Involvement of Phenylalanine 297 in the Construction of the Substrate Pocket of Human Aminopeptidase B

Abstract: Aminopeptidase B (APB, EC 3.4.11.6) preferentially hydrolyzes the N-terminal basic amino acids of synthetic and peptide substrates and requires a physiological concentration of NaCl for optimal activity. In this study, we used site-directed mutagenesis and molecular modeling to search for an amino acid residue that is critical for the enzymatic properties of human APB. Substitution of Phe297 with Tyr caused a significant decrease in hydrolytic activity toward synthetic and peptide substrates as well as chlorid… Show more

“…S-avizafone dihydrochloride (AVF•2HCl) was synthesized with .99% purity, 99% enantiomeric excess from 5-chloro-2-methylaminobenzophenone according to the procedure described previously (Kapoor et al, 2016). Recombinant human Coadministration of Prodrug and Converting Enzyme to Rats aminopeptidase B (APB) enzyme was produced by inserting the aminopeptidase B gene (RNPEP) DNA sequence encoding for APB and a His tag into a pQE-30 Xa vector, transforming the JM109 strain of Escherichia coli with the resultant plasmid, inducing APB expression with IPTG, and purifying the expressed APB by affinity capture chromatography (Ogawa et al, 2014;Ohnishi et al, 2015). Purity of APB was .80% by gel electrophoresis.…”

“…They are known to play roles in protein maturation, activation, modulation, and degradation of bioactive peptides, as well as determining protein stability. 1) Among them is endoplasmic reticulum aminopeptidase 1 (ERAP1) belonging to M1 family of aminopeptidases, which require Zn 2+ for hydrolysis (gluzincin).

“…Na inflamação, é a principal indutora da síntese de proteínas de fase aguda e estimula a produção de anticorpos por linfócitos B (YAO et al, 2014;SCHELLER et al, 2011;FONSECA et al, 2009). A reação de fase aguda é uma das primeiras respostas à lesão e manifesta-se por alterações nos níveis de algumas proteínas no soro, produzidas pelo fígado, como o aumento de proteína Creativa (PCR), fibrinogênio, ferritina e soro amiloide A e a diminuição de transferrina e albumina (ASSIER et al, 2010;FONSECA et al, 2009 (CADEL et al, 2015;OHNISHI et al, 2015;CADEL et al, 2013;PHAM et al, 2007). Em animais artríticos do modelo CIA, a atividade APB encontra-se diminuída na fração solúvel de PBMCs e aumentada nas frações solúvel e de membrana do tecido sinovial, sugerindo que essa atividade poderia ser uma potencial marcadora do desenvolvimento de AR (MENDES, 2012;MENDES et al, 2011).…”

“…Neutrófilos também se apresentam, causando dano tecidual por meio da secreção de produtos como enzimas proteolíticas, oxigênio e nitrogênio derivados de radicais livres (BOMBINI et al, 2004;HARRIS, 1990 A APB, além de hidrolisar resíduos básicos (arginina e lisina) na cadeia peptídica (HUI e HUI, 2006;PIESSE et al, 2004;FOULON et al, 1999), é estruturalmente semelhante à enzima LT-A4-H (33% de identidade e 48% de similaridade), também exibindo essa atividade (PHAM et al, 2007;PENNING et al, 2002;FOULON et al, 1999;CADEL et al, 1997). Por sua vez, a atividade peptidásica da APB ocorre sobre substratos com reconhecidas ações na regulação do processo angiogênico (HEFFELFINGER, 2007;RUIZ-ORTEGA et al, 2007;BALOGH et al, 1998), além de participar da maturação de hormônios peptídicos e neurotransmissores (CADEL et al, 2015;OHNISHI et al, 2015;CADEL et al, 2013) Além disso, é possível hipotetizar que esse efeito local de inibição da APB resulte na diminuição da angiogênese, quimiotaxia e estímulo de neutrófilos, sendo benéfica no tratamento da AR.…”
