of the front line antitubercular agent isoniazid. Indeed, it has been estimated that over 70% of isoniazid resistant Mtb carry mutations that render KatG unable to catalyze isoniazid activation. Second, KatG is prominently distributed among some of the planet’s most notorious pathogenic organisms where its production is often connected with other virulence factors. This is true for both bacterial pathogens (e.g., the organisms that causes of tuberculosis and bubonic plague) and fungal pathogens (e.g., the organism that causes rice blast disease). This perhaps should not be too surprising given that a near universal response of higher eukaryotes (the intended hosts for these pathogens) is to produce large amounts of H₂O₂ to defend against infection.

The Goodwin laboratory has observed that peroxidatic electron donors (PxEDs) do not inhibit catalase activity as the entire field had anticipated, rather they stimulate catalase activity by at least an order of magnitude. PxED’s not only increase the efficiency of H₂O₂ degradation, but they also dramatically expand the pH range over which rapid H₂O₂ degradation can be expected. This new pH range matches precisely the conditions that infected hosts use to defend themselves against pathogens like those mentioned above. As we have investigated this phenomenon, we have uncovered that the PxED stimulatory effect and most aspects of KatG catalysis are connected to how the enzyme controls through-protein electron transfer. This has led to an NSF-funded project to evaluate intramolecular electron transfer as it relates to posttranslational formation of KatG’s novel MYW cofactor as well as how that cofactor is used for a completely novel mechanism of H₂O₂ degradation.

In addition, KatGs afford a novel opportunity for making advances in enzyme engineering, providing a platform for the development of new catalysts to address specific threats to human health. For enzyme engineering to be successful, it is essential that we understand the ways in which protein structures external to an active site can be used to modulate the function of that active site. KatGs are unique in that they use a single active site for two distinct catalytic activities: catalase and peroxidase. Amino acid sequence and protein structure comparisons reveal that KatGs and monofunctional peroxidases have highly similar active sites. However, the monofunctional peroxidases lack appreciable catalase activity. Sequence and structural analyses also reveal the presence of three large structures in KatGs that are absent from monofunctional peroxidases: two interhelical insertions and a C-terminal domain. All three of these features are peripheral to the active site. Thus, the KatGs represent an ideal opportunity to evaluate the mechanisms of active site modulation by peripheral protein structures. Consequently, our research holds great promise for making necessary advances to support efforts in enzyme engineering.

Identifying natural product inhibitors of M. tuberculosis shikimate kinase. As mentioned above, drug-resistant Mtb continues to pose a substantial threat to human health. Alarmingly, the FDA has only approved one new antitubercular agent since the 1960’s. Clearly, the need for new drugs to treat Mtb is pressing. Collaborating with Dr. Angela Calderón in the Drug Discovery and Development, we are investigating the shikimate pathway as a potential target for new antitubercular agents, and we are drawing on natural products as a source for new scaffolds for the development of such compounds. The shikimate pathway is particularly attractive for drug targets because it is essential for mycobacterial survival, but it is not present in humans. We are currently identifying natural product inhibitors for shikimate kinase. We are using mass spectrometry based rapid screening approaches to identify inhibitors, but it is not enough to simply identify such compounds. The compounds most likely to be successful as leads for new antitubercular agents must be mechanistically appropriate. That is, they must inhibit the aspects of the mechanism associated with shikimate (not present in human metabolism) but not those aspects of the mechanism associated with ATP (widely distributed in human metabolism). We are using site-directed mutagenesis to produce a panel of Mtb shikimate kinase variants for targeted intrinsic protein fluorescence studies. By selectively introducing tryptophan and by extension unique intrinsic fluorescent properties in each variant, we will have an approach to rapidly screen inhibitors for their binding properties including those aspects of the enzyme’s mechanism with which they interfere.

Prison Education Outreach

With nearly 570 prisoners per 100,000 residents, Alabama has the ninth highest incarceration rate in the United States, a statistic made more alarming by the fact that the United States has the highest incarceration rate in the world. There are nearly 28,000 prisoners in the Alabama Department of Corrections (ADOC) system.¹ At the same time, opportunities for prisoners to better themselves through education remain extremely limited. Despite the well-documented benefits of educational programs for prisoners, their families, and their communities, only about 2% of the ADOC prison population is involved in educational programming of any kind. Having successfully implemented several arts and humanities courses, the Alabama Prison Arts + Education Project (APA+EP) sought to address the pressing need for and very strong interest of prison-based students in STEM education opportunities. The SPARKs in Science and Mathematics lecture series was one avenue by which the APA+EP sought to pursue this objective. SPARKs is a seminar series presented by Auburn University faculty from the Colleges of Sciences and Mathematics, Agriculture, and Engineering. Participating faculty each present a single lecture on the area of their expertise in an ADOC facility. Over a 10 – 12 week series, a broad and engaging set of topics are vigorously engaged by the students, serving to pique the interest of students in pursuing additional education in the STEM courses that the APA+EP continues to develop.

I gave my first SPARKs series talk in Spring 2012, and I was won over by a great group of highly engaged students. I received so many questions from the students that an hour of

prepared material took the full two-hour seminar period to cover. That experience changed my life. I was won over by the enthusiasm and engagement of the students so much so that I then not only participated in SPARKs every year, but I sought to recruit as many of my colleagues to participate as possible.

¹Hinds, O. et al. People in Prison 2017. Vera Institute of Justice, https://www.vera.org/publications/people-in-prison-2017

The impact of the SPARKs emanates in multiple directions to the benefit of APA+EP students and teachers, alike. First, the students have the opportunity to engage discussions in STEM topics that they might not encounter otherwise. As one of our students has said, “These [lectures] are more exciting because they all take me to places I’ve never thought of.” As importantly, material presented in the prison classroom never remains contained within that space. Rather, the material is discussed and shared with others who were not in attendance, contributing positively to the education (formal and informal) of others. With respect to an impact on other formal educational programs, one of our students has reported, “I teach pre-GED on Tuesdays and Thursdays and will share some of the General Education materials with the students.” Likewise, by less formal (but no less important) mechanisms, another of our students has written, “These classes have become well known in the camp and the younger men are becoming interested and that’s a good thing, getting them to think in another direction. Those that attend find that they have constructive conversations rather than those of the convict mentality.”

Participation in SPARKs has had a profound impact on me and my teaching, and as a result, has been a benefit to the Auburn University students who come through my courses. First, participation in APA+EP has changed the way I think about prisons, criminal justice reform, and most of all, the many APA+EP students seeking to better themselves through education. Second, teaching in prison-based ‘classrooms’ has done more to spur innovation and creativity in my own teaching than anything else I have done. Although technology can enable teachers to engage students in ways not possible even a few years ago, it is important to recognize that the use of technology is not necessarily the same thing as innovation. Indeed, it is precisely the limitations imposed by the prison ‘classroom’ that have produced some of the most notable changes to my teaching in the university setting. For example, there is no internet access, and it is a felony to carry a cell phone into a prison. In addition, one is confronted with a greatly varied audience in terms of background in the subject. One must find ways to effectively bring the material across to an audience where some of the students present may never have finished sixth grade and others may have Master’s degrees and/or some professional school training. My experiences in SPARKs have made me a better communicator of challenging concepts in my university classrooms. The Molecular Players Theater where I enlist the assistance of students to help me physically act out complex mechanisms was developed in large part through my SPARKs presentations. It is about as low-tech as one could possibly get. For example, the classroom space comes to represent the separation between active sites in the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex, student ‘volunteers’ become cofactors as identified by the paper placards they carry, steps like decarboxylation are manipulations (e.g., literally tearing) of paper representations of substrates, and the channeling of intermediates from one active site to the next has me running from one end of the classroom to the other. By way of the feedback I receive from them in formal teaching evaluations and in informal conversation, these are the kinds of things that my Auburn University students remember most about their time in my courses.

Finally, it is important to mention that innovations also carry the other way (i.e., Auburn to prison classroom), albeit at a slower, security-limited pace. In my most recent SPARKs presentation, I was able to take materials into the facility to carry out various aspects of the peroxidase demonstration for the students. In this way, SPARKs model is one that may be particularly effective in enabling expansion of what is allowed in the prison classroom. By individual faculty presenters going through what is necessary to try a new approach in a

single lecture, prison administration is able to observe, on a small scale, that the activity in question can be carried out while minimizing risks to security. The expectation is that these small steps will pave the way for future prison classroom innovations.

Summer Bridge: Building Awareness of and Engagement in Undergraduate Research

The Summer Bridge Program is designed to assist incoming COSAM freshmen who are from groups underrepresented in STEM careers to make the transition to the collegiate environment. It is a Summer mini-mester of courses that provides foundational content that facilitates success in navigating the challenging courses of COSAM curricula. The program also teaches effective study habits and time-management skills to help increase success in undergraduate study, ultimately leading to graduation.

Data are showing that undergraduate research experiences provide a myriad of benefits to the students who participate.² I have come to the same conclusions by observing the undergraduates who have worked in my laboratory. Participation in undergraduate research, then, represents a powerful instrument that aligns well with the objectives of the Summer Bridge program. Together, my colleague, Dr. Holly Ellis, and I developed a two-part contribution to the Summer Bridge program designed to increase awareness of and participation in undergraduate research.

Research Q and A. The purpose of this session/lecture is to encourage participation of these incoming undergraduates in research programs as their academic programs progress. It is anticipated that promotion of research activities to Summer Bridge participants as they enter the university will lead to their application for fellowships later in their undergraduate programs.

Hands on undergraduate research demonstration. Students participate in a redox biochemistry experiment based on peroxidase chemistry. The results are visually colorful/striking. The exercise is a fun way to get pipettors in hand, propose and perform a short experiment, and evaluate the results. Importantly, among the materials used are modified enzymes originally produced by undergraduate researchers in the Goodwin Laboratory (e.g., Robert Campbell’s KatG[D209-228]).³

Applications of the Peroxidase Demonstration

As mentioned above and illustrated in previous sections (4.A.g Other Contributions to Teaching), the peroxidase system is highly adaptable to a wide range of educational applications. It can be used as a front-of-classroom demonstration of multiple chemical/biochemical concepts (e.g., enzyme catalysis, redox titration, free-radical chemistry, anti-oxidant properties of foods and vitamins, etc.). Similarly, in outreach activities like Summer Bridge, this system is adaptable to hands-on activities of varying depth and complexity, depending on the time available and the goals of a given program. An added attractive feature of this system is its versatility in terms of the materials that can be used and the relatively low cost of purchasing them. As such, I have adapted this system for use by students in Science Olympiad or Teaching Enhancement Award activities, and even at home with commonly available materials.
