RESUMO
SU9516 is a 3-substituted indolinone compound with demonstrated potent and selective inhibition toward cyclin dependent kinases (cdks). Here, we describe the kinetic characterization of this inhibition with respect to cdk2, 1, and 4, along with the crystal structure in complex with cdk2. The molecule is competitive with respect to ATP for cdk2/cyclin A, with a K(i) value of 0.031 microM. Similarly, SU9516 inhibits cdk2/cyclin E and cdk1/cyclin B1 in an ATP-competitive manner, although at a 2- to 8-fold reduced potency. In contrast, the compound exhibited non-competitive inhibition with respect to ATP toward cdk4/cyclin D1, with a 45-fold reduced potency. The X-ray crystal structure of SU9516 bound to cdk2 revealed interactions between the molecule and Leu83 and Glu81 of the kinase. This study should aid in the development of more potent and selective cdk inhibitors for potential therapeutic agents.

The crystal structure of the hypothetical protein MJ1247 from Methanococccus jannaschii at 2 A resolution, a detailed sequence analysis, and biochemical assays infer its molecular function to be 3-hexulose-6-phosphate isomerase (PHI). In the dissimilatory ribulose monophosphate (RuMP) cycle, ribulose-5-phosphate is coupled to formaldehyde by the 3-hexulose-6-phosphate synthase (HPS), yielding hexulose-6-phosphate, which is then isomerized to fructose-6-phosphate by the enzyme 3-hexulose-6-phosphate isomerase. MJ1247 is an alpha/beta structure consisting of a five-stranded parallel beta sheet flanked on both sides by alpha helices, forming a three-layered alpha-beta-alpha sandwich. The fold represents the nucleotide binding motif of a flavodoxin type. MJ1247 is a tetramer in the crystal and in solution and each monomer has a folding similar to the isomerase domain of glucosamine-6-phosphate synthase (GlmS).
