Structural Insights Into the High Selectivity of the Anti-Diabetic Drug Mitiglinide.

ABSTRACT: Mitiglinide is a highly selective fast-acting anti-diabetic drug that induces insulin secretion by inhibiting pancreatic K_ATP channels. However, how mitiglinide binds K_ATP channels remains unknown. Here, we show the cryo-EM structure of the SUR1 subunit complexed with mitiglinide. The structure reveals that mitiglinide binds inside the common insulin secretagogue-binding site of SUR1, which is surrounded by TM7, TM8, TM16, and TM17. Mitiglinide locks SUR1 in the NBD-separated inward-facing conformation. The detailed structural analysis of the mitiglinide-binding site uncovers the molecular basis of its high selectivity.

Project description:Hexachlorobenzene (HCB), as one of the persistent organic pollutants (POPs) and a possible human carcinogen, is especially resistant to biodegradation. In this study, HcbA1A3, a distinct flavin-N5-peroxide-utilizing enzyme and the sole known naturally occurring aerobic HCB dechlorinase, was biochemically characterized. Its apparent preference for HCB in binding affinity revealed that HcbA1 could oxidize only HCB rather than less-chlorinated benzenes such as pentachlorobenzene and tetrachlorobenzenes. In addition, the crystal structure of HcbA1 and its complex with flavin mononucleotide (FMN) were resolved, revealing HcbA1 to be a new member of the bacterial luciferase-like family. A much smaller substrate-binding pocket of HcbA1 than is seen with its close homologues suggests a requirement of limited space for catalysis. In the active center, Tyr362 and Asp315 are necessary in maintaining the normal conformation of HcbA1, while Arg311, Arg314, Phe10, Val59, and Met12 are pivotal for the substrate affinity. They are supposed to place HCB at a productive orientation through multiple interactions. His17, with its close contact with the site of oxidation of HCB, probably fixes the target chlorine atom and stabilizes reaction intermediates. The enzymatic characteristics and crystal structures reported here provide new insights into the substrate specificity and catalytic mechanism of HcbA1, which paves the way for its rational engineering and application in the bioremediation of HCB-polluted environments.IMPORTANCE As an endocrine disrupter and possible carcinogen to human beings, hexachlorobenzene (HCB) is especially resistant to biodegradation, largely due to difficulty in its dechlorination. The lack of knowledge of HCB dechlorinases limits their application in bioremediation. Recently, an HCB monooxygenase, HcbA1A3, representing the only naturally occurring aerobic HCB dechlorinase known so far, was reported. Here, we report its biochemical and structural characterization, providing new insights into its substrate selectivity and catalytic mechanism. This research also increases our understanding of HCB dechlorinases and flavin-N5-peroxide-utilizing enzymes.
