英文摘要
DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): We propose to determine by X-ray
crystallography the three-dimensional structures of two membrane-bound enzymes
from human placenta: cytochrome P450 aromatase (P450arom) and
estrone/dehydroepiandrosterone sulfatase (ES). P450arom and ES, along with
17beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 1, constitute the three-enzyme system
responsible for biosynthesis of active estrogens. High levels of estrogen have
been linked to the initiation and proliferation of breast tumors. Current
therapeutic agents, such as Tamoxifen and its analogs, are estrogen-receptor
antagonists that have limited efficacy and produce undesirable side effects.
The enzymes involved in estrogen biosynthesis provide alternative and
attractive anti-breast cancer drug targets, and the ultimate objective of this
project is to design such drugs. The strategic lowering of active estrogen
levels at or near breast tumors, by simultaneous inhibition of two or all three
members of this enzyme system, could turn out to be the most pragmatic way to
prevent proliferation of breast-tumor cells. Elucidation of the P450arom and ES
crystal structures will lead to better understanding of the molecular
mechanisms of action of these enzymes and the rational design of
transition-state analogs as inhibitors, thereby minimizing or eliminating
undesirable side effects. We have already grown diffraction-quality crystals of
ES and small single crystals of P450arom. We will continue to use both
conventional and automated methods to screen systematically a large number of
crystallization conditions for P450arom. We have prepared several antibody
fragments that bind P450arom with high affinity and specificity. We will use
these fragments as tools for crystallizing P450arom in the form of soluble
complexes, enhancing the overall chances of obtaining good crystals of this
difficult-to-crystallize membrane protein. The latter approach provides an
opportunity to investigate the molecular basis of immune-specific interactions
between P450arom and the complementarity-determining regions of the antibody,
and this information could be exploited for the design of activity-suppressing
pharmacophores or immune-responsive peptides with vaccine implications.
