Disease

OAT_HUMAN Defects in OAT are the cause of hyperornithinemia with gyrate atrophy of choroid and retina (HOGA) [MIM:258870. HOGA is a slowly progressive blinding autosomal recessive disorder.[1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6]

Publication Abstract from PubMed

Potent mechanism-based inactivators can be rationally designed against PLP-dependent drug targets, such as ornithine aminotransferase (OAT) or gamma-aminobutyric acid aminotransferase (GABA-AT). An important challenge, however, is the lack of selectivity towards other PLP-dependent off-target enzymes, because of similarities in mechanisms of all PLP-dependent aminotransferase reactions. On the basis of complex crystal structures, we investigate the inactivation mechanism of OAT, a hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) target, by (1R,3S,4S)-3-amino-4-fluorocyclopentane-1-carboxylic acid (FCP), a known inactivator of GABA-AT. A crystal structure of OAT and FCP showed the formation of a ternary adduct. This adduct can be rationalized as occurring via an enamine mechanism of inactivation similar to that reported for GABA-AT. However, the crystal structure of an off-target PLP-dependent enzyme, aspartate aminotransferase (Asp-AT), in complex with FCP, along with the results of attempted inhibition assays, suggest that FCP is not an inactivator of Asp-AT, but rather an alternate substrate. Turnover of FCP by Asp-AT is also supported by high-resolution mass spectrometry. In comparison to the inactivation mechanisms of FCP against OAT and GABA-AT, the obtained results provide evidence that a desirable selectivity of inactivation could be achieved, taking advantage of subtle structural and mechanistic differences between a drug-target and an off-target enzyme, despite their largely similar substrate binding sites and catalytic mechanisms.
