Their correct consideration is key to successful drug design campaigns, since chemoinformatic tools usually deal with default protonation states of ligands and proteins and miss atypical protonation states. The protonation pattern for the Endothiapepsin/PepstatinA (EP/pepA) complex is investigated using different dry lab and wet lab techniques. ITC experiments revealed an uptake of more than one mole of protons upon pepA binding to EP. Since these experiments were performed at physiological conditions (and not at pH=4 at which a large variety of crystal structures is available), a novel crystal structure at pH=7.6 was determined. This crystal structure showed that only modest structural changes occur upon increasing the pH value. This lead to computational studies (Poisson Boltzmann calculations and constant pH MD simulations) to reveal the exact location of the protonation event. Both computational studies could reveal a significant pKa shift resulting in non-default protonation state and that the catalytic dyad is responsible for the uptake of protons. This study shows that assessing protonation states for two separate systems (protein and ligand) might result in the incorrect assignment of protonation states and hence incorrect calculation of binding energy.</p>","PeriodicalId":147,"journal":{"name":"ChemMedChem","volume":" ","pages":"e202400953"},"PeriodicalIF":3.6,"publicationDate":"2025-01-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142977018","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Structural activity relationship (SAR) studies in medicinal chemistry are crucial for lead optimization, where a subtle change in the substituent can significantly alter its binding affinity with the biological target. Herein, a highly efficient single-atom substitution (SAS) approach has been developed, where sulfur for oxygen strategy is utilized as a powerful molecular editing technique to identify N-vinyl Indole-thiobarbituric acid (6 a) as a novel small molecule-based scaffold with tunable photophysical and antiproliferative activities. A series of NIR-emitting indole-barbituric/thiobarbituric acid conjugates exhibiting aggregation-induced emission (AIE) were prepared, where the replacement of oxygen for sulfur strategy emerged as a magic bullet. On the evaluation of photophysical properties and chemopreventive efficacies, a significant improvement in the absorption and emission profile, cellular uptake, and antiproliferative activity was noted for sulfur counterparts. From the pool of the molecules, the lead molecule 6 a unveils a 55 nm emission shift, 142-fold increased anticancer profile, and ~4-fold elevated cellular uptake. Furthermore, the colocalization experiment unravels the nuclear localization of 6 a, where it causes severe DNA damage, arrests the cell cycle in the G2/M phase, and leads to the activation of p53-mediated apoptosis.
