1. The molecule chosen for the analysis is Immunicillin -H. It is a transition state analogue for the enzyme purine nucleoside phosphorylase (PNP). Chemically Immunicillin -H is [(1S)-1-(9-deazahypozanthine-9yl)-1,4-dideoxy-1,4-imino-D-ribitol] (Kicska et al. 2001)
2. PNP is important for the degradation of nucleotides, especially deoxy guanosine. In the absence of this enzyme, deoxy guanosine accumulates and inhibits T cell function, causing T cell mediated immunosuppression. Inhibitors of PNP were found useful in treating T cell malignancies. Inhibiting PNP using transition state analogue, triggers apoptosis of T cells. Though Immunicillin-H inhibits stimulated malignant and nonmalignant T cells, ...
