Focused Structure-Based Virtual Screening Identifies Novel Inhibitors of SOS1
SOS1 is one of the key regulators of KRAS where it catalyzes the GTP-to-GDP turnover required for KRAS activation. Inhibition of the SOS1::KRAS interaction is an attractive strategy to modulate abnormal KRAS activation, which is responsible for several malignancies. In this work, we performed a virtual screening campaign on the AstraZeneca compound collection with Heavy Atom Count between 21 and 26 and identified two novel and efficient binders of SOS1 which fulfill the minimal pharmacophoric requirements disclosed in known compounds. Subsequently, structure- and knowledge-based approaches were applied to develop these binders into functional inhibitors of SOS1.
期刊介绍:
ACS Medicinal Chemistry Letters is interested in receiving manuscripts that discuss various aspects of medicinal chemistry. The journal will publish studies that pertain to a broad range of subject matter, including compound design and optimization, biological evaluation, drug delivery, imaging agents, and pharmacology of both small and large bioactive molecules. Specific areas include but are not limited to:
Identification, synthesis, and optimization of lead biologically active molecules and drugs (small molecules and biologics)
Biological characterization of new molecular entities in the context of drug discovery
Computational, cheminformatics, and structural studies for the identification or SAR analysis of bioactive molecules, ligands and their targets, etc.
Novel and improved methodologies, including radiation biochemistry, with broad application to medicinal chemistry
Discovery technologies for biologically active molecules from both synthetic and natural (plant and other) sources
Pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic studies that address mechanisms underlying drug disposition and response
Pharmacogenetic and pharmacogenomic studies used to enhance drug design and the translation of medicinal chemistry into the clinic
Mechanistic drug metabolism and regulation of metabolic enzyme gene expression
Chemistry patents relevant to the medicinal chemistry field.
