Crystal structure of human CRM1, covalently modified by 2-mercaptoethanol on Cys528, in complex with RanGTP

Abstract

CRM1 is a nuclear export receptor that has been intensively targeted over the last decade for the development of antitumor and antiviral drugs. Structural analysis of several inhibitor compounds bound to CRM1 revealed that their mechanism of action relies on the covalent modification of a critical cysteine residue (Cys528 in the human receptor) located in the nuclear export signal-binding cleft. This study presents the crystal structure of human CRM1, covalently modified by 2-mercaptoethanol on Cys528, in complex with RanGTP at 2.58 Å resolution. The results demonstrate that buffer components can interfere with the characterization of cysteine-dependent inhibitor compounds.

Shaikhqasem, Schmitt, Valerius, & Ficner, 2021 Synergism between cysteine and o-phenanthroline Cysteine / phenanthroline synergistically inhibited the combination of lipoxygenase, and the compound synergistic effect was more obvious. Its application in the actual production process is less, and its side effects are not clear, which needs to be further explored.…”
