چکیده

AccD6 (acetyl coenzyme A (CoA) carboxylase), plays an important role in mycolic acid synthesis of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb). Induced gene expression by isoniazid (isonicotinylhydrazine - INH), anti-tuberculosis drug) shows the expression of accD6. It is our interest to study the binding of activated INH with the AccD6 model using molecular docking procedures. The study predicts a primary binding site for activated INH (isonicotinyl acyl radical) in AccD6 as a potential target.

The Role of N-Acetyl Transferases on Isoniazid Resistance from Mycobacterium tuberculosis and Human: An In Silico Approach

BACKGROUND N-acetyl transferase (NAT) inactivates the pro-drug isoniazid (INH) to N-acetyl INH through a process of acetylation, and confers low-level resistance to INH in Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB). Similar to NAT of MTB, NAT2 in humans performs the same function of acetylation. Rapid acetylators, may not respond to INH treatment efficiently, and could be a potential risk factor, for the...

Structure, activity, and inhibition of the Carboxyltransferase β-subunit of acetyl coenzyme A carboxylase (AccD6) from Mycobacterium tuberculosis.

In Mycobacterium tuberculosis, the carboxylation of acetyl coenzyme A (acetyl-CoA) to produce malonyl-CoA, a building block in long-chain fatty acid biosynthesis, is catalyzed by two enzymes working sequentially: a biotin carboxylase (AccA) and a carboxyltransferase (AccD). While the exact roles of the three different biotin carboxylases (AccA1 to -3) and the six carboxyltransferases (AccD1 to ...

Isolation and Characterization of Acyl Coenzyme A Carboxylases from Mycobacterium tuberculosis and Mycobacterium bovis, Which Produce Multiple Methyl- Branched Mycocerosic Acidst

Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Ra and M. bovis BCG produce multiple methyl-branched fatty acids called mycocerosic acids, presumably from methylmalonyl coenzyme A (CoA). An acyl-CoA carboxylase was isolated from these organisms at a 30 to 50%fo yield by a purification procedure involving ammonium sulfate fractionation, gel ifitration, and affinity chromatography with a monomeric avidin-Sepharose...

Crystal structure of the essential biotin‐dependent carboxylase AccA3 from Mycobacterium tuberculosis

Biotin-dependent acetyl-CoA carboxylases catalyze the committed step in type II fatty acid biosynthesis, the main route for production of membrane phospholipids in bacteria, and are considered a key target for antibacterial drug discovery. Here we describe the first structure of AccA3, an essential component of the acetyl-CoA carboxylase system in Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTb). The structure...

The influence of AccD5 on AccD6 carboxyltransferase essentiality in pathogenic and non-pathogenic Mycobacterium

Malonyl-coenzyme A (CoA) is a crucial extender unit for the synthesis of mycolic and other fatty acids in mycobacteria, generated in a reaction catalyzed by acetyl-CoA carboxylase. We previously reported on the essentiality of accD6Mtb encoding the functional acetyl-CoA carboxylase subunit in Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Strikingly, the homologous gene in the fast-growing, non-pathogenic Mycobac...
