Crystal structure of MabA-C60V/G139A/S144L
Overview
The MabA protein from Mycobacterium tuberculosis is a validated drug, target. Previous structural studies of this protein showed dynamic, behaviour in the catalytic site and described motion between an open, ;active' holo form (with NADP) and a closed ;inactive' apo form (without, NADP). Here, a mutation (G139A) is reported that leads to complete protein, inactivation and freezes the catalytic site into its closed form, even in, the presence of the cofactor. This observation suggests a new way to, develop anti-MabA drugs via protein stabilization of the ;inactive' form.
