Function

NQO2_HUMAN The enzyme apparently serves as a quinone reductase in connection with conjugation reactions of hydroquinones involved in detoxification pathways as well as in biosynthetic processes such as the vitamin K-dependent gamma-carboxylation of glutamate residues in prothrombin synthesis.[1]

Publication Abstract from PubMed

CB1954 is an attractive prodrug for directed-enzyme prodrug therapy (DEPT) and a conventional prodrug against tumors in which the enzyme NQO2 is highly expressed. We have determined the crystal structure of the NQO2-CB1954 complex to 2.0 A resolution. The binding of the prodrug is governed by hydrophobic forces, while two key electrostatic contacts determine the specific orientation of the ligand. The structure also reveals an unfavorable interaction, therefore suggesting possible avenues for DEPT-tailored engineering studies.
