Iminosugars as Potential Inhibitors of Glycogenolysis: Structural Insights into the Molecular Basis of Glycogen Phosphorylase Inhibition

文摘
Iminosugars DAB (5), isofagomine (9), and several N-substituted derivatives have been identified as potentinhibitors of liver glycogen phosphorylase a (IC50 = 0.4-1.2 M) and of basal and glucagon-stimulatedglycogenolysis (IC50 = 1-3 M). The X-ray structures of 5, 9, and its N-3-phenylpropyl analogue 8 incomplex with rabbit muscle glycogen phosphorylase (GPb) shows that iminosugars bind tightly at the catalyticsite in the presence of the substrate phosphate and induce conformational changes that characterize theR-state conformation of the enzyme. Charged nitrogen N1 is within hydrogen-bonding distance with thecarbonyl oxygen of His377 (5) and in ionic contact with the substrate phosphate oxygen (8 and 9). Ourfindings suggest that the inhibitors function as oxocarbenium ion transition-state analogues. The conformationalchange to the R state provides an explanation for previous findings that 5, unlike inhibitors that favor theT state, promotes phosphorylation of GPb in hepatocytes with sequential inactivation of glycogen synthase.
