Crystallization and preliminary X-ray analysis of l-methionine γ-lyase 1 from Entamoeba histolytica

Journal Article Sato, Dan ; Center for Integrated Medical Research, School of Medicine, Keio University, 35 Shinanomachi, Shinjuku-ku, Tokyo 160-8582 ; Department of Parasitology, Gunma University Graduate School of Medicine, 3-39-22 Showa-machi, Maebashi, Gunma 371-8511 ; ... - Acta Crystallographica. Section F

l-Methionine γ-lyase 1, a key enzyme in sulfur-containing amino-acid degradation, from the protozoan parasite E. histolytica was crystallized in a form suitable for X-ray structure analysis. l-Methionine γ-lyase (MGL) is a pyridoxal phosphate-dependent enzyme that is involved in the degradation of sulfur-containing amino acids. MGL is an attractive drug target against amoebiasis because the mammalian host of its causative agent Entamoeba histolytica lacks MGL. For the development of anti-amoebic agents based on the structure of MGL, one of two MGL isoenzymes (EhMGL1) was crystallized in the monoclinic space group P2{sub 1}, with unit-cell parameters a = 99.12, b = 85.38,more »« less

Direct Observation of Methylmercury and Auranofin Binding to Selenocysteine in Thioredoxin Reductase

Journal Article Pickering, Ingrid J. ; Cheng, Qing ; Rengifo, Emérita Mendoza ; ... - Inorganic Chemistry

Selenoenzymes, containing a selenocysteine (Sec) residue, fulfill important roles in biology. The mammalian thioredoxin reductase selenoenzymes are key regulators of antioxidant defense and redox signaling and are inhibited by methylmercury species and by the gold-containing drug auranofin. It has been proposed that such inhibition is mediated by metal binding to Sec in the enzyme. However, direct structural observations of these classes of inhibitors binding to selenoenzymes have been few to date. Here we therefore have used extended X-ray absorption fine structure as a direct structural probe to investigate binding to the selenium site in recombinant rat thioredoxin reductase 1 (TrxR1).more »« less

Crystal structure of the cysteine protease inhibitor 2 from Entamoeba histolytica: Functional convergence of a common protein fold

Journal Article Casados-Vázquez, Luz E ; Lara-González, Samuel ; Brieb, Luis G - Gene

Cysteine proteases (CP) are key pathogenesis and virulence determinants of protozoan parasites. Entamoeba histolytica contains at least 50 cysteine proteases; however, only three (EhCP1, EhCP2 and EhCP5) are responsible for approximately 90% of the cysteine protease activity in this parasite. CPs are expressed as inactive zymogens. Because the processed proteases are potentially cytotoxic, protozoan parasites have developed mechanisms to regulate their activity. Inhibitors of cysteine proteases (ICP) of the chagasin-like inhibitor family (MEROPS family I42) were recently identified in bacteria and protozoan parasites. E. histolytica contains two ICP-encoding genes of the chagasin-like inhibitor family. EhICP1 localizes to the cytosol, whereasmore »« less
