Small-Molecule Activators of Glucose-6-phosphate Dehydrogenase (G6PD) Bridging the Dimer Interface
Abstract
We recently identified AG1, a small-molecule activator that functions by promoting oligomerization of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) to the catalytically competent forms. Biochemical experiments indicate that the activation of G6PD by the original hit molecule (AG1) is noncovalent and that one C2-symmetric region of the G6PD homodimer is important for ligand function. Consequently, the disulfide in AG1 is not required for activation of G6PD, and a number of analogues were prepared without this reactive moiety. Our study supports a mechanism of action whereby AG1 bridges the dimer interface at the structural nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADP+) binding sites of two interacting G6PD monomers. Small molecules that promote G6PD oligomerization have the potential to provide a first-in-class treatment for G6PD deficiency. This general strategy could be applied to other enzyme deficiencies in which control of oligomerization can enhance enzymatic activity and/or stability.
