Structural basis for the inhibition of human 5,10-methenyltetrahydrofolate synthetase by N10-substituted folate analogues.
5,10-Methenyltetrahydrofolate synthetase (MTHFS) regulates the flow of carbon through the one-carbon metabolic network, which supplies essential components for the growth and proliferation of cells. Inhibition of MTHFS in human MCF-7 breast cancer cells has been shown to arrest the growth of cells. Absence of the three-dimensional structure of human MTHFS (hMTHFS) has hampered the rational desi...

Structural basis for the inhibition of Mycobacterium tuberculosis glutamine synthetase by novel ATP-competitive inhibitors.
Glutamine synthetase (GS, EC 6.3.1.2; also known as gamma-glutamyl:ammonia ligase) catalyzes the ATP-dependent condensation of glutamate and ammonia to form glutamine. The enzyme has essential roles in different tissues and species, which have led to its consideration as a drug or an herbicide target. In this article, we describe studies aimed at the discovery of new antimicrobial agents target...
متن کاملBiochemical and molecular studies of human methenyltetrahydrofolate synthetase.
5-FormylH4folate is administered clinically under the name Leucovorin in association with the antineoplastic agent 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) to enhance the cytotoxic effects of 5-FU. The combination has been shown to be superior to 5-FU alone in the treatment of patients with metastatic colorectal carcinoma. Methenyltetrahydrofolate synthetase (MTHFS) catalyzes the transformation of 5-formyl-tetrah...
متن کاملStructural Basis for Norovirus Inhibition by Human Milk Oligosaccharides.
Histo-blood group antigens (HBGAs) are important binding factors for norovirus infections. We show that two human milk oligosaccharides, 2'-fucosyllactose (2'FL) and 3-fucosyllactose (3FL), could block norovirus from binding to surrogate HBGA samples. We found that 2'FL and 3FL bound at the equivalent HBGA pockets on the norovirus capsid using X-ray crystallography. Our data revealed that 2'FL ...
