EC Number Crystallization (Comment) Organism
1.5.1.3 co-crystallization of the purified enzyme with inhibitor 2-amino-4-oxo-4,7-dihydro-pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidine-methyl-phenyl-L-glutamic acid and FdUMP in the TS site and NADPH and methotrexate in the DHFR site, X-ray diffraction structure determination and analysis at 3.45 A resolution, PDB ID 4Q0D Cryptosporidium hominis
2.1.1.45 co-crystallization of the purified enzyme with inhibitor 2-amino-4-oxo-4,7-dihydro-pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidine-methyl-phenyl-L-glutamic acid and FdUMP in the TS site and NADPH and methotrexate in the DHFR site, X-ray diffraction structure determination and analysis at 3.45 A resolution, PDB ID 4Q0D Cryptosporidium hominis

Inhibitors

EC Number Inhibitors Comment Organism Structure
1.5.1.3 2-amino-4-oxo-4,7-dihydro-pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidine-methyl-phenyl-L-glutamic acid potent enzyme inhibitor with anti-cryptosporidial activity in cell culture, chemical synthesis, overview. The inhibitor forms several hydrogen bonds and van der Waals interactions with the DHFR active site residues, binding close to the nicotinamide ring of NADPH. The carbonyl oxygens of the catalytic D32 hydrogen bond with N3 of the inhibitor forming a fork that holds the inhibitor in optimal position bound to the enzyme Cryptosporidium hominis

Cryptosporidium hominis
1.5.1.3 NADPH NADPH binds in an extended form making several hydrophobic and hydrogen bond interactions with the protein residues. The hydrophobic pocket consists of residues V9, A11, L25, I62 and T134 interacting with the pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidine scaffold whereas T40 and F36 interact with the phenyl ring of inhibitor 2-amino-4-oxo-4,7-dihydro-pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidine-methyl-phenyl-L-glutamic acid Cryptosporidium hominis
