== Function ==
[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/DDAH_PSEAE DDAH_PSEAE] Hydrolyzes N(G),N(G)-dimethyl-L-arginine (ADMA) and N(G)-monomethyl-L-arginine (MMA) which act as inhibitors of NOS.

== Publication Abstract from PubMed ==
Small molecules capable of selective covalent protein modification are of significant interest for the development of biological probes and therapeutics. We recently reported that 2-methyl-4-bromopyridine is a quiescent affinity label for the nitric oxide controlling enzyme dimethylarginine dimethylaminohydrolase (DDAH), raising the possibility that the 4-halopyridine motif may have utility as a moderately-reactive group suitable for wider application. [Johnson, C.M., Linsky, T.W., Yoon, D.W., Person, M.D. &amp; Fast, W. (2011) J. Am. Chem. Soc. 133, 1553-1562] Therefore, the inactivation mechanism of the related compound 2-hydroxymethyl-4-chloropyridine is probed here in more detail. Solution studies support an inactivation mechanism in which the active-site Asp66 residue stabilizes the pyridinium form of the inactivator, which has enhanced reactivity toward the active site Cys, resulting in covalent bond formation, loss of the halide, and irreversible inactivation. A 2.18 A resolution X-ray crystal structure of the inactivated complex elucidates the inactivator's pose and covalent attachment to the active-site Cys, but the conformation does not show an interaction with Asp66. Molecular modeling is used to investigate inactivator binding, reaction, and also a final pyridinium deprotonation step that accounts for the apparent differences between the solution-based and structural studies with respect to the role of Asp66. This work integrates multiple approaches to elucidate the inactivation mechanism of a novel 4-halopyridine "warhead," emphasizing the strategy of using pyridinium formation as a "switch" to enhance reactivity when bound to the target protein.
