Abstract:
:The UDP-glucuronosyltransferase (UGT) isozyme system is critical for protecting the body against endogenous and exogenous chemicals by linking glucuronic acid donated by UDP-glucuronic acid to a lipophilic acceptor substrate. UGTs convert metabolites, dietary constituents, and environmental toxicants to highly excretable glucuronides. Because of difficulties associated with purifying endoplasmic reticulum-bound UGTs for structural studies, we carried out homology-based computer modeling to aid analysis. The search found structural homology in Escherichia coli UDP-galactose 4-epimerase. Consistent with predicted similarities involving the common UDP moiety in substrate/inhibitor, UDP-glucose and UDP-hexanol amine caused competitive inhibition by Lineweaver-Burk plots. Among predicted binding sites N292, K314, K315, and K404 in UGT1A10, two informative sets of mutants K314R/Q/A/E/G and K404R/E had null activities or 2.7-fold higher/50% less activity, respectively. Scatchard analysis of binding data of the affinity ligand, 5-azidouridine-[beta- (32)P]diphosphoglucuronic acid, to purified UGT1A10-His or UGT1A7-His revealed high- and low-affinity binding sites. 2-Nitro-5-thiocyanobenzoic acid-digested UGT1A10-His bound with the radiolabeled affinity ligand revealed an 11.3 and 14.3 kDa peptide associated with K314 and K404, respectively, in a discontinuous SDS-PAGE system. Similar treatment of 1A10His-K314A bound with the ligand lacked both peptides; 1A10-HisK404R- and 1A10-HisK404E showed 1.3-fold greater and 50% less label in the 14.3 kDa peptide, respectively, compared to 1A10-His without affecting the 11.3 kDa peptide. Scatchard analysis of binding data of the affinity ligand to 1A10His-K404R and -K404E showed a 6-fold reduction and a large increase in K d, respectively. Our results indicate that K314 and K404 are required UDP-glcA binding sites in 1A10, that K404 controls activity and high-affinity sites, and that K314 and K404 are strictly conserved in 70 aligned UGTs, except for S321, equivalent to K314, in UGT2B15 and 2B17 and I321 in the inactive UGT8, which suggests UGT2B15 and 2B17 contain suboptimal activity. Hence our data strongly support UDP-glcA binding to K314 and K404 in UGT1A10.
