== Function ==
[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/PTR1_LEIMA PTR1_LEIMA] Exhibits a NADPH-dependent biopterin reductase activity. Has good activity with folate and significant activity with dihydrofolate and dihydrobiopterin, but not with quinonoid dihydrobiopterin. Confers resistance to methotrexate (MTX).<ref>PMID:7972081</ref>

== Publication Abstract from PubMed ==
The structure of Leishmania major pteridine reductase (PTR1) in complex with NADPH and the inhibitor 2,4,6-triaminoquinazoline (TAQ) has been solved in a new crystal form by molecular replacement and refined to 2.6 A resolution. The inhibitor mimics a fragment, the pterin head group, of the archetypal antifolate drug methotrexate (MTX) and exploits similar chemical features to bind in the PTR1 active site. Despite being a much smaller molecule, TAQ displays a similar inhibition constant to that of MTX. PTR1 is a target for the development of improved therapies for infections caused by trypanosomatid parasites and this analysis provides information to assist the structure-based development of novel enzyme inhibitors.
