DIHYDROFOLATE REDUCTASE FROM MYCOBACTERIUM TUBERCULOSIS INHIBITED BY THE ACYCLIC 4R ISOMER OF INH-NADP A DERIVATIVE OF THE PRODRUG ISONIAZID.

Overview

Isoniazid is a key drug used in the treatment of tuberculosis. Isoniazid, is a pro-drug, which, after activation by the katG-encoded catalase, peroxidase, reacts nonenzymatically with NAD(+) and NADP(+) to generate, several isonicotinoyl adducts of these pyridine nucleotides. One of these, the acyclic 4S isomer of isoniazid-NAD, targets the inhA-encoded enoyl-ACP, reductase, an enzyme essential for mycolic acid biosynthesis in, Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Here we show that the acyclic 4R isomer of, isoniazid-NADP inhibits the M. tuberculosis dihydrofolate reductase, (DHFR), an enzyme essential for nucleic acid synthesis. This biologically, relevant form of the isoniazid adduct is a subnanomolar bisubstrate, inhibitor of M. tuberculosis DHFR. Expression of M. tuberculosis DHFR in, ... [(full description)]
