Virtual screening of natural inhibitors targeting ornithine decarboxylase with pharmacophore scaffolding of DFMO and validation by molecular dynamics simulation studies.

Abstract:

:Ornithine decarboxylase (ODC) is an enzyme that initiates polyamine synthesis in human. Polyamines play key roles in cell-cell adhesion, cell motility and cell cycle regulation. Higher synthesis of polyamines also occurs in rapidly proliferating cancer cells are mediated by ODC. As per earlier studies, di-flouro-methyl-orninthine (DFMO) is a proven efficient inhibitor ODC targeting the catalytic activity, however, its usage is limited due to side effects. Targeting ODC is considered as a potential therapeutic modality in the treatment of cancer. In this study, it is attempted to use DFMO scaffold to build a ligand-based pharmocophore query using MOE to screen similar active compounds from Universal Natural Products Database with better ADMET properties. The identified compounds were virtually screened against the active cavity of ODC using Glide. Further, potential natural hits targeting ODC were shortlisted based on Molecular Mechanics/Generalized-Born/Surface Area (MM-GBSA) score. Finally, molecular dynamics simulations were performed for the natural molecule hit and DFMO in complex with ODC using Desmond. Among the hits shortlisted, 2-amino-5, 9, 13, 17-tetramethyloctadeca-8, 16-diene-1, 3, 14-triol (UNPD208110) was found to be highly potential, as it showed a higher binding affinity in terms of interactions with key active cavity residues, and also showed better ADMET property, HUMO-LUMO gap energy and more stable complex formation with ODC compared to DFMO. Hence, the proposed molecule (UNPD208110) shall be favourably considered as a potential natural inhibitor targeting ODC-mediated disease conditions.
