Covalent bond formation between cysteine of PPARg-LBD and iodoacetic acid
Structural highlights
DiseasePPARG_HUMAN Note=Defects in PPARG can lead to type 2 insulin-resistant diabetes and hyptertension. PPARG mutations may be associated with colon cancer. Defects in PPARG may be associated with susceptibility to obesity (OBESITY) [MIM:601665. It is a condition characterized by an increase of body weight beyond the limitation of skeletal and physical requirements, as the result of excessive accumulation of body fat.[1] Defects in PPARG are the cause of familial partial lipodystrophy type 3 (FPLD3) [MIM:604367. Familial partial lipodystrophies (FPLD) are a heterogeneous group of genetic disorders characterized by marked loss of subcutaneous (sc) fat from the extremities. Affected individuals show an increased preponderance of insulin resistance, diabetes mellitus and dyslipidemia.[2] [3] Genetic variations in PPARG can be associated with susceptibility to glioma type 1 (GLM1) [MIM:137800. Gliomas are central nervous system neoplasms derived from glial cells and comprise astrocytomas, glioblastoma multiforme, oligodendrogliomas, and ependymomas. Note=Polymorphic PPARG alleles have been found to be significantly over-represented among a cohort of American patients with sporadic glioblastoma multiforme suggesting a possible contribution to disease susceptibility. FunctionPPARG_HUMAN Receptor that binds peroxisome proliferators such as hypolipidemic drugs and fatty acids. Once activated by a ligand, the receptor binds to a promoter element in the gene for acyl-CoA oxidase and activates its transcription. It therefore controls the peroxisomal beta-oxidation pathway of fatty acids. Key regulator of adipocyte differentiation and glucose homeostasis. Acts as a critical regulator of gut homeostasis by suppressing NF-kappa-B-mediated proinflammatory responses.[4] [5] [6] Publication Abstract from PubMedCovalent ligands are generally filtered out of chemical libraries used for high-throughput screening, because electrophilic functional groups are considered to be pan-assay interference compounds (PAINS). Therefore, screening strategies that can distinguish true covalent ligands from PAINS are required. Hydrogen/deuterium-exchange mass spectrometry (HDX-MS) is a powerful tool for evaluating protein stability. Here, we report a covalent modifier screening approach using HDX-MS. In this study, HDX-MS was used to classify peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARgamma) and vitamin D receptor ligands. HDX-MS could discriminate the strength of ligand-protein interactions. Our HDX-MS screening method identified LT175 and nTZDpa, which can bind concurrently to the PPARgamma ligand-binding domain (PPARgamma-LBD) with synergistic activation. Furthermore, iodoacetic acid was identified as a novel covalent modifier that stabilizes the PPARgamma-LBD.
