text Guanylate-binding protein 1 (GBP1) mediates a two-step hydrolysis, first converting GTP to GDP and then GDP to GMP, a process facilitated by repositioning the nucleotide within the active site after the first hydrolysis (Ghosh et al., 2006; Schwemmle & Staeheli, 1994; Weismehl M et al., 2024). Following GDP hydrolysis, the GBP1 oligomer undergoes conformational changes that destabilize the GMP-bound GBP1 complex, ultimately leading to the release of GMP and GBP1 (Weismehl M et al., 2024). Released GMP is catabolized to uric acid, which may activate the NLRP3 inflammasome under certain conditions such as Chlamydia trachomatis infection (Xavier et al., 2020).
