Opis:
Conformational analysis of two tachykinin family peptides: Scyliorhinin I (ScyI) and Scyliorhinin II (ScyII) was carried out by 1D- and 2D-NMR (DQF-COSY, TOCSY, HMQC, HMBC, NOESY and ROESY) and molecular dynamics calculation methods in water and DMSO. Scyliorhinin I is an equipotent agonist of NK-1 and NK-2 tachykinin receptors and Scyliorhinin II is a selective agonist of the NK-3 tachykinin receptor. In DMSO, two groups of conformations (major and minor) were obtained for both peptides based on the experimental data. The conformations proposed for ScyI represent a folded structure, which show certain similarities to the structures reported for other NK-1 and NK-2 tachykinin agonists. In water ScyII displays a flexible, extended structure, whereas in DMSO the structure is more compact and in the fragment from the centre to the C-terminus several beta -turns may be present.

Opis:
A tentative procedure applied to the search for a new antagonist of neurokinin A (NKA) is presented. In parallel a tentative 3-D model of the NK2 receptor was created, using bacteriorhodopsin (BRD) as a template. The residue substitutions were performed in BRD to obtain the sequence for NK2R_H and the seven a-helical segments were optimized forcing the a-helical backbone to match the corresponding aligned parts of BRD, while the arrangements of the side chains were model built based on available site-directed mutagenesis studies. Constrained MM and molecular dynamics simulations were carried out H-bonding a low energy conformer of the known drugs to residues in the receptor site, allowing both the receptor site and drugs to relax. The Connolly surface for each ligand allowed to determine an "average" binding site in which all the low energy conformers of known and prospective drugs were docked and classified according to a statistical index. The whole procedure was repeated exploiting the lately published structure of an actual G protein coupled receptor as a better template, thus producing a cavity in the binding site to directly dock the drugs. Corollary validations of the force fields used are also mentioned. In addition intra- and intermolecular interactions suitable to produce more active drugs were evaluated.

Opis:
In this paper we present our approaches and results concerning application of molecular modelling techniques in the design of new chemotherapeutic agents for the control of eukariotic systems, comprising compounds for the treatment of systemic fungal infections and tumor deseases. In the case of anti-tumor agents we focused our attention on molecular properties of natural and synthetic anthraquinones. In the area of antifungal compounds we adopted two approaches. In one of them we examine molecular nature of undesirable properties of polyene macrolide antifungal antibiotic - amphotericin B using molecular modelling techniques. Another approach was aimed at the development of selective inactivator of glucosamine synthase, a novel target for antifungal compounds. In this problem we have used computational chemistry methods to identify structural features responsible for the selective inactivation of the target enzyme.

Opis:
G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are the most frequent targets for many drugs. They form the largest superfamily of integral membrane proteins, of which more than 1000 members have the following common features: (i) All GPCRs form 7 hydrophobic a-helices of length ~38A (25 amino acids, 7 turns) along a single chain. The consecutive helices alternatively cross the membrane, starting from the extracellular side, so that they form a heptahelical transmembrane domain interwoven with 6 loops, of which the even ones plus the N-terminus create the receptor's extracellular domain while the odd ones plus the C-terminus form its intracellular domain. (ii) All GPCRs are stimulated by diverse extracellular (primary) signals. (iii) Stimulated GPCRs convey the primary signals via their transmembrane and intracellular domains to the cytosolic peripheral heterotrimeric GTP-binding proteins (G proteins), mediating the signal's further transduction to various cellular second messenger systems. A current status of structural studies on GPCRs, consisting of low ~7.5A resolution experimental structures and supplementary molecular modeling, is outlined. Subsequently, some results of authors' own work on studying essential interactions of the V2 vasopressin renal receptor (V2R) with its agonist [Arg8]Vasopressin (AVP) and selected antagonists are presented, as well as their possible impact on the biological signal transduction is discussed. Finally, perspectives for future developments are sketched.

Opis:
Molecular dynamics trajectories (700 ps) of the solvated and neutralized 75-residue yeast tRNA Phe were generated using the AMBER 5.0 molecular dynamics software package. The cut-off scheme was used to treat electrostatic interactions; consequently, all long-range interactions beyond 12 angstroms were neglected. The equilibration procedure and conditions during simulations led to a dynamically stable model of the tRNA molecule. During the simulations all base-base interactions (which determine the secondary and the tertiary structure of the molecule) were well preserved. Consequently, the global shape of the molecule was preserved well and the RMS deviation calculated between the starting x-ray structure and the final structure after 700 ps of simulations was 3.25 angstroms. The biggest deviation is observed in the region of the anticodon hairpin loop; this high mobility is associated with the presence of a very unusual Y-base and a binding site of a magnesium ion in this region.

Opis:
The main structural element of biological membranes is a liquid-crystalline lipid bilayer. Other constituents, i.e. proteins, sterols and peptides, either intercalate into or loosely attach to the bilayer. We applied a molecular dynamics simulation method to study membrane systems at various levels of compositional complexity. The studies were started from simple lipid bilayers containing a single type phosphatidylcholine (PC) and water molecules (PC bilayers). As a next step, cholesterol (Chol) molecules were introduced to the PC bilayers (PC-Chol bilayers). These studies provided detailed information about the structure and dynamics of the membrane/water interface and the hydrocarbon chain region in bilayers built of various types of PCs and Chol. This enabled studies of membrane systems of higher complexity. They included the investigation of an integral membrane protein in its natural environment of a PC bilayer, and the antibacterial activity of magainin-2. The latter study required the construction of a model bacterial membrane which consisted of two types of phospholipids and counter ions. Whenever published experimental data were available, the results of the simulations were compared with them.

Opis:
Imidazoacridinones (IAs) are a new group of highly active antitumor compounds. The intercalation of the IA molecule into DNA is the preliminary step in the mode of action of these compounds. There are no experimental data about the structure of an intercalation complex formed by imidazoacridinones. Therefore the design of new potentially better compounds of this group should employ the molecular modelling techniques. The results of molecular dynamics simulations performed for four IA analogues are presented. Each of the compounds was studied in two systems: i) in water, and ii) in the intercalation complex with dodecamer duplex d(GCGCGCGCGCGC)2. Significant differences in the conformation of the side chain in the two environments were observed for all studied IAs. These changes were induced by electrostatic as well as van der Waals interactions between the intercalator and DNA. Moreover, the results showed that the geometry of the intercalation complex depends on: i) the chemical constitution of the side chain, and ii) the substituent in position 8 of the ring system.

Opis:
Pyrimidoacridinetriones (PATs) are a new group of highly active antitumor compounds. It seems reasonable to assume that, like for some other acridine derivatives, intercalation into DNA is a necessary, however not a sufficient condition for antitumor activity of these compounds. Rational design of new compounds of this chemotype requires knowledge about the structure of the intercalation complex, as well as about interactions responsible for its stability. Computer simulation techniques such as molecular dynamics (MD) may provide valuable information about these problems. The results of MD simulations performed for three rationally selected PATs are presented in this paper. The compounds differ in the number and position of side chains. Each of the compounds was simulated in two systems: i) in water, and ii) in the intercalation complex with the dodecamer duplex d(GCGCGCGCGCGC)2. The orientation of the side chain in relation to the ring system is determined by the position of its attachment. Orientation of the ring system inside the intercalation cavity depends on the number and position of side chain(s). The conformations of the side chain(s) of all PATs studied in the intercalation complex were found to be very similar to those observed in water.

Opis:
Physiological and pathological roles of cysteine proteases make them important targets for inhibitor development. Although highly potent inhibitors of this group of enzymes are known, their major drawback is a lack of sufficient specificity. Two cysteine protease covalent inhibitors, viz. (i) Z-RL-deoxo-V-peptide-epoxysuccinyl hybrid, and (ii) Z-RLVG-methyl-, have been developed and modeled in the catalytic pocket of papain, an archetypal thiol protease. A number of configurations have been generated and relaxed for each system using the AMBER force field. The catalytic pockets S3 and S4 appear rather elusive in view of the observed inhibitors' flexibility. This suggest rather limited chances for the development of selective structure-based inhibitors of thiol proteases, designed to exploit differences in the structure of catalytic pockets of various members of this family.

Molecular dynamics simulations were carried out on tyrosine and phenylalanine and their derivatives with various terminal groups to determine the populations of side-chain rotamers. The obtained populations were compared with those calculated from fluorescence-decay lifetime distributions and NMR studies. It was found that theoretically calculated populations do not match the experimental ones, which suggests that the static rotamer model is inadequate to explain the dynamics of tyrosine and phenylalanine side chain in fluorescence and NMR experiments.

We focus our attention on simulations, which use the "reactive" hard spheres technique. It is demonstrated that information on nonequilibrium rate constant in a system with a thermally activated reaction can be easily obtained from such simulations. We also present results for a wavefront propagation in a system with an autocatalitic reaction: A + B --> A + A.
