Recently, an important topic of liver tumorigenesis had been published in 2013. In this report, Ras and Rho had defined the relation of liver tumorigenesis. The traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) database has been screened for molecular compounds by simulating molecular docking and molecular dynamics to regulate Ras and liver tumorigenesis. Saussureamine C, S-allylmercaptocysteine, and Tryptophan are selected based on the highest docking score than other TCM compounds. The molecular dynamics are helpful in the analysis and detection of protein-ligand interactions. Based on the docking poses, hydrophobic interactions, and hydrogen bond variations, this research surmises are the main regions of important amino acids in Ras. In addition to the detection of TCM compound efficacy, we suggest Saussureamine C is better than the others for protein-ligand interaction.

Protein Ligand Interaction

Macromolecular X-ray crystallography is one of the main experimental techniques to visualize protein–ligand interactions. The high complexity of the ligand universe, however, has delayed the development of efficient methods for the automated identification, fitting and validation of ligands in their electron-density clusters. The identification and fitting are primarily based on the density itself and do not take into account the protein environment, which is a step that is only taken during the validation of the proposed binding mode. Here, a new approach, based on the estimation of the major energetic terms of protein–ligand interaction, is introduced for the automated identification of crystallographic ligands in the indicated binding site withARP/wARP. The applicability of the method to the validation of protein–ligand models from the Protein Data Bank is demonstrated by the detection of models that are `questionable' and the pinpointing of unfavourable interatomic contacts.

In this paper we have studied peculiarities of protein-ligand interaction under different conditions. We have shown that guanidine hydrochloride (GdnHCI) unfolding-refolding of GGBP in the presence of glucose (Glc) is reversible, but the equilibrium curves of complex refolding-unfolding have been attained only after 10-day incubation of GGBP/Glc in the presence of GdnHCl. This effect has not been revealed at heat-induced GGBP/Glc denaturation. Slow equilibration between the native protein in GGBP/Glc complex and the unfolded state of protein in the GdnHCl presence is connected with increased viscosity of solution at moderate and high GdnHCl concentrations which interferes with diffusion of glucose molecules. Thus, the limiting step of the unfolding-refolding process of the complex GGBP/Glc is the disruption/tuning of the configuration fit between the protein in the native state and the ligand.

AbstractThe assessment of protein–ligand interactions is critical at early stage of drug discovery. Computational approaches for efficiently predicting such interactions facilitate drug development. Recently, methods based on deep learning, including structure- and sequence-based models, have achieved impressive performance on several different datasets. However, their application still suffers from a generalizability issue because of insufficient data, especially for structure based models, as well as a heterogeneity problem because of different label measurements and varying proteins across datasets. Here, we present an interpretable multi-task model to evaluate protein–ligand interaction (Multi-PLI). The model can run classification (binding or not) and regression (binding affinity) tasks concurrently by unifying different datasets. The model outperforms traditional docking and machine learning on both binary classification and regression tasks and achieves competitive results compared with some structure-based deep learning methods, even with the same training set size. Furthermore, combined with the proposed occlusion algorithm, the model can predict the important amino acids of proteins that are crucial for binding, thus providing a biological interpretation.

AbstractComputational prediction of Protein-Ligand Interaction (PLI) is an important step in the modern drug discovery pipeline as it mitigates the cost, time, and resources required to screen novel therapeutics. Deep Neural Networks (DNN) have recently shown excellent performance in PLI prediction. However, the performance is highly dependent on protein and ligand features utilized for the DNN model. Moreover, in current models, the deciphering of how protein features determine the underlying principles that govern PLI is not trivial. In this work, we developed a DNN framework named SSnet that utilizes secondary structure information of proteins extracted as the curvature and torsion of the protein backbone to predict PLI. We demonstrate the performance of SSnet by comparing against a variety of currently popular machine and non-machine learning models using various metrics. We visualize the intermediate layers of SSnet to show a potential latent space for proteins, in particular to extract structural elements in a protein that the model finds influential for ligand binding, which is one of the key features of SSnet. We observed in our study that SSnet learns information about locations in a protein where a ligand can bind including binding sites, allosteric sites and cryptic sites, regardless of the conformation used. We further observed that SSnet is not biased to any specific molecular interaction and extracts the protein fold information critical for PLI prediction. Our work forms an important gateway to the general exploration of secondary structure based deep learning, which is not just confined to protein-ligand interactions, and as such will have a large impact on protein research.

Recently, an important topic of breast cancer had been published in 2013. In this report, estrogen receptor (ESR1) had defined the relation of hormone-cause breast cancer. The screening of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) database has found the molecular compounds by simulating molecular docking and molecular dynamics to regulate ESR1. S-Allylmercaptocysteine and 5-hydroxy-L-tryptophan are selected according to the highest docking score than that of other TCM compounds and Raloxifene (control). The simulation from molecular dynamics is helpful in analyzing and detecting the protein-ligand interactions. After a comparing the control and the Apo form, then based on the docking poses, hydrophobic interactions, hydrogen bond and structure variations, this research postulates that S-allylmercaptocysteine may be more appropriate than other compounds for protein-ligand interaction.

The affinity of different drug-like ligands to multiple protein targets reflects general chemical–biological interactions. Computational methods estimating such interactions analyze the available information about the structure of the targets, ligands, or both. Prediction of protein–ligand interactions based on pairwise sequence alignment provides reasonable accuracy if the ligands’ specificity well coincides with the phylogenic taxonomy of the proteins. Methods using multiple alignment require an accurate match of functionally significant residues. Such conditions may not be met in the case of diverged protein families. To overcome these limitations, we propose an approach based on the analysis of local sequence similarity within the set of analyzed proteins. The positional scores, calculated by sequence fragment comparisons, are used as input data for the Bayesian classifier. Our approach provides a prediction accuracy comparable or exceeding those of other methods. It was demonstrated on the popular Gold Standard test sets, presenting different sequence heterogeneity and varying from the group, including different protein families to the more specific groups. A reasonable prediction accuracy was also found for protein kinases, displaying weak relationships between sequence phylogeny and inhibitor specificity. Thus, our method can be applied to the broad area of protein–ligand interactions.
