STRUCTURE OF HUMAN NEUTROPHIL ELASTASE IN COMPLEX WITH A PEPTIDE CHLOROMETHYL KETONE INHIBITOR AT 1.84-ANGSTROMS RESOLUTION

Overview

Human neutrophil elastase (HNE) has been implicated as a major contributor, to tissue destruction in various disease states, including emphysema. The, structure of HNE, at neutral pH, in complex with, methoxysuccinyl-Ala-Ala-Pro-Ala chloromethyl ketone (MSACK), has been, solved and refined to an R factor of 16.4% at 1.84-A resolution. Results, are consistent with the currently accepted mechanism of peptide, chloromethyl ketone inhibition of serine proteases, in that MSACK, cross-links the catalytic residues His-57 and Ser-195. The structure of, the HNE-MSACK complex is compared with that of porcine pancreatic elastase, in complex with L-647,957, a beta-lactam inhibitor of both elastases. The, distribution of positively charged residues on HNE is highly asymmetric, and may play a role in its specific association with the underlying, negatively charged proteoglycan matrix of the neutrophil granules in which, the enzyme is stored.

Disease

Known diseases associated with this structure: Hematopoiesis, cyclic OMIM:[130130], Neutropenia, congenital OMIM:[130130]
