We have previously reported that the therapeutic antileukemic protein macromolecule Escherichia coli L-asparaginase is degraded by leukemic lysosomal cysteine proteases. In the present study, we successfully engineered L-asparaginaseto resist proteolytic cleavage and at the same time improve activity. We employed a novel combination of mutant sampling using a genetic algorithm in tandem with flexibility studies using molecular dynamics to investigate the impact of lid-loop and mutations on drug activity. Applying these methods, we successfully predicted the more active L-asparaginase mutants N24T and N24A. For the latter, a unique hydrogen bond network contributes to higher activity. Furthermore, interface mutations controlling secondary glutaminase activity demonstrated the importance of this enzymatic activity for drug cytotoxicity.

Acute lymphocytic leukemia (ALL) is an outrageous disease worldwide. Bacterial ASNase has been used for the treatment of ALL. Glutaminase activity of enzyme causes some side effect and it is not essential for anticancer activity. The aim of this study was engineering of Escherichia coli asparaginase II to find a mutant with reduced glutaminase activity by molecular docking, molecular dynamics (MD) and QM-MM (Quantum mechanics molecular dynamics) simulations. Residues with low free energy of binding to Asn and high free binding energy to Gln were chosen for mutagenesis. Then, a mutant with higher glutaminase free binding energy was selected for further studies. Additionally, the MD simulation and QM-MM computation of wild type (WT) were employed and the selected mutated ASNase were analyzed and discussed. Our data showed that V27T is a good candidate to reduction the glutaminase activity, while has no remarkable effect on asparaginase activity of the enzyme. The simulation analysis revealed that V27T mutant is more stable than WT and mutant simulation was successful completely. QM-MM results confirmed the successfulness of our mutagenesis.</p><div class="ds-related-work--ctas"><button class="ds2-5-text-link ds2-5-text-link--inline js-swp-download-button" data-signup-modal="{"location":"wsj-grid-card-download-pdf-modal","work_title":"Novel mutant of Escherichia coli asparaginase II to reduction of the glutaminase activity in treatment of acute lymphocytic leukemia by molecular dynamics simulations and QM-MM studies","attachmentId":119482288,"attachmentType":"pdf","work_url":"https://www.academia.edu/125439489/Novel_mutant_of_Escherichia_coli_asparaginase_II_to_reduction_of_the_glutaminase_activity_in_treatment_of_acute_lymphocytic_leukemia_by_molecular_dynamics_simulations_and_QM_MM_studies","alternativeTracking":true}"><span class="material-symbols-outlined" style="font-size: 18px" translate="no">download</span><span class="ds2-5-text-link__content">Download free PDF</span></button><a class="ds2-5-text-link ds2-5-text-link--inline js-wsj-grid-card-view-pdf" href="https://www.academia.edu/125439489/Novel_mutant_of_Escherichia_coli_asparaginase_II_to_reduction_of_the_glutaminase_activity_in_treatment_of_acute_lymphocytic_leukemia_by_molecular_dynamics_simulations_and_QM_MM_studies"><span class="ds2-5-text-link__content">View PDF</span><span class="material-symbols-outlined" style="font-size: 18px" translate="no">chevron_right</span></a></div></div><div class="ds-related-work--container js-wsj-grid-card" data-collection-position="2" data-entity-id="96285374" data-sort-order="default"><a class="ds-related-work--title js-wsj-grid-card-title ds2-5-body-md ds2-5-body-link" href="https://www.academia.edu/96285374/Catalytic_Role_of_the_Substrate_Defines_Specificity_of_Therapeutic_l_Asparaginase">Catalytic Role of the Substrate Defines Specificity of Therapeutic l-Asparaginase</a><div class="ds-related-work--metadata"><a class="js-wsj-grid-card-author ds2-5-body-sm ds2-5-body-link" data-author-id="32819717" href="https://umd.academia.edu/SergeiSukharev">Sergei Sukharev</a></div><p class="ds-related-work--metadata ds2-5-body-xs">Journal of Molecular Biology, 2015</p><p class="ds-related-work--abstract ds2-5-body-sm">Type II bacterial L-asparaginases (L-ASP) have played an important therapeutic role in cancer treatment for over four decades, yet their exact reaction mechanism remains elusive.

The substrate's catalytic role is likely the determining factor in enzyme specificity as it constrains the allowed distance between the backbone carboxyl and the amide carbon of any L-ASP substrate.</p><div class="ds-related-work--ctas"><button class="ds2-5-text-link ds2-5-text-link--inline js-swp-download-button" data-signup-modal="{"location":"wsj-grid-card-download-pdf-modal","work_title":"Catalytic role of the substrate defines specificity of therapeutic L-asparaginase (L-ASP)","attachmentId":42114034,"attachmentType":"pdf","work_url":"https://www.academia.edu/21574938/Catalytic_role_of_the_substrate_defines_specificity_of_therapeutic_L_asparaginase_L_ASP_","alternativeTracking":true}"><span class="material-symbols-outlined" style="font-size: 18px" translate="no">download</span><span class="ds2-5-text-link__content">Download free PDF</span></button><a class="ds2-5-text-link ds2-5-text-link--inline js-wsj-grid-card-view-pdf" href="https://www.academia.edu/21574938/Catalytic_role_of_the_substrate_defines_specificity_of_therapeutic_L_asparaginase_L_ASP_"><span class="ds2-5-text-link__content">View PDF</span><span class="material-symbols-outlined" style="font-size: 18px" translate="no">chevron_right</span></a></div></div><div class="ds-related-work--container js-wsj-grid-card" data-collection-position="4" data-entity-id="123589069" data-sort-order="default"><a class="ds-related-work--title js-wsj-grid-card-title ds2-5-body-md ds2-5-body-link" href="https://www.academia.edu/123589069/The_glutaminase_activity_of_l_asparaginase_is_not_required_for_anticancer_activity_against_ASNS_negative_cells">The glutaminase activity of l-asparaginase is not required for anticancer activity against ASNS-negative cells</a><div class="ds-related-work--metadata"><a class="js-wsj-grid-card-author ds2-5-body-sm ds2-5-body-link" data-author-id="32819717" href="https://umd.academia.edu/SergeiSukharev">Sergei Sukharev</a></div><p class="ds-related-work--metadata ds2-5-body-xs">Blood, 2014</p><p class="ds-related-work--abstract ds2-5-body-sm">• We used molecular dynamics, saturation mutagenesis, and enzymologic screening to develop a glutaminase-free mutant (Q59L) L-ASP. • We then used Q59L to show that glutaminase activity is not required for L-ASP activity against ASNS-negative cancer cells. L-Asparaginase (L-ASP) is a key component of therapy for acute lymphoblastic leukemia. Its mechanism of action, however, is still poorly understood, in part because of its dual asparaginase and glutaminase activities. Here, we show that L-ASP's glutaminase activity is not always required for the enzyme's anticancer effect. We first used molecular dynamics simulations of the clinically standard Escherichia coli L-ASP to predict what mutated forms could be engineered to retain activity against asparagine but not glutamine. Dynamic mapping of enzyme substrate contacts identified Q59 as a promising mutagenesis target for that purpose. Saturation mutagenesis followed by enzymatic screening identified Q59L as a variant that retains asparaginase activity but shows undetectable glutaminase activity. Unlike wild-type L-ASP, Q59L is inactive against cancer cells that express measurable asparagine synthetase (ASNS). Q59L is potently active, however, against ASNS-negative cells. Those observations indicate that the glutaminase activity of L-ASP is necessary for anticancer activity against ASNS-positive cell types but not ASNS-negative cell types. Because the clinical toxicity of L-ASP is thought to stem from its glutaminase activity, these findings suggest the hypothesis that glutaminase-negative variants of L-ASP would provide larger therapeutic indices than wild-type</p><div class="ds-related-work--ctas"><button class="ds2-5-text-link ds2-5-text-link--inline js-swp-download-button" data-signup-modal="{"location":"wsj-grid-card-download-pdf-modal","work_title":"The glutaminase activity of l-asparaginase is not required for anticancer activity against ASNS-negative cells","attachmentId":117986228,"attachmentType":"pdf","work_url":"https://www.academia.edu/123589069/The_glutaminase_activity_of_l_asparaginase_is_not_required_for_anticancer_activity_against_ASNS_negative_cells","alternativeTracking":true}"><span class="material-symbols-outlined" style="font-size: 18px" translate="no">download</span><span class="ds2-5-text-link__content">Download free PDF</span></button><a class="ds2-5-text-link ds2-5-text-link--inline js-wsj-grid-card-view-pdf" href="https://www.academia.edu/123589069/The_glutaminase_activity_of_l_asparaginase_is_not_required_for_anticancer_activity_against_ASNS_negative_cells"><span class="ds2-5-text-link__content">View PDF</span><span class="material-symbols-outlined" style="font-size: 18px" translate="no">chevron_right</span></a></div></div><div class="ds-related-work--container js-wsj-grid-card" data-collection-position="5" data-entity-id="112458865" data-sort-order="default"><a class="ds-related-work--title js-wsj-grid-card-title ds2-5-body-md ds2-5-body-link" href="https://www.academia.edu/112458865/Engineering_the_substrate_specificity_of_i_Escherichia_coli_i_asparaginase_II_Selective_reduction_of_glutaminase_activity_by_amino_acid_replacements_at_position_248">Engineering the substrate specificity of<i>Escherichia coli</i>asparaginase II.

The treatment of choice for this disease is the enzyme L-asparaginase (ASNase) from bacterial sources. ASNase hydrolyzes circulating L-asparagine in plasma, leading to starvation of leukemic cells. The ASNase formulations of E. coli and E. chrysanthemi present notorious adverse effects, especially the immunogenicity they generate, which undermines both their effectiveness as drugs and patient safety. In this study, we developed a humanized chimeric enzyme from E. coli L-asparaginase, which would reduce the immunological problems associated with current L-asparaginase therapy. For these, the immunogenic epitopes of E. coli L-asparaginase (PDB: 3ECA) were determined and replaced with those of the less immunogenic Homo sapiens asparaginase (PDB:4O0H).

L-Asparagine (L-Asn) and L-Glutamine (L-Gln) deamination play a crucial role in ALL treatment. Role of Elspar Ò (L-asparaginase from Escherichia coli) in regulation of L-Asn and L-Gln has been confirmed by the other researchers through experimental studies. Therapeutic research against ALL remained elusive with the lack of information on molecular interactions of Elspar Ò with amino acid substrates. In the present study, using different docking tools binding cavities, key residues in binding and ligand binding mechanisms were identified. For the apo state enzyme and ligand bound state complexes, MD simulations were performed. Trajectory analysis for 30 ns run confirmed the kinship of L-Asn with Lasparaginase enzyme in the dynamic system with less stability in comparison to L-Gln docked complex. Overall findings strongly supported the bi-functional nature of the enzyme drug. A good number of conformational changes were observed with 1NNS structure due to ligand binding. Results of present study give much more information on structural and functional aspects of E. coli L-asparaginase upon the interaction with its ligands which may be useful in designing effective therapeutics for ALL.

Here, we attempted to disentangle the relationship between asparagine metabolism, glutamine metabolism, and downstream pathways that modulate cell viability by testing the hypothesis that ASNase anticancer activity is based on asparagine depletion rather than glutamine depletion per se. We tested ASNase wild-type (ASNase WT) and its glutaminase-deficient Q59L mutant (ASNase Q59L) and found that ASNase glutaminase activity contributed to durable anticancer activity against xenografts of the ASNS-negative Sup-B15 leukemia cell line in NOD/SCID gamma mice, whereas asparaginase activity alone yielded a mere growth delay.
