Kinetic characterization of the inhibition of protein tyrosine phosphatase-1B by Vanadyl (VO2+) chelates.

ABSTRACT: Protein tyrosine phosphatases (PTPases) are a prominent focus of drug design studies because of their roles in homeostasis and disorders of metabolism. These studies have met with little success because (1) virtually all inhibitors hitherto exhibit only competitive behavior and (2) a consensus sequence H/V-C-X5-R-S/T characterizes the active sites of PTPases, leading to low specificity of active site directed inhibitors. With protein tyrosine phosphatase-1B (PTP1B) identifed as the target enzyme of the vanadyl (VO2+) chelate bis(acetylacetonato)oxidovanadium(IV) [VO(acac)2] in 3T3-L1 adipocytes [Ou et al. J Biol Inorg Chem 10: 874-886, 2005], we compared the inhibition of PTP1B by VO(acac)2 with other VO2+-chelates, namely, bis(2-ethyl-maltolato)oxidovanadium(IV) [VO(Et-malto)2] and bis(3-hydroxy-2-methyl-4(1H)pyridinonato)oxidovanadium(IV) [VO(mpp)2] under steady-state conditions, using the soluble portion of the recombinant human enzyme (residues 1-321). Our results differed from those of previous investigations because we compared inhibition in the presence of the nonspecific substrate p-nitrophenylphosphate and the phosphotyrosine-containing undecapeptide DADEpYLIPQQG mimicking residues 988-998 of the epidermal growth factor receptor, a relevant, natural substrate. While VO(Et-malto)2 acts only as a noncompetitive inhibitor in the presence of either subtrate, VO(acac)2 exhibits classical uncompetitive inhibition in the presence of DADEpYLIPQQG but only apparent competitive inhibition with p-nitrophenylphosphate as substrate. Because uncompetitive inhibitors are more potent pharmacologically than competitive inhibitors, structural characterization of the site of uncompetitive binding of VO(acac)2 may provide a new direction for design of inhibitors for therapeutic purposes. Our results suggest also that the true behavior of other inhibitors may have been masked when assayed with only p-nitrophenylphosphate as substrate.

Project description:A new paradigm in metallobiochemistry describes the activation of inactive metalloenzymes by metal ion removal. Protein tyrosine phosphatases (PTPs) do not seem to require a metal ion for enzymatic activity. However, both metal cations and metal anions modulate their enzymatic activity. One binding site is the phosphate binding site at the catalytic cysteine residue. Oxyanions with structural similarity to phosphate, such as vanadate, inhibit the enzyme with nanomolar to micromolar affinities. In addition, zinc ions (Zn2+) inhibit with picomolar to nanomolar affinities. We mapped the cation binding site close to the anion binding site and established a specific mechanism of inhibition occurring only in the closed conformation of the enzyme when the catalytic cysteine is phosphorylated and the catalytic aspartate moves into the active site. We discuss this dual inhibition by anions and cations here for PTP1B, the most thoroughly investigated protein tyrosine phosphatase. The significance of the inhibition in phosphorylation signaling is becoming apparent only from the functions of PTP1B in the biological context of metal cations as cellular signaling ions. Zinc ion signals complement redox signals but provide a different type of control and longer lasting inhibition on a biological time scale owing to the specificity and affinity of zinc ions for coordination environments. Inhibitor design for PTP1B and other PTPs is a major area of research activity and interest owing to their prominent roles in metabolic regulation in health and disease, in particular cancer and diabetes. Our results explain the apparent dichotomy of both cations (Zn2+) and oxyanions such as vanadate inhibiting PTP1B and having insulin-enhancing ("anti-diabetic") effects and suggest different approaches, namely targeting PTPs in the cell by affecting their physiological modulators and considering a metallodrug approach that builds on the knowledge of the insulin-enhancing effects of both zinc and vanadium compounds.
