Molecular docking based virtual screening of the breast cancer target NUDT5.

ABSTRACT: Breast cancer affects one in eight women in Bangladesh and is the most common cancer among women in South Asia next to skin cancer. NUDT5 are nucleotide-metabolizing enzymes (NUDIX hydrolases) linked with the ADP ribose and 8-oxo-guanine metabolism. It is known to be associated with the hormone dependent gene regulation and proliferation in breast cancer cells. It blocks progestin-dependent, PAR-derived nuclear ATP synthesis and subsequent chromatin remodeling, gene regulation and proliferation in this context. We describe the structure based binding features of a lead compound (7-[[5-(3, 4-dichlorophenyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-yl]methyl]-1,3-dimethyl-8piperazin-1yl-purine-2,6-dione-C20H20Cl2N8O3) with NUDT5 for further in vitro and in vivo validation. It is a promising inhibitor for blocking NUDT5 activity. Thus, structure based virtual screening is used to identify a potential therapeutic inhibitor for NUDT5.

Structure-based virtual screening and molecular docking for the identification of potential multi-targeted inhibitors against breast cancer.

Project description:Breast cancer is characterized by an uncontrolled growth of cells in breast tissue. Genes that foster cell growth in breast cells are overexpressed, giving rise to breast tumors. The identification of effective inhibitors represents a rational chemopreventive strategy. The current in silico study provides a pharmacoinformatic approach for the identification of active compounds against a co-chaperone HSP90 and the human epidermal growth factor receptors EGFR and HER2/neu receptor. The elevated levels of expression of these target proteins have been documented in breast cancer. The utilization of drug-likeness filters helped to evaluate the pharmacological activity of potential lead compounds. Those fulfilling this criterion were subjected to energy minimization for 1000 steepest descent steps at a root means square gradient of 0.02 with an Amber ff12SB force field. Based on molecular docking results and binding interaction analysis, this study represents five chemical compounds (S-258282355, S-258012947, S-259417539, S-258002927, and S-259411474) that indicate high binding energies that range between -8.7 to -10.3 kcal/mol. With high cytochrome P inhibitory promiscuity activity, these multi-targeted potential hits portray not only good physiochemical interactions but also an excellent profile of absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion, and toxicity, which hypothesizes that these compounds can be developed as anticancer drugs in the near future.

Design, molecular docking, and molecular dynamics of thiourea-iron (III) metal complexes as NUDT5 inhibitors for breast cancer treatment.

Project description:In research, anticancer agents, such as thiourea derivative compounds, and metal complexes, such as those complexed with iron (III) metal, are often studied. The metal complexes are presumably more active than thiourea derivatives as free ligands; some negative effects may be reduced. The computational studies used in this study involved molecular docking with AutoDock and molecular dynamics (MD) simulations using Desmond to evaluate the stability of the interactions. The docking and MD analysis results showed that compounds 2 and 6 had stable interactions with NUDIX hydrolase type 5 (NUDT5)-one of the therapeutic targets for breast cancer-where they had the lowest root mean square deviation (RMSD) and root mean square fluctuation (RMSF) values compared to the other compounds. Together, these compounds are anti-breast cancer drug candidates.

Towards an Enrichment Optimization Algorithm (EOA)-based Target Specific Docking Functions for Virtual Screening.

Project description:Docking-based virtual screening (VS) is a common starting point in many drug discovery projects. While ligand-based approaches may sometimes provide better results, the advantage of docking lies in its ability to provide reliable ligand binding modes and approximated binding free energies, two factors that are important for hit selection and optimization. Most docking programs were developed to be as general as possible and consequently their performances on specific targets may be sub-optimal. With this in mind, in this work we present a method for the development of target-specific scoring functions using our recently reported Enrichment Optimization Algorithm (EOA). EOA derives QSAR models in the form of multiple linear regression (MLR) equations by optimizing an enrichment-like metric. Since EOA requires target-specific active and inactive (or decoy) compounds, we retrieved such data for six targets from the DUD-E database, and used them to re-derive the weights associated with the components that make up GOLD's ChemPLP scoring function yielding target-specific, modified functions. We then used the original ChemPLP function in small-scale VS experiments on the six targets and subsequently rescored the resulting poses with the modified functions. In addition, we used the modified functions for compounds re-docking. We found that in many although not all cases, either rescoring the original ChemPLP poses or repeating the entire docking process with the modified functions, yielded better results in terms of AUC and EF1% , two metrics, common for the evaluation of VS performances. While work on additional datasets and docking tools is clearly required, we propose that the results obtained thus far hint to the potential benefits in using EOA-based optimization for the derivation of target-specific functions in the context of virtual screening. To this end, we discuss the downsides of the methods and how it could be improved.

Virtual screening of RAGE inhibitors using molecular docking.

Project description:Advanced Glycation End products (AGEs) interaction with Receptor for AGEs (RAGE) activates downstream signaling and evokes inflammatory responses in vascular cells. Therefore, it is of interest to design a novel series of molecules with a library of 352 compounds based on natural Isoflavone and Argpyrimidine moities. The compounds screened against the optimized structure of RAGE (PDB code: 3CJJ) using MolDock aided with molecular docking algorithm. This exercise identified compound number 62 with appreciable ADME properties having no toxicity and pharmacophore features. Therefore, compound 62 identified as a RAGE inhibitor is proposed for further validation in the context of Diabetic Retinopathy (DR) and vascular complications.

Identification of Novel Src Inhibitors: Pharmacophore-Based Virtual Screening, Molecular Docking and Molecular Dynamics Simulations.

Project description:Src plays a crucial role in many signaling pathways and contributes to a variety of cancers. Therefore, Src has long been considered an attractive drug target in oncology. However, the development of Src inhibitors with selectivity and novelty has been challenging. In the present study, pharmacophore-based virtual screening and molecular docking were carried out to identify potential Src inhibitors. A total of 891 molecules were obtained after pharmacophore-based virtual screening, and 10 molecules with high docking scores and strong interactions were selected as potential active molecules for further study. Absorption, distribution, metabolism, elimination and toxicity (ADMET) property evaluation was used to ascertain the drug-like properties of the obtained molecules. The proposed inhibitor-protein complexes were further subjected to molecular dynamics (MD) simulations involving root-mean-square deviation and root-mean-square fluctuation to explore the binding mode stability inside active pockets. Finally, two molecules (ZINC3214460 and ZINC1380384) were obtained as potential lead compounds against Src kinase. All these analyses provide a reference for the further development of novel Src inhibitors.

Pharmacophore-based virtual screening versus docking-based virtual screening: a benchmark comparison against eight targets.

Project description:AIM: This study was conducted to compare the efficiencies of two virtual screening approaches, pharmacophore-based virtual screening (PBVS) and docking-based virtual screening (DBVS) methods. METHODS: All virtual screens were performed on two data sets of small molecules with both actives and decoys against eight structurally diverse protein targets, namely angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE), acetylcholinesterase (AChE), androgen receptor (AR), D-alanyl-D-alanine carboxypeptidase (DacA), dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR), estrogen receptors alpha (ERalpha), HIV-1 protease (HIV-pr), and thymidine kinase (TK). Each pharmacophore model was constructed based on several X-ray structures of protein-ligand complexes. Virtual screens were performed using four screening standards, the program Catalyst for PBVS and three docking programs (DOCK, GOLD and Glide) for DBVS. RESULTS: Of the sixteen sets of virtual screens (one target versus two testing databases), the enrichment factors of fourteen cases using the PBVS method were higher than those using DBVS methods. The average hit rates over the eight targets at 2% and 5% of the highest ranks of the entire databases for PBVS are much higher than those for DBVS. CONCLUSION: The PBVS method outperformed DBVS methods in retrieving actives from the databases in our tested targets, and is a powerful method in drug discovery.

Molecular docking based virtual screening of compounds for inhibiting sortase A in L.monocytogenes.

Project description:Listeriosis is considered as an important public health issue. Sortase A (srtA) is an enzyme with catalytic role in L. monocytogenes that breaks the junction between threonine and glycine in the LPXTG motif (a key motif in internalin A (InlA) that plays an important role in listeriosis). Inactivation of srtA was shown to inhibit anchoring of the invasion protein InIA. This is in addition to inhibiting peptidoglycan-associated LPXTG proteins. Therefore, it is of interest to inhibit strA using potential molecules. Here, we describe the design of an inhibitor with high binding affinity to srtA with the ability to prevent the attachment of srtA to the LPXTG proteins such as InIJ. A homology model of Listeria monocytogenes Sortase A was developed using MODELLER (version 9.12). We screened StrA to 100,000 drug-like ligands from the Zinc database using Molecular docking and virtual screening tool PyRX). Pharmacokinetic analysis using the FAFDrugs(3) web server along with ADME and toxicity analysis based on Lipinski rule of five were adopted for the screening exercise followed by oral toxicity check using PROTOX (a server) for every 10 successive hits. The results from PROTOX server indicated that Lig #1 (with LD50 of 2000mg/kg) and Lig #7 (with LD50 of 2000mg/kg) have toxicity class 4 and Lig #3 (with LD50 of 14430mg/kg) has toxicity class 6. Subsequent modifications of these structures followed by FAFDrugs(3) analysis for high bioavailability value selected Lig #7 according to Lipinski rules of five. Thus, Lig #7 with IUPAC name ((R)-4-{(S)-1-[(S)-2-Amino-4-methylvaleryl]-2-pyrrolidinyl}-1-[(S)-1-(ethylamino) carbonyl-propylamino] -2-propyl-1, 4- butanedione) is suggested as a potential candidate for srtA inhibition for further consideration.

FLT3 inhibitor design using molecular docking based virtual screening for acute myeloid leukemia.

Project description:Acute Myeloid Leukaemia (AML) is a blood cancer, which affects the red blood cells in the bone marrow. Of the possible proteins that are affected in AML, fms-like tyrosine kinase 3 (FLT3) has long been recognized as a potential therapeutic target as it affects the other signaling pathways and leads to a cascade of events. First-generation inhibitors sorafenib and midostaurin, as well as secondgeneration agents such as quizartinib and crenolanib are known. It is of interest to identify new compounds against FLT3 with improved activity using molecular docking and virtual screening. Molecular docking of existing inhibitors selected a top scoring bestestablished candidate Quizartinib having PubChem CID: 24889392. Similarity searching resulted in compound XGIQBUNWFCCMASUHFFFAOYSA-NPubChemCID: 44598530 which shows higher affinity scores. A comparative study of both the compounds using a drug-drug comparison, ADMET studies, boiled egg plot and pharmacophore parameters and properties confirmed the result and predicted the ligand to be an efficient inhibitor of FLT3.

Drug repurposing against SARS-CoV-2 using E-pharmacophore based virtual screening, molecular docking and molecular dynamics with main protease as the target.

Project description:Since its first report in December 2019 from China, the COVID-19 pandemic caused by the beta-coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 has spread at an alarming pace infecting about 5.59 million, and claiming the lives of more than 0.35 million individuals across the globe. The lack of a clinically approved vaccine or drug remains the biggest bottleneck in combating the pandemic. Drug repurposing can expedite the process of drug development by identifying known drugs which are effective against SARS-CoV-2. The SARS-CoV-2 main protease is a promising drug target due to its indispensable role in viral multiplication inside the host. In the present study an E-pharmacophore hypothesis was generated using a crystal structure of the viral protease in complex with an imidazole carbaximide inhibitor. Drugs available in the superDRUG2 database were used to identify candidate drugs for repurposing. The hits obtained from the pharmacophore based screening were further screened using a structure based approach involving molecular docking at different precisions. The binding energies of the most promising compounds were estimated using MM-GBSA. The stability of the interactions between the selected drugs and the target were further explored using molecular dynamics simulation at 100 ns. The results showed that the drugs Binifibrate and Bamifylline bind strongly to the enzyme active site and hence they can be repurposed against SARS-CoV-2. However, U.S Food and Drug Administration have withdrawn Binifibrate from the market as it was having some adverse health effects on patients.Communicated by Ramaswamy H. Sarma.
