CRYSTAL STRUCTURES OF NATIVE AND INHIBITED FORMS OF HUMAN CATHEPSIN D: IMPLICATIONS FOR LYSOSOMAL TARGETING AND DRUG DESIGN
Contents |
Overview
Cathepsin D (EC 3.4.23.5) is a lysosomal protease suspected to play, important roles in protein catabolism, antigen processing, degenerative, diseases, and breast cancer progression. Determination of the crystal, structures of cathepsin D and a complex with pepstatin at 2.5 A resolution, provides insights into inhibitor binding and lysosomal targeting for this, two-chain, N-glycosylated aspartic protease. Comparison with the, structures of a complex of pepstatin bound to rhizopuspepsin and with a, human renin-inhibitor complex revealed differences in subsite structures, and inhibitor-enzyme interactions that are consistent with affinity, differences and structure-activity relationships and suggest strategies, for fine-tuning the specificity of cathepsin D inhibitors. Mutagenesis, studies have identified a phosphotransferase recognition region that is, required for oligosaccharide phosphorylation but is 32 A distant from the, N-domain glycosylation site at Asn-70. Electron density for the crystal, structure of cathepsin D indicated the presence of an N-linked, oligosaccharide that extends from Asn-70 toward Lys-203, which is a key, component of the phosphotransferase recognition region, and thus provides, a structural explanation for how the phosphotransferase can recognize, apparently distant sites on the protein surface.
Disease
Known diseases associated with this structure: Ceroid lipofuscinosis, neuronal, 10 OMIM:[116840]
