A nucleotide-controlled conformational switch modulates the activity of eukaryotic IMP dehydrogenases

Abstract Inosine-5′-monophosphate dehydrogenase (IMPDH) is an essential enzyme for nucleotide metabolism and cell proliferation. Despite IMPDH is the target of drugs with antiviral, immunosuppressive and antitumor activities, its physiological mechanisms of regulation remain largely unknown. Using t...
