الوصف: | Surface localized microbial enolases' binding with human plasminogen has been increasingly proven to have an important role in initial infection cycle of several human pathogens.Likewise, surface localized Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) enolase also binds to human plasminogen, and this interaction may entail crucial consequences for granuloma stability. The current study is the first attempt to explore the plasminogen interacting residues of enolase from Mtb. Beginning with the structural modeling of Mtbenolase, the binding pose of Mtbenolase and human plasminogen was predicted using protein-protein docking simulations. The binding pose revealed the interface region with interacting residues and molecular interactions. Next, the interacting residues were refined and ranked by using various criteria. Finally, the selected interacting residues were tested experimentally for their involvement in plasminogen binding. The two consecutive lysine residues, Lys-193 and Lys-194, turned out to be active residues for plasminogen binding. These residues when substituted for alanine along with the most active residue Lys-429 i.e., the triple mutant (K193A + K194A + K429A) Mtb enolase, exhibited40% reduction in plasminogen binding. It is worth noting that Mtb enolase lost nearly half of the plasminogen binding activity with only three simultaneous substitutions, without any significant secondary structure perturbation. Further, the sequence comparison between Mtb and human enolase isoforms suggests the possibility of selective targeting of Mtb enolase to obstruct binding of human plasminogen.
