==Structure of Onchocerca Volvulus Pi-class Glutathione S-transferase==
-
Onchocerciasis is a debilitating parasitic disease caused by the filarial, worm Onchocerca volvulus. Similar to other helminth parasites, O. volvulus, is capable of evading the host's immune responses by a variety of defense, mechanisms, including the detoxification activities of the glutathione, S-transferases (GSTs). Additionally, in response to drug treatment, helminth GSTs are highly up-regulated, making them tempting targets both, for chemotherapy and for vaccine development. We analyzed the, three-dimensional x-ray structure of the major cytosolic GST from O., volvulus (Ov-GST2) in complex with its natural substrate glutathione and, its competitive inhibitor S-hexylglutathione at 1.5 and 1.8 angstrom, resolution, respectively. From the perspective of the biochemical, classification, the Ov-GST2 seems to be related to pi-class GSTs. However, in comparison to other pi-class GSTs, in particular to the host's, counterpart, the Ov-GST2 reveals significant and unusual differences in, the sequence and overall structure. Major differences can be found in, helix alpha-2, an important region for substrate recognition. Moreover, the binding site for the electrophilic co-substrate is spatially increased, and more solvent-accessible. These structural alterations are responsible, for different substrate specificities and will form the basis of, parasite-specific structure-based drug design investigations.
