英文摘要
Sulfur metabolic pathways are essential for the virulence and survival of human pathogens. In microbial
cysteine biosynthesis, sulfonucleotide reductases (SRs) catalyze the reduction of 5'-phosphosulfoadenosine
(APS) or 3'-phospho-5'phosphosulfoadenosine (PAPS) to sulfite using reducing equivalents from a protein
cofactor, thioredoxin (Trx). In later stages, sulfite is further reduced to sulfide, which is used for the production
of essential sulfur-containing metabolites including cysteine, methionine, coenzymes, iron-sulfur clusters and
antioxidants. SRs are excellent new targets for antibiotic development because of their critical role in bacterial
survival and the lack of analogous enzymes in humans. This class of enzymes is particularly intriguing due to
the nature of the chemical reaction they catalyze. In addition, our preliminary results suggest that a highly
unusual iron-sulfur cluster in APS reductase may play an important catalytic role. However, many fundamental
questions about their mechanism and structure remain unknown. Because the chemistry and biology of
bacterial SRs is not well understood, scientists have not been able to explore the potential of these enzymes
as anti-infective targets. To this end, the broad goal of this project is directed towards obtaining detailed
mechanistic and structural information on bacterial SRs, and on identifying small molecule inhibitors of SRs.
The proposed research has three Specific Aims: (1) To elucidate the function of the [4Fe-4S] cluster in APS
reductase, (2) To investigate large-scale conformational dynamics in the SR catalytic cycle, and (3) To
discover SR inhibitors using library screening and virtual docking approaches. This work may lead to the
development of antibiotics that can be used to combat drug-resistant bacteria, which would have a major
impact on human health. Furthermore, we anticipate that these experiments will lead to important new
fundamental insights into the (bio)chemistry of protein-associated iron-sulfur clusters and bacterial sulfur
metabolism.
