An assessment of three human methylenetetrahydrofolate dehydrogenase/cyclohydrolase ligand complexes following further refinementRenata V. Bueno, Alice Dawson and William N. Hunter [1] Molecular Tour  Figure 1. The structures and names of DHCH inhibitors discussed in this work. A. L34 is (2S)-2-[[4-[(6aR)-3-amino-1,9-dioxo-5,6,6a,7-tetrahydro-4H-imidazo[1,5-f]pteridin-8-yl]benzoyl]amino]pentanedioic acid. L24 is (2R)-2-[[4-[2-[(6R)-2-amino-4-oxo-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-1H-pyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidin-6-yl]ethyl]benzoyl]amino]pentanedioic acid. L37 is (2R)-2-[[4-[(2,5-diamino-4-oxo-1H-pyrimidin-6-yl)carbamoylamino]benzoyl]amino]pentanedioic acid. B. Omit Fo-Fc Polder maps (Liebschner et al., 2017[2]) contoured at 3.0 r.m.s.d. after additional refinements. These omit maps were generated using the observed structure factors Fo of each model, and the calculated structure factors Fc generated after setting zero occupancies to the inhibitors, and removing the bulk solvent correction. The omit map for 1ecq is presented with the L24 pteridine ring in two orientations: white carbon sticks represents L24 pteridine ring in the same orientation as presented in 1dia and pink carbon sticks represents the pteridine ring 180° rotated in relation to 1dia. For L37, the coordinates from PDB entry 1dia are shown. One complex has a well-ordered ligand in a catalytic site and the model provides an improved description of enzyme-inhibitor interactions (1dib: ). One ligand may adopt two conformations in the binding site rather than the single one previously described (1dia: ; 1st conformation is colored in wheat and 2nd conformation is in pink). There is no evidence to support incorporation of the third compound in the model (1dig: L37). Our interpretation of the data supports a correlation between the models and inhibition activity for two of the compounds. In the case of the third, inconsistencies are noted that would need to be addressed by further work. . Water molecule is shown as red sphere. Distance measurements (in Å) are represented as white dashed lines. PDB references: methylenetetrahydrofolate dehydrogenase/cyclohydrolase, 6ecp; 6ecq; 6ecr. References
