myriocin
i.e. (2S,3R,4R,6E)-2-amino-3,4-dihydroxy-2-(hydroxymethyl)-14-oxo-6-eicosenoic acid, or thermozymocidin and ISP-1, is a fungal natural product, kinetics and molecular mechanism of enzyme inhibition, overview. Myriocin is a potent SPT enzyme inhibitor. It initially forms an external aldimine with pyridoxal 5'-phosphate at the active site, the structure of the resulting co-complex explains its nanomolar affinity for the enzyme. The cofactor-inhibitor co-complex, PLP-myriocin aldimine, catalytically degrades via an unexpected retro-aldol-like cleavage mechanism to a C18 aldehyde which in turn acts as a suicide inhibitor of the enzyme by covalent modification of the essential catalytic lysine. This dual mechanism of inhibition rationalizes the extraordinary potency and longevity of myriocin inhibition. Incubations of enzyme SPT with myriocin is consistent with the formation of an initial enzyme-inhibitor complex which is noncovalent in nature and reversible, albeit with a very slow off rate (koff), the PLP-myriocin aldimine as the initial competitive inhibitory species. In contrast, for the enzyme preincubated with myriocin for 16 h, no detectable regain in activity is observed after dialysis either at 3 or 24 h, the second formed covalent adduct acts as an irreversible inhibitor of enzyme SPT

determination of the crystal structure of enzyme mutant K265A that diffract to 1.6 A resolution and contain a canonical dimer in the asymmetric unit. Crystallization of the wild-type SPT:PLP-myriocin aldimine complex is not possible, most likely due to aldimine degradation
purified His-tagged recombinant wild-type and mutant enzymes in complex with cofactor and substrates, wild-type enzyme from 10 mM Tris, pH 7.5, 150 mM NaCl, and 0.025 mM or 0.250 mM pyridoxal 5'-phosphate, different conditions for the mutants, overview. Mass spectroscopic structure analysis, overview
crystal structure of the holo-form of SPT is determined to 1.3 A resolution. Enzyme is a symmetrical homodimer with two active sites and a monomeric tertiary structure consisting of three domains. PLP cofactor is bound covalently to Lys265 as an internal aldimine/Schiff base and the active site is composed of residues from both subunits, located at the bottom of a deep cleft
