Nicotinamide riboside-amino acid conjugates that are stable to purine nucleoside phosphorylase.

ABSTRACT: The nutraceutical Nicotinamide Riboside (NR), an efficacious biosynthetic precursor to NAD, is readily metabolized by the purine nucleoside phosphorylase (PNP). Access to the PNP-stable versions of NR is difficult because the glycosidic bond of NR is easily cleaved. Unlike NR, NRH, the reduced form of NR, offers sufficient chemical stability to allow the successful functionalisation of the ribosyl-moiety. Here, we report on a series of NRH and NR derived amino acid conjugates, generated in good to excellent yields and show that O5'-esterification prevents the PNP-catalyzed phosphorolysis of these NR prodrugs.

Nicotinamide riboside and nicotinic acid riboside salvage in fungi and mammals. Quantitative basis for Urh1 and purine nucleoside phosphorylase function in NAD+ metabolism.

Project description:NAD+ is a co-enzyme for hydride transfer enzymes and an essential substrate of ADP-ribose transfer enzymes and sirtuins, the type III protein lysine deacetylases related to yeast Sir2. Supplementation of yeast cells with nicotinamide riboside extends replicative lifespan and increases Sir2-dependent gene silencing by virtue of increasing net NAD+ synthesis. Nicotinamide riboside elevates NAD+ levels via the nicotinamide riboside kinase pathway and by a pathway initiated by splitting the nucleoside into a nicotinamide base followed by nicotinamide salvage. Genetic evidence has established that uridine hydrolase, purine nucleoside phosphorylase, and methylthioadenosine phosphorylase are required for Nrk-independent utilization of nicotinamide riboside in yeast. Here we show that mammalian purine nucleoside phosphorylase but not methylthioadenosine phosphorylase is responsible for mammalian nicotinamide riboside kinase-independent nicotinamide riboside utilization. We demonstrate that so-called uridine hydrolase is 100-fold more active as a nicotinamide riboside hydrolase than as a uridine hydrolase and that uridine hydrolase and mammalian purine nucleoside phosphorylase cleave nicotinic acid riboside, whereas the yeast phosphorylase has little activity on nicotinic acid riboside. Finally, we show that yeast nicotinic acid riboside utilization largely depends on uridine hydrolase and nicotinamide riboside kinase and that nicotinic acid riboside bioavailability is increased by ester modification.

Equilibrative Nucleoside Transporters Mediate the Import of Nicotinamide Riboside and Nicotinic Acid Riboside into Human Cells.

Project description:Nicotinamide riboside (NR), a new form of vitamin B3, is an effective precursor of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) in human and animal cells. The introduction of NR into the body effectively increases the level of intracellular NAD+ and thereby restores physiological functions that are weakened or lost in experimental models of aging and various pathologies. Despite the active use of NR in applied biomedicine, the mechanism of its transport into mammalian cells is currently not understood. In this study, we used overexpression of proteins in HEK293 cells, and metabolite detection by NMR, to show that extracellular NR can be imported into cells by members of the equilibrative nucleoside transporter (ENT) family ENT1, ENT2, and ENT4. After being imported into cells, NR is readily metabolized resulting in Nam generation. Moreover, the same ENT-dependent mechanism can be used to import the deamidated form of NR, nicotinic acid riboside (NAR). However, NAR uptake into HEK293 cells required the stimulation of its active utilization in the cytosol such as phosphorylation by NR kinase. On the other hand, we did not detect any NR uptake mediated by the concentrative nucleoside transporters (CNT) CNT1, CNT2, or CNT3, while overexpression of CNT3, but not CNT1 or CNT2, moderately stimulated NAR utilization by HEK293 cells.

Isotope-specific and amino acid-specific heavy atom substitutions alter barrier crossing in human purine nucleoside phosphorylase.

Project description:Computational chemistry predicts that atomic motions on the femtosecond timescale are coupled to transition-state formation (barrier-crossing) in human purine nucleoside phosphorylase (PNP). The prediction is experimentally supported by slowed catalytic site chemistry in isotopically labeled PNP (13C, 15N, and 2H). However, other explanations are possible, including altered volume or bond polarization from carbon-deuterium bonds or propagation of the femtosecond bond motions into slower (nanoseconds to milliseconds) motions of the larger protein architecture to alter catalytic site chemistry. We address these possibilities by analysis of chemistry rates in isotope-specific labeled PNPs. Catalytic site chemistry was slowed for both [2H]PNP and [13C, 15N]PNP in proportion to their altered protein masses. Secondary effects emanating from carbon-deuterium bond properties can therefore be eliminated. Heavy-enzyme mass effects were probed for local or global contributions to catalytic site chemistry by generating [15N, 2H]His8-PNP. Of the eight His per subunit, three participate in contacts to the bound reactants and five are remote from the catalytic sites. [15N, 2H]His8-PNP had reduced catalytic site chemistry larger than proportional to the enzymatic mass difference. Altered barrier crossing when only His are heavy supports local catalytic site femtosecond perturbations coupled to transition-state formation. Isotope-specific and amino acid specific labels extend the use of heavy enzyme methods to distinguish global from local isotope effects.

Structure of grouper iridovirus purine nucleoside phosphorylase.

Project description:Purine nucleoside phosphorylase (PNP) catalyzes the reversible phosphorolysis of purine ribonucleosides to the corresponding free bases and ribose 1-phosphate. The crystal structure of grouper iridovirus PNP (givPNP), corresponding to the first PNP gene to be found in a virus, was determined at 2.4 A resolution. The crystals belonged to space group R3, with unit-cell parameters a = 193.0, c = 105.6 A, and contained four protomers per asymmetric unit. The overall structure of givPNP shows high similarity to mammalian PNPs, having an alpha/beta structure with a nine-stranded mixed beta-barrel flanked by a total of nine alpha-helices. The predicted phosphate-binding and ribose-binding sites are occupied by a phosphate ion and a Tris molecule, respectively. The geometrical arrangement and hydrogen-bonding patterns of the phosphate-binding site are similar to those found in the human and bovine PNP structures. The enzymatic activity assay of givPNP on various substrates revealed that givPNP can only accept 6-oxopurine nucleosides as substrates, which is also suggested by its amino-acid composition and active-site architecture. All these results suggest that givPNP is a homologue of mammalian PNPs in terms of amino-acid sequence, molecular mass, substrate specificity and overall structure, as well as in the composition of the active site.

A beta-fluoroamine inhibitor of purine nucleoside phosphorylase.

Project description:The potent immucillin purine nucleoside phosphorylase (PNP ) inhibitors F-DADMe-ImmH [(3S,4S)-3], and [(3R,4R)-3] are synthesized in seven steps. Cycloaddition to a fluoroalkene and an enzymic resolution are the key features of the construction of the fluoropyrrolidines 11, from which the immucillins are assembled by use of a three-component Mannich reaction. Slow-onset binding constants (Ki(*)) for [(3S,4S)-3] and [(3R,4R)-3] with human PNP are 0.032 and 1.82 nM, respectively. F-DADMe-ImmH [(3S,4S)-3] exhibits oral availability in mice at doses as low as 0.2 mg/kg.

Inhibition and structure of Toxoplasma gondii purine nucleoside phosphorylase.

Project description:The intracellular pathogen Toxoplasma gondii is a purine auxotroph that relies on purine salvage for proliferation. We have optimized T. gondii purine nucleoside phosphorylase (TgPNP) stability and crystallized TgPNP with phosphate and immucillin-H, a transition-state analogue that has high affinity for the enzyme. Immucillin-H bound to TgPNP with a dissociation constant of 370 pM, the highest affinity of 11 immucillins selected to probe the catalytic site. The specificity for transition-state analogues indicated an early dissociative transition state for TgPNP. Compared to Plasmodium falciparum PNP, large substituents surrounding the 5'-hydroxyl group of inhibitors demonstrate reduced capacity for TgPNP inhibition. Catalytic discrimination against large 5' groups is consistent with the inability of TgPNP to catalyze the phosphorolysis of 5'-methylthioinosine to hypoxanthine. In contrast to mammalian PNP, the 2'-hydroxyl group is crucial for inhibitor binding in the catalytic site of TgPNP. This first crystal structure of TgPNP describes the basis for discrimination against 5'-methylthioinosine and similarly 5'-hydroxy-substituted immucillins; structural differences reflect the unique adaptations of purine salvage pathways of Apicomplexa.

Structure of purine nucleoside phosphorylase (DeoD) from Bacillus anthracis.

Project description:Protein structures from the causative agent of anthrax (Bacillus anthracis) are being determined as part of a structural genomics programme. Amongst initial candidates for crystallographic analysis are enzymes involved in nucleotide biosynthesis, since these are recognized as potential targets in antibacterial therapy. Purine nucleoside phosphorylase is a key enzyme in the purine-salvage pathway. The crystal structure of purine nucleoside phosphorylase (DeoD) from B. anthracis has been solved by molecular replacement at 2.24 A resolution and refined to an R factor of 18.4%. This is the first report of a DeoD structure from a Gram-positive bacterium.

Purine nucleoside phosphorylase deficiency in two unrelated Saudi patients.

Project description:Purine nucleoside phosphorylase (PNP) deficiency is a rare autosomal recessive metabolic disorder that results in combined immunodeficiency, neurologic dysfunction and autoimmunity. PNP deficiency has never been reported from Saudi Arabia or in patients with an Arabic ethnic background. We report on two Saudi girls with PNP deficiency. Both showed severe lymphopenia and neurological involvement. Sequencing of the PNP gene of one girl revealed a novel missense mutation Pro146>Leu in exon 4 due to a change in the codon from CCT>CTT. Expression of PNP (146L) cDNA in E coli indicated that the mutation greatly reduced, but did not completely eliminate PNP activity.

Efficient Synthesis of Purine Nucleoside Analogs by a New Trimeric Purine Nucleoside Phosphorylase from Aneurinibacillus migulanus AM007.

Project description:Purine nucleoside phosphorylases (PNPs) are promising biocatalysts for the synthesis of purine nucleoside analogs. Although a number of PNPs have been reported, the development of highly efficient enzymes for industrial applications is still in high demand. Herein, a new trimeric purine nucleoside phosphorylase (AmPNP) from Aneurinibacillus migulanus AM007 was cloned and heterologously expressed in Escherichia coli BL21(DE3). The AmPNP showed good thermostability and a broad range of pH stability. The enzyme was thermostable below 55 °C for 12 h (retaining nearly 100% of its initial activity), and retained nearly 100% of the initial activity in alkaline buffer systems (pH 7.0-9.0) at 60 °C for 2 h. Then, a one-pot, two-enzyme mode of transglycosylation reaction was successfully constructed by combining pyrimidine nucleoside phosphorylase (BbPyNP) derived from Brevibacillus borstelensis LK01 and AmPNP for the production of purine nucleoside analogs. Conversions of 2,6-diaminopurine ribonucleoside (1), 2-amino-6-chloropurine ribonucleoside (2), and 6-thioguanine ribonucleoside (3) synthesized still reached >90% on the higher concentrations of substrates (pentofuranosyl donor: purine base; 20:10 mM) with a low enzyme ratio of BbPyNP: AmPNP (2:20 μg/mL). Thus, the new trimeric AmPNP is a promising biocatalyst for industrial production of purine nucleoside analogs.

Attenuated Plasmodium yoelii lacking purine nucleoside phosphorylase confer protective immunity.

Project description:Malaria continues to devastate sub-Saharan Africa owing to the emergence of drug resistance to established antimalarials and to the lack of an efficacious vaccine. Plasmodium species have a unique streamlined purine pathway in which the dual specificity enzyme purine nucleoside phosphorylase (PNP) functions in both purine recycling and purine salvage. To evaluate the importance of PNP in an in vivo model of malaria, we disrupted PyPNP, the gene encoding PNP in the lethal Plasmodium yoelii YM strain. P. yoelii parasites lacking PNP were attenuated and cleared in mice. Although able to form gametocytes, PNP-deficient parasites did not form oocysts in mosquito midguts and were not transmitted from mosquitoes to mice. Mice given PNP-deficient parasites were immune to subsequent challenge to a lethal inoculum of P. yoelii YM and to challenge from P. yoelii 17XNL, another strain. These in vivo studies with PNP-deficient parasites support purine salvage as a target for antimalarials. They also suggest a strategy for the development of attenuated nontransmissible metabolic mutants as blood-stage malaria vaccine strains.
