STRUCTURE OF 3,4-DICHLOROISOCOUMARIN-INHIBITED FACTOR D
Overview
Factor D (D) is a serine protease essential in the activation of the, alternative complement pathway. Only a few of the common serine protease, inhibitors inhibit D, binding covalently to the serine hydroxyl of the, catalytic triad. 3,4-Dichloroisocoumarin (DCI) is a mechanism-based, inhibitor which inhibits most serine proteases and many esterases, including D. The structure of the enzyme:inhibitor covalent adduct of D, with DCI, DCI:D, to a resolution of 1.8 A is described, which represents, the first structural analysis of D with a mechanism-based inhibitor. The, side chain of the ring-opened DCI moiety of the protein adduct undergoes, chemical modification in the buffered solution, resulting in the formation, of an alpha-hydroxy acid moiety through the nucleophilic substitution of, ...
