Journal ArticleDOI

Structure of glutamate carboxypeptidase II, a drug target in neuronal damage and prostate cancer.

TL;DR: Three‐dimensional structures presented here reveal an induced‐fit substrate‐binding mode of this key enzyme and provide essential information for the design of GCPII inhibitors useful in the treatment of neuronal diseases and prostate cancer.
Journal ArticleDOI

Interactions between Human Glutamate Carboxypeptidase II and Urea-Based Inhibitors: Structural Characterization†

TL;DR: X-ray structures of four complexes between human GCPII and urea-based inhibitors at high resolution are determined and a hydrophobic pocket accessory to the S1 site is identified that can be exploited for structure-based design of novel G CPII inhibitors with increased lipophilicity.
Journal ArticleDOI

A Remote Arene-Binding Site on Prostate Specific Membrane Antigen Revealed by Antibody-Recruiting Small Molecules.

TL;DR: In-depth biochemical, crystallographic, and computational investigations reveal a previously unreported arene-binding site on PSMA, which is believed to participate in an aromatic stacking interaction with ARMs, which provides critical insights into the design of PSMA-targeted small molecules.
Journal ArticleDOI

Substrate specificity, inhibition and enzymological analysis of recombinant human glutamate carboxypeptidase II.

TL;DR: In this paper, an extracellular portion of human glutamate carboxypeptidase II (amino acids 44-750) was obtained from Drosophila Schneider's cells and its purification to homogeneity was established.
Journal ArticleDOI

Expression of glutamate carboxypeptidase II in human brain.

TL;DR: Investigation of the activity and expression of GCPII in various compartments of the human brain using a radiolabeled substrate of the enzyme and the novel monoclonal antibody GCP-04 shows that this antibody is more sensitive in immunoblots than the widely used antibody 7E11.
