PoseEdit automatically produces high-quality 2D diagrams of intermolecular interactions in 3D binding sites calculated from ligands in complex with protein, DNA, and RNA. The PoseView diagrams have been improved in several aspects, most notably in their interactivity. Thanks to the easy-to-use 2D editor of PoseEdit, the diagrams are extensively editable and extendible by the user, can be merged with other diagrams, and even be created from scratch. A large variety of graphical objects in the diagram can be moved, rotated, selected and highlighted, mirrored, removed, or even newly added. Furthermore, PoseEdit enables a synchronized 2D-3D view of macromolecule-ligand complexes simplifying the analysis of structural features and interactions. The representation of individual diagram objects regarding their visualized chemical properties, like stereochemistry, and general graphical styles, like the color of interactions, can additionally be edited. The primary objective of PoseEdit is to support scientists with an enhanced way to communicate ligand binding mode information through graphical 2D representations optimized with the scientist’s input in accordance with objective criteria and individual needs.

Here, we construct and benchmark a tool for this purpose based on a recently reported statistical energy model named SCUBA (Sidechain-Unknown Backbone Arrangement) for designing protein backbones without considering specific amino acid sequences. With this tool, backbone fragments of different local conformation types are generated and optimized with SCUBA-driven stochastic simulations and simulated annealing, and then ranked and clustered to obtain representative backbone fragment poses of strong SCUBA interaction energies with the receptor. We computationally benchmarked the tool on 111 known protein-peptide complex structures. When the bound ligands are in the strand conformation, the method is able to generate backbone fragments of both low SCUBA energies and low root mean square deviations from experimental structures of peptide ligands. When the bound ligands are helices or coils, low-energy backbone fragments with binding poses similar to experimental structures have been generated for approximately 50% of benchmark cases. We have examined a number of predicted ligand-receptor complexes by atomistic molecular dynamics simulations, in which the peptide ligands have been found to stay at the predicted binding sites and to maintain their local conformations. These results suggest that promising backbone structures of peptides bound to protein receptors can be designed by identifying outstanding minima on the SCUBA-modeled backbone energy landscape.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":621,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Computer-Aided Molecular Design","volume":"37 10","pages":"463 - 478"},"PeriodicalIF":3.5,"publicationDate":"2023-07-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"5048225","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Positively charged colistin binds to negatively charged lipids and damages the outer membrane of Gram-negative bacteria. However, the MCR-1 protein, encoded by the mobile colistin resistance (<i>mcr</i>) gene, is involved in bacterial colistin resistance by catalysing phosphoethanolamine (PEA) transfer onto lipid A, neutralising its negative charge, and thereby reducing its interaction with colistin. Our preliminary results showed that treatment with a reference pyrazolone compound significantly reduced colistin minimal inhibitory concentrations in <i>Escherichia coli</i> expressing <i>mcr-1</i> mediated colistin resistance (Hanpaibool et al. in ACS Omega, 2023). A docking-MD combination was used in an ensemble-based docking approach to identify further pyrazolone compounds as candidate MCR-1 inhibitors. Docking simulations revealed that 13/28 of the pyrazolone compounds tested are predicted to have lower binding free energies than the reference compound. Four of these were chosen for in vitro testing, with the results demonstrating that all the compounds tested could lower colistin MICs in an <i>E. coli</i> strain carrying the <i>mcr-1</i> gene.

Identifying these characteristics is a key challenge for developing new drugs, and quantitative structure-activity relationship (QSAR) analysis has generally been used to perform this task. QSAR models with good predictive power improve the cost and time efficiencies invested in compound development. Generating these good models depends on how well differences between “active” and “inactive” compound groups can be conveyed to the model to be learned. Efforts to solve this difference issue have been made, including generating a “molecular descriptor” that compressively expresses the structural characteristics of compounds. From the same perspective, we succeeded in developing the Activity Differences-Quantitative Structure-Activity Relationship (ADis-QSAR) model by generating molecular descriptors that more explicitly convey features of the group through a pair system that performs direct connections between active and inactive groups. We used popular machine learning algorithms, such as Support Vector Machine, Random Forest, XGBoost and Multi-Layer Perceptron for model learning and evaluated the model using scores such as accuracy, area under curve, precision and specificity. The results showed that the Support Vector Machine performed better than the others. Notably, the ADis-QSAR model showed significant improvements in meaningful scores such as precision and specificity compared to the baseline model, even in datasets with dissimilar chemical spaces.
