  ABSTRACT  
 
Membrane-bound glutamate carboxypeptidase II (GCPII) is a zinc metalloenzyme that catalyzes the hydrolysis of the neurotransmitter N-acetyl-L-aspartyl-L-glutamate (NAAG) to N-acetyl-L-aspartate and L-glutamate (which is itself a neurotransmitter). Potent and selective GCPII inhibitors have been shown to decrease brain glutamate and provide neuroprotection in preclinical models of stroke, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, and neuropathic pain. Here, we report crystal structures of the extracellular part of GCPII in complex with both potent and weak inhibitors and with glutamate, the product of the enzyme's hydrolysis reaction, at 2.0, 2.4, and 2.2 A resolution, respectively. GCPII folds into three domains: protease-like, apical, and C-terminal. All three participate in substrate binding, with two of them directly involved in C-terminal glutamate recognition. One of the carbohydrate moieties of the enzyme is essential for homodimer formation of GCPII. The three-dimensional structures presented here reveal an induced-fit substrate-binding mode of this key enzyme and provide essential information for the design of GCPII inhibitors useful in the treatment of neuronal diseases and prostate cancer.

Figure 3.
Figure 3 Surface representation of the 20 Å deep funnel leading to the catalytic site. Blue, side-chain nitrogens of Arg and Lys residues; red, side-chain oxygens of Asp and Glu; green, side-chain carbons of Tyr and Phe residues. Yellow, Zn^2+ ions; inhibitors shown as stick models. (A) Complex with GPI-18431; (B) complex with phosphate. Note the difference in the shape of the pocket because of withdrawal of the 'glutarate sensor' (Y700) in the phosphate complex.
Figure 4.
Figure 4 2F[o]–F[c] electron density maps (stereo) contoured at 1.2 , for the GCPII complex with GPI-18431 (A), phosphate (B), and L-glutamate (C). Zinc ions are shown in dark green, chloride in yellow. Ligands are shown using green sticks and atom-color spheres. Note the different conformation of the 'glutarate sensor' (Lys699 and Tyr700) in (B), which is caused by the absence of a glutarate moiety in the phosphate complex.

The most recent references are shown first. Citation data come partly from CiteXplore and partly from an automated harvesting procedure. Note that this is likely to be only a partial list as not all journals are covered by either method. However, we are continually building up the citation data so more and more references will be included with time. Where a reference describes a PDB structure, the PDB code is shown on the right.
