X-RAY CRYSTAL STRUCTURE OF HUMAN ALPHA-THROMBIN WITH A TRIPEPTIDE PHOSPHONATE INHIBITOR.
Overview
X-ray crystallographic studies of human alpha-thrombin with a novel, synthetic inhibitor, an acyl (alpha-aminoalkyl)phosphonate, reveal the, existence of a pentacovalent phosphorus intermediate state. Crystal, structures of the complex of alpha-thrombin with the phosphonate compound, were determined independently using crystals of different ages. The first, structure, solved from a crystal less than seven days old, showed a, pentacoordinated phosphorus moiety. The second structure, determined from, a crystal that was 12 weeks old, showed a tetracoordinated phosphorus, moiety. In the first structure, a water molecule, made nucleophilic by, coordination to His57 of alpha-thrombin, is bonded to the pentacoordinated, phosphorus atom. Its position is approximately equivalent to that occupied, ... [(full description)]
