CRYSTAL STRUCTURE OF BIOTIN CARBOXYLASE DOMAIN OF ACETYL-COENZYME A CARBOXYLASE FROM SACCHAROMYCES CEREVISIAE IN COMPLEX WITH SORAPHEN A
Overview
Acetyl-coenzyme A carboxylases (ACCs) have crucial roles in fatty acid, metabolism. Soraphen A, a macrocyclic polyketide natural product, is a, nanomolar inhibitor against the biotin carboxylase (BC) domain of human, yeast, and other eukaryotic ACCs. Here we report the crystal structures of, the yeast BC domain, alone and in complex with soraphen A. Soraphen has, extensive interactions with an allosteric site, about 25 A from the active, site. The specificity of soraphen is explained by large structural, differences between the eukaryotic and prokaryotic BC in its binding site, confirmed by our studies on the effects of single-site mutations in this, binding site. Unexpectedly, our structures suggest that soraphen may bind, in the BC dimer interface and inhibit the BC activity by ... [(full description)]
