Abstract excerpt
Inosine monophosphate dehydrogenase (IMPDH) catalyzes the rate-limiting step of GTP biosynthesis. The multilevel regulation of the enzyme complicates its inhibition to treat diseases such as retinitis pigmentosa (RP) where modulation of the isozyme IMPDH1 is disrupted by mutations in a GTP-binding site on its regulatory CBS domain. Here, we hypothesize that upsetting the ATP-binding site 1 on the CBS domain,...
