Other claims from this paper (8)
- Observation GAPA1 from Arabidopsis thaliana binds salicylic acid with a KD of 16.7 nM.
- Intervention effect Salicylic acid inhibits GAPDH activity in vitro.
- Intervention effect NADH inhibited in a dose-response manner the binding of SA to GAPA1.
- Mechanism Modelling suggests that SA binds to the same site where the pyrimidine group of the NADP+ cofactor fits.
- Observation The molecular docking analysis identified two putative binding pockets for SA on GAPA1.
- Observation Only one surface cavity around Asn35 would efficiently bind SA in the presence of solvent.
- Observation In silico mutagenesis and simulations pointed to the importance of Asn35 and Arg81 in binding SA to GAPA1.
- Mechanism The same cavity that binds SA is responsible for NADP+ binding to GAPA1.
