Inhibitors

Inhibitors Comment Organism Structure
indolmycin competitive inhibitor, produced by Streptomyces griseus, causes selective, mechanism-based inhibition of the bacterial enzyme, which preferentially binds indolmycin about 1500fold more tightly than its tryptophan substrate, binding structure analysis overview. Long range coupling to residues within an allosteric region called the D1 switch of BsTrpRS positions the Mg2+ ion in a manner that allows it to assist in transition state stabilization. The Mg2+ ion in the inhibited complex forms significantly closer contacts with non-bridging oxygen atoms from each phosphate group of ATP and three water molecules than occur in the (presumably catalytically competent) pre-transition state (preTS) crystal structures. This altered coordination stabilizes a ground state Mg2+-ATP-configuration, accounting for the high affinity inhibition of BsTrpRS by indolmycin Geobacillus stearothermophilus
additional information indolmycin and ATP form a ternary complex with BsTrpRS Geobacillus stearothermophilus

General Information

General Information Comment Organism
additional information both the ATP configuration and Mg2+ coordination in the human cytosolic (Hc)TrpRS preTS structure differ greatly from the BsTrpRS preTS structure. The effect of these differences is that catalysis occurs via a different transition state stabilization mechanism in HcTrpRS with a yet-to-be determined role for Mg2+ Geobacillus stearothermophilus
physiological function aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases maintain the fidelity of the genetic code by ensuring the charging of tRNA with its cognate amino acid Geobacillus stearothermophilus
