Mechanism of Feedback Allosteric Inhibition of ATP Phosphoribosyltransferase
MtATP-phosphoribosyltransferase catalyzes the first and committed step in l-histidine biosynthesis in Mycobacterium tuberculosis and is therefore subjected to allosteric feedback regulation. Because of its essentiality, this enzyme is being studied as a potential target for novel anti-infectives. To understand the basis for its regulation, we characterized the allosteric inhibition using gel fi...
متن کاملMechanism for allosteric inhibition of an ATP-sensitive ribozyme.
We report the structural basis for the modulation of an ATP-sensitive ribozyme that was engineered by modular rational design. This allosteric ribozyme is composed of two independently functioning domains, one a receptor for ATP and the other a self-cleaving ribozyme. When fused in the appropriate fashion, the conjoined aptamer-ribozyme construct functions as an allosteric ribozyme that is inhi...
متن کاملFeedback inhibition of ammonium uptake by a phospho-dependent allosteric mechanism in Arabidopsis.
The acquisition of nutrients requires tight regulation to ensure optimal supply while preventing accumulation to toxic levels. Ammonium transporter/methylamine permease/rhesus (AMT/Mep/Rh) transporters are responsible for ammonium acquisition in bacteria, fungi, and plants. The ammonium transporter AMT1;1 from Arabidopsis thaliana uses a novel regulatory mechanism requiring the productive inter...
متن کاملFeedback inhibition of an allosteric triphosphopyridine nucleotide-specific isocitrate dehydrogenase.
Evidence is presented for the concerted inhibition of a TPN+-specXc isocitrate dehydrogenase from Crifhidia fascicutafa by two biosynthetic intermediates, oxalacetate and glyoxylate. This inhibition is competitive with substrate, and the presence of either inhibitory compound greatly increases the afhnity of the enzyme for the second. This inhibition has been shown not to be due to the formatio...
متن کاملThe Mechanism of Allosteric Inhibition of Protein Tyrosine Phosphatase 1B
As the prototypical member of the PTP family, protein tyrosine phosphatase 1B (PTP1B) is an attractive target for therapeutic interventions in type 2 diabetes. The extremely conserved catalytic site of PTP1B renders the design of selective PTP1B inhibitors intractable. Although discovered allosteric inhibitors containing a benzofuran sulfonamide scaffold offer fascinating opportunities to overc...
