第一章
Drug Design - IUPAC
• Drug design includes not only ligand design, but also pharmacokinetics and toxicity, which are mostly beyond the possibilities of structure- and/or computer-aided design. Nevertheless, appropriate chemometric tools, including experimental design and multivariate statistics, can be of value in the planning and evaluation of pharmacokinetic experiments and results, and toxicological studies.
• Drug design is most often used instead of the correct term 'Ligand Design'.
药物设计 - IUPAC
• 药物设计不仅包括配体设计,还涉及药代动力学和毒性,这些大多超出了结构和/或计算机辅助设计的范围。然而,适当的化学计量学工具,包括实验设计和多变量统计学,在药代动力学实验和结果的规划与评估中可以发挥重要作用,并在毒理学研究中也具有价值。
• 药物设计通常作为'配体设计'的替代术语使用。
New Molecular Entity (NME)
A new molecular entity (NME) is a new drug or biological product that contains a new active moiety or is structurally different from previously approved products.
新化学实体
新化学实体(NME)是指一种新药或生物制品,包含一种新的活性部分,或其结构与先前批准的产品有所不同。

Target-based Drug Discovery
Target-based drug discovery can exploit numerous approaches (including crystallography, computational modeling, genomics, biochemistry, and binding kinetics) to uncover exactly how a drug interacts with the target of interest, enabling:
- Development of the structure-activity relationship (SAR) (the relationship between the structure and biological activity of a molecule);
- Development of biomarkers;
- Discovery of future therapeutics that act at the specific target of interest.
靶向药物发现
靶向药物发现可以利用多种方法(包括晶体学、计算建模、基因组学、生物化学和结合动力学)来揭示药物与目标的相互作用,进而实现:

Drug Target
• A target is usually a single gene, gene product, or molecular mechanism that has been identified on the basis of genetic analysis or biological observations. They will be divided into two classes: genetic or mechanistic targets.
• Genetic targets represent genes or gene products that, in specific diseases, have been found to carry mutations (e.g., the familial forms of Alzheimer's Disease) or that confer a higher disease risk (e.g., predisposing the individual to develop schizophrenia or depression).
• Mechanistic targets represent receptors, genes, enzymes, and so on that usually are not genetically different from the normal population. These latter targets originate from biological processes.药物靶点
• 靶点通常是根据基因分析或生物学观察确定的单一基因、基因产物或分子机制。靶点可分为两类:遗传靶点或机制靶点。
• 遗传靶点代表那些在特定疾病中被发现携带突变的基因或基因产物(如家族性阿尔茨海默病),或代表那些赋予较高疾病风险的基因(如使个体易患精神分裂症或抑郁症)。
• 机制靶点代表通常与正常人群没有基因差异的受体、基因、酶等。这些靶点源自生物学过程。Properties of an Ideal Drug TargetGashaw, I., Ellinghaus, P., Sommer, A., & Asadullah, K. (2012). What makes a good drug target?. Drug Discovery Today, 17, S24-S30. doi: 10.1016/j.drudis.2011.12.008

第六章
Combinatorial chemistry is a laboratory technique in which millions of molecular constructions can be synthesized and tested for biological activity.
组合化学 是一种实验室技术,能够合成并测试数百万种分子结构的生物活性。
High content screening (HCS) combines the efficiency of high-throughput techniques with the ability of cellular imaging to collect quantitative data from complex biological systems.
高内容筛选(HCS) 将高通量技术的效率与细胞成像的能力相结合,从复杂的生物系统中收集定量数据。
As an alternative or complementary approach to high-throughput screening assays, virtual screening is an efficient method to identify drug candidates in silico from large chemical compound databases. Its usefulness has been verified by current applications that successfully retrieved hit and lead identifications against various disease targets.

The last step in the biosynthesis of androgens (for example, testosterone) involves two key reactions that occur sequentially and are both catalyzed by a single enzyme, the cytochrome P450 monooxygenase 17α hydroxylase/17,20-lyase (CYP17 or 17-lyase). Ketoconazole, an antifungal agent that is also a modest CYP17 inhibitor, has been used clinically for the treatment of PC. However, ketoconazole has now been withdrawn from use because of liver toxicity and other side effects due mainly to its inhibition of other CYP enzymes.
雄激素(例如睾酮)生物合成的最后一步涉及两个关键反应,这些反应依次发生,并且都由同一酶——细胞色素P450单加氧酶17α羟化酶/17,20-裂解酶(CYP17或17-裂解酶)催化。克霉唑是一种抗真菌剂,也是CYP17的适度抑制剂,曾用于临床治疗PC。然而,克霉唑现已停止使用,因为其对肝脏的毒性和其他副作用,主要是由于它抑制了其他CYP酶。

Forms a covalent interaction with the conserved cysteine residue (Cys 773 in EGFR and Cys-805 in HER2).氯吡格雷(Clopidogrel):
与P2Y嘌呤受体12形成共价结合。奈拉替布(Neratinib):
与保守的半胱氨酸残基(EGFR中的Cys 773和HER2中的Cys-805)形成共价相互作用。Prevalence of Covalent Drugs
- 19/74Of 74 enzymes that are inhibited by marketed drugs, 19 are irreversibly inhibited via covalent modification.
- 30%
~30% of marketed drugs act via a covalent mechanism of action, although the majority of those were not originally designed as covalent drugs.共价药物的流行程度
- 19/74在74种被市场药物抑制的酶中,有19种通过共价修饰被不可逆地抑制。
- 30%
大约30%的市场药物通过共价作用机制发挥作用,尽管其中大多数药物最初并非作为共价药物设计。Advantages of Covalent Drugs
- Improved Biochemical EfficiencyAs competition with endogenous substrates is reduced, covalent drugs often exhibit enhanced biochemical efficiency.
- Lower, Less Frequent DosingThis leads to a lower overall patient burden, as drugs can be dosed less frequently.
- Dissociation of Pharmacokinetics from Pharmacodynamics (PD)Since pharmacodynamics (PD) is now dependent on protein re-synthesis, this allows for quicker clearance of compounds, making them more acceptable and resulting in lower systemic drug exposure.
- Potential Prevention of Drug Resistance
Continuous target suppression by covalent binding can help prevent the emergence of drug resistance.共价药物的优点
- 提高生化效率由于减少了与内源性底物的竞争,共价药物通常表现出更高的生化效率。
- 较低且不频繁的给药这导致整体患者负担减少,因为药物可以较少频繁地给药。
- 药代动力学与药效学(PD)的分离由于药效学现在依赖于蛋白质的再合成,这使得药物能迅速清除,从而使药物更易接受,并导致更低的全身药物暴露。
- 潜在的药物耐药性预防
由于共价结合持续抑制靶标,可能有助于防止药物耐药性的产生。Disadvantages of (or Concerns About) Covalent Drugs
Balance Between Reactivity and SpecificityIt is difficult to strike the right balance between reactivity and specificity. There is a high risk if a covalent inhibitor lacks specificity, leading to off-target effects.
- Example: Hepatotoxicity of acetaminophen, where the active metabolite covalently binds to microsomal proteins.
- Potential ImmunogenicityProtein-inhibitor adducts may trigger an immune response, leading to allergic reactions or drug hypersensitivity.
- Not Optimal for Certain Targets
Covalent drugs are not ideal for targets where the mechanism of action requires short residence time, transient inhibition, or partial inhibition.共价药物的缺点(或关注点)
反应性与特异性之间的平衡问题很难在反应性和特异性之间找到合适的平衡。如果共价抑制剂缺乏特异性,可能会导致高风险的非特异性作用。
- 例子: 对乙酰氨基酚的肝毒性,活性代谢物与微粒体蛋白共价结合。
- 潜在的免疫原性蛋白质-抑制剂加合物可能引发免疫反应,导致过敏反应或药物超敏反应。
- 不适用于某些靶点
共价药物对于那些机制需要短时间作用、暂时性抑制或部分抑制的靶点并不理想。Targeted Covalent Inhibitors (TCIs)
- A targeted covalent inhibitor (TCI) is designed such that the initial, reversible association between the ligand and the target is followed by the formation of a covalent bond between an electrophile on the ligand (warhead) and a nucleophilic center in the protein.
- While this approach offers a variety of potential benefits, including high potency and extended duration of action, concerns over the possible toxicological consequences of protein haptenization have hindered the development of the TCI concept.
- Recently, strategies to mitigate the risk of serious adverse reactions to this new class of agents have emerged, stimulating interest in the field and leading to the authorization of the first cadre of TCIs to be marketed.
- The covalent inhibitor approach is rapidly gaining acceptance as a valuable tool in drug discovery and is poised to make a significant impact on the design of enzyme inhibitors and receptor modulators.
靶向共价抑制剂(TCIs)
- 靶向共价抑制剂(TCI)的设计使得配体与靶标之间最初的可逆结合后,会形成配体上的亲电基团(战斗头)与蛋白质中的亲核中心之间的共价键。
- 尽管这种方法提供了多种潜在的益处,包括高效能和延长作用时间,但关于蛋白质载体化可能带来的毒理学后果的担忧,限制了TCI概念的发展。
- 最近,为减轻对这一新类药物的严重不良反应的风险,已出现了新的策略,从而激发了该领域的兴趣,并促使第一批TCI药物的上市授权。
- 共价抑制剂方法正在迅速获得认可,成为药物发现中的重要工具,并有望对酶抑制剂和受体调节剂的设计产生重大影响。
Theoretical benefits of TCIs
• (i) an extended duration of therapeutic action that is determined by the target protein turnover rate and not necessarily by drug half-life,
• (ii) a lower therapeutic dose owing to greater pharmacological potency,
• (iii) lower risk of off-target binding and associated adverse events,
• (iv) reduced drug-drug interaction (DDI) liability due to high selectivity and low dose.TCIs的理论益处
• (i) 由靶标蛋白的更替速率决定的较长疗效持续时间,而不一定由药物半衰期决定,
• (ii) 由于更高的药理效能,较低的治疗剂量,
• (iii) 较低的脱靶结合及相关不良事件的风险,
• (iv) 由于高选择性和低剂量,减少药物间相互作用(DDI)的风险。Requirement for developing covalent drugs

Molecular Glues (分子胶)
• Molecular glues are a class of small molecule compounds that can induce or stabilize the interaction between proteins.
• If one of the proteins is an ubiquitin ligase, molecular glue can cause another protein to undergo ubiquitin modification and degradation through the proteasome pathway, which is similar to PROTAC.
• However, these molecules are classified as ligands for E3 ligase as functional molecules in subsequent classification.
• Older drugs, thalidomide, lenalidomide, and pomalidomide, together with CC-90009 and CC-92480, all belong to this category.分子胶
• 分子胶是一类能够诱导或稳定蛋白质之间相互作用的小分子化合物。
• 如果其中一个蛋白质是泛素连接酶,分子胶可以导致另一个蛋白质通过蛋白酶体通路进行泛素修饰和降解,这与PROTAC类似。
• 然而,这些分子在后续分类中被归类为E3连接酶的配体作为功能分子。
• 老药,如沙利度胺、来那度胺和泊马度胺,以及CC-90009和CC-92480,都属于这一类别。PROTAC vs Classic Protein Modulator

- The world faces an antibiotics pipeline and access crisis. There is an inadequate research and development pipeline in the face of rising levels of resistance, and an urgent need for additional measures to ensure equitable access to new and existing vaccines, diagnostics, and medicines.
- In addition to death and disability, AMR has significant economic costs. The World Bank estimates that AMR could result in US$ 1 trillion additional healthcare costs by 2050, and US$ 1 trillion to US$ 3.4 trillion gross domestic product (GDP) losses per year by 2030.
- Priorities to address AMR in human health include preventing all infections, which may result in inappropriate use of antimicrobials; ensuring universal access to quality diagnosis and appropriate treatment of infections; and strategic information and innovation, for example, surveillance of AMR and antimicrobial consumption/use.
抗微生物耐药性
• 关键事实
- 全球面临抗生素研发和可及性危机。在抗药性水平上升的情况下,研发管道不足,迫切需要采取额外措施确保新老疫苗、诊断工具和药物的公平获取。
- 除了死亡和残疾,AMR还带来巨大的经济成本。世界银行估计,到2050年,AMR可能导致1万亿美元的额外医疗成本,到2030年,每年将导致1万亿美元至3.4万亿美元的国内生产总值(GDP)损失。
- 解决AMR在人类健康中的优先事项包括预防所有可能导致不当使用抗微生物药物的感染;确保普遍获得优质诊断和适当治疗感染;以及战略性的信息和创新,例如AMR和抗微生物药物使用/消费的监测。
The global set of relationships between protein targets of all drugs and all disease-gene products in the human protein–protein interaction or 'interactome' network remains uncharacterized.
We built a bipartite graph composed of US Food and Drug Administration–approved drugs and proteins linked by drug–target binary associations. The resulting network connects most drugs into a highly interlinked giant component, with strong local clustering of drugs of similar types according to Anatomical Therapeutic Chemical classification. Topological analyses of this network quantitatively showed an overabundance of 'follow-on' drugs, that is, drugs that target already targeted proteins. By including drugs currently under investigation, we identified a trend toward more functionally diverse targets improving polypharmacology.全球所有药物的蛋白靶标与人类蛋白质-蛋白质相互作用或“相互组学”网络中的所有疾病基因产物之间的关系仍未被充分表征。
我们构建了一个二分图,包含了美国食品药品监督管理局(FDA)批准的药物和通过药物-靶标二元关联连接的蛋白质。所得网络将大多数药物连接成一个高度相互连接的巨大组件,且根据解剖治疗化学分类,相似类型的药物有着强烈的局部聚类。该网络的拓扑分析定量地显示出“跟进”药物的过度集中,即靶向已经被靶向的蛋白质的药物。通过包括目前正在研究的药物,我们发现了一个趋势,即越来越多功能多样的靶标改善了多药理学。The common analogy of drug action is that of a lock and key, with a drug acting as a selective 'key' that fits into the 'lock' of a specific drug target.
Over the past two decades, the concept of designing exquisitely selective ligands to avoid unwanted side effects has become the predominant paradigm in drug discovery. However, a growing body of post-genomic biology is revealing a far more complex picture of drug action. An elegant new study by Yıldırım et al. in this issue illustrates not only that there are many keys for each lock but also that it is far more common than expected for a single key to fit multiple locks.药物作用的常见类比是锁与钥匙的关系,其中药物作为一个选择性的“钥匙”,适配特定药物靶标的“锁”。
在过去的二十年中,设计极为选择性的配体以避免不良副作用的概念已经成为药物发现中的主导范式。然而,越来越多的后基因组学生物学研究揭示了药物作用的远复杂于以往的图景。Yıldırım等人在本期中的一项精美新研究表明,不仅每个“锁”有许多“钥匙”,而且单一的“钥匙”适配多个“锁”的现象比预期的更为常见。The dominant paradigm in drug discovery is the concept of designing maximally selective ligands to act on individual drug targets.
However, many effective drugs act via modulation of multiple proteins rather than single targets. Advances in systems biology are revealing a phenotypic robustness and a network structure that strongly suggests that exquisitely selective compounds, compared with multitarget drugs, may exhibit lower than desired clinical efficacy.
Integrating network biology and polypharmacology holds the promise of expanding the current opportunity space for druggable targets. However, the rational design of polypharmacology faces considerable challenges in the need for new methods to validate target combinations and optimize multiple structure-activity relationships while maintaining drug-like properties.
Advances in these areas are creating the foundation of the next paradigm in drug discovery: network pharmacology.药物发现中的主导范式是设计具有最大选择性的配体作用于单一药物靶标的概念。
然而,许多有效的药物是通过调节多个蛋白质而非单一靶标发挥作用的。系统生物学的进展揭示了表型的稳健性和网络结构,强烈暗示,与多靶标药物相比,极具选择性的化合物可能表现出低于预期的临床疗效。
整合网络生物学和多药理学有望扩展当前可药靶标的机会空间。然而,多药理学的合理设计面临着巨大的挑战,亟需新的方法来验证靶标组合并优化多个结构-活性关系,同时保持药物样性质。
这些领域的进展正在为药物发现的下一个范式——网络药理学奠定基础。

一、分子对接的基本理论
• Molecular Docking is a method which anticipates the favored orientation of ligand against receptor (Protein) to make a stable complex.
• The favored orientation can be used to predict the strength of connection or binding affinity between ligand and protein by utilizing scoring functions.
• Docking is often applied to predict the binding orientation of drug candidates against protein targets to forecast the affinity and activity of the drug.
• The main aim of molecular docking is to computationally simulate the molecular recognition process and achieve an optimized conformation so that the free energy of the overall system is minimized.一、分子对接的基本理论
• 分子对接是一种预测配体与受体(蛋白质)之间偏好取向的方法,以形成稳定的复合物。
• 偏好取向可用于通过利用打分函数预测配体与蛋白质之间的连接强度或结合亲和力。
• 对接常用于预测药物候选分子与蛋白质靶标的结合取向,以预测药物的亲和力和活性。
• 分子对接的主要目标是计算模拟分子识别过程,并获得优化的构象,从而使整个系统的自由能最小化。分子对接的分类
• (1) Lock and Key/Rigid Docking: Both the receptor and ligand are maintained fixed, and docking is executed.
• (2) Induced fit/Flexible Docking: In induced fit docking, both the ligand and the receptor are conformationally flexible. Every rotation, the surface cell occupancy and energy are calculated; later, the most optimum pose is selected.分子对接的分类
• (1) 锁钥模型/刚性对接:受体和配体都保持固定,然后执行对接。
• (2) 诱导契合/柔性对接:在诱导契合对接中,配体和受体都是构象灵活的。每次旋转时,计算表面细胞占据率和能量;然后选择最优构象。分子对接的基本步骤
Step I – Preparation of Protein:
The three-dimensional structure of the protein should be retrieved from the Protein Data Bank (PDB). Afterward, the retrieved structure should be pre-processed. This includes removing water molecules from the cavity, stabilizing the charges, filling in the missing residues, generating the side chains, etc., according to the available parameters.Step II – Active Site Prediction:
After the preparation of the protein, the active site of the protein should be predicted. The receptor might possess many active sites, but only the one of interest should be selected. Typically, water molecules and hetero atoms, if present, are removed.Step III – Preparation of Ligand:
Ligands can be retrieved from several databases such as ZINC, PubChem, or can be sketched using ChemSketch tool. When selecting the ligand, Lipinski's Rule of 5 can be applied.Step IV – Docking:
The ligand is docked against the protein, and the interactions are analyzed. The scoring function gives a score based on the best-docked ligand complex, which is then selected.分子对接的基本步骤
步骤 I – 蛋白质准备:
应从蛋白质数据银行(PDB)中检索蛋白质的三维结构;之后,检索到的结构需要预处理。这包括去除腔内的水分子、稳定电荷、填补缺失的残基、生成侧链等,具体操作根据可用的参数进行。步骤 II – 活性位点预测:
蛋白质准备好后,应预测蛋白质的活性位点。受体可能具有多个活性位点,但只应选择一个关注的位点。通常,水分子和异源原子(如果存在)会被去除。步骤 III – 配体准备:
配体可以从多个数据库(如ZINC、PubChem)中检索,或者使用ChemSketch工具进行绘制。在选择配体时,可以应用Lipinski的五条法则。步骤 IV – 对接:
配体与蛋白质进行对接,并分析相互作用。打分函数根据最佳对接配体复合物给出评分,最终选择最佳构象。Offline Molecular Docking (AutoDock, Discovery Studio)
What is AutoDock?
AutoDock is a suite of automated docking tools designed to predict how small molecules, such as substrates or drug candidates, bind to a receptor with a known 3D structure.The current distributions of AutoDock consist of two generations of software:
- AutoDock 4
- AutoDock Vina
AutoDock 4 consists of two main programs:
- AutoDock: Performs the docking of the ligand to a set of grids that describe the target protein.
- AutoGrid: Pre-calculates these grids.
AutoDock Vina does not require the user to choose atom types and pre-calculate grid maps for them. Instead, it calculates the grids internally for the necessary atom types, and it does this virtually instantaneously.
Additionally, AutoDockTools (ADT) is a graphical user interface developed to help set up which bonds will be treated as rotatable in the ligand and to analyze the docking results.
离线分子对接(Autodock,Discovery Studio)
什么是AutoDock?
AutoDock是一套自动化对接工具,旨在预测小分子(如底物或药物候选分子)如何与已知三维结构的受体结合。当前的AutoDock分发版本包括两个软件版本:
- AutoDock 4
- AutoDock Vina
AutoDock 4实际上由两个主要程序组成:
- AutoDock:将配体与描述目标蛋白的网格进行对接。
- AutoGrid:预先计算这些网格。
AutoDock Vina不需要选择原子类型并预先计算它们的网格图。相反,它内部计算所需原子类型的网格,并且几乎瞬间完成这一过程。
此外,还开发了一个名为AutoDockTools(简称ADT)的图形用户界面,除了其他功能外,它有助于设置哪些键将在配体中被视为可旋转的,并用于分析对接结果。

Abstract:
M6A (N6-methyladenosine) plays a significant role in regulating RNA processing, splicing, nucleation, translation, and stability. AlkB homologue 5 (ALKBH5) is an Fe(II)/2-oxoglutarate (2-OG)-dependent dioxygenase that demethylates mono- or dimethylated adenosines. ALKBH5 can be regarded as an oncogenic factor for various human cancers. However, the discovery of potent and selective ALKBH5 inhibitors remains a challenge. We identified DDO-2728 as a novel and selective inhibitor of ALKBH5 by structure-based virtual screening and optimization. DDO-2728 was not a 2-oxoglutarate analogue and could selectively inhibit the demethylase activity of ALKBH5 over FTO (fat mass and obesity-associated protein, also known as ALKBH9). DDO-2728 increased the abundance of m6A modifications in AML cells, reduced the mRNA stability of TACC3, and inhibited cell cycle progression. Furthermore, DDO-2728 significantly suppressed tumor growth in the MV4−11 xenograft mouse model and showed a favorable safety profile. Collectively, our results highlight the development of a selective probe for ALKBH5 that will pave the way for the further study of ALKBH5 targeting therapies.摘要: M6A(N6-甲基腺苷)在调节RNA加工、剪接、核聚合、翻译和稳定性方面起着重要作用。AlkB同源物5(ALKBH5)是一种Fe(II)/2-酮戊二酸(2-OG)依赖的二氧化物酶,能够去甲基化单甲基或双甲基腺苷。ALKBH5可以被视为多种人类癌症的致癌因子。然而,发现强效且具有选择性的ALKBH5抑制剂仍然是一个挑战。我们通过基于结构的虚拟筛选和优化,鉴定出DDO-2728作为ALKBH5的新型选择性抑制剂。DDO-2728并不是2-酮戊二酸的类似物,且能够选择性地抑制ALKBH5的去甲基化活性,而对FTO(脂肪质量和肥胖相关蛋白,也称为ALKBH9)几乎没有抑制作用。DDO-2728增加了AML细胞中m6A修饰的丰度,降低了TACC3的mRNA稳定性,并抑制了细胞周期进程。此外,DDO-2728显著抑制了MV4−11异种移植小鼠模型中的肿瘤生长,并显示出良好的安全性。总的来说,我们的结果突出了ALKBH5选择性探针的开发,这将为进一步研究ALKBH5靶向治疗铺平道路。
