Structure-Function Relationship of Homogentisate 1,2-dioxygenase: Understanding the Genotype-Phenotype Correlations in the Rare Genetic Disease Alkaptonuria.
Alkaptonuria (AKU), a rare genetic disorder, is characterized by the accumulation of homogentisic acid (HGA) in organs, which occurs because the homogentisate 1,2-dioxygenase (HGD) enzyme is not functional due to gene variants. Over time, HGA oxidation and accumulation cause the formation of the ochronotic pigment, a deposit that provokes tissue degeneration and organ malfunction. Here, we report a comprehensive review of the variants so far reported, the structural studies on the molecular consequences of protein stability and interaction, and molecular simulations for pharmacological chaperones as protein rescuers. Moreover, evidence accumulated so far in alkaptonuria research will be re-proposed as the bases for a precision medicine approach in a rare disease.
期刊介绍：
Current Protein & Peptide Science publishes full-length/mini review articles on specific aspects involving proteins, peptides, and interactions between the enzymes, the binding interactions of hormones and their receptors; the properties of transcription factors and other molecules that regulate gene expression; the reactions leading to the immune response; the process of signal transduction; the structure and function of proteins involved in the cytoskeleton and molecular motors; the properties of membrane channels and transporters; and the generation and storage of metabolic energy. In addition, reviews of experimental studies of protein folding and design are given special emphasis. Manuscripts submitted to Current Protein and Peptide Science should cover a field by discussing research from the leading laboratories in a field and should pose questions for future studies. Original papers, research articles and letter articles/short communications are not considered for publication in Current Protein & Peptide Science.
