Sequence variation data of the human proteome can be used to analyze 3D protein structures to derive functional insights. We used genetic variant data from nearly 140,000 individuals to analyze 3D positional conservation in 4,715 proteins and 3,951 homology models using 860,292 missense and 465,886 synonymous variants. Sixty percent of protein structures harbor at least one intolerant 3D site as defined by significant depletion of observed over expected missense variation. Structural intolerance data correlated with deep mutational scanning functional readouts for PPARG, MAPK1/ERK2, UBE2I, SUMO1, PTEN, CALM1, CALM2, and TPK1 and with shallow mutagenesis data for 1,026 proteins. The 3D structural intolerance analysis revealed different features for ligand binding pockets and orthosteric and allosteric sites. Large-scale data on human genetic variation support a definition of functional 3D sites proteome-wide.

Background: Poor selectivity of drug candidates may lead to toxicity and side effects accounting for as high as 60% failure rate, thus, the selectivity is consistently significant and challenging for drug discovery. Objective: To find highly specific small molecules towards very similar protein targets, multiple strategies are always employed, including (1) To make use of the diverse shape of binding pocket to avoid steric bump; (2) To increase binding affinities for favorite residues; (3) To achieve selectivity through allosteric regulation of target; (4) To stabalize the inactive conformation of protein target and (5) To occupy dual binding pockets of single target. Conclusion: In this review, we summarize computational strategies along with examples of their successful applications in designing selective ligands, with the aim to provide insights into everdiversifying drug development practice and inspire medicinal chemists to utilize computational strategies to avoid potential side effects due to low selectivity of ligands.

Identification of novel protein binding sites expands «druggable genome» and opens new opportunities for drug discovery. Generally, presence or absence of a binding site depends on the three-dimensional conformation of a protein, making binding site identification resemble to object detection problem in computer vision. Here we introduce a computational approach for the large-scale detection of protein binding sites, named BiteNet, that considers protein conformations as the 3D-images, binding sites as the objects on these images to detect, and conformational ensembles of proteins as the 3D-videos to analyze. BiteNet is suitable for spatiotemporal detection of hard-to-spot allosteric binding sites, as we showed for conformation-specific binding site of the epidermal growth factor receptor, oligomer-specific binding site of the ion channel, and binding sites in G protein-coupled receptors. BiteNet outperforms state-of-the-art methods both in terms of accuracy and speed, taking about 1.5 minute to analyze 1000 conformations of a protein with 2000 atoms. BiteNet is available at https://github.com/i-Molecule/bitenet.
