Crystal structure of human PNP complexed with guanine
Contents |
Overview
Purine nucleoside phosphorylase (PNP) catalyzes the phosphorolysis of the, N-ribosidic bonds of purine nucleosides and deoxynucleosides. PNP is a, target for inhibitor development aiming at T-cell immune response, modulation and has been submitted to extensive structure-based drug, design. More recently, the 3-D structure of human PNP has been refined to, 2.3A resolution, which allowed a redefinition of the residues involved in, the substrate-binding sites and provided a more reliable model for, structure-based design of inhibitors. This work reports crystallographic, study of the complex of Human PNP:guanine (HsPNP:Gua) solved at 2.7A, resolution using synchrotron radiation. Analysis of the structural, differences among the HsPNP:Gua complex, PNP apoenzyme, and, HsPNP:immucillin-H provides explanation for inhibitor binding, refines the, purine-binding site, and can be used for future inhibitor design.
