Structural highlights 4k5o is a 1 chain structure with sequence from Plasmodium falciparum FcB1/Columbia. Full crystallographic information is available from OCA. For a guided tour on the structure components use FirstGlance. Method: X-ray diffraction, Resolution 1.9Å Ligands: , , , Resources: FirstGlance, OCA, PDBe, RCSB, PDBsum, ProSAT Function AMP1_PLAFQ Displays aminopeptidase activity with a broad substrate specificity. Preferentially hydrolyzes L-Lys-AMC but also shows strong activity against L-Ala-AMC, L-Arg-AMC and L-Leu-AMC. Publication Abstract from PubMed The malaria parasite <i>Plasmodium falciparum</i> employs two metallo-aminopeptidases, P<i>f</i>A-M1 and P<I>f</i>A-M17, which are essential for parasite survival. Compounds that inhibit the activity of either enzyme represent leads for the development of new anti-malarial drugs. Here we report the synthesis and structure-activity-relationships of a small library of phosphonic acid arginine mimetics that probe the S1 pocket of both enzymes, and map the necessary interactions that would be important for a dual inhibitor.
