Crystal Structure of Human Sulfotransferase SULT1A3 in Complex with Dopamine and 3-Phosphoadenosine 5-Phosphate
|
OverviewOverview
The human sulfotransferase, SULT1A3, catalyzes specifically the, sulfonation of monoamines such as dopamine, epinephrine, and, norepinephrine. SULT1A3 also has a unique 3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine, (Dopa)/tyrosine-sulfating activity that is preferentially toward their, D-form enantiomers and can be stimulated dramatically by Mn2+. To further, our understanding of the molecular basis for the unique substrate, specificity of this enzyme, we solved the crystal structure of human, SULT1A3, complexed with dopamine and 3'-phosphoadenosine 5'-phosphate, at, 2.6 A resolution and carried out autodocking analysis with D-Dopa. The, structure of SULT1A3 enzyme-ligand complex clearly showed that residue, Glu146 can form electrostatic interaction with dopamine and may play a, pivotal role in the stereoselectivity and sulfating activity. On the other, hand, residue Asp86 appeared to be critical to the Mn2+-stimulation of the, Dopa/tyrosine-sulfating activity of SULT1A3, in addition to a supporting, role in the stereoselectivity and sulfating activity.
