Crystal structure of Mycobacterium tuberculosis biotin protein ligase in complex with Bio-4
Structural highlights
FunctionBIRA_MYCTU Catalyzes the transfer of biotin onto a conserved lysine residue of the biotin carboxyl carrier protein (BCCP) domain of acetyl-CoA carboxylase and converts it to active holo-BCCP (PubMed:18509457, PubMed:24723382). Forms an acyl-adenylate intermediate (PubMed:18509457, PubMed:24723382). Cannot use GTP or desthiobiotin (PubMed:18509457).[1] [2] Publication Abstract from PubMedThe antibacterial agent Bio-AMS is metabolized in vivo through hydrolysis of the central acyl-sulfamide linker leading to high clearance and release of a moderately cytotoxic metabolite M1. Herein, we disclose analogues designed to prevent the metabolism of the central acyl-sulfamide moiety through steric hindrance or attenuation of the acyl-sulfamide electrophilicity. Bio-9 was identified as a metabolically stable analogue with a single-digit nanomolar dissociation constant for biotin protein ligase (BPL) and minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) against Mycobacterium tuberculosis and Staphylococcus aureus ranging from 0.2 to 20 muM. The antibacterial activity of Bio-9 was dependent on BPL expression level and was more than 70-fold better against a strain underexpressing BPL and, conversely, more than 5-fold less effective against a strain overexpressing BPL. Pharmacokinetic and metabolic studies demonstrated that Bio-9 was metabolically stable in vivo, showing negligible hydrolysis that translated to substantially reduced clearance and concomitantly boosted drug exposure and half-life compared to Bio-AMS.
