CRYSTAL STRUCTURE OF CYTIDINE DEAMINASE COMPLEXED WITH 3-DEAZACYTIDINE

Overview

The cytidine deaminase substrate analog inhibitor 3-deazacytidine binds, with its 4-amino group inserted into a site previously identified as a, probable binding site for the leaving ammonia group. Binding to this site, shifts the pyrimidine ring significantly further from the activated water, molecule than the position it occupies in either of two complexes with, compounds capable of hydrogen bonding at the 3-position of the ring [Xiang, et al. (1995) Biochemistry 34, 4516-4523]. Difference Fourier maps between, the deazacytidine, dihydrozebularine, and zebularine--hydrate inhibitor, complexes suggest that the ring itself moves successively toward the, activated water, leaving the amino group behind in this site as the, substrate complex approaches the transition state. They also reveal, ... [(full description)]
