N-MYRISTOYL TRANSFERASE FROM CANDIDA ALBICANS AT 2.45 A
OverviewOverview
N-myristoyl transferase (NMT) catalyzes the transfer of the fatty acid, myristate from myristoyl-CoA to the N-terminal glycine of substrate, proteins, and is found only in eukaryotic cells. The enzyme in this study, is the 451 amino acid protein produced by Candida albicans, a yeast, responsible for the majority of systemic infections in immuno-compromised, humans. NMT activity is essential for vegetative growth, and the structure, was determined in order to assist in the discovery of a selective, inhibitor of NMT which could be developed as an anti-fungal drug. NMT has, no sequence homology with other protein sequences and has a novel, alpha/beta fold which shows internal two-fold symmetry, which may be a, result of gene duplication. On one face of the protein there is a long, curved, ... [(full description)]
