Water Networks and Correlated Motions in Mutant Isocitrate Dehydrogenase 1 (IDH1) Are Critical for Allosteric Inhibitor Binding and Activity.

ABSTRACT: Point mutations in human isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 (IDH1) can drive malignancies, including lower-grade gliomas and secondary glioblastomas, chondrosarcomas, and acute myeloid leukemias. These mutations, which usually affect residue R132, ablate the normal activity of catalyzing the NADP⁺-dependent oxidation of isocitrate to α-ketoglutarate (αKG) while also acquiring a neomorphic activity of reducing αKG to d-2-hydroxyglutarate (D2HG). Mutant IDH1 can be selectively therapeutically targeted due to structural differences that occur in the wild type (WT) versus mutant form of the enzyme, though the full mechanisms of this selectivity are still under investigation. Here we probe the mechanistic features of the neomorphic activity and selective small molecule inhibition through a new lens, employing WaterMap and molecular dynamics simulations. These tools identified a high-energy path of water molecules connecting the inhibitor binding site with the αKG and NADP⁺ binding sites in mutant IDH1. This water path aligns spatially with the α10 helix from WT IDH1 crystal structures. Mutating residues at the termini of this water path specifically disrupted inhibitor binding and/or D2HG production, revealing additional key residues to consider in optimizing druglike molecules against mutant IDH1. Taken together, our findings from molecular simulations and mutant enzyme kinetic assays provide insight into how disrupting water paths through enzyme active sites can impact not only inhibitor potency but also substrate recognition and activity.

Allosteric motions in structures of yeast NAD+-specific isocitrate dehydrogenase.

Project description:Mitochondrial NAD(+)-specific isocitrate dehydrogenases (IDHs) are key regulators of flux through biosynthetic and oxidative pathways in response to cellular energy levels. Here we present the first structures of a eukaryotic member of this enzyme family, the allosteric, hetero-octameric, NAD(+)-specific IDH from yeast in three forms: 1) without ligands, 2) with bound analog citrate, and 3) with bound citrate + AMP. The structures reveal the molecular basis for ligand binding to homologous but distinct regulatory and catalytic sites positioned at the interfaces between IDH1 and IDH2 subunits and define pathways of communication between heterodimers and heterotetramers in the hetero-octamer. Disulfide bonds observed at the heterotetrameric interfaces in the unliganded IDH hetero-octamer are reduced in the ligand-bound forms, suggesting a redox regulatory mechanism that may be analogous to the "on-off" regulation of non-allosteric bacterial IDHs via phosphorylation. The results strongly suggest that eukaryotic IDH enzymes are exquisitely tuned to ensure that allosteric activation occurs only when concentrations of isocitrate are elevated.

Selective inhibition of mutant isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 (IDH1) via disruption of a metal binding network by an allosteric small molecule.

Project description:Cancer-associated point mutations in isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 and 2 (IDH1 and IDH2) confer a neomorphic enzymatic activity: the reduction of α-ketoglutarate to d-2-hydroxyglutaric acid, which is proposed to act as an oncogenic metabolite by inducing hypermethylation of histones and DNA. Although selective inhibitors of mutant IDH1 and IDH2 have been identified and are currently under investigation as potential cancer therapeutics, the mechanistic basis for their selectivity is not yet well understood. A high throughput screen for selective inhibitors of IDH1 bearing the oncogenic mutation R132H identified compound 1, a bis-imidazole phenol that inhibits d-2-hydroxyglutaric acid production in cells. We investigated the mode of inhibition of compound 1 and a previously published IDH1 mutant inhibitor with a different chemical scaffold. Steady-state kinetics and biophysical studies show that both of these compounds selectively inhibit mutant IDH1 by binding to an allosteric site and that inhibition is competitive with respect to Mg(2+). A crystal structure of compound 1 complexed with R132H IDH1 indicates that the inhibitor binds at the dimer interface and makes direct contact with a residue involved in binding of the catalytically essential divalent cation. These results show that targeting a divalent cation binding residue can enable selective inhibition of mutant IDH1 and suggest that differences in magnesium binding between wild-type and mutant enzymes may contribute to the inhibitors' selectivity for the mutant enzyme.

Biochemical, cellular, and biophysical characterization of a potent inhibitor of mutant isocitrate dehydrogenase IDH1.

Project description:Two mutant forms (R132H and R132C) of isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 (IDH1) have been associated with a number of cancers including glioblastoma and acute myeloid leukemia. These mutations confer a neomorphic activity of 2-hydroxyglutarate (2-HG) production, and 2-HG has previously been implicated as an oncometabolite. Inhibitors of mutant IDH1 can potentially be used to treat these diseases. In this study, we investigated the mechanism of action of a newly discovered inhibitor, ML309, using biochemical, cellular, and biophysical approaches. Substrate binding and product inhibition studies helped to further elucidate the IDH1 R132H catalytic cycle. This rapidly equilibrating inhibitor is active in both biochemical and cellular assays. The (+) isomer is active (IC50 = 68 nm), whereas the (-) isomer is over 400-fold less active (IC50 = 29 ?m) for IDH1 R132H inhibition. IDH1 R132C was similarly inhibited by (+)-ML309. WT IDH1 was largely unaffected by (+)-ML309 (IC50 >36 ?m). Kinetic analyses combined with microscale thermophoresis and surface plasmon resonance indicate that this reversible inhibitor binds to IDH1 R132H competitively with respect to ?-ketoglutarate and uncompetitively with respect to NADPH. A reaction scheme for IDH1 R132H inhibition by ML309 is proposed in which ML309 binds to IDH1 R132H after formation of the IDH1 R132H NADPH complex. ML309 was also able to inhibit 2-HG production in a glioblastoma cell line (IC50 = 250 nm) and had minimal cytotoxicity. In the presence of racemic ML309, 2-HG levels drop rapidly. This drop was sustained until 48 h, at which point the compound was washed out and 2-HG levels recovered.

Early volumetric, perfusion, and diffusion MRI changes after mutant isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) inhibitor treatment in IDH1-mutant gliomas.

Project description:BackgroundInhibition of the isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH)-mutant enzyme is a novel therapeutic target in IDH-mutant gliomas. Imaging biomarkers of IDH inhibitor treatment efficacy in human IDH-mutant gliomas are largely unknown. This study investigated early volumetric, perfusion, and diffusion MRI changes in IDH1-mutant gliomas during IDH inhibitor treatment.MethodsTwenty-nine IDH1-mutant glioma patients who received IDH inhibitor and obtained anatomical, perfusion, and diffusion MRI pretreatment at 3-6 weeks (n = 23) and/or 2-4 months (n = 14) of treatment were retrospectively studied. Normalized relative cerebral blood volume (nrCBV), apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC), and fluid-attenuated inversion recovery (FLAIR) hyperintensity volume were analyzed.ResultsAfter 3-6 weeks of treatment, nrCBV was significantly increased (P = .004; mean %change = 24.15%) but not FLAIR volume (P = .23; mean %change = 11.05%) or ADC (P = .52; mean %change = -1.77%). Associations between shorter progression-free survival (PFS) with posttreatment nrCBV > 1.55 (P = .05; median PFS, 240 vs 55 days) and increased FLAIR volume > 4 cm3 (P = .06; 227 vs 29 days) trended toward significance. After 2-4 months, nrCBV, FLAIR volume, and ADC were not significantly different from baseline, but an nrCBV increase > 0% (P = .002; 1121 vs 257 days), posttreatment nrCBV > 1.8 (P = .01; 1121 vs. 270 days), posttreatment ADC < 1.15 μm2/ms (P = .02; 421 vs 215 days), median nrCBV/ADC ratio increase > 0% (P = .02; 1121 vs 270 days), and FLAIR volume change > 4 cm3 (P = .03; 421 vs 226.5 days) were associated with shorter PFS.ConclusionsIncreased nrCBV at 3-6 weeks of treatment may reflect transient therapeutic and/or tumor growth changes, whereas nrCBV, ADC, and FLAIR volume changes occurring at 2-4 months of treatment may more accurately reflect antitumor response to IDH inhibition.

Low pH Facilitates Heterodimerization of Mutant Isocitrate Dehydrogenase IDH1-R132H and Promotes Production of 2-Hydroxyglutarate.

Project description:Isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 (IDH1) is a key metabolic enzyme for maintaining cytosolic levels of α-ketoglutarate (AKG) and preserving the redox environment of the cytosol. Wild-type (WT) IDH1 converts isocitrate to AKG; however, mutant IDH1-R132H that is recurrent in human cancers catalyzes the neomorphic production of the oncometabolite d-2-hydroxyglutrate (D-2HG) from AKG. Recent work suggests that production of l-2-hydroxyglutarte in cancer cells can be regulated by environmental changes, including hypoxia and intracellular pH (pHi). However, it is unknown whether and how pHi affects the activity of IDH1-R132H. Here, we show that in cells IDH1-R132H can produce D-2HG in a pH-dependent manner with increased production at lower pHi. We also identify a molecular mechanism by which this pH sensitivity is achieved. We show that pH-dependent production of D-2HG is mediated by pH-dependent heterodimer formation between IDH1-WT and IDH1-R132H. In contrast, neither IDH1-WT nor IDH1-R132H homodimer formation is affected by pH. Our results demonstrate that robust production of D-2HG by IDH1-R132H relies on the coincidence of (1) the ability to form heterodimers with IDH1-WT and (2) low pHi or highly abundant AKG substrate. These data suggest cancer-associated IDH1-R132H may be sensitive to physiological or microenvironmental cues that lower pH, such as hypoxia or metabolic reprogramming. This work reveals new molecular considerations for targeted therapeutics and suggests potential synergistic effects of using catalytic IDH1 inhibitors targeting D-2HG production in combination with drugs targeting the tumor microenvironment.

Zinc Finger MYND-Type Containing 8 (ZMYND8) Is Epigenetically Regulated in Mutant Isocitrate Dehydrogenase 1 (IDH1) Glioma to Promote Radioresistance.

Project description:PurposeMutant isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 (mIDH1) alters the epigenetic regulation of chromatin, leading to a hypermethylation phenotype in adult glioma. This work focuses on identifying gene targets epigenetically dysregulated by mIDH1 to confer therapeutic resistance to ionizing radiation (IR).Experimental designWe evaluated changes in the transcriptome and epigenome in a radioresistant mIDH1 patient-derived glioma cell culture (GCC) following treatment with an mIDH1-specific inhibitor, AGI-5198. We identified Zinc Finger MYND-Type Containing 8 (ZMYND8) as a potential target of mIDH1 reprogramming. We suppressed ZMYND8 expression by shRNA knockdown and genetic knockout (KO) in mIDH1 glioma cells and then assessed cellular viability to IR. We assessed the sensitivity of mIDH1 GCCS to pharmacologic inhibition of ZMYND8-interacting partners: HDAC, BRD4, and PARP.ResultsInhibition of mIDH1 leads to an upregulation of gene networks involved in replication stress. We found that the expression of ZMYND8, a regulator of DNA damage response, was decreased in three patient-derived mIDH1 GCCs after treatment with AGI-5198. Knockdown of ZMYND8 expression sensitized mIDH1 GCCs to radiotherapy marked by decreased cellular viability. Following IR, mIDH1 glioma cells with ZMYND8 KO exhibit significant phosphorylation of ATM and sustained γH2AX activation. ZMYND8 KO mIDH1 GCCs were further responsive to IR when treated with either BRD4 or HDAC inhibitors. PARP inhibition further enhanced the efficacy of radiotherapy in ZMYND8 KO mIDH1 glioma cells.ConclusionsThese findings indicate the impact of ZMYND8 in the maintenance of genomic integrity and repair of IR-induced DNA damage in mIDH1 glioma.

Isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 (IDH1) mutant gliomas demonstrate a distinct global CpG island methylation profile compared to IDH1 wildtype gliomas using MRSE

Project description:In order to identify other molecular aberrations that may cooperate with IDH1R132MUT in gliomagenesis, we performed CpG-island methylation profiling analysis using MSRE (Tran et al. Front. Neurosci. 3:57. Doi: 10.3389/neuro.15.005.2009) on a subset of IDH1R132MUT and IDH1R132WT GBMs and found a distinct pattern of CpG island hypermethylation that was detected in all GBMs and lower grade gliomas with IDH1R132MUT. While absent from nearly all IDH1R132WT glioma, the methylation pattern in IDH1R132MUT GBMs shows similarity to the recently reported CpG island methylator phenotype (CIMP) found to be tightly associated with IDH1R132MUT gliomas(Noushmehr et al. Cancer Cell, Volume 17, Issue 5, 18 May 2010, Pages 510-522, ISSN 1535-6108, DOI: 10.1016/j.ccr.2010.03.017). Methylation profiling performed on 40 distinct brain tumor samples: 7 Anaplastic Astrocytomas, including 3 IDH1MUT and 4 IDH1WT; 5 Lowgrade Astrocytomas, including 4 IDH1MUT and 1 IDH1WT; 28 Glioblastoma, including 8 IDH1MUT and 20 IDH1WT.

Mutant Isocitrate Dehydrogenase Inhibitors as Targeted Cancer Therapeutics.

Project description:The identification of heterozygous neomorphic isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) mutations across multiple cancer types including both solid and hematologic malignancies has revolutionized our understanding of oncogenesis in these malignancies and the potential for targeted therapeutics using small molecule inhibitors. The neomorphic mutation in IDH generates an oncometabolite product, 2-hydroxyglutarate (2HG), which has been linked to the disruption of metabolic and epigenetic mechanisms responsible for cellular differentiation and is likely an early and critical contributor to oncogenesis. In the past 2 years, two mutant IDH (mutIDH) inhibitors, Enasidenib (AG-221), and Ivosidenib (AG-120), have been FDA-approved for IDH-mutant relapsed or refractory acute myeloid leukemia (AML) based on phase 1 safety and efficacy data and continue to be studied in trials in hematologic malignancies, as well as in glioma, cholangiocarcinoma, and chondrosarcoma. In this review, we will summarize the molecular pathways and oncogenic consequences associated with mutIDH with a particular emphasis on glioma and AML, and systematically review the development and preclinical testing of mutIDH inhibitors. Existing clinical data in both hematologic and solid tumors will likewise be reviewed followed by a discussion on the potential limitations of mutIDH inhibitor monotherapy and potential routes for treatment optimization using combination therapy.

Radiosensitization and a Less Aggressive Phenotype of Human Malignant Glioma Cells Expressing Isocitrate Dehydrogenase 1 (IDH1) Mutant Protein: Dissecting the Mechanisms.

Project description:The presence of an isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 (IDH1) mutation is associated with a less aggressive phenotype, increased sensitivity to radiation, and increased overall survival in patients with diffuse glioma. Based on in vitro experimentations in malignant glioma cell lines, the consequences on cellular processes of IDH1R132H expression were analyzed. The results revealed that IDH1R132H expression enhanced the radiation induced accumulation of residual γH2AX foci and decreased the amount of glutathione (GSH) independent of the oxygen status. In addition, expression of the mutant IDH1 caused a significant increase of cell stiffness and induced an altered organization of the cytoskeleton, which has been shown to reinforce cell stiffness. Furthermore, IDH1R132H expression decreased the expression of vimentin, an important component of the cytoskeleton and regulator of the cell stiffness. The results emphasize the important role of mutant IDH1 in treatment of patients with diffuse gliomas especially in response to radiation. Hence, detection of the genetic status of IDH1 before therapy massively expands the utility of immunohistochemistry to accurately distinguish patients with a less aggressive and radiosensitive IDH1-mutant diffuse glioma suitable for radiotherapy from those with a more aggressive IDH1-wildtype diffuse glioma who might benefit from an individually intensified therapy comprising radiotherapy and alternative medical treatments.
