STRUCTURE OF HUMAN NEUTRAL ENDOPEPTIDASE COMPLEXED WITH PHOSPHORAMIDONSTRUCTURE OF HUMAN NEUTRAL ENDOPEPTIDASE COMPLEXED WITH PHOSPHORAMIDON
Structural highlights
Function[NEP_HUMAN] Thermolysin-like specificity, but is almost confined on acting on polypeptides of up to 30 amino acids. Biologically important in the destruction of opioid peptides such as Met- and Leu-enkephalins by cleavage of a Gly-Phe bond. Able to cleave angiotensin-1, angiotensin-2 and angiotensin 1-9. Involved in the degradation of atrial natriuretic factor (ANF). Displays UV-inducible elastase activity toward skin preelastic and elastic fibers.[1] [2] [3] Evolutionary Conservation Check, as determined by ConSurfDB. You may read the explanation of the method and the full data available from ConSurf. Publication Abstract from PubMedNeutral endopeptidase is a mammalian type II integral membrane zinc-containing endopeptidase, which degrades and inactivates a number of bioactive peptides. The range of substrates cleaved by neutral endopeptidase in vitro includes the enkephalins, substance P, endothelin, bradykinin and atrial natriuretic factor. Due to the physiological importance of neutral endopeptidase in the modulation of nociceptive and pressor responses there is considerable interest in inhibitors of this enzyme as novel analgesics and anti-hypertensive agents. Here we describe the crystal structure of the extracellular domain (residues 52-749) of human NEP complexed with the generic metalloproteinase inhibitor phosphoramidon at 2.1 A resolution. The structure reveals two multiply connected folding domains which embrace a large central cavity containing the active site. The inhibitor is bound to one side of this cavity and its binding mode provides a detailed understanding of the ligand-binding and specificity determinants.
