==Plasmodium falciparum homolog of Uridine phosphorylase/Purine nucleoside phosphorylase==
-
Purine metabolism in the parasite Plasmodium has been identified as a, promising target for antimalarial therapies. Purine nucleoside, phosphorylase (PNP) is part of a salvage pathway for the biosynthesis of, purines, which are essential for parasite survival. Two crystal structures, of PNP from Plasmodium falciparum (PfPNP) in two space groups, each with a, single subunit in the asymmetric unit, are described here. One structure, refined to 2.4 A, has an empty nucleoside-binding site and a sulfate ion, bound in the phosphate-binding pocket. The second structure, refined to, 2.0 A, has the substrate inosine bound to the active centre. Structure, comparison reveals alterations in the active site upon ligand binding. The, new structures presented here specifically highlight the likely roles of, Asp206 and two loops flanking the active site: the beta7-alpha6 loop, (residues approximately 161-169) and the beta9-alpha8 loop (residues, approximately 208-223). Comparison with PNP in complex with, transition-state inhibitors suggests that the purine substrate moves, towards the phosphate substrate, rather than vice versa, upon forming the, transition state. The single-substrate-containing PfPNP structures also, appear to be more flexible than PfPNP bound to inhibitors. Together, these, structures serve as a basis for better understanding of ligand binding and, mechanism that can be further exploited to optimize the specificity of, anti-PfPNP drugs.

[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/PNPH_PLAF7 PNPH_PLAF7] As part of the purine salvage pathway, catalyzes the phosphorolytic breakdown of the N-glycosidic bond in the beta-(deoxy)ribonucleoside molecules, with the formation of the corresponding free purine bases and pentose-1-phosphate (PubMed:18957439, PubMed:14982926, PubMed:16131758, PubMed:19575810, PubMed:24416224, PubMed:29440412). Preferentially acts on inosine and guanosine, and to a lesser extent on 2'-deoxyguanosine and guanosine (PubMed:14982926, PubMed:16131758, PubMed:19575810). Also catalyzes the phosphorylation of S-methyl-5'-thioinosine (MTI) to hypoxanthine; MTI is produced by adenosine deaminase (ADA)-mediated breakdown of S-methyl-5'-thioadenosine (MTA), a major by-product of polyamine biosynthesis (PubMed:18957439, PubMed:14982926, PubMed:24416224). Generates hypoxanthine from both the purine salvage pathway and from polyamine metabolism which is required for nucleic acids synthesis (PubMed:18957439, PubMed:14982926, PubMed:24416224). Has no activity towards adenosine (By similarity).[UniProtKB:Q8T9Z7]<ref>PMID:14982926</ref> <ref>PMID:16131758</ref> <ref>PMID:18957439</ref> <ref>PMID:19575810</ref> <ref>PMID:24416224</ref> <ref>PMID:29440412</ref>
