Alterations in the synthesis of melanin contribute to a number of diseases; therefore, the design of new tyrosinase inhibitors is very important. Mushroom tyrosinase (MT) is a metalloenzyme, which plays an important role in melanin biosynthesis. In this study, the inhibitory effect of a novel designed compound, i.e. 2-((1Z)-(2-(2,4-dinitrophenyl)hydrazin-1-ylidene)methyl)phenol, as a specific ligand which can bind to the copper ion of MT, has been assessed. The ligand was found to competitively inhibit both the cresolase and catecholase activities of MT, with small inhibition constants of 2.8 and 2.6?μM, respectively. Intrinsic fluorescence studies were performed to gain more information on the binding constants. Docking results indicated that the ligand binds to copper ions in the active site of MT via the OH group of the ligand. The ligand makes four hydrogen bonds with aspartic acid and one hydrogen bond with the histidine residue in the active site. Molecular dynamics results show that ligand binds to the MT via both electrostatic and hydrophobic interactions with its different parts. 相似文献

On gamma irradiation of potato tubers at sprout-inhibiting dose (10 krad) the cresolase activity showed a 45% increase while catecholase was reduced by 25%. This reduced the ratio of catecholase to cresolase from 11–12 in unirradiated to 5–6 in irradiated potatoes. Chlorogenic acid oxidation was enhanced by about 25% on irradiation. The increase in the oxidation of p-cresol corresponded with the production of diphenolic compounds. The process of activation of cresolase was slow, reversible and oxygen dependent. A comparative study of the isoenzyme pattern suggested that this activation was due to conformational change, rather than synthesis of new protein. 相似文献

The simultaneous addition of phenylhydrazine and p-cresol to grape catechol oxidase resulted in enhanced oxidation of p-cresol. Carbonyl reagents such as hydrazine, borohydride and semicarbazide also enhanced cresolase activity but had no effect on catecholase activity. Pretreatment of the enzyme with periodate abolished cresolase activity. The effects of periodate and ascorbate or semicarbazide on cresolase activity were mutually reversible. The simultaneous addition of phenylhydrazine and 4-methylcatechol to the enzyme did not result in inhibition of the initial rate of oxidation of the phenolic substrate. It is concluded that phenylhydrazine does not react with a carbonyl group on the enzyme. The possible involvement of conformational changes in the enzyme, determining phenylhydrazine inhibition is discussed. 相似文献
