英文摘要 | Thymidylate synthase(TS) is a key enzyme in the de novo biosynthesis of thymidine monophosphate,serving as a well-known drug target in chemotherapy against cancers and infectious diseases.Additional to its clinical value,TS is supposed to be a promising drug target in aquatic-disease control.To facilitate designing pathogen-specific TS inhibitors for shrimp-disease control,we report the crystal structures of TS from Litopenaeus vannamei(LvTS) in the apo form,LvTS-dUMP complex and LvTS-dUMP-raltitrexed complex at 2.27 ?,1.54 ?,and 1.56 A resolution,respectively.LvTS shares a similar fold with known TSs,existing as a dimer in the crystal.The apo LvTS and LvTS-dUMP take an open conformation,and raltitrexed binding induces structural changes into a closed conformation in LvTSdUMP-raltitrexed.Compared to those in other known TS-dUMP-raltitrexed complexes with the closed conformation,the C-terminal loop in LvTS-dUMP-raltitrexed shifts its position away from the bound raltitrexed;the distance between C6 of dUMP and Sy of the catalytic cysteine is obviously longer than that in the known TS structures with closed conformations,resembling that in the TS structures with open conformations.Other species-specific interactions with dUMP and raltitrexed are also observed.Therefore,LvT S-dUMP-raltitrexed adopts a loosely dosed conformation with structural features inte rmediate between the closed and the open conformations that were reported in other TSs.Our study provides the first crustcean TS structure,and reveals species-specific interactions between TSs and the ligands,which would facilitate designing pathogen-specific TS inhibitors for shrimp-disease control. |
