The mechanism of allosteric coupling in choline kinase a1 revealed by a rationally designed inhibitor
| ||||||||||||
Structural highlights
FunctionCHKA_HUMAN Has a key role in phospholipid biosynthesis and may contribute to tumor cell growth. Catalyzes the first step in phosphatidylcholine biosynthesis. Contributes to phosphatidylethanolamine biosynthesis. Phosphorylates choline and ethanolamine. Has higher activity with choline.[1] Publication Abstract from PubMedApplying a CHOK hold: Combined experimental and computational studies of the binding mode of a rationally designed inhibitor of the dimeric choline kinase alpha1 (CHOKalpha1) explain the molecular mechanism of negative cooperativity and how the monomers are connected. The results give insight into how the symmetry of the dimer can be partially conserved despite a lack of conservation in the static crystal structures.
