Abstract: | There is an urgent need to understand the mechanism of activation of the frontline anti-tuberculosis drug isoniazid by the Mycobacterium tuberculosis catalase-peroxidase. To address this, a combination of NMR spectroscopic, biochemical, and computational methods have been used to obtain a model of the frontline anti-tuberculosis drug isoniazid bound to the active site of the class III peroxidase, horseradish peroxidase C. This information has been used in combination with the new crystal structure of the M. tuberculosis catalase-peroxidase to predict the mode of INH binding across the class I heme peroxidase family. An enzyme-catalyzed mechanism for INH activation is proposed that brings together structural, functional, and spectroscopic data from a variety of sources. Collectively, the information not only provides a molecular basis for understanding INH activation by the M. tuberculosis catalase-peroxidase but also establishes a new conceptual framework for testing hypotheses regarding the enzyme-catalyzed turnover of this compound in a number of heme peroxidases. |
