Disease

HPPD_HUMAN Defects in HPD are the cause of tyrosinemia type 3 (TYRO3) [MIM:276710. TYRO3 is an inborn error of metabolism characterized by elevations of tyrosine in the blood and urine, seizures and mild mental retardation.^[1] ^[2] Defects in HPD are a cause of hawkinsinuria (HAWK) [MIM:140350. HAWK is an inborn error of tyrosine metabolism characterized by failure to thrive, persistent metabolic acidosis, fine and sparse hair, and excretion of the unusual cyclic amino acid metabolite, hawkinsin, in the urine.^[3]

Function

HPPD_HUMAN Key enzyme in the degradation of tyrosine.

Publication Abstract from PubMed

4-Hydroxyphenylpyruvate dioxygenase (HPPD) has attracted increasing attention as a target for treating type I tyrosinemia and other diseases with defects in tyrosine catabolism. Only one commercial drug, 2-(2-nitro-4-trifluoromethylbenzoyl)-1, 3-cyclohexanedione (NTBC), clinically treat type I tyrosinemia, but show some severe side effects in clinical application. Here, we determined the structure of human HPPD-NTBC complex, and developed new pyrazole-benzothiadiazole 2,2-dioxide hybrids from the binding of NTBC. These compounds showed improved inhibition against human HPPD, among which compound a10 was the most active candidate. The Absorption Distribution Metabolism Excretion Toxicity (ADMET) predicted properties suggested that a10 had good druggability, and was with lower toxicity than NTBC. The structure comparison between inhibitor-bound and ligand-free form human HPPD showed a large conformational change of the C-terminal helix. Furthermore, the loop 1 and alpha7 helix were found adopting different conformations to assist the gating of the cavity, which explains the gating mechanism of human HPPD.
