Estas proteínas tienen como cofactores los derivados de riboflavina (RF, vitamina B2), mononucleótido de flavina (FMN) y/o dinucleótido de flavina y adenina (FAD), que les confieren propiedades únicas y versátiles. Todos los organismos contienen flavoproteínas y flavoenzimas clave, y muchas de ellas se han convertido en interesantes dianas terapéuticas o herramientas biotecnológicas. <br />En esta tesis, se ha indagado en los mecanismos moleculares de flavoenzimas y flavoproteínas con funciones metabólicas clave en procariotas y eucariotas, como las enzimas humanas RF quinasa (Publicación I), FAD sintetasa (FADS) (Publicación II) o NAD(P)H:quinona oxidorreductasa 1 (Publicación III), o las FADS procariotas (Publicaciones IV y V). La caracterización detallada de estas enzimas contribuye a la mejor comprensión de sus patologías asociadas, y sienta las bases de nuevas estrategias terapéuticas y del diseño de compuestos dirigidos a estas dianas. Por ejemplo, aquí presentamos una primera aproximación a la búsqueda de inhibidores de las FADS procariotas que puede contribuir a su explotación farmacológica como potencial agentes antimicrobianos (Publicaciones IV y V).<br />Esta Tesis Doctoral, presentada en la modalidad de compendio de publicaciones, incluye las siguientes publicaciones:<br />− Publicación I.

000100670 520__ $$aFlavoenzymes and flavoproteins are versatile and diverse biomolecules that are implicated in the energetic metabolism and other cellular processes such as signalling, nucleotide synthesis, protein folding or defense against oxidative stress. These proteins have as cofactors the riboflavin (RF, vitamin B2) derivatives flavin mononucleotide (FMN) and/or flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD), which confer them their unique and versatile properties. All organisms contain key flavoproteins and flavoenzymes, and many of them are becoming interesting as therapeutic targets or biotechnological tools. In the present thesis, we have delved into the molecular mechanisms of flavoenzymes with key metabolic functions in prokaryotes and eukaryotes, such as the human RF kinase (Publication I) and FAD synthase (FADS) (Publication II), human NAD(P)H:quinone oxidoreductase 1 (Publication III), and prokaryotic FADS (Publications IV and V). The detailed characterization of these enzymes contributes to the better understanding of their associated pathologies, and provides a framework to novel therapeutic strategies and to the design of compounds targeting them. For instance, here we show a first approximation for identification of inhibitors of the prokaryotic FADS that might contribute to exploit them as pharmacological antimicrobial drugs (Publications IV and V).
