JMJD2A catalyses the demethylation of di‐ and trimethylated lysine residues in histone tails and is a target for the development of new anticancer medicines. Mechanistic details of demethylation are yet to be elucidated and are important for the understanding of epigenetic processes. We have evaluated the initial step of histone demethylation by JMJD2A and demonstrate the dramatic effect of the protein environment upon oxygen binding using quantum mechanics/molecular mechanics (QM/MM) calculations. The changes in electronic structure have been studied for possible spin states and different conformations of O2, using a combination of quantum and classical simulations. O2 binding to this histone demethylase is computed to occur preferentially as an end‐on superoxo radical bound to a high‐spin ferric centre, yielding an overall quintet ground state. The favourability of binding is strongly influenced by the surrounding protein: we have quantified this effect using an energy decomposition scheme into electrostatic and dispersion contributions. His182 and the methylated lysine assist while Glu184 and the oxoglutarate cofactor are deleterious for O2 binding. Charge separation in the superoxo‐intermediate benefits from the electrostatic stabilization provided by the surrounding residues, stabilizing the binding process significantly. This work demonstrates the importance of the extended protein environment in oxygen binding, and the role of energy decomposition in understanding the physical origin of binding/recognition. 相似文献

New monolithic HPLC columns were prepared by γ-radiation-triggered polymerization of hexyl methacrylate and ethylene glycol dimethacrylate monomers in the presence of porogenic solvents. Polymerization was carried out directly within capillary (250-200 μm I.D.) and nano (100-75 μm I.D.) fused-silica tubes yielding highly efficient columns for cap(nano)-LC applications. The columns were applied in the complete separation of core (H2A, H2B, H3, and H4) and linker (H1) histones under gradient elution with UV and/or electrospray ionization (ESI) ion trap mass spectrometry (MS) detections. Large selectivity towards H1, H2A-1, H2A-2, H2B, H3-1, H3-2 and H4 histones and complete separation were obtained within 8 min time windows, using fast gradients and very high linear flow velocities, up to 11 mm/s for high throughput applications. The method developed was the basis of a simple and efficient protocol for the evaluation of post-translational modifications (PTMs) of histones from NCI-H460 human non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and HCT-116 human colorectal carcinoma cells. The study was extended to monitoring the level of histone acetylation after inhibition of Histone DeACetylase (HDAC) enzymes with suberoylanilide hydroxamic acid (SAHA), the first HDAC inhibitor approved by the FDA for cancer therapy. Attractive features of our cap(nano)-LC/MS approach are the short analysis time, the minute amount of sample required to complete the whole procedure and the stability of the polymethacrylate-based columns. A lab-made software package ClustMass was ad hoc developed and used to elaborate deconvoluted mass spectral data (aligning, averaging, clustering) and calculate the potency of HDAC inhibitors, expressed through a Relative half maximal Inhibitory Concentration parameter, namely R_IC(50) and an averaged acetylation degree. 相似文献

The human KDM7 subfamily histone H3 Nϵ-methyl lysine demethylases PHF8 (KDM7B) and KIAA1718 (KDM7A) have different substrate selectivities and are linked to genetic diseases and cancer. We describe experimentally based computational studies revealing that flexibility of the region linking the PHD finger and JmjC domains in PHF8 and KIAA1718 regulates interdomain interactions, the nature of correlated motions, and ultimately H3 binding and demethylation site selectivity. F279S an X-linked mental retardation mutation in PHF8 is involved in correlated motions with the iron ligands and second sphere residues. The calculations reveal key roles of a flexible protein environment in productive formation of enzyme-substrate complexes and suggest targeting the flexible KDM7 linker region is of interest from a medicinal chemistry perspective. 相似文献

A series of thiol-based indeno[1,2-c]pyrazoles and benzoindazole compounds was designed and synthesized according to the structural specificity of histone deacetylase VI(HDAC6) and the structural characteristics of HDAC inhibitors. The inhibitory activities of the target compounds against HDAC6 and HDAC1 were screened by fluorescence analysis. Most of the target compounds showed moderate inhibitory activity against HDAC6(IC50=44—598 nmol/L). Among them, compound A-4 displayed the highest selectivity against HDAC6 and similar inhibitory activity(IC50=44 nmol/L) to that of the positive drug SAHA(IC50=41 nmol/L) against HDAC6. 相似文献

基于24个目前已知的氧肟酸类组蛋白去乙酰化酶抑制剂,我们运用Catalyst软件建立了一个三维药效团模型。其中,最好的药效团模型1,包含了四个化学特征(一个氢键供体,一个芳环和两个疏水基),相关系数达到0.946,并由另外20个化合物进行了测试验证。我们第一次特征性描述了组蛋白去乙酰化酶的帽子(CAP)部分。我们的研究结果对于设计全新组蛋白去乙酰化酶抑制剂具有很好的指导作用。 相似文献

Histone deacetylases (HDACs) remove acetyl groups from acetylated lysine residues and have a large variety of substrates and interaction partners. Therefore, it is not surprising that HDACs are involved in many diseases. Most inhibitors of zinc-dependent HDACs (HDACis) including approved drugs contain a hydroxamate as a zinc-binding group (ZBG), which is by far the biggest contributor to affinity, while chemical variation of the residual molecule is exploited to create more or less selectivity against HDAC isozymes or other metalloproteins. Hydroxamates have a propensity for nonspecificity and have recently come under considerable suspicion because of potential mutagenicity. Therefore, there are significant concerns when applying hydroxamate-containing compounds as therapeutics in chronic diseases beyond oncology due to unwanted toxic side effects. In the last years, several alternative ZBGs have been developed, which can replace the critical hydroxamate group in HDACis, while preserving high potency. Moreover, these compounds can be developed into highly selective inhibitors. This review aims at providing an overview of the progress in the field of non-hydroxamic HDACis in the time period from 2015 to present. Formally, ZBGs are clustered according to their binding mode and structural similarity to provide qualitative assessments and predictions based on available structural information. 相似文献

组蛋白翻译后修饰是一种表观遗传学修饰,参与调控细胞的新陈代谢等重要生理过程。蛋白质组学发展迅速,使监控组蛋白翻译后修饰的动态变化成为可能。目前主要有3种无标定量方法(谱图计数法、峰面积积分法和信号强度法),但何种定量方法更可靠尚未见系统性的详细报道。在稳定同位素标记细胞培养技术(SILAC)基础上,对去乙酰化酶抑制剂(SAHA)调控细胞乙酰化修饰水平的定量数据进行对比,比较3种无标定量方法对组蛋白翻译后修饰进行的定量分析,利用定量结果的标准差(SD)评估定量的可靠性,最终发现基于峰面积积分法定量的结果可靠性最高。该研究对难以进行同位素标记实验的样本分析,尤其对临床样本、大样本的组蛋白修饰谱分析具有重要参考意义。 相似文献

由于大量可能蛋白质变体以及每一个翻译后修饰大量可能位点的存在,核心组蛋白上密集的组合式翻译后修饰的自上而下表征一直是一个巨大的分析挑战。结合高分辨串级质谱,基于同位素质荷比和轮廓指纹比对的整体蛋白质数据库搜索引擎ProteinGoggle 2.0在组蛋白翻译后修饰的自上而下鉴定方面拥有诸多独特的优势。该文报道ProteinGoggle 2.0对HeLa核心组蛋白H4的数据库搜索及蛋白质变体的鉴定结果。基于从UniProt网站下载的人类核心组蛋白H4的纯文本文件和“鸟枪法”注释,ProteinGoggle 2.0首先创建包含所有可能蛋白质变体的理论数据库;从纯文本文件中提取的信息主要是氨基酸序列、可能的翻译后修饰(单甲基化、二甲基化、三甲基化、乙酰化和磷酸化)及氨基酸变异(A77→P)。在控制质谱水平假阳性率低于1%的前提下,共鉴定到426个蛋白质变体,这是目前为止H4蛋白质变体的最全报道。这些ProteinGoggle 2.0鉴定到的H4蛋白质变体也与之前报道的ProSightPC 2.0的鉴定结果进行了肩并肩比较。总而言之,ProteinGoggle 2.0可以对具有复杂组合修饰及氨基酸变异的蛋白质组进行数据库搜索和蛋白质变体鉴定。 相似文献
