Crystal structures of human and mouse ketohexokinase provide a structural basis for species- and isoform-selective inhibitor design.
A molecular understanding of the proteins involved in fructose metabolism is essential for controlling the current spread of fructose-related obesity, diabetes and related adverse metabolic states in Western populations. Fructose catabolism starts with the phosphorylation of D-fructose to fructose 1-phosphate by ketohexokinase (KHK). KHK exists in two alternatively spliced isoforms: the hepatic and intestinal isoform KHK-C and the peripheral isoform KHK-A. Here, the structure of apo murine KHK (mKHK), which differs from structures of human KHK in overall conformation, is reported. An isoform-selective ligand, which offers a 50-fold higher potency on mKHK and human KHK-A compared with KHK-C, is further characterized. In mKHK, large-scale conformational changes are observed upon ligand binding. The structures suggest a combined strategy for the design of species- and isoform-selective KHK inhibitors.
期刊介绍:
Acta Crystallographica Section D welcomes the submission of articles covering any aspect of structural biology, with a particular emphasis on the structures of biological macromolecules or the methods used to determine them.
Reports on new structures of biological importance may address the smallest macromolecules to the largest complex molecular machines. These structures may have been determined using any structural biology technique including crystallography, NMR, cryoEM and/or other techniques. The key criterion is that such articles must present significant new insights into biological, chemical or medical sciences. The inclusion of complementary data that support the conclusions drawn from the structural studies (such as binding studies, mass spectrometry, enzyme assays, or analysis of mutants or other modified forms of biological macromolecule) is encouraged.
Methods articles may include new approaches to any aspect of biological structure determination or structure analysis but will only be accepted where they focus on new methods that are demonstrated to be of general applicability and importance to structural biology. Articles describing particularly difficult problems in structural biology are also welcomed, if the analysis would provide useful insights to others facing similar problems.
