Sterol demethylation inhibitor (DMI) fungicides are widely used to control fungi pathogenic to humans and plants. Resistance to DMIs is mediated either through alterations in the structure of the target enzyme CYP51 (encoding 14α-demethylase), through increased expression of the CYP51 gene, or through increased expression of efflux pumps. We found that CYP51 expression in DMI-resistant (DMIR) isolates of the cherry leaf spot pathogen Blumeriella jaapii was increased 5- to 12-fold compared to that in DMI-sensitive (DMIS) isolates. Analysis of sequences upstream of CYP51 in 59 DMIR isolates revealed that various forms of a truncated non-long terminal direct repeat long interspersed nuclear element retrotransposon were present in all instances. Similar inserts upstream of CYP51 were not present in any of 22 DMIS isolates examined. 相似文献

Novel cholesterol biosynthesis inhibitors, a group of pyridylethanol(phenylethyl)amine derivatives, were synthesized. Sterol profiling assay in the human hepatoma HepG2 cells revealed that compounds target human lanosterol 14alpha-demethylase (CYP51). Structure-activity relationship study of the binding with the overexpressed human CYP51 indicates that the pyridine binds within the heme binding pocket in an analogy with the azoles. 相似文献

We prepared a soluble monomeric form of bovine cytochrome P450 lanosterol 14α-demethylase (CYP51), which in mammals is a ubiquitously expressed membrane protein of the endoplasmic reticulum. We constructed two variants of bovine CYP51 (bCYP51) with different truncations and modifications in their N-terminal membrane-spanning domains. Both of these were expressed in Escherichia coli at levels of 500 nmol/l. The protein variants were purified and tested for the solubility in the absence of detergent. Variant bCYP51-d1 exhibited ∼10-fold better solubility over variant bCYT51-d2. The bCYP51-d1 eluted as a single peak in size-exclusion chromatography, corresponding to its monomeric form. The activity of bCYP51-d1 is similar to that of recombinant human CYP51 with a non-truncated membrane-spanning region. High solubility and low tendency to non-specific oligomer formation make bCYP51-d1 a promising candidate for successful crystallization, which may finally allow the structural determination of this important mammalian enzyme. 相似文献

Obtusifoliol 14alpha-demethylase is a plant orthologue of sterol 14alpha-demethylase (CYP51) essential in sterol biosynthesis. We have prepared CYP51 antisense Arabidopsis in order to shed light on the sterol and steroid hormone biosynthesis in plants. Arabidopsis putative CYP51 cDNA (AtCYP51) was obtained from Arabidopsis expressed sequence tag (EST) library and its function was examined in a yeast lanosterol 14alpha-demethylase (Erg11) deficient mutant. A recombinant AtCYP51 protein fused with a yeast Erg11 signal-anchor peptide was able to complement the erg11 mutation, which confirmed AtCYP51 to be a functional sterol 14alpha-demethylase. AtCYP51 was then used to generate transgenic Arabidopsis by transforming with pBI vector harboring AtCYP51 in the antisense direction under CaMV35S promoter. The resulting transgenic plants were decreased in accumulation of AtCYP51 mRNA and increased in the amount of endogenous obtusifoliol. They showed a semidwarf phenotype in the early growth stage and a longer life span than control plants. This newly found phenotype is different from previously characterized brassinosteroid (BR)-deficient campesterol biosynthesis mutants. 相似文献

A universal step in the biosynthesis of membrane sterols and steroid hormones is the oxidative removal of the 14alpha-methyl group from sterol precursors by sterol 14alpha-demethylase (CYP51). This enzyme is a primary target in treatment of fungal infections in organisms ranging from humans to plants, and development of more potent and selective CYP51 inhibitors is an important biological objective. Our continuing interest in structural aspects of substrate and inhibitor recognition in CYP51 led us to determine (to a resolution of 1.95A) the structure of CYP51 from Mycobacterium tuberculosis (CYP51(Mt)) co-crystallized with 4,4'-dihydroxybenzophenone (DHBP), a small organic molecule previously identified among top type I binding hits in a library screened against CYP51(Mt). The newly determined CYP51(Mt)-DHBP structure is the most complete to date and is an improved template for three-dimensional modeling of CYP51 enzymes from fungal and prokaryotic pathogens. The structure demonstrates the induction of conformational fit of the flexible protein regions and the interactions of conserved Phe-89 essential for both fungal drug resistance and catalytic function, which were obscure in the previously characterized CYP51(Mt)-estriol complex. DHBP represents a benzophenone scaffold binding in the CYP51 active site via a type I mechanism, suggesting (i) a possible new class of CYP51 inhibitors targeting flexible regions, (ii) an alternative catalytic function for bacterial CYP51 enzymes, and (iii) a potential for hydroxybenzophenones, widely distributed in the environment, to interfere with sterol biosynthesis. Finally, we show the inhibition of M. tuberculosis growth by DHBP in a mouse macrophage model. 相似文献

The CYP51 family is an intriguing subject for fundamental P450 structure/function studies and is also an important clinical drug target. This review updates information on the variety of the CYP51 family members, including their physiological roles, natural substrates and substrate preferences, and catalytic properties in vitro. We present experimental support for the notion that specific conserved regions in the P450 sequences represent a CYP51 signature. Two possible roles of CYP51 in P450 evolution are discussed and the major approaches for CYP51 inhibition are summarized. 相似文献

Conservation and cloning of CYP51: a sterol 14 alpha-demethylase from Mycobacterium smegmatis 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

The genetic locus encoding cytochrome P450 51 (CYP51; P450(14DM)) in Mycobacterium smegmatis is described here together with confirmation of activity in lanosterol 14 alpha-demethylation. The protein bound azole antifungals with high affinity and the rank order based on affinity matched the ranked order for microbiological sensitivity of the organism, thus supporting a possible role for CYP51 as a target in the antimycobacterial activity of these compounds. Non-saponifiable lipids were extracted from the bacteria grown on minimal medium. Unlike a previous report using growth on complex medium, no cholesterol was detected in two strains of M. smegmatis, but a novel lipid was detected. The genetic locus of CYP51 is discussed in relation to function; it is conserved as part of a putative operon in M. smegmatis, Mycobacterium tuberculosis, Mycobacterium avium, and Mycobacterium bovis and consists of six open-reading frames including two CYPs and a ferredoxin under a putative Tet-R regulated promoter. 相似文献

Leishmaniasis is a major health problem that affects populations of ~90 countries worldwide, with no vaccine and only a few moderately effective drugs. Here we report the structure/function characterization of sterol 14α-demethylase (CYP51) from Leishmania infantum. The enzyme catalyzes removal of the 14α-methyl group from sterol precursors. The reaction is essential for membrane biogenesis and therefore has great potential to become a target for antileishmanial chemotherapy. Although L. infantum CYP51 prefers C4-monomethylated sterol substrates such as C4-norlanosterol and obtusifoliol (V(max) of ~10 and 8 min(-1), respectively), it is also found to 14α-demethylate C4-dimethylated lanosterol (V(max) = 0.9 min(-1)) and C4-desmethylated 14α-methylzymosterol (V(max) = 1.9 min(-1)). Binding parameters with six sterols were tested, with K(d) values ranging from 0.25 to 1.4 μM. Thus, L. infantum CYP51 is the first example of a plant-like sterol 14α-demethylase, where requirements toward the composition of the C4 atom substituents are not strict, indicative of possible branching in the postsqualene portion of sterol biosynthesis in the parasite. Comparative analysis of three CYP51 substrate binding cavities (Trypanosoma brucei, Trypanosoma cruzi, and L. infantum) suggests that substrate preferences of plant- and fungal-like protozoan CYP51s largely depend on the differences in the enzyme active site topology. These minor structural differences are also likely to underlie CYP51 catalytic rates and drug susceptibility and can be used to design potent and specific inhibitors. 相似文献

Upon sequence alignment of CYP51 sterol 14alpha-demethylase from animals, plants, fungi, and bacteria, arginine corresponding to Arg-448 of CYP51 in Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MT) is conserved near the C terminus of all family members. In MTCYP51 Arg-448 forms a salt bridge with Asp-287, connecting beta-strand 3-2 with helix J. Deletion of the three C-terminal residues of MTCYP51 has little effect on expression of P450 in Escherichia coli. However, truncation of the fourth amino acid (Arg-448) completely abolishes P450 expression. We have investigated whether Arg-448 has other structural or functional roles in addition to folding and whether its conservation reflects conservation of a common folding pathway in the CYP51 family. Characterization of wild type protein and three mutants, R448K, R448I, and R448A, including examination of catalytic activity, secondary and tertiary structure analysis by circular dichroism and tryptophan fluorescence, and studies of both equilibrium and temporal MTCYP51 unfolding behavior, shows that Arg-448 does not play any role in P450 function or maintenance of the native structure. C-terminal truncation of Candida albicans and human CYP51 orthologs reveals that, despite conservation in sequence, the requirement for arginine at the homologous C-terminal position in folding in E. coli is not conserved. Thus, despite similar spatial folds, functionally related but evolutionarily distinct P450s can follow different folding pathways. 相似文献

CYP51s form the only family of P450 proteins conserved in evolution from prokaryotes to fungi, plants and mammals. In all eukaryotes, CYP51s catalyse 14alpha-demethylation of sterols. We have recently isolated two CYP51 cDNAs from sorghum [Bak, S., Kahn, R.A., Olsen, C. E. & Halkier, B.A. (1997) Plant J. 11, 191-201] and wheat [Cabello-Hurtado, F., Zimmerlin, A., Rahier, A., Taton, M., DeRose, R., Nedelkina, S., Batard, Y., Durst, F., Pallett, K.E. & Werck-Reichhart, D. (1997) Biophys. Biochem. Res. Commun. 230, 381-385]. Wheat and sorghum CYP51 proteins show a high identity (92%) compared with their identity with their fungal and mammalian orthologues (32-39%). Data obtained with plant microsomes have previously suggested that differences in primary sequences reflect differences in sterol pathways and CYP51 substrate specificities between animals, fungi and plants. To investigate more thoroughly the properties of the plant CYP51, the wheat enzyme was expressed in yeast strains overexpressing different P450 reductases as a fusion with either yeast or plant (sorghum) membrane targeting sequences. The endogenous sterol demethylase gene (ERG11) was then disrupted. A sorghum-wheat fusion protein expressed with the Arabidopsis thaliana reductase ATR1 showed the highest level of expression and activity. The expression induced a marked proliferation of microsomal membranes so as to obtain 70 nmol P450.(L culture)-1, with CYP51 representing 1.5% of microsomal protein. Without disruption of the ERG11 gene, the expression level was fivefold reduced. CYP51 from wheat complemented the ERG11 disruption, as the modified yeasts did not need supplementation with exogenous ergosterol and grew normally under aerobic conditions. The fusion plant enzyme catalysed 14alpha-demethylation of obtusifoliol very actively (Km,app = 197 microm, kcat = 1.2 min-1) and with very strict substrate specificity. No metabolism of lanosterol and eburicol, the substrates of the fungal and mammalian CYP51s, nor metabolism of herbicides and fatty acids was detected in the recombinant yeast microsomes. Surprisingly lanosterol (Ks = 2.2 microM) and eburicol (Ks = 2.5 microm) were found to bind the active site of the plant enzyme with affinities higher than that for obtusifoliol (Ks = 289 microM), giving typical type-I spectra. The amplitudes of these spectra, however, suggested that lanosterol and eburicol were less favourably positioned to be metabolized than obtusifoliol. The recombinant enzyme was also used to test the relative binding constants of two azole compounds, LAB170250F and gamma-ketotriazole, which were previously reported to be potent inhibitors of the plant enzyme. The Ks of plant CYP51 for LAB170250F (0.29 microM) and gamma-ketotriazole (0.40 microM) calculated from the type-II sp2 nitrogen-binding spectra were in better agreement with their reported effects as plant CYP51 inhibitors than values previously determined with plant microsomes. This optimized expression system thus provides an excellent tool for detailed enzymological and mechanistic studies, and for improving the selectivity of inhibitory molecules. 相似文献

Sexual crosses were used to determine the genetic basis of resistance to the sterol 14 alpha-demethylase inhibitor fungicide prochloraz in the cereal eyespot pathogen Tapesia yallundae. Three different crosses between sensitive parental strains (22-432 and 22-433 [the concentration required to inhibit growth by 50% (IG(50)) for each was =0.03 mg/liter]) and field isolates from France and New Zealand with differing levels of resistance (PR11 [IG(50) = 0.5 mg/liter], PR1 [IG(50) = 1.0 mg/liter], and 11-3-18 [IG(50) = 2.4 mg/liter]) yielded progeny showing a bimodal distribution, with an even number of sensitive and resistant progeny. This indicated the segregation of a single major gene for resistance in each cross, which was confirmed by the use of backcrosses, crosses between F(1) progeny, and control crosses between sensitive parents. However, there was also evidence of additional quantitative genetic components responsible for the increased IG(50)s of the more resistant isolates. A further cross was made between isolate PR11 and an F(1) progeny arising from isolate 11-3-18, and this also yielded progeny which were entirely prochloraz resistant. This suggested that resistance genes were allelic in these two isolates, with resistance conferred by a gene at the same locus (or closely linked loci), despite the fact that the isolates (PR11 and 11-3-18) originated from different continents. 相似文献

We studied six clinical isolates of Candida albicans. All six isolates showed high level resistance to fluconazole (minimum inhibitory concentrations 64 microg/ml) with varying degrees of cross-resistance to other azoles but not to amphotericin B. Neither higher dosage nor upregulation of the gene encoding the cytochrome P- 450 lanosterol 14 alpha-demethylase (CYP51A1 or P-450LDM) was responsible for fluconazole resistance. The resistant and the susceptible isolates accumulated similar amounts of azoles. To examine whether resistance to fluconazole in these clinical isolates of C. albicans is mediated by an altered target of azole action, we cloned the structural gene encoding P-450LDM from the fluconazole resistant isolates. The amino acid sequences of the P-450LDMs from the isolates were deduced from the gene sequences and compared to the P-450LDM sequence of the fluconazole-susceptible C. albicans B311. The enzymes from the clinical isolates showed 2 to 7 amino acid variations scattered across the molecules encompassing 10 different loci. One-half of the amino acid changes obtained were conserved substitutions (E116D, K143R, E266D, D278E, R287K) compared to the susceptible strain. Non-conserved substitutions were T128K, R267H, S405F, G450E and G464S, three of which are in and around the hemebinding region of the molecule. R287K is the only amino acid change that was found in all six clinical isolates. One or more of these mutational alterations may lead to the expression of an azole-resistant enzyme. 相似文献
