Tryparedoxins (TXNs) are trypanothione-dependent peroxiredoxin oxidoreductases involvedin hydroperoxide detoxification that have been shown to determine virulence in trypanosomatids. Thestructure of 15N,13C-doubly-labeled, C-terminally-His-tagged tryparedoxin 1 from Crithidia fasciculata(Cf TXN1) was elucidated by three-dimensional NMR spectroscopy. Global folding was found to besimilar to the crystal structure, but regions near the active site, especially the onset of helix chars/alpha.gif" BORDER=0>1 with theredox-active Cys 43 and helix chars/alpha.gif" BORDER=0>2 relevant to substrate binding, were less well defined in solution. Theredox-inactive inhibitory substrate analogue N1,N8-bis(ophthalmyl)spermidine was used to study thesubstrate/TXN interaction by two-dimensional 1H,15N NMR spectroscopy. The NMR data complementedby molecular modeling revealed several alternative modes of ligand binding. The results confirm andextend the concept of TXN action and specificity derived from X-ray analysis and site-directed mutagenesisand thus improve the rational basis for inhibitor design.
