Abstract
|
 |
|
Acetyl-coenzyme A carboxylases (ACCs) are important targets for the development
of therapeutic agents against obesity, diabetes, and other diseases. CP-640186
is a potent inhibitor of mammalian ACCs and can reduce body weight and improve
insulin sensitivity in test animals. It is believed to target the
carboxyltransferase (CT) domain of these enzymes. Here we report the crystal
structure of the yeast CT domain in complex with CP-640186. The inhibitor is
bound in the active site at the interface of a dimer of the CT domain. CP-640186
has tight interactions with the putative biotin binding site in the CT domain
and demonstrates a distinct mode of inhibiting the CT activity as compared to
the herbicides that inhibit plant ACCs. The affinity of inhibitors for the CT
domain has been assessed using kinetic and fluorescence anisotropy binding
studies. The structural information identifies three regions for drug binding in
the active site of CT.
