2-Benzyl-3,4-iminobutanoic acid (3) was evaluated as a novel class of inhibitor for carboxypeptidase A (CPA). All four stereoisomers of 3 are found to have competitive inhibitory activity for CPA, although their inhibitory potencies differ widely with (2R,3R)-3 being most potent. The molecular modeling study for CPA(2R,3R)-3 complex suggested that the lone pair electrons on the nitrogen of the aziridine ring in the inhibitor forms a coordinative bond with the active site zinc ion and the proton on the nitrogen is engaged in hydrogen bonding with one of the carboxylate oxygens of Glu-270. 相似文献

Both D- and L-isomers of N-(hydroxyaminocarbonyl)phenylalanine () were shown to have strong binding affinity towards carboxypeptidase A (CPA) with D- being more potent than its enantiomer by 3-fold (Chung, S. J.; Kim, D. H. Bioorg. Med. Chem. 2001, 9, 185.). In order to understand the reversed stereochemical preference shown in the CPA inhibition, we have solved the crystal structures of CPA complexed with each enantiometer of up to 1.75 A resolution. Inhibitor L- whose stereochemistry belongs to the stereochemical series of substrate binds CPA like substrate does with its carbonyl oxygen coordinating to the active site zinc ion. Its hydroxyl is engaged in hydrogen bonding with the carboxylate of Glu-270. On the other hand, in binding of D- to CPA, its terminal hydroxyl group is involved in interactions with the active site zinc ion and the carboxylate of Glu-270. In both CPA small middle dot complexes, the phenyl ring in is fitted in the substrate recognition pocket at the S(1)' subsite, and the carboxylate of the inhibitors forms bifurcated hydrogen bonds with the guanidinium moiety of Arg-145 and a hydrogen bond with the guanidinium of Arg-127. In the complex of CPA small middle dotD-, the carboxylate of the inhibitor is engaged in hydrogen bonding with the phenolic hydroxyl of the down-positioned Tyr-248. While the L- binding induces a concerted movement of the backbone amino acid residues at the active site, only the downward movement of Tyr-248 was noted when D- binds to CPA. 相似文献

N-(Hydroxyaminocarbonyl)phenylalanine (1) was designed rationally as a new type of inhibitor for carboxypeptidase A (CPA). The designed inhibitor was readily prepared from phenylalnine benzyl ester in two steps and evaluated to find that rac-1 inhibits CPA in a competitive fashion with the Ki value of 2.09 microM. Surprisingly, inhibitor 1 having the D-configuration is more potent (Ki = 1.54 microM) than its antipode by about 3-fold. A possible explanation for the stereochemistry observed in the inhibition of CPA with 1 is presented. 相似文献

Fusion proteins integrating dual pesticidal functions have been devised over the last 10 years to improve the effectiveness and potential durability of pest-resistant transgenic crops, but little attention has been paid to the impact of the fusion partners on the actual activity of the resulting hybrids. Here we assessed the ability of the rice cysteine protease inhibitor, oryzacystatin I (OCI), to retain its protease inhibitory potency when used as a template to devise hybrid inhibitors with dual activity against papain-like proteases and carboxypeptidase A (CPA). C-terminal variants of OCI were generated by fusing to its C-terminal end: (i) the primary inhibitory site of the small CPA inhibitor potato carboxypeptidase inhibitor (PCI, amino acids 35-39); or (ii) the complete sequence of PCI (a.a. 1-39). The hybrid inhibitors were expressed in E. coli and tested for their inhibitory activity against papain, CPA and digestive cysteine proteases of herbivorous and predatory arthropods. In contrast with the primary inhibitory site of PCI, the entire PCI attached to OCI was as active against CPA as free, purified PCI. The OCI-PCI hybrids also showed activity against papain, but the presence of extra amino acids at the C terminus of OCI negatively altered its inhibitory potency against cysteine proteases. This negative effect, although not preventing dual binding to papain and CPA, was correlated with an increased binding affinity for papain presumably due to non-specific interactions with the PCI domain. These results confirm the potential of OCI and PCI for the design of fusion inhibitors with dual protease inhibitory activity, but also point out the possible functional costs associated with protein domain grafting to recipient pesticidal proteins. 相似文献

The mycotoxin cyclopiazonic acid (CPA) is a potent inhibitor of the sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase. The compound decreases the affinity of the Ca2+-ATPase for Ca2+ and reduces the maximum specific activity of the enzyme. Furthermore, CPA abolishes the cooperativity of Ca2+ transport, showing a Ca2+/ATP ratio approximately 1 at any extent of Ca2+ saturation. There is also an effect on the Ca2+-binding mechanism, where the addition of CPA results in binding of only half-maximal amount of Ca2+ observed in its absence. The experimental data suggest that in the presence of CPA, only a single Ca2+ ion binds to the Ca2+-ATPase. 相似文献

A novel method for the preparation of highly active immobilized enzymes is described. It is based on the binding of enzymes to suitable carriers via monoclonal antibodies, which bind to the enzyme with high affinity without affecting its catalytic activity. The applicability of the method forwarded has been illustrated by the preparation of two samples of highly active immobilized carboxypeptidase A (CPA) preparations as follows: A mouse monoclonal antibody (mAb 100)to CPA that binds to the enzyme with a high-affinity constant without affecting its catalytic activity was prepared, purified, and characterized. Covalent binding of this monoclonal antibody to Eupergit C (EC) or noncovalent binding to Sepharose-protein A (SPA)yielded the conjugated carriers EC-mAb and SPA.mAb, respectively, which reacted specifically with CPA to give the immobilized enzyme preparations EC-mAb.CPA and SPA.mAb.CPA displaying full catalytic activity and improved stability. At pH 7.5 and a temperature range of 4-37 degrees C an apparent binding constant of approximately 10(8)M(-1) characterizing the interaction of CPA with EC-mAb and SPA.mAb, was obtained. To compare the properties of EC-mAb.CPA and SPA.mAb.CPA with those of immobilized CPA preparations obtained by some representative techniques of covalent binding of the enzyme with a corresponding carrier, the following immobilized CPA preparations were obtained and their properties investigated: EC-CPA (I), a preparation obtained by direct binding of EC with CPA; EC-NH-GA-CPA (II), a derivative obtained by covalent binding of CPA to aminated EC via glutaraldehyde; EC-NH-Su-CPA (III), a CPA derivative obtained by binding the enzyme to aminated EC via a succinyl residue; and EC-HMD-GA-CPA (IV), obtained by binding the enzyme via glutaraldehyde to a hexamethylene diamine derivative of EC. Full enzymic activity for all of the bound enzyme, such as that recorded for the immobilized CPA preparations EC-mAb.CPA and SPA.mAb.CPA, was not detected in any of the insoluble covalently bound enzyme preparations. 相似文献

2-Substituted 3-nitropropanoic acids were designed and synthesized as inhibitors against carboxypeptidase A (CPA). (R)-2-Benzyl- 3-nitropropanoic acid showed a potent inhibition against CPA (K(i)=0.15 microM). X-ray crystallography discloses that the nitro group well mimics the transition state occurred in the hydrolysis catalyzed by CPA, that is, an O,O'-bidentate coordination to the zinc ion and the two respective hydrogen bonds with Glu-270 and Arg-127. Because the nitro group is a planar species, we proposed (R)-2-benzyl-3-nitropropanoic acid as a pseudo-transition-state analog inhibitor against CPA. 相似文献

3-Phenyl-2-sulfamoyloxypropionic acid (2), 2-benzyl-3-sulfamoylpropionic acid (3), and N-(N-hydroxysulfamoyl)phenylalanine (5) have been synthesized and evaluated as inhibitors for carboxypeptidase A (CPA) to find that they inhibit the enzyme competitively with the Ki values in the microM range, suggesting that their binding modes to CPA are analogous to each other, and resemble the binding mode of N-sulfamoylphenylalanine (1) that has been established by the X-ray crystallographic method to form a complex with CPA in a manner reminiscent of the binding of a transition state in the catalytic pathway. It was concluded thus that they are a new type of transition state analogue inhibitors for CPA. (R)-N-Hydroxy-N-sulfamoyl-beta-phenylalanine (8) was shown to be also a potent CPA inhibitor (Ki = 39 microM), the high potency of which may be ascribed to the involvement of the hydroxyl in the binding of CPA, most likely forming bidentate coordinative bonds to the zinc ion in CPA together with the sulfamoyl oxygen atom. 相似文献

Cyclopiazonic acid (CPA) is a sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase inhibitor that increases intracellular calcium. The role of CPA in regulating the oxidation and esterification of palmitate, the hydrolysis of intramuscular lipids, and the activation of hormone-sensitive lipase (HSL) was examined in isolated rat soleus muscles at rest. CPA (40 micro M) was added to the incubation medium to levels that resulted in subcontraction increases in muscle tension, and lipid metabolism was monitored using the previously described pulse-chase procedure. CPA did not alter the cellular energy state, as reflected by similar muscle contents of ATP, phosphocreatine, free AMP, and free ADP. CPA increased total palmitate uptake into soleus muscle (11%, P < 0.05) and was without effect on palmitate oxidation. This resulted in greater esterification of exogenous palmitate into the triacylglycerol (18%, P < 0.05) and phospholipid (89%, P < 0.05) pools. CPA decreased (P < 0.05) intramuscular lipid hydrolysis, and this occurred as a result of reduced HSL activity (20%, P < 0.05). Incubation of muscles with 3 mM caffeine, which is also known to increase Ca2+ without affecting the cellular energy state, reduced HSL activity (24%, P < 0.05). KN-93, a calcium/calmodulin-dependent kinase inhibitor (CaMKII), blocked the effects of CPA and caffeine, and HSL activity returned to preincubation values. The results of the present study demonstrate that CPA simultaneously decreases intramuscular triacylglycerol (IMTG) hydrolysis and promotes lipid storage in isolated, intact soleus muscle. The decreased IMTG hydrolysis is likely mediated by reduced HSL activity, possibly via the CaMKII pathway. These responses are not consistent with the increased hydrolysis and decreased esterification observed in contracting muscle when substrate availability and the hormonal milieu are tightly controlled. It is possible that more powerful signals or a higher [Ca2+] may override the lipid-storage effect of the CPA-mediated effects during muscular contractions. 相似文献

Cress (Lepidium sativum L.) roots were treated with 20 microM cyclopiazonic acid (CPA), an inhibitor of the Ca(2+)-transporting ATPases present in the sarcoplasmic/endoplasmic reticulum of animals and the endoplasmic reticulum of plants, in order to investigate its effect on the gravitropic response. Root growth was not significantly reduced by the applied dose of CPA, but the gravitropic response (curvature) was drastically inhibited. We hypothesize that the ER Ca(2+)-ATPase of statocytes is involved in transduction of the gravity stimulus and that CPA disturbs a cytosolic Ca2+ signal necessary for graviperception. 相似文献

G(q) protein-coupled receptor stimulation increases sarcolemmal Na(+)/H(+) exchanger (NHE1) activity in cardiac myocytes by an ERK/RSK-dependent mechanism, most likely via RSK-mediated phosphorylation of the NHE1 regulatory domain. Adenosine A(1) receptor stimulation inhibits this response through a G(i) protein-mediated pathway, but the distal inhibitory signaling mechanisms are unknown. In cultured adult rat ventricular myocytes (ARVM), the A(1) receptor agonist cyclopentyladenosine (CPA) inhibited the increase in NHE1 phosphorylation induced by the alpha(1)-adrenoreceptor agonist phenylephrine, without affecting activation of the ERK/RSK pathway. CPA also induced significant accumulation of the catalytic subunit of type 2A protein phosphatase (PP2A(c)) in the particulate fraction, which contained the cellular NHE1 complement; this effect was abolished by pretreatment with pertussis toxin to inactivate G(i) proteins. Confocal immunofluorescence microscopic imaging of CPA-treated ARVM revealed significant co-localization of PP2A(c) and NHE1, in intercalated disc regions. In an in vitro assay, purified PP2A(c) dephosphorylated a GST-NHE1 fusion protein containing aa 625-747 of the NHE1 regulatory domain, which had been pre-phosphorylated by recombinant RSK; such dephosphorylation was inhibited by the PP2A-selective phosphatase inhibitor endothall. In intact ARVM, the ability of CPA to attenuate the phenylephrine-induced increase in NHE1 phosphorylation and activity was lost in the presence of endothall. These studies reveal a novel role for the PP2A holoenzyme in adenosine A(1) receptor-mediated regulation of NHE1 activity in ARVM, the mechanism of which appears to involve G(i) protein-mediated translocation of PP2A(c) and NHE1 dephosphorylation. 相似文献

The ability of adenosine A(1) receptors to activate type 2a protein phosphatase (PP2a) and account for antiadrenergic effects was investigated in rat myocardial preparations. We observed that the adenosine A(1) receptor agonist N(6)-cyclopentyladenosine (CPA) significantly reduces the isoproterenol-induced increase in left ventricular developed pressure of isolated heats, and this effect is blocked by pretreatment of hearts with the PP2a inhibitor cantharidin. CPA alone or given in conjunction with isoproterenol stimulation decreases phosphorylation of phospholamban and troponin I in ventricular myocytes. These dephosphorylations are blocked by an adenosine A(1) receptor antagonist and by PP2a inhibition with okadaic acid. Adenosine A(1) receptor activation was also shown to increase carboxymethylation of the PP2a catalytic subunit (PP2a-C) and cause translocation of PP2a-C to the particulate fraction in ventricular myocytes. These results support the hypothesis that adenosine A(1) receptor activation leads to methylation of PP2a-C and subsequent translocation of the PP2a holoenzyme. Increases in localized PP2a activity lead to dephosphorylation of key cardiac proteins responsible for the positive inotropic effects of beta-adrenergic stimulation. 相似文献

A variety of modifiers of carboxypeptidase A (CPA) have been investigated in an effort to understand the structural requirements of inhibitors and activators of peptidase activity. It is proposed that an understanding of the mechanism of action of reversible activators of the enzyme may bear on the long standing question of whether the detailed mechanism of peptidase activity is different from that of esterase activity. An analog of the activator 2,2-dimethyl-2-silapentane-5-sulfonate, 5,5-dimethylhexanoate, was found to be a competitive inhibitor of the CPA-catalyzed hydrolysis of benzoylglycyl-L-phenylalanine. The modifier 4-phenyl-3-butenoate (styrylacetic acid) was determined to be an activator. The sulfonates benzene-sulfonate, p-toluenesulfonate, phenylmethanesulfonate, 2-phenylethanesulfonate, and 3-phenylpropanesulfonate were all found to be activators. 相似文献

Despite the investments in malaria research, an effective vaccine has not yet been developed and the causative parasites are becoming increasingly resistant to most of the available drugs. PfATP6, the sarco/endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ pump (SERCA) of P. falciparum, has been recently genetically validated as a potential antimalarial target and cyclopiazonic acid (CPA) has been found to be a potent inhibitor of SERCAs in several organisms, including P. falciparum. In position 263, PfATP6 displays a leucine residue, whilst the corresponding position in the mammalian SERCA is occupied by a glutamic acid. The PfATP6 L263E mutation has been studied in relation to the artemisinin inhibitory effect on P. falciparum and recent studies have provided evidence that the parasite with this mutation is more susceptible to CPA. Here, we characterized, for the first time, the interaction of CPA with PfATP6 and its mammalian counterpart to understand similarities and differences in the mode of binding of the inhibitor to the two Ca2+ pumps. We found that, even though CPA does not directly interact with the residue in position 263, the presence of a hydrophobic residue in this position in PfATP6 rather than a negatively charged one, as in the mammalian SERCA, entails a conformational arrangement of the binding pocket which, in turn, determines a relaxation of CPA leading to a different binding mode of the compound. Our findings highlight differences between the plasmodial and human SERCA CPA‐binding pockets that may be exploited to design CPA derivatives more selective toward PfATP6.

A 120ps molecular dynamics (MD) trajectory was calculated and analyzed for a putative Pro-36-Gly mutant of the potato carboxypeptidase A (CPA) protein inhibitor (PCIm). The mutant protein's fold shows a large degree of stability, judged from its low alpha-carbon r.m.s. deviation from the X-ray structure of the wild type PCI (PCIw). The N-terminal tail of PCIm differs slightly less from the X-ray structure than it does in PCIw, while the mutant's C-terminal tail (the primary contact site with CPA) and residues 13-17 present deviations as they approach each other. Differences in fluctuation pattern exist between PCIm and PCIw in residues 2-4 (the N-terminal tail), 13-17, 22-23, 28-31 (the secondary contact site with CPA) and 37-38 (the C-terminal tail); the latter region is rigidified in PCIm. Results show that the MD method is able to sense local perturbative effects produced by amino acid substitutions in flexible regions of protein molecules. The simulation suggests that the conformation of the C-terminal tail is less favorable for interaction with the target protein in the mutant than it is in the wild type protein. The Pro-36-Gly mutant is predicted to be a less potent inhibitor. 相似文献

A variety of drugs inhibit the conversion of arachidonic acid to prostaglandin G2 by the cyclooxygenase (COX) activity of prostaglandin endoperoxide synthases. Several modes of inhibitor binding in the COX active site have been described including ion pairing of carboxylic acid containing inhibitors with Arg-120 of COX-1 and COX-2 and insertion of arylsulfonamides and sulfones into the COX-2 side pocket. Recent crystallographic evidence suggests that Tyr-385 and Ser-530 chelate polar or negatively charged groups in arachidonic acid and aspirin. We tested the generality of this binding mode by analyzing the action of a series of COX inhibitors against site-directed mutants of COX-2 bearing changes in Arg-120, Tyr-355, Tyr-348, and Ser-530. Interestingly, diclofenac inhibition was unaffected by the mutation of Arg-120 to alanine but was dramatically attenuated by the S530A mutation. Determination of the crystal structure of a complex of diclofenac with murine COX-2 demonstrates that diclofenac binds to COX-2 in an inverted conformation with its carboxylate group hydrogen-bonded to Tyr-385 and Ser-530. This finding represents the first experimental demonstration that the carboxylate group of an acidic non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug can bind to a COX enzyme in an orientation that precludes the formation of a salt bridge with Arg-120. Mutagenesis experiments suggest Ser-530 is also important in time-dependent inhibition by nimesulide and piroxicam. 相似文献

In this study we investigated the contribution of Zn ions to the catalytic and structural thermostability of carboxypeptidase A (CPA). Structural studies on CPA molecule, performed in the presence of a number of ligands, demonstrated the multiple binding models around Zn ions which may affect the enzyme functions. Zinc was reported to bind at various sites in the CPA molecule at room temperature leading to inhibition of its enzymic activity. In this study we found that binding of Zn to CPA molecule followed by exposure to 50 degrees C did not inhibit the enzymic activity but activates and protects it against heat denaturation. The stabilization effect was found to be dependent on the increasing Zn/CPA ratios. The moderate changes of CPA activity as well as the UV and fluorescence spectra analyses indicate that the main function of the newly introduced zinc atoms is structural rather than catalytical. 相似文献

Effects of Purine Nucleotides on the Binding of [3 H]Cyclopentyladenosine to Adenosine A-l Receptors in Rat Brain Membranes 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Adenine nucleotides displace the binding of the selective adenosine A-1 receptor ligand [3H]cyclopentyladenosine (CPA) to rat brain membranes in a concentration-dependent manner, with the rank order of activity being ATP greater than ADP greater than AMP. Binding was also displaced by GTP, ITP, adenylylimidodiphosphate (AppNHp), 2-methylthioATP, and the beta-gamma-methylene isostere of ATP, but was unaffected by the alpha-beta-methylene isosteres of ADP and ATP, and UTP. At ATP concentrations greater than 100 microM, the inhibitory effects on CPA binding were reversed, until at 2 mM ATP, specific binding of CPA was identical to that seen in controls. Concentrations of ATP greater than 10 mM totally inhibited specific binding. Inclusion of the catabolic enzyme adenosine deaminase in the incubation medium abolished the inhibitory effects of ATP, indicating that these were due to adenosine formation, presumably due to ectonucleotidase activity. The inhibitory effects were also attenuated by the alpha-beta-methylene isostere of ATP, an ectonucleotidase inhibitor. Adenosine deaminase, alpha-beta-methylene ATP (100 microM), and beta-gamma-methylene ATP (100 microM) had no effect on the "stimulatory" phase of binding, although GTP (100 microM) slightly attenuated it. Comparison of the binding of [3H]CPA in the absence and presence of 2 mM ATP by saturation analysis showed that the KD and apparent Bmax values were identical. Examination of the pharmacology of the control and "ATP-dependent" CPA binding sites showed slight changes in binding of adenosine agonists and antagonists. The responses observed with high concentrations of ATP were not observed with GTP, AppNHp, the chelating agents EDTA and EGTA, or inorganic phosphate. The divalent cations Mg2+ and Ca2+ at 10 mM attenuated the stimulatory actions of high (2 mM) concentrations of ATP, whereas EGTA and EDTA (10 mM) enhanced the "stimulatory" actions of ATP. EDTA (10 mM) abolished the inhibitory effects of ATP, indicating a specific dependence on Mg2+ for the inhibitory response. The effects of ATP on [3H]CPA binding were reversible for antagonists but not agonists. The mechanism by which ATP reverses its own inhibitory action on adenosine A-1 radioligand binding is unclear, and from the observed actions of the divalent cations and chelating agents probably does not involve a phosphorylation-dependent process. 相似文献
