摘要:
Computer-based methods for modeling complex formation between a query ligand and a target macromolecule are described herein. The methods can include, for example, providing a structural model of a query ligand and a structural model of a target macromolecule; identifying a substructure of the query ligand; identifying comparison ligands in a set of 3-D structural models that each share an identical substructure with the query ligand, wherein each 3-D structural model comprises a comparison ligand and a comparison macromolecule, and wherein the comparison macromolecule has structural features homologous to the target macromolecule; mapping spatial relationships between the substructure atoms of the query ligand and the comparison ligand such that corresponding atoms are identified; assigning atomic coordinates to the corresponding atoms of the query ligand; and generating one or more output models, each model comprising a 3-D structural model of the query ligand substructure and the target macromolecule. Related articles and apparatuses are also described.
摘要:
The present invention relates to the X-ray analysis of crystalline molecules or molecular complexes of human Pim-1. The present invention also relates to Pim-1-like binding pockets. The present invention provides a computer comprising a data storage medium encoded with the structure coordinates of such binding pockets. This invention also relates to methods of using the structure coordinates to solve the structure of homologous proteins or protein complexes. In addition, this invention relates to methods of using the structure coordinates to screen for and design compounds, including inhibitory compounds, that bind to Pim-1 protein, Pim-1 protein complexes, or homologues thereof. The invention also relates to crystallizable compositions and crystals comprising Pim-1 protein, Pim-1 protein complexes with adenosine, staurosporine or 2-(4-morpholinyl)-8-phenyl-4H-1-benzopyran-4-one and methods to produce these crystals.
