Dynamical footprint of falcipain-2 catalytic triad in hemoglobin-β-bound state.

Abstract:

:Falcipain-2 (FP-2) is a member of papain family of cysteine proteases and the major hemoglobinase of the hemoglobin detoxification and hemozoin polymerization complex localized in the food vacuole of the plasmodium species. FP-2 is currently gaining clinical significance as the drug target of choice in combating malaria epidemic. Here, a theoretical FP-2/hemoglobin complex has been proposed and the dynamical footprint and energetics of binding have been investigated using molecular and quantum mechanics approaches. The mapped interaction interface comprises residues 34-51 of hemoglobin and cysteine-42/histidine-174/glutamine-36/asparagine-173/204 and subsites S1, S1', and S3 of FP-2. In hemoglobin-bound FP-2, asparagine-173 preferentially partners histidine-174, while glutamine-36 is preferred in ligand-free state. Cysteine-42 exhibits dihedral switch from 110° to 30° in free and bound states, respectively, with exclusion of water from the binding core upon hemoglobin binding. Hemoglobin similarly exhibits high occupancy within .2 nm distance with charged amido acid-rich subsites S1 and S3 of FP-2 functioning in tandem to reduce conformational flexibility of hemoglobin and facilitate the formation of a stabilizing anti-parallel β-sheet between Leucine-172-valine-176 of FP-2 and phenylalanine-45-asparate-47 of hemoglobin and to overcome the + 1.13e + 5 eV activation energy required to optimize the FP-2/hemoglobin-β conformation that precedes hydrolysis.
