چکیده
The three-dimensional structures of D-Phe-Pro-Arg-chloromethyl ketone-inhibited thrombin in complex with Tyr-63-sulfated hirudin (ternary complex) and of thrombin in complex with the bifunctional inhibitor D-Phe-Pro-Arg-Pro-(Gly)4-hirudin (CGP 50,856, binary complex) have been determined by X-ray crystallography in crystal forms different from those described by Skrzypczak-Jankun et al. (Skrzypczak-Jankun, E., Carperos, V.E., Ravichandran, K.G., & Tulinsky, A., 1991, J. Mol. Biol. 221, 1379-1393). In both complexes, the interactions of the C-terminal hirudin segments of the inhibitors binding to the fibrinogen-binding exosite of thrombin are clearly established, including residues 60-64, which are disordered in the earlier crystal form. The interactions of the sulfate group of Tyr-63 in the ternary complex structure explain why natural sulfated hirudin binds with a 10-fold lower K(i) than the desulfated recombinant material. In this new crystal form, the autolysis loop of thrombin (residues 146-150), which is disordered in the earlier crystal form, is ordered due to crystal contacts. Interactions between the C-terminal fragment of hirudin and thrombin are not influenced by crystal contacts in this new crystal form, in contrast to the earlier form. In the bifunctional inhibitor-thrombin complex, the peptide bond between Arg-Pro (P1-P1') seems to be cleaved.

Structure of the hirugen and hirulog 1 complexes of alpha-thrombin.
The isomorphous structures of the hirugen (N-acetylhirudin 53'-64' with sulfato-Tyr63') and hirulog 1 (D-Phe-Pro-Arg-Pro-(Gly)4 desulfato-Tyr63'-hirugen) complexes of human alpha-thrombin have been determined and refined at 2.2 A resolution to crystallographic R-factors of 0.167 and 0.163, respectively. The binding of hirugen to thrombin is similar to that of the binding of the C-terminal dodec...
متن کاملP 96: Role of Thrombin in Inflammatory Central Nervous System (CNS) Diseases
Thrombin is a multifunctional enzyme which has key roles in coagulation cascade and inflammatory events. The pro-inflammatory functions of thrombin occur by different mechanisms including increasing mast cell degranulation, up-regulating the expression of cell adhesion molecules (CAMs) and promoting the secretion of inflammatory chemokines and cytokines. Dysregulated signaling functions of thro...
متن کاملDistinct binding sites of Ala48-hirudin1-47 and Ala48-hirudin48-65 on alpha-thrombin.
The interaction of alpha-thrombin with Ala48-hirudin, Ala48-hirudin1-47, and Ala48-hirudin48-65 was analyzed. Mutations at Pro48 were found to cause only slight changes in the kon (human: 3.1 +/- 0.3 x 10(8) M-1 s-1; bovine: 1.03 +/- 0.3 x 10(8) M-1 s-1) and koff (human: 0.4 +/- 0.2 x 10(-3) s-1; bovine: 2.9 +/- 0.4 x 10(-3) s-1) rate constants for the formation of the thrombin-hirudin complex....
متن کاملCatabolism of hirudin and thrombin-hirudin complexes in the rat.
The metabolic fate of the anticoagulant protein, hirudin, and its complex with thrombin are presently unknown. Therefore we have labelled hirudin and human thrombin-hirudin complex with the residualizing label dilactitol-125I-tyramine (*I-DLT) in order to identify their tissue sites of catabolism in the rat. The rapid plasma clearance of hirudin after intravenous injection was unaffected by *I-...
متن کاملA theoretical study on halogen-π interactions: X-C2-Y…C8H8 complexes
M06-2X functional was employed to study halogen-π interactions in X-C2-Y…C8H8 complexes (X, Y=H, F, Cl, and Br). In fact, interactions of mono- or di-halogenated acetylenes and planar cyclooctatetraene as an anti-aromatic π system were considered. Relationship between binding energies of the complexes and charge transfer effects was investigated. Also, electronic charge density values were calc...
