Inhibition of Escherichia coliGlucosamine-6-phosphate Synthase by Reactive Intermediate Analogues

Glucosamine-6-phosphate synthase (GlmS) catalyzes the formation of d-glucosamine 6-phosphate fromd-fructose 6-phosphate using l-glutamine as the ammonia source. Because N-acetylglucosamine is an essential building block of both bacterial cell walls and fungal cell wall chitin, the enzyme is a potential target for antibacterial and antifungal agents. The most potent carbohydrate-based inhibitor of GlmS reported to date is 2-amino-2-deoxy-d-glucitol 6-phosphate, an analogue of the putative cis-enolamine intermediate formed during catalysis. The interaction of a series of structurally related cis-enolamine intermediate analogues with GlmS is described. Although arabinose oxime 5-phosphate is identified as a good competitive inhibitor of GlmS with an inhibition constant equal to 1.2 (±0.3) mm, the presence of the amino function at the 2-position is shown to be important for potent inhibition. Comparison of the binding affinities of 2-deoxy-d-glucitol 6-phosphate and 2-amino-2-deoxy-d-glucitol 6-phosphate indicates that the amino function contributes −4.1 (±0.1) kcal/mol to the free energy of inhibitor binding. Similarly, comparison of the binding affinities of 2-deoxy-d-glucose 6-phosphate andd-glucosamine 6-phosphate indicates that the amino function contributes −3.0 (±0.1) kcal/mol to the free energy of product binding. Interactions between GlmS and the 2-amino function of its ligands contribute to the uniform binding of the product and thecis-enolamine intermediate as evidenced by the similar contribution of the amino group to the free energy of binding ofd-glucosamine 6-phosphate and 2-amino-2-deoxy-d-glucitol 6-phosphate, respectively.

GlcN-6-P is a precursor of uridine diphospho-N-acetylglucosamine from which other amino sugar-containing molecules are derived. One of these products,N-acetylglucosamine, is an important constituent of the peptidoglycan layer of bacterial cell walls and fungal cell wall chitin. Accordingly, GlmS offers a potential target for antibacterial and antifungal agents and has attracted the interest of several research groups (2Badet-Denisot M.-A. René L. Badet B. Bull. Soc. Chim. Fr. 1993; 130: 249-255Google Scholar). GlmS catalyzes two coupled enzymatic reactions. The first is the hydrolysis of glutamine to yield glutamate and nascent ammonia, which is transferred to Fru-6-P. The second reaction is the isomerization of Fru-6-P from a ketose to an aldose, corresponding to a Heyns rearrangement (4Kort M.J. Adv. Carbohydr. Chem. Biochem. 1970; 25: 311-349Crossref Scopus (79) Google Scholar, 5Golinelli-Pimpaneau B. Le Goffic F. Badet B. J. Am. Chem. Soc. 1989; 111: 3029-3034Crossref Scopus (45) Google Scholar). Like other amidotransferases, GlmS is organized into two domains: the NH2-terminal glutamine amidotransferase domain, which catalyzes the hydrolysis of glutamine, and the COOH-terminal synthase domain, which catalyzes the isomerization (3Massière F. Badet-Denisot M.-A. Cell. Mol. Life Sci. 1998; 54: 205-222Crossref PubMed Scopus (168) Google Scholar, 6Mei B. Zalkin H. J. Bacteriol. 1990; 172: 3512-3514Crossref PubMed Google Scholar, 7Zalkin H.

The glutamine hydrolysis reaction has been studied extensively and utilizes the NH2-terminal cysteine thiol, which forms a γ-glutamyl thioester intermediate during the reaction. This catalytic role was confirmed by conversion of the NH2-terminal cysteine to alanine using site-directed mutagenesis which abolished enzymatic activity (2Badet-Denisot M.-A. René L. Badet B. Bull. Soc. Chim. Fr. 1993; 130: 249-255Google Scholar). In general, glutamine amidotransferases are inactivated by glutamine affinity analogues such as 6-diazo-5-oxo-l-norleucine and 6-chloro-5-oxo-l-norleucine (chloroketone), which alkylate the essential cysteine residue (3Massière F. Badet-Denisot M.-A. Cell. Mol. Life Sci. 1998; 54: 205-222Crossref PubMed Scopus (168) Google Scholar, 7Zalkin H. Adv. Enzymol. 1993; 66: 203-309PubMed Google Scholar, 9Buchanan J.M. Adv. Enzymol. 1973; 39: 91-183PubMed Google Scholar). Indeed, many of the active site-directed irreversible inactivators developed for GlmS contain an electrophilic function at the γ-position of glutamate and react irreversibly with the NH2-terminal cysteine residue. More recently, attempts to develop carbohydrate-based inhibitors have been made with the hope of developing more specificity (10Corizzi V. Badet B. Badet-Denisot M.-A. J. Chem. Soc. Chem. Commun. 1992; : 189-190Crossref Google Scholar, 11Badet-Denisot M.-A. Leriche C. Massière F. Badet B. Bioorg. Med. Chem. Lett. 1995; 5: 815-820Crossref Scopus (35) Google Scholar, 12Bearne S.L. J.

The ketose/aldose isomerase activity of the enzyme proceeds by abstraction of the C1 pro-R hydrogen of a putative fructosimine 6-phosphate intermediate to form acis-enolamine reactive intermediate that, upon reprotonation at the Re face of C2, gives rise to GlcN-6-P (Scheme 2) (5Golinelli-Pimpaneau B. Le Goffic F. Badet B. J. Am. Chem. Soc. 1989; 111: 3029-3034Crossref Scopus (45) Google Scholar). In accord with this mechanism, Badet and co-workers (14Leriche C. Badet-Denisot M.-A. Badet B. J. Am. Chem. Soc. 1996; 118: 1797-1798Crossref Scopus (29) Google Scholar) have shown that GlmS, in the absence of glutamine, displays a low phosphoglucoisomerase activity. Analogues of the cis-enolamine reactive intermediate are expected to be potent inhibitors of the enzyme (15Wolfenden R. Acc. Chem. Res. 1972; 5: 10-18Crossref Scopus (546) Google Scholar, 16Wolfenden R. Mol. Cell. Biochem. 1974; 3: 111-207Crossref Scopus (87) Google Scholar, 17Wolfenden R. Annu. Rev. Biophys.

Royal Society of Chemistry, London1987: 97-122Google Scholar) and indeed, 2-amino-2-deoxy-d-glucitol 6-phosphate (GlcNol-6-P) is the most potent carbohydrate-based inhibitor reported to date (11Badet-Denisot M.-A. Leriche C. Massière F. Badet B. Bioorg. Med. Chem. Lett. 1995; 5: 815-820Crossref Scopus (35) Google Scholar, 12Bearne S.L. J. Biol. Chem. 1996; 271: 3052-3057PubMed Google Scholar). Identification of those structural elements necessary for tight binding is an important part of inhibitor design. This paper describes the inhibition of GlmS by several analogues of the cis-enolamine intermediate in an attempt to probe the structural requirements for potent inhibition of this enzyme. The energetic contribution of the 2-amino group to binding of the product and thecis-enolamine intermediate is determined. d-Arabinose, d-arabinose 5-phosphate, 2-amino-2-deoxy-d-glucose 6-phosphate (d-glucosamine 6-phosphate), 2-deoxy-d-glucose 6-phosphate (dGlc-6-P), d-Fru-6-P, and d-ribose 5-phosphate were purchased from Sigma Chemical Company. All other chemicals were analytical grade and used without further purification. NMR spectra (13C, 31P) were obtained using a Bruker AC 250F spectrometer. Chemical shifts (δ) for 13C and 31P spectra are reported relative to the deuterium lock signal and external H3PO4 (85% w/v in D2O), respectively. Elemental analyses were performed by Canadian Microanalytical Service Ltd., B. C. 2-Deoxy-d-glucitol 6-phosphate (dGlcol-6-P) was synthesized by reduction of 2-deoxy-d-glucose 6-phosphate (dGlc-6-P) with sodium borohydride and purified by ion-exchange chromatography following procedures similar to those outlined for the preparation of GlcNol-6-P (12Bearne S.L. J. Biol. Chem. 1996; 271: 3052-3057PubMed Google Scholar). dGlc-6-P (250 mg, 0.868 mmol) was dissolved in 10 ml of water and cooled on ice for 10 min. Sodium borohydride (0.750 g, 19.83 mmol) was added to the dGlc-6-P solution by small portions over 20 min. During the NaBH4 addition, the solution was stirred vigorously and held on ice. After the addition was complete, the solution was stirred for 1 h at room temperature. Reduction was complete as indicated by the inability of the solution to reduce Fehling's reagent. Undissolved NaBH4 was removed by filtration, and the filtrate was cooled on ice. The remaining NaBH4 was destroyed by dropwise addition of 6 m acetic acid over 30 min until the final pH was approximately 4. The solution (25 ml) was allowed to come to room temperature and stirred for 1 h. This solution was then filtered, and the filtrate was applied to a Dowex 50 (H+ form) column (1.5 × 47 cm) and eluted with water. Fractions containing product were identified by thin layer chromatography on cellulose (99% EtOH, n-BuOH, 0.15m sodium citrate buffer, pH 4.0; 10:1:6 v/v/v) developed with an iron-sulfosalicylic acid spray reagent (19Clark J.M.

The amino function contributes to the free energy of binding both the product and the reactive intermediate that the 2-amino function is an important to be in the of carbohydrate-based GlmS
