The proximities of the Thr59's to the two A's also suggest the possibility of engineering stacking interactions by the substitution of threonine with each of the aromatic amino acids in the mutants we will call T59F, T59Y, and T59W.
An examination of the pairwise alignments generated by these searches showed that all these proteins shared a characteristic set of residues, including two highly conserved aromatic residues at the N- and C-termini, respectively, and two consecutive acidic residues near the C-terminus.
Two recent publications by the Khosla laboratory at Stanford University describe significant advances in understanding aromatic PKS programming and promise to turn the spotlight back onto engineered members of this class of compounds as potential drug candidates by allowing rational manipulation of the two key variables: carbon chain length and choice of starter unit.
Mutating the conserved arginine residue at position 554 to a tryptophan causes a loss of a polar residue and replacement with a much larger aromatic group.
Analysis of biophores #1, #2 (#4, #5) showed that both of them occur in substituted 5-[4-(benzyloxy) phenyl]-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-(3H)-ones and their analogs (Figure 1), many of which are known to be strong MAO-B inhibitors [ 9 ] . Biophore #2 represents a flexible -CH 2 O- bridge between aryl moieties and was found to enhance the activity and selectivity of the inhibitors as shown in the original work [ 9 ] . Biophores #1 and #2 include aromatic moieties, whose main function is presumably to bind to the hydrophobic site of MAO.
