Inhibitors Comment Organism Structure
5-Ethynyluracil covalently inactivates DPD by cross-linking with the active-site general acid cysteine in the pyrimidine binding site. This reaction is dependent on the simultaneous binding of 5-ethynyluracil and NADPH. The ternary complex induces DPD to become activated by taking up two electrons from the NADPH. The covalent inactivation of DPD by 5-ethynyluracil occurs concomitantly with this reductive activation with a rate constant of about 0.2 per s. This kinact value is correlated with the rate of reduction of one of the two flavin cofactors and the localization of a mobile loop in the pyrimidine active site Sus scrofa
