CRYSTAL STRUCTURE OF PORCINE TESTICULAR CARBONYL REDUCTASE/ 20BETA-HYDROXYSTEROID DEHYDROGENASE

Overview

Porcine testicular carbonyl reductase (PTCR) belongs to the short chain, dehydrogenases/reductases (SDR) superfamily and catalyzes the, NADPH-dependent reduction of ketones on steroids and prostaglandins. The, enzyme shares nearly 85% sequence identity with the NADPH-dependent human, 15-hydroxyprostaglandin dehydrogenase/carbonyl reductase. The tertiary, structure of the enzyme at 2.3 A reveals a fold characteristic of the SDR, superfamily that uses a Tyr-Lys-Ser triad as catalytic residues, but, exhibits neither the functional homotetramer nor the homodimer that, distinguish all SDRs. It is the first known monomeric structure in the SDR, superfamily. In PTCR, which is also active as a monomer, a 41-residue, insertion immediately before the catalytic Tyr describes an all-helix, subdomain that packs against interfacial helices, eliminating the, four-helix bundle interface conserved in the superfamily. An additional, anti-parallel strand in the PTCR structure also blocks the other, strand-mediated interface. These novel structural features provide the, basis for the scaffolding of one catalytic site within a single molecule, of the enzyme.
