Biological role
Structure
Interaction
Cap Analog Binding (Guanosine 5'-Triphosphate)
binds to the enzyme in a pocket near AdoHcy. (Tyr 145, Leu216, Leu217, Asp218, Ser219, Tyr284) are involded in the binding of the cap analog, more precisely they interact with guanine and with the The cap makes Van der Walls contacts with side chains fromGTP makes a hydrogen bond with and a water mediated bond with . [1]
As we can see on the figure above[2] , the enzyme specifically binds to guanine. This specificity is achieved through different recognitions. The N-1 atom of adenine is unprotonated, this prevent the interaction of adenine with Ecm1. Ecm1 contact the of guanine and permit an additional discrimination between guanine and adenine. Moreover the fact that ITP is not a substrate for Ecm1 shows that the interactions between Ecm1 and are important for substrate binding.We also remark that the methyltransferase is not able to discrminate between and desoxyribose nucleoside sugars.
AdoHcy Binding (S-Adenosyl-L-Homocysteine)
The mRNA Cap Methyltransferase bind to which is the product of the methyl donor AdoMet after the methylation. The interaction describe here are applicable to AdoMet too. AdoHcys is in a pocket formed by amino acids of segment 2.(Lys54, Gly72, Asp78, Asp94, Ile95, Asp122, Ser124, Gln140, Phe141, Ser142) are involved in the stabilisation of AdoHcys.
The interactions between AdoHcys and the enzyme are made of : - Hydrogen bonds mediated by - Van der Walls interactions mediated by - An electrostatic interaction mediated by- A water mediated contact mediated by [1]
Mechanism
This enzyme catalyse N-methyl transfer from AdoMet (S-adenosylmethionine) to GpppRNA, this reaction produce 7-methyl-GpppRNA and AdoHcy. This reaction is made through a SN2 mechanism. We remark that there is no contact between the enzyme and or the AdoMet methyl carbon.Indeed the enzyme does not stabilize the transition state of the chemical reaction, does not promote the activation of the nucleophile or the expulsion of the leaving group. mRNA Cap Methyltransferase brings the two substrates closer and orientates the substrates to facilitate the methyl transfer. [1]
Inhibition
- AdoHcy
- Sinefugin
- Aza-AdoMet & carbocyclic aza-AdoMet
Aza-AdoMet and carbocyclic aza-AdoMet are analogs of AdoMet too. In these two molecules the sulfur atom is replaced by nitrogen. In the carbocyclic derivate the O4-atom of the ribose is replaced by a methylene group. These two molecules are weak inhibitors of Ecm1. The IC50 value of Aza-AdoMet is 100μm and of carbocyclic aza-AdoMet is 35μm [2]
