Abstract
The ribonuclease T1 family, including RNase Po1 secreted by Pleurotus ostreatus, exhibits antitumor activity. Here, we resolved the Po1/guanosine-3′-monophosphate complex (3′GMP) structure at 1.75 Å. Structure comparison and fragment molecular orbital (FMO) calculation between the apo form and the Po1/3′GMP complex identified Phe38, Phe40, and Glu42 as the key binding residues. Two types of the RNase/3′GMP complex in RNasePo1 and RNase T1 were homologous to Po1, and FMO calculations elucidated that the biprotonated histidine on the β3 sheet (His36) on the β3 sheet and deprotonated Glu54 on the β4 sheet were advantageous to RNase activity. Moreover, tyrosine (Tyr34) on the β3 sheet was elucidated as a crucial catalytic residues. Mutation of Tyr34 with phenylalanine decreased RNase activity and diminished antitumor efficacy compared to that in the wild type. This suggests the importance of RNase activity in antitumor mechanisms.
期刊介绍:
ACS Bio & Med Chem Au is a broad scope open access journal which publishes short letters comprehensive articles reviews and perspectives in all aspects of biological and medicinal chemistry. Studies providing fundamental insights or describing novel syntheses as well as clinical or other applications-based work are welcomed.This broad scope includes experimental and theoretical studies on the chemical physical mechanistic and/or structural basis of biological or cell function in all domains of life. It encompasses the fields of chemical biology synthetic biology disease biology cell biology agriculture and food natural products research nucleic acid biology neuroscience structural biology and biophysics.The journal publishes studies that pertain to a broad range of medicinal chemistry including compound design and optimization biological evaluation molecular mechanistic understanding of drug delivery and drug delivery systems imaging agents and pharmacology and translational science of both small and large bioactive molecules. Novel computational cheminformatics and structural studies for the identification (or structure-activity relationship analysis) of bioactive molecules ligands and their targets are also welcome. The journal will consider computational studies applying established computational methods but only in combination with novel and original experimental data (e.g. in cases where new compounds have been designed and tested).Also included in the scope of the journal are articles relating to infectious diseases research on pathogens host-pathogen interactions therapeutics diagnostics vaccines drug-delivery systems and other biomedical technology development pertaining to infectious diseases.
