biotechnology genetic engineering of plants for increased production of the osmoprotectant proline, transgenic plants overexpressing OAT display enhanced tolerance to salt and drought due to increased proline content Vigna aconitifolia
drug development human OAT as a potential target for development of new therapeutic drugs, OAT holds a significant scientific interest because of its association with gyrate atrophy, a recessive hereditary genetic dissorder leading to progressive loss of vision and eventually blindness in humans Homo sapiens
drug development human OAT is recognized as a potential target for chemotherapeutic drug development, in a study performed to evaluate the effect of selective blocking of mitosis in human cancer cells, OAT is identified as a protein, which binds the antimitotic drug diazonamide A and it has a role in regulating mitotic cell division Homo sapiens

Cloned(Commentary)

Cloned (Comment) Organism
a recombinant seedling OAT is obtained by cDNA expression in Escherichia coli and its substrate specificity is measured, the enzyme is found to be strictly specific for L-ornithine showing practically no activity with putrescine, 1,3-diamimopropane and 4-aminobutyrate Pisum sativum
expression of the entire human gene in Escherichia coli Homo sapiens
mothbean enzyme is expressed in Escherichia coli Vigna aconitifolia
Nicotiana plumbaginifolia plants overexpressing OAT from Arabidopsis synthesize more proline than the control plants and show a higher biomass and a higher germination rate under osmotic stress conditions Arabidopsis thaliana

Crystallization (Commentary)

Crystallization (Comment) Organism
human OAT is crystallized as a recombinant protein obtained by expression of the entire gene in Escherichia coli, the packing of the dimers in the crystal yields a hexameric quaternary structure in which 3 dimers are arranged to form about one turn of a right-handed superhelix, OAT is also crystallized in the presence of L-canaline and gabaculine, co-crystallization of OAT with (2S, 5S)-5-fluoromethylornithine Homo sapiens

Protein Variants

Protein Variants Comment Organism
Y85I mutation of Tyr85 in human OAT to Ile decreases the rate of the reaction of the enzyme with ornithine 1000fold and increases that with 4-aminobutyrate 16fold, indicating that Tyr85 is a major determinant of specificity toward ornithine Homo sapiens

Inhibitors

Inhibitors Comment Organism Structure
