Publication Abstract from PubMed EryK is a bacterial cytochrome P450 that catalyzes the last hydroxylation occurring during the biosynthetic pathway of erythromycin A in Streptomyces erythraeus. We report the crystal structures of EryK in complex with two widely used azole inhibitors: ketoconazole and clotrimazole. Both these ligands use their imidazole moiety to coordinate the heme iron of P450s. Nevertheless, because of the different chemical and structural properties of their N1-substituent group, ketoconazole and clotrimazole trap EryK, respectively, in a closed and in an open conformation that resemble the two structures previously described for the ligand-free EryK. Indeed ligands induce a distortion of the internal helix I that affects the accessibility of the binding pocket by regulating the kink of the external helix G via a network of interactions that involves helix F. The data presented thus constitute an example of how a cytochrome P450 may be selectively trapped in different conformational states by inhibitors. Azole drugs trap cytochrome P450 EryK in alternative conformational states.,Montemiglio LC, Gianni S, Vallone B, Savino C Biochemistry. 2010 Sep 16.
