ZUSAMMENFASSUNG
Stop for NadA! A [4Fe-4S] enzyme, NadA, catalyzes the formation of quinolinic acid in de novo nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) biosynthesis. A structural analogue of an intermediate, 4,5-dithiohydroxyphthalic acid (DTHPA), has an in vivo NAD biosynthesis inhibiting activity in E. coli. The inhibitory effect can be explained by the coordination of DTHPA thiolate groups to a unique Fe site of the NadA [4Fe-4S] cluster.
