Human CYP11B2 and human adrenodoxin in complex with fadrozole
Structural highlights
DiseaseC11B2_HUMAN Familial hyperreninemic hypoaldosteronism type 1;Familial hyperaldosteronism type I. The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry. The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry. The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry. The molecular defect causing hyperaldosteronism familial 1 is an anti-Lepore-type fusion of the CYP11B1 and CYP11B2 genes. The hybrid gene has the promoting part of CYP11B1, ACTH-sensitive, and the coding part of CYP11B2. FunctionADX_HUMAN Participates in the synthesis of thyroid hormones. Essential for the synthesis of various steroid hormones, participates in the reduction of mitochondrial cytochrome P450 for steroidogenesis. Transfers electrons from adrenodoxin reductase to CYP11A1, a cytochrome P450 that catalyzes cholesterol side-chain cleavage.[1] [2] C11B2_HUMAN Preferentially catalyzes the conversion of 11-deoxycorticosterone to aldosterone via corticosterone and 18-hydroxycorticosterone.[3] Publication Abstract from PubMedAldosterone is the major mineralocorticoid in the human body controlling blood pressure and salt homeostasis. Overproduction of aldosterone leads to primary aldosteronism which is the most common form of secondary hypertension with limited treatment options. Production of aldosterone by cytochrome P450 11B2 (CYP11B2, aldosterone synthase) requires two reduction events with the electrons delivered by the iron/sulfur protein adrenodoxin. Very limited information is available about the structural and functional basis of adrenodoxin/CYP11B2 interaction which impedes the development of new treatment options for primary aldosteronism. A systematic study was carried out to determine if adrenodoxin interaction with CYP11B2 might also have an allosteric component in addition to electron transfer. Indeed, local increases in adrenodoxin concentration promote binding of the substrate 11-deoxycorticosterone and the inhibitor osilodrostat (LCI699) in the active site-over 17 A away-as well as enhancing the inhibitory effect of this latter drug. CYP11B2 structure in complex with adrenodoxin identified specific residues at the protein-protein interface interacting via five salt bridges and four hydrogen bonds. Comparisons with cholesterol-metabolizing CYP11A1 and cortisol-producing CYP11B1, which also bind adrenodoxin, revealed substantial structural differences in these regions. The structural and functional differences between different P450 interactions with adrenodoxin may provide valuable clues for an orthogonal treatment approach for primary aldosteronism by specifically targeting the interaction between CYP11B2 and adrenodoxin.
