Structural basis of the inhibition of Golgi alpha-mannosidase II by mannostatin A and the role of the thiomethyl moiety in ligand-protein interactions.

ABSTRACT: The X-ray crystal structures of mannose trimming enzyme drosophila Golgi alpha-mannosidase II (dGMII) complexed with the inhibitors mannostatin A (1) and an N-benzyl analogue (2) have been determined. Molecular dynamics simulations and NMR studies have shown that the five-membered ring of mannostatin A is rather flexible occupying pseudorotational itineraries between 2T3 and 5E, and 2T3 and 4E. In the bound state, mannostatin A adopts a 2T1 twist envelope conformation, which is not significantly populated in solution. Possible conformations of the mannosyl oxacarbenium ion and an enzyme-linked intermediate have been compared to the conformation of mannostatin A in the cocrystal structure with dGMII. It has been found that mannostatin A best mimics the covalent linked mannosyl intermediate, which adopts a 1S5 skew boat conformation. The thiomethyl group, which is critical for high affinity, superimposes with the C-6 hydroxyl of the covalent linked intermediate. This functionality is able to make a number of additional polar and nonpolar interactions increasing the affinity for dGMII. Furthermore, the X-ray structures show that the environment surrounding the thiomethyl group of 1 is remarkably similar to the arrangements around the methionine residues in the protein. Collectively, our studies contradict the long held view that potent inhibitors of glycosidases must mimic an oxacarbenium ion like transition state.

Project description:The development of effective inhibitors of Golgi α-mannosidase II (GMII, E.C.3.2.1.114) with minimal off-target effects on phylogenetically-related lysosomal α-mannosidase (LMan, E.C.3.2.1.24) is a complex task due to the complicated structural and chemical properties of their active sites. The pKa values (and also protonation forms in some cases) of several ionizable amino acids, such as Asp, Glu, His or Arg of enzymes, can be changed upon the binding of the inhibitor. Moreover, GMII and LMan work under different pH conditions. The pKa calculations on large enzyme-inhibitor complexes and FMO-PIEDA energy decomposition analysis were performed on the structures of selected inhibitors obtained from docking and hybrid QM/MM calculations. Based on the calculations, the roles of the amino group incorporated in the ring of the imino-D-lyxitol inhibitors and some ionizable amino acids of Golgi-type (Asp270-Asp340-Asp341 of Drosophila melanogaster α-mannosidase dGMII) and lysosomal-type enzymes (His209-Asp267-Asp268 of Canavalia ensiformis α-mannosidase, JBMan) were explained in connection with the observed inhibitory properties. The pyrrolidine ring of the imino-D-lyxitols prefers at the active site of dGMII the neutral form while in JBMan the protonated form, whereas that of imino-L-lyxitols prefers the protonation form in both enzymes. The calculations indicate that the binding mechanism of inhibitors to the active-site of α-mannosidases is dependent on the inhibitor structure and could be used to design new selective inhibitors of GMII. A series of novel synthetic N-substituted imino-D-lyxitols were evaluated with four enzymes from the glycoside hydrolase GH38 family (two of Golgi-type, Drosophila melanogaster GMIIb and Caenorhabditis elegans AMAN-2, and two of lysosomal-type, Drosophila melanogaster LManII and Canavalia ensiformis JBMan, enzymes). The most potent structures [N-9-amidinononyl and N-2-(1-naphthyl)ethyl derivatives] inhibited GMIIb (Ki = 40 nM) and AMAN-2 (Ki = 150 nM) with a weak selectivity index (SI) toward Golgi-type enzymes of IC50(LManII)/IC50(GMIIb) = 35 or IC50(JBMan)/IC50(AMAN-2) = 86. On the other hand, weaker micromolar inhibitors, such as N-2-naphthylmethyl or 4-iodobenzyl derivatives [IC50(GMIIb) = 2.4 μM and IC50 (AMAN-2) = 7.6 μM], showed a significant SI in the range from 111 to 812.
