Structural Insight into Multivalent Galactoside Binding to Pseudomonas aeruginosa Lectin LecA.
ACS Chemical Biology(2015)
摘要
Multivalent galactosides inhibiting Pseudomonas aeruginosa biofilms may help control this problematic pathogen. To understand the binding mode of tetravalent glycopeptide dendrimer GalAG2 [(Gal-beta-OC6H4CO-Lys-Pro-Leu)(4)(Lys-Phe-Lys-Ile)(2)Lys-His-Ile-NH2] to its target lectin LecA, crystal structures of LecA complexes with divalent analog GalAG1 [(Gal-beta-OC6H4CO-Lys-Pro-Leu)(2)Lys-Phe-Lys-Ile-NH2] and related glucose-triazole linked bis-galactosides 3u3 [Gal-beta-O(CH2)(n)-(C2HN3)-4-Glc-beta-(C2HN3)-[beta-Glc-4-(N3HC2)](2)-(CH2)(n)-O-beta-Gal (n = 1)] and 5u3 (n = 3) were obtained, revealing a chelate bound 3u3, cross-linked 5u3, and monovalently bound GalAG1. Nevertheless, a chelate bound model better explaining their strong LecA binding and the absence of lectin aggregation was obtained by modeling for all three ligands. A model, of the chelate bound GalAG2.LecA complex was also obtained rationalizing its unusually tight LecA binding (K-D = 2.5 nM) and aggregation by lectin cross-linking. The very weak biofilm inhibition with divalent LecA inhibitors suggests that lectin aggregation is necessary for biofilm inhibition by GalAG2, pointing to multivalent glycoclusters as a unique opportunity to control P. aeruginosa biofilms.
