Abstract:
:Factor Xa inhibitors are innovative anticoagulant agents that provide a better safety/efficacy profile compared to other anticoagulative drugs. A chemical feature-based modeling approach was applied to identify crucial pharmacophore patterns from 3D crystal structures of inhibitors bound to human factor Xa (Pdb entries 1fjs, 1kns, 1eqz) using the software LIGANDSCOUT and CATALYST. The complex structures were selected regarding the criteria of high inhibitory potency (i.e. all ligands show K(i) values against factor Xa in the subnanomolar range) and good resolution (i.e. at least 2.2 A) in order to generate selective and high quality pharmacophore models. The resulting chemical-feature based hypotheses were used for virtual screening of commercial molecular databases such as the WDI database. Furthermore, a ligand-based molecular modeling approach was performed to obtain common-feature hypotheses that represent the relevant chemical interactions between 10 bioactive factor Xa inhibitors and the protein, respectively. In a next step a virtual combinatorial library was designed in order to generate new compounds with similar chemical and spatial properties as known inhibitors. The software tool ILIB DIVERSE was used for this procedure in order to provide new scaffolds of this group of anticoagulants. Finally we present the combination of these two techniques, hence virtual screening was performed with selective pharmacophore models in a focused virtual combinatorial database. De novo derived molecular scaffolds that were able to adequately satisfy the pharmacophore criteria are revealed and are promising templates for candidates for further development.
