Orotidine 5′-monophosphate (OMP) decarboxylase from Plasmodium falciparum (PfODCase, EC 4.1.1.23) has been overexpressed, purified, subjected to kinetic and biochemical analysis, and crystallized. The native enzyme is a homodimer with a subunit molecular mass of 38 kDa. The saturation curve for OMP as a substrate conformed to Michaelis-Menten kinetics with Km = 350 ± 60 nM and Vmax = 2.70 ± 0.10 μmol/min/mg protein. Inhibition patterns for nucleoside 5′-monophosphate analogues were linear competitive with respect to OMP with a decreasing potency of inhibition of PfODCase in the order: pyrazofurin 5′-monophosphate (Ki = 3.6 ± 0.7 nM) > xanthosine 5′-monophosphate (XMP, Ki = 4.4 ± 0.7 nM) > 6-azauridine 5′-monophosphate (AzaUMP, K i = 12 ±3 nM) > allopurinol-3-riboside 5′- monophosphate (Ki = 240 ± 20 nM). XMP is an ∼150-fold more potent inhibitor of PfODCase compared with the human enzyme. The structure of PfODCase was solved in the absence of ligand and displays a classic TIM-barrel fold characteristic of the enzyme. Both the phosphate-binding loop and the βα5-loop have conformational flexibility, which may be associated with substrate capture and product release along the reaction pathway. © 2008 American Chemical Society.
