In humans, the divalent metal ion transporter-1 (DMT1) mediates the transport of ferrous iron across the apical membrane of enterocytes. Hence, its inhibition could be beneficial for the treatment of iron overload disorders. Here we characterize the interaction of aromatic bis-isothiourea-substituted compounds with human DMT1 and its prokaryotic homologue EcoDMT. Both transporters are inhibited by a common competitive mechanism with potencies in the low micromolar range. The crystal structure of EcoDMT in complex with a brominated derivative defines the binding of the inhibitor to an extracellular pocket of the transporter in direct contact with residues of the metal ion coordination site, thereby interfering with substrate loading and locking the transporter in its outward-facing state. Mutagenesis and structure-activity relationships further support the observed interaction mode and reveal species-dependent differences between pro-and eukaryotic transporters. Together, our data provide the first detailed mechanistic insight into the pharmacology of SLC11/NRAMP transporters.
Steric Effects on the Binding of Phosphate and Polyphosphate Anions by Zinc(II) and Copper(II) Dinuclear Complexes of m-Xylyl-bis-cyclen
Esteves, Catarina V.,Esteban-Gómez, David,Platas-Iglesias, Carlos,Tripier, Rapha?l,Delgado, Rita

The triethylbenzene-bis-cyclen (cyclen = 1,4,7,10-tetraazacyclododecane) compound (tbmce) was designed with an imposed structural rigidity at the m-xylyl spacer to be compared to a less restrained and known parent compound (bmce). The framework of both co

A new optical absorption-based disposable sensor for nitrate is described. The nitrate-sensitive element is a bicyclic cyclophane receptor next to a suitable pH-sensitive lipophilic dye immobilized in a plasticized polymeric membrane. The rigid amide-base
Metal triggered fluorescence sensing of citrate using a synthetic receptor
Cabell, Larry A.
, p. 315 - 323 (2007/10/03)
A metal containing fluorescent chemosensor was designed, synthesized, and studied for the quantification of citrate in common beverages. The sensor consists of Cu(II) bound by a 1,10-phenanthroline ligand which is attached to a bis(aminoimidazolium) recep
Synthesis, characterization and reactivity of copper(I) imidazole complexes based on a cavitand ligand design
