HKATII IN COMPLEX WITH LIGAND (2R)-N-benzyl-1-[6-methyl-5-(oxan-4-yl)-7-oxo-6H,7H-[1,3]thiazolo[5,4-d]pyrimidin-2-yl]pyrrolidine-2-carboxamide
Structural highlights
FunctionAADAT_HUMAN Transaminase with broad substrate specificity. Has transaminase activity towards aminoadipate, kynurenine, methionine and glutamate. Shows activity also towards tryptophan, aspartate and hydroxykynurenine. Accepts a variety of oxo-acids as amino-group acceptors, with a preference for 2-oxoglutarate, 2-oxocaproic acid, phenylpyruvate and alpha-oxo-gamma-methiol butyric acid. Can also use glyoxylate as amino-group acceptor (in vitro).[1] Publication Abstract from PubMedHuman kynurenine aminotransferase 2 (KAT2) inhibitors could be potentially used to treat the cognitive deficits associated with bipolar disease and schizophrenia. Although, there has been active drug research activity by several industrial and academic groups in developing KAT2 inhibitors over the years, no such compound has proceeded to the clinics. Here, we report two different chemical series of reversible KAT2 inhibitors with sub-micromolar activities. The first series was identified by a high-throughput screening of a diverse random library and the second one by structure-based virtual screening. Two novel crystal structures of KAT2 complexed with different reversible inhibitors were also deposited to the Protein databank which could be useful for future drug discovery efforts.
