Activating Compound

Activating Compound Comment Organism Structure
efavirenz EFV, activates the enzyme pharmacologically as a potential target for Alzheimers disease Homo sapiens
additional information pharmaceuticals activate CYP46A1 allosterically through binding to the site on the cytosolic protein surface, which is different from the enzyme active site facing the membrane Homo sapiens

Application

Application Comment Organism
medicine the enzyme is a potential target for Alzheimers disease as it can be activated pharmacologically by some of the marketed drugs as exemplified by efavirenz (EFV), the anti-HIV medication Homo sapiens

Cloned(Commentary)

Cloned (Comment) Organism
gene CYP46A1, recombinant expression of wild-type full-length and mutant truncated forms of enzyme CYP46A1 in Escherichia coli Homo sapiens

Crystallization (Commentary)

Crystallization (Comment) Organism
analysis of the crystal structure of cholesterol sulfate-bound CYP46A1, PDB ID 2Q9F Homo sapiens

Protein Variants

Protein Variants Comment Organism
K422A site-directed mutagenesis, the K422A mutant retains the ability to be activated by EFV, although to a slightly lower extent than wild-type CYP46A1. The cholesterol-bound K422A mutant also shows cooperativity similar to cholesterol-bound wild-type CYP46A1. Binding to NADPH cytochrome P450 oxidoreductase is reduced compared to the wild-type Homo sapiens
K94A site-directed mutagenesis, the K94A replacement produces inactive P420 protein Homo sapiens
additional information construction of truncated enzyme mutant DELTA(3-27)CYP46A1 Homo sapiens
R138A site-directed mutagenesis, binding to NADPH cytochrome P450 oxidoreductase is reduced compared to the wild-type Homo sapiens
R139A site-directed mutagenesis, binding to NADPH cytochrome P450 oxidoreductase is reduced compared to the wild-type Homo sapiens
R147A site-directed mutagenesis, binding to NADPH cytochrome P450 oxidoreductase is unaltered compared to the wild-type Homo sapiens
R424A site-directed mutagenesis, the R424A mutant shows a total loss of the ability to be activated by EFV. The R424A replacement affects EFV binding to the allosteric site and cholesterol binding to the CYP46A1 active site. Binding to NADPH cytochrome P450 oxidoreductase is reduced compared to the wild-type Homo sapiens
