Distortion of flavin geometry is linked to ligand binding in cholesterol oxidase.

ABSTRACT: Two high-resolution structures of a double mutant of bacterial cholesterol oxidase in the presence or absence of a ligand, glycerol, are presented, showing the trajectory of glycerol as it binds in a Michaelis complex-like position in the active site. A group of three aromatic residues forces the oxidized isoalloxazine moiety to bend along the N5-N10 axis as a response to the binding of glycerol in the active site. Movement of these aromatic residues is only observed in the glycerol-bound structure, indicating that some tuning of the FAD redox potential is caused by the formation of the Michaelis complex during regular catalysis. This structural study suggests a possible mechanism of substrate-assisted flavin activation, improves our understanding of the interplay between the enzyme, its flavin cofactor and its substrate, and is of use to the future design of effective cholesterol oxidase inhibitors.

Project description:Protein-ligand interactions are increasingly profiled at high-throughput, playing a vital role in lead compound discovery and drug optimization. Accurate prediction of binding pose and binding affinity constitutes a pivotal challenge in advancing our computational understanding of protein-ligand interactions. However, inherent limitations still exist, including high computational cost for conformational search sampling in traditional molecular docking tools, and the unsatisfactory molecular representation learning and intermolecular interaction modeling in deep learning-based methods. Here we propose a geometry-aware attention-based deep learning model, GAABind, which effectively predicts the pocket-ligand binding pose and binding affinity within a multi-task learning framework. Specifically, GAABind comprehensively captures the geometric and topological properties of both binding pockets and ligands, and employs expressive molecular representation learning to model intramolecular interactions. Moreover, GAABind proficiently learns the intermolecular many-body interactions and simulates the dynamic conformational adaptations of the ligand during its interaction with the protein through meticulously designed networks. We trained GAABind on the PDBbindv2020 and evaluated it on the CASF2016 dataset; the results indicate that GAABind achieves state-of-the-art performance in binding pose prediction and shows comparable binding affinity prediction performance. Notably, GAABind achieves a success rate of 82.8% in binding pose prediction, and the Pearson correlation between predicted and experimental binding affinities reaches up to 0.803. Additionally, we assessed GAABind's performance on the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 main protease cross-docking dataset. In this evaluation, GAABind demonstrates a notable success rate of 76.5% in binding pose prediction and achieves the highest Pearson correlation coefficient in binding affinity prediction compared with all baseline methods.
