Capturing the Dynamic Conformational Changes of Human Isocitrate Dehydrogenase 1 (IDH1) upon Ligand and Metal Binding Using Hydrogen-Deuterium Exchange Mass Spectrometry.

Human isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 (IDH1) is a highly conserved metabolic enzyme that catalyzes the interconversion of isocitrate and α-ketoglutarate. Kinetic and structural studies with IDH1 have revealed evidence of striking conformational changes that occur upon binding of its substrates, isocitrate and NADP, and its catalytic metal cation. Here, we used hydrogen-deuterium exchange mass spectrometry (HDX-MS) to build a comprehensive map of the dynamic conformational changes experienced by IDH1 upon ligand binding.
