'''Crystal Structure of E.coli DHFR in complex with NADPH and the inhibitor compound 10a.'''<br />
'''Crystal Structure of E.coli DHFR in complex with NADPH and the inhibitor compound 10a.'''<br />


==Overview==
==Overview==
Dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR) is a vital metabolic enzyme and thus a, clinically prominent target in the design of antimetabolites. In this, work, we identify, 1,4-bis-{[N-(1-imino-1-guanidino-methyl)]sulfanylmethyl}-3,6-dimethyl-benz, ene (compound 1) as the correct structure of the previously reported DHFR, inhibitor, 1,4-bis-{(iminothioureidomethyl)aminomethyl}-3,6-dimethyl-benzene, (compound 2). The fact that compound 1 has an uncharacteristic structure, for DHFR inhibitors, and an affinity (KI of 11.5 nM) comparable to potent, inhibitors such as methotrexate and trimethoprim, made this inhibitor of, interest for further analysis. We have conducted a characterization of the, primary interactions of compound 1 and DHFR using a combination of X-ray, structure and SAR analysis. The crystal structure of E. coli DHFR in, complex with compound 1 and NADPH reveals that one portion of this, inhibitor exploits a unique binding surface, the M20 loop. The importance, of this interface was further confirmed by SAR analysis and additional, structural characterization.
