X-RAY STRUCTURE OF 1-DEOXY-D-XYLULOSE 5-PHOSPHATE REDUCTOISOMERASE, DXR, RV2870C, FROM MYCOBACTERIUM TUBERCULOSIS
Overview
1-deoxy-D-xylulose 5-phosphate reductoisomerase catalyzes the, NADPH-dependent rearrangement and reduction of 1-deoxy-D-xylulose, 5-phosphate to form 2-C-methyl-D-erythritol 4-phosphate, as the second, step of the deoxyxylulose 5-phosphate/methylerythritol 4-phosphate pathway, found in many bacteria and plants. The end product, isopentenyl, diphosphate, is the precursor of various isoprenoids vital to all living, organisms. The pathway is not found in humans; the mevalonate pathway is, instead used for the formation of isopentenyl diphosphate. This, difference, combined with its essentiality, makes the reductoisomerase an, excellent drug target in a number of pathogenic organisms. The structure, of 1-deoxy-D-xylulose 5-phosphate reductoisomerase from Mycobacterium, tuberculosis (Rv2870c) ... [(full description)]
