Crystal Structures of Human Prostatic Acid Phosphatase in Complex with a Phosphate Ion and alpha-Benzylaminobenzylphosphonic Acid Update the Mechanistic Picture and Offer New Insights into Inhibitor Design

Overview

The X-ray crystal structure of human prostatic acid phosphatase (PAP) in complex with a phosphate ion has been determined at 2.4 A resolution. This structure offers a snapshot of the final intermediate in the catalytic mechanism and does not support the role of Asp 258 as a proton donor in catalysis. A total of eight hydrogen bonds serve to strongly bind the phosphate ion within the active site. Bound PEG molecules from the crystallization matrix have allowed the identification of a channel within the molecule that likely plays a role in molecular recognition and in macromolecular substrate selectivity. Additionally, the structure of PAP in complex with a phosphate derivative, alpha-benzylaminobenzylphosphonic acid, a potent inhibitor (IC(50) = 4 nM), has been determined to 2.9 A resolution. This structure gives new insight into the determinants of binding hydrophobic ligands within the active site and allows us to explain PAP's preference for aromatic substrates.
