Abstract:
:Several drugs elicit their therapeutic efficacy by modulating multiple cellular targets and possess varied polypharmacological actions. The identification of the molecular targets of a potent bioactive molecule is essential in determining its overall polypharmacological profile. Experimental procedures are expensive and time-consuming. Therefore, computational approaches are actively implemented in rational drug discovery. Here, we demonstrate a computational pipeline, based on reverse virtual screening technique using several consensus scoring strategies, and perform structure-based kinase profiling of 12 FDA-approved drugs. This target prediction showed an overall good performance, with an average AU-ROC greater than 0.85 for most drugs, and identified the true targets even at the top 2% cutoff. In contrast, 10 non-kinase binder drugs exhibited lower binding efficiency and appeared in the bottom of ranking list. Subsequently, we validated this pipeline on a potent therapeutic molecule, mahanine, whose polypharmacological profile related to targeting kinases is unknown. Our target-prediction method identified different kinases. Furthermore, we have experimentally validated that mahanine is able to modulate multiple kinases that are involved in cross-talk with different signaling molecules, which thereby exhibits its polypharmacological action. More importantly, in vitro kinase assay exhibited the inhibitory effect of mahanine on two such predicted kinases' (mTOR and VEGFR2) activity, with IC50 values being ∼12 and ∼22 μM, respectively. Next, we generated a comprehensive drug-protein interaction fingerprint that explained the basis of their target selectivity. We observed that it is controlled by variations in kinase conformations followed by significant differences in crucial hydrogen-bond and van der Waals interactions. Such structure-based kinase profiling could provide useful information in revealing the unknown targets of therapeutic molecules from their polypharmacological behavior and would assist in drug discovery.
