Kinetics and molecular modeling studies on the inhibition mechanism of GH13 α-glycosidases by small molecule ligands

Zusammenfassung:Alpha-glucosidase inhibitors play an important role in Diabetes Mellitus (DM) treatment since they prevent postprandial hyperglycemia. The Glycoside Hydrolase family 13 (GH13) is the major family of enzymes acting on substrates containing α-glucoside linkages, such as maltose and amylose/amylopectin chains in starch. Previously, our group identified glycoconjugate 1H-1,2,3-triazoles (GCTs) inhibiting two GH13 α-glycosidases: yeast maltase (MAL12) and porcine pancreatic amylase (PPA). Here, we combined kinetic studies and computational methods on nine GCTs to characterize their inhibitory mechanism. They all behaved as reversible inhibitors, and kinetic models encompassed noncompetitive and various mechanisms of mixed-type inhibition for both enzymes. Most potent inhibitors displayed Ki values of 30 μM for MAL12 (GPESB16) and 37 μM for PPA (GPESB15). Molecular dynamics and docking simulations indicated that on MAL12, GPESB15 and GPESB16 bind in a cavity adjacent to the active site, while on the PPA, GPESB15 was predicted to bind at the entrance of the catalytic site. Notably, despite its putative location within the active site, the binding of GPESB15 does not obstruct the substrate's access to the cleavage site. Our study contributes to paving the way for developing novel therapeutic strategies for managing DM-2 through GH13 α-glycosidases inhibition.
