Function

PYGM_RABIT Phosphorylase is an important allosteric enzyme in carbohydrate metabolism. Enzymes from different sources differ in their regulatory mechanisms and in their natural substrates. However, all known phosphorylases share catalytic and structural properties.

Publication Abstract from PubMed

Anthocyanins (ACNs) are dietary phytochemicals with an acknowledged therapeutic significance. Pomegranate juice (PJ) is a rich source of ACNs with potential applications in nutraceutical development. Glycogen phosphorylase (GP) catalyzes the first step of glycogenolysis and is a molecular target for the development of antihyperglycemics. The inhibitory potential of the ACN fraction of PJ is assessed through a combination of in vitro assays, ex vivo investigation in hepatic cells, and X-ray crystallography studies. The ACN extract potently inhibits muscle and liver isoforms of GP. Affinity crystallography reveals the structural basis of inhibition through the binding of pelargonidin-3-O-glucoside at the GP inhibitor site. The glucopyranose moiety is revealed as a major determinant of potency as it promotes a structural binding mode different from that observed for other flavonoids. This inhibitory effect of the ACN scaffold and its binding mode at the GP inhibitor binding site may have significant implications for future structure-based drug design endeavors.
