Abstract
|
 |
|
The X-ray crystal structure of the human alpha-thrombin-hirunorm IV complex has
been determined at 2.5 A resolution, and refined to an R-factor of 0.173. The
structure reveals an inhibitor binding mode distinctive of a true hirudin
mimetic, which justifies the high inhibitory potency and the selectivity of
hirunorm IV. This novel inhibitor, composed of 26 amino acids, interacts through
the N-terminal end with the alpha-thrombin active site in a nonsubstrate mode,
and binds specifically to the fibrinogen recognition exosite through the
C-terminal end. The backbone of the N-terminal tripeptide Chg1"-Arg2"-2Na13"
(Chg, cyclohexyl-glycine; 2Na1, beta-(2-naphthyl)-alanine) forms a parallel
beta-strand to the thrombin main-chain segment Ser214-Gly216. The Chg1" side
chain occupies the S2 site, Arg2" penetrates into the S1 specificity site, while
the 2Na13" side chain occupies the aryl binding site. The Arg2" side chain
enters the S1 specificity pocket from a position quite apart from the canonical
P1 site. This notwithstanding, the Arg2" side chain establishes the typical ion
pair with the carboxylate group of Asp189.
