Uracil accumulates in DNA as a result of impaired folate-dependent de novo thymidylate biosynthesis, a pathway composed of the enzymes serine hydroxymethyltransferase (SHMT), thymidylate synthase (TYMS), and dihydrofolate reductase. In G1, this pathway is present in the cytoplasm and at S phase undergoes small ubiquitin-like modifier-dependent translocation to the nucleus. It is not known wheth...
Molecular docking method was applied to research steric complementarity of 27 uracil derivatives modified into positions N, N, C, C by cyclic and acyclic substituents with the active site of thymidylate synthetase of mice Mus musculus. AutoDock 4.2 scoring function evaluated the thermodynamic characteristics of all compounds’ binding with the active site of the given enzyme. 17 uracil derivativ...
The hyperthermophilic anaerobic archaeon Pyrococcus abyssi, which lacks thymidine kinase, incorporates label from extracellular uracil, but not from thymidine, into its DNA. This implies that P. abyssi must synthesize dTMP (thymidylate), an essential precursor for DNA synthesis, de novo. However, iterative similarity searches of the three completed Pyrococcus genomes fail to detect candidate ge...
The ThyX enzymes that have recently been identified in various bacteria, including some important human pathogens such as Helicobacter pylori and Mycobacterium tuberculosis, are flavin-dependent thymidylate synthases that function in the place of classic thymidylate synthase enzymes in the biosynthesis of dTMP, which is one of the building blocks of DNA. They are promising targets for the devel...
Although deoxythymidylate cannot be provided directly by ribonucleotide reductase, the gene encoding thymidylate synthase ThyA is absent from the genomes of a large number of nonsymbiotic microbes. We show that ThyX (Thy1) proteins of previously unknown function form a large and distinct class of thymidylate synthases. ThyX has a wide but sporadic phylogenetic distribution, almost exclusively l...
Thymidylate synthase (TS) is a well-validated target for cancer chemotherapy. TS was established as the principal target of the widely used anticancer drug 5-fluorouracil (5FU). The 5FU metabolite FdUMP forms a covalent complex with TS that is stabilized by 5-formyl tetrahydrofolate (leucovorin; LV). Numerous chemical strategies have been employed to develop novel TS inhibitors that are superio...
Thymidylate synthase (TSase) catalyzes the intracellular de novo formation of thymidylate (a DNA building block) in most living organisms, making it a common target for chemotherapeutic and antibiotic drugs. Two mechanisms have been proposed for the rate-limiting hydride transfer step in TSase catalysis: a stepwise mechanism in which the hydride transfer precedes the cleavage of the covalent bo...
