Human dipeptidyl peptidase IV in complex with an alpha amino acid inhibitor
Structural highlights
FunctionDPP4_HUMAN Cell surface glycoprotein receptor involved in the costimulatory signal essential for T-cell receptor (TCR)-mediated T-cell activation. Acts as a positive regulator of T-cell coactivation, by binding at least ADA, CAV1, IGF2R, and PTPRC. Its binding to CAV1 and CARD11 induces T-cell proliferation and NF-kappa-B activation in a T-cell receptor/CD3-dependent manner. Its interaction with ADA also regulates lymphocyte-epithelial cell adhesion. In association with FAP is involved in the pericellular proteolysis of the extracellular matrix (ECM), the migration and invasion of endothelial cells into the ECM. May be involved in the promotion of lymphatic endothelial cells adhesion, migration and tube formation. When overexpressed, enhanced cell proliferation, a process inhibited by GPC3. Acts also as a serine exopeptidase with a dipeptidyl peptidase activity that regulates various physiological processes by cleaving peptides in the circulation, including many chemokines, mitogenic growth factors, neuropeptides and peptide hormones. Removes N-terminal dipeptides sequentially from polypeptides having unsubstituted N-termini provided that the penultimate residue is proline.[1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8] [9] Evolutionary ConservationCheck, as determined by ConSurfDB.

Publication Abstract from PubMedA novel series of 4-aminophenylalanine and 4-aminocyclohexylalanine derivatives were designed and evaluated as inhibitors of dipeptidyl peptidase IV (DPP-4). The phenylalanine series afforded compounds such as 10 that were potent and selective (DPP-4, IC(50)=28nM), but exhibited limited oral bioavailability. The corresponding cyclohexylalanine derivatives such as 25 afforded improved PK exposure and efficacy in a murine OGTT experiment. The X-ray crystal structure of 25 bound to the DPP-4 active site is presented. 4-aminophenylalanine and 4-aminocyclohexylalanine derivatives as potent, selective, and orally bioavailable inhibitors of dipeptidyl peptidase IV.,Duffy JL, Kirk BA, Wang L, Eiermann GJ, He H, Leiting B, Lyons KA, Patel RA, Patel SB, Petrov A, Scapin G, Wu JK, Thornberry NA, Weber AE Bioorg Med Chem Lett. 2007 May 15;17(10):2879-85.
