Carbonic anhydrase IX-mimic in complex with sucralose
Structural highlights
DiseaseCAH2_HUMAN Defects in CA2 are the cause of osteopetrosis autosomal recessive type 3 (OPTB3) [MIM:259730; also known as osteopetrosis with renal tubular acidosis, carbonic anhydrase II deficiency syndrome, Guibaud-Vainsel syndrome or marble brain disease. Osteopetrosis is a rare genetic disease characterized by abnormally dense bone, due to defective resorption of immature bone. The disorder occurs in two forms: a severe autosomal recessive form occurring in utero, infancy, or childhood, and a benign autosomal dominant form occurring in adolescence or adulthood. Autosomal recessive osteopetrosis is usually associated with normal or elevated amount of non-functional osteoclasts. OPTB3 is associated with renal tubular acidosis, cerebral calcification (marble brain disease) and in some cases with mental retardation.[1] [2] [3] [4] [5] FunctionCAH2_HUMAN Essential for bone resorption and osteoclast differentiation (By similarity). Reversible hydration of carbon dioxide. Can hydrate cyanamide to urea. Involved in the regulation of fluid secretion into the anterior chamber of the eye.[6] [7] Publication Abstract from PubMedCarbonic anhydrase IX (CA IX) expression is important for the regulation of pH in hypoxic tumors and is emerging as a therapeutic target for the treatment of various cancers. Recent studies have demonstrated the selectivity of sucrose, saccharin, and acesulfame potassium for CA IX over other CA isoforms. Reported here is the X-ray crystal structure of CA IX-mimic in complex with sucralose determined to approximately 1.5 A resolution. Furthermore, this structure is compared to the aforementioned sweetener/carbohydrate structural studies in order to determine active site properties of CA IX that promote selective binding. This structural analysis provides a further understanding of CA IX isoform specific inhibition to facilitate the design of new inhibitors and anticancer drugs.
