The enzyme tRNA‐guanine transglycosylase has been identified as a drug target for the foodborne illness shigellosis. A key challenge in structure‐based design for this enzyme is the filling of the polar ribose‐34 pocket. Herein, we describe a novel series of ligands consisting of furanoside‐appended lin‐benzoguanines. They were designed to replace a conserved water cluster and differ by the functional groups at C(2) and C(3) of the furanosyl moiety being either OH or OMe. The unfavorable desolvation of Asp102 and Asp280, which are located close to the ribose‐34 pocket, had a significant impact on binding affinity. While the enzyme has tRNA as its natural substrate, X‐ray co‐crystal structures revealed that the furanosyl moieties of the ligands are not accommodated in the tRNA ribose‐34 site, but at the location of the adjacent phosphate group. A remarkable similarity of the position of the oxygen atoms in these two structures suggests furanosides as a potential phosphate isoster. 相似文献

The foodborne illness shigellosis is caused by Shigella bacteria that secrete the highly cytotoxic Shiga toxin, which is also formed by the closely related enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC). It has been shown that tRNA-guanine transglycosylase (TGT) is essential for the pathogenicity of Shigella flexneri. Herein, the molecular recognition properties of a guanine binding pocket in Zymomonas mobilis TGT are investigated with a series of lin-benzohypoxanthine- and lin-benzoguanine-based inhibitors that bear substituents to occupy either the ribose-33 or the ribose-34 pocket. The three inhibitor scaffolds differ by the substituent at C(6) being H, NH(2), or NH-alkyl. These differences lead to major changes in the inhibition constants, pK(a) values, and binding modes. Compared to the lin-benzoguanines, with an exocyclic NH(2) at C(6), the lin-benzohypoxanthines without an exocyclic NH(2) group have a weaker affinity as several ionic protein-ligand hydrogen bonds are lost. X-ray cocrystal structure analysis reveals that a new water cluster is imported into the space vacated by the lacking NH(2) group and by a conformational shift of the side chain of catalytic Asp102. In the presence of an N-alkyl group at C(6) in lin-benzoguanine ligands, this water cluster is largely maintained but replacement of one of the water molecules in the cluster leads to a substantial loss in binding affinity. This study provides new insight into the role of water clusters at enzyme active sites and their challenging substitution by ligand parts, a topic of general interest in contemporary structure-based drug design. 相似文献

Bacteria-gut epithelial interplay and the mucosal immune response are the most critical issues in determining the fate of bacterial infection and the severity of diseases. Shigella species (abbreviated here as Shigella), the causative agent of bacillary dysentery (shigellosis), are highly adapted human pathogens that are capable of invading and colonizing the intestinal epithelium, which results in severe inflammatory colitis. Shigella secrete a large and diverse number (more then 50) of effectors via the type III secretion system (TTSS) during infection, some of which are delivered into the surrounding bacterial space and some others into the host cell cytoplasm and nucleus. The delivered effectors mimic and usurp the host cellular functions, and modulate host cell signaling and immune response, thus playing pivotal roles in promoting bacterial infection and circumventing host defense systems. This article overviews the pathogenic characteristics of Shigella, and highlights current topics related to the bacterial infectious stratagem executed by the TTSS-secreted effectors. Though bacterial stratagems and the molecular mechanisms of infection vary greatly among pathogens, the current studies of Shigella provide a paradigm shift in bacterial pathogenesis. 相似文献

The tRNA‐modifying enzyme tRNA–guanine transglycosylase (TGT) is essential for the pathogenic mechanism of Shigella flexneri, the causing agent of the bacterial diarrheal disease shigellosis. Herein, the synthesis of a new class of rationally designed 6‐amino‐imidazo[4,5‐g]quinazolin‐8(7H)‐one‐ (lin‐benzoguanine) based inhibitors of TGT are reported. In order to accommodate a small hydrophobic crevice opening near the binding site of ribose‐34, 2‐aminoethyl substituents were introduced in position 4 of the heterocyclic scaffold. For this purpose, a synthetic sequence consisting of iodination, Suzuki cross‐coupling, hydroboration, Mitsunobu reaction, and Gabriel synthesis was employed, furnishing a primary amine that served as a common intermediate for the preparation of a series of derivatives. The resulting ligands displayed very low inhibition constants, down to Ki=2 nM . Substantial additional inhibitory potency is gained by interaction of terminal lipophilic groups attached to the substituent at position 4 with the hydrophobic crevice shaped by Val45 and Leu68. At the same time, the secondary ammonium center in the substituent displaces a cluster of water molecules, solvating the catalytic residues Asp102 and Asp280, without loss in binding affinity. In addition, a synthetic intermediate with an unusual 3,6,7,8,9,10‐hexahydroimidazo[4,5‐g][1,3]benzodiazepine core, as confirmed by X‐ray analysis, is reported. 相似文献

Shigellosis is one of the most severe diarrheal diseases worldwide without any efficient treatment so far. The enzyme tRNA–guanine transglycosylase (TGT) has been identified as a promising target for small‐molecule drug design. Herein, we report a transition‐state analogue, a small, immucillin‐derived inhibitor, as a new lead structure with a novel mode of action. The complex inhibitor synthesis was accomplished in 18 steps with an overall yield of 3 %. A co‐crystal structure of the inhibitor bound to Z. mobilis TGT confirmed the predicted conformation of the immucillin derivative in the enzyme active site. 相似文献
