STRUCTURE OF ANOPHELES GAMBIAE 3-HYDROXYKYNURENINE TRANSAMINASE
Overview
In Anopheles gambiae, the vector for the most deadly malaria parasite, Plasmodium falciparum, xanthurenic acid (XA) plays a key role in parasite, gametogenesis and fertility. In mosquitoes, XA is produced by, transamination of 3-hydroxykynurenine (3-HK), a reaction that represents, the main route to prevent the accumulation of the potentially toxic 3-HK, excess. Interfering with XA metabolism in A. gambiae therefore appears an, attractive avenue for the development of malaria transmission-blocking, drugs and insecticides. We have determined the crystal structure of A., gambiae 3-HK transaminase in its pyridoxal 5'-phosphate form and in, complex with a newly synthesized competitive enzyme inhibitor. Structural, inspection of the enzyme active site reveals the key molecular, determinants ... [(full description)]
