Disease relevance of 2'-Guanosine monophosphate

• Complex of ribonuclease from Streptomyces aureofaciens with 2'-GMP at 1.7 A resolution [1].

High impact information on 2'-Guanosine monophosphate

• The interactions in the active site of the present structure are compared to those found in the 2'-GMP complex of RNase T1 [2].
• The binding of the mononucleotide inhibitors 2'-GMP, 3'-GMP, and 5'-GMP to genetically engineered ribonuclease T1 has been investigated by conventional inhibition kinetics, fluorimetric titrations, molecular modeling, and fast relaxation techniques [3].
• The kinetics of binding are nearly diffusion controlled with a kon determined for 2'-GMP and 3'-GMP, as (5.0 +/- 0.5 x 10(9) and 6.1 +/- 0.5 x 10(9) M-1, s-1 and koff as 1.2 +/- 0.2 x 10(3) and 2.0 +/- 0.3 x 10(3) s-1, respectively [3].
• The ribonuclease T1 variant 9/5 with a guanine recognition segment, altered from the wild-type amino acid sequence 41-KYNNYE-46 to 41-EFRNWQ-46, has been cocrystallised with the specific inhibitor 2'-GMP [4].
• In two attempts to dock methotrexate to dihydrofolate reductase and 2'-GMP to ribonuclease T1, the exact structures of complexes in crystals were reproduced as the most stable docking models, without any assumptions concerning the binding modes and ligand conformations [5].

Chemical compound and disease context of 2'-Guanosine monophosphate

• The crystal structure of a complex of ribonuclease from Streptomyces aureofaciens (RNase Sa) with guanosine-2'-monophosphate (2'-GMP) has been refined against synchrotron data recorded from a single crystal using radiation from beamline X31 at EMBL, Hamburg, and an imaging plate scanner [1].

Biological context of 2'-Guanosine monophosphate

• The latter is indicated by the position of phosphate and sugar residues of 2'-GMP and shows that Glu58, His92 and Arg77 are active in phosphodiester hydrolysis [6].

Associations of 2'-Guanosine monophosphate with other chemical compounds

• The carboxyl group of CM-Glu58, which locates in the active site, occupies almost the same position as the phosphate group of 2'-GMP in the crystal structure of intact RNase T1.2'-GMP complex [7].
• At pH 8.6, the enzyme hydrolyzed L-phosphotyrosine, D-phosphotyrosine, 2'-AMP, p-nitrophenylphosphate, 3'-AMP, 2'-GMP, and 3'-GMP; the ratio of its activities with these substrates was 100:96:115:68:39:25:16 [8].
• A comparison of the interactions of 2'-AMP and 2'-GMP with RNase T1 reveals that Glu58 and Asn98 at the phosphate binding site and Glu46 at the base binding site preferentially stabilise the enzyme-2'-GMP complex [9].
• The enzyme exhibited hydrolytic activity on myo-inositol-1- and -2-monophosphates, 2'-adenosine monophosphate, 2'-guanosine monophosphate, and the alpha- and beta-glycerophosphates, glucose-1-phosphate, and fructose-6-phosphate in 50 mM Tris-HCl buffer (pH 7.4) in the presence of Mg2+ ions, but not on pNPP and phosphotyrosine [10].

Gene context of 2'-Guanosine monophosphate

• We present free energy perturbation calculations on the complexes of Glu46----Ala46 (E46A) and Glu46----Gln46 (E46Q) mutants of ribonuclease T1 (RNaseT1) with inhibitors 2'-guanosine monophosphate (GMP) and 2'-adenosine monophosphate (AMP) by a thermodynamic perturbation method implemented with molecular dynamics (MD) [11].
• Activation enthalpies (kcal/mol) and entropies (eu) for 2'-GMP are: delta H not equal to = 18.5 +/- 1.3, delta S not equal to = 9.6 +/- 4.2 for TMA+ salt at pH 8.10, and delta H not equal to = 14.7 +/- 2.6, delta S not equal to = -3.7 +/- 8.0 for the Na+ salt at pH 8.11 [12].

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of 2'-Guanosine monophosphate

• Using high-performance liquid chromatography, it could be shown for all crystal forms that 2'-GMP is bound in the crystals [13].
