- 1. Important Points in Drug Design based on Bioinformatics Tools History of Drug/Vaccine development – Plants or Natural Product • Plant and Natural products were source for medical substance • Example: foxglove used to treat congestive heart failure • Foxglove contain digitalis and cardiotonic glycoside • Identification of active component – Accidental Observations • Penicillin is one good example • Alexander Fleming observed the effect of mold • Mold(Penicillium) produce substance penicillin • Discovery of penicillin lead to large scale screening • Soil micoorganism were grown and tested • Streptomycin, neomycin, gentamicin, tetracyclines etc. http://www.geocities.com/bioinformaticsweb/drugdiscovery.html
- 2. Important Points in Drug Design based on Bioinformatics Tools • Chemical Modification of Known Drugs – Drug improvement by chemical modification – Pencillin G -> Methicillin; morphine->nalorphine • Receptor Based drug design – Receptor is the target (usually a protein) – Drug molecule binds to cause biological effects – It is also called lock and key system – Structure determination of receptor is important • Ligand-based drug design – Search a lead ocompound or active ligand – Structure of ligand guide the drug design process
- 3. Important Points in Drug Design based on Bioinformatics Tools • Identify Target Disease – Identify and study the lead compounds – Marginally useful and may have severe side effects • Refinement of the chemical structures – Detect the Molecular Bases for Disease – Detection of drug binding site – Tailor drug to bind at that site – Protein modeling techniques – Traditional Method (brute force testing)

- 10. Important Points in Drug Design based on Bioinformatics Tools • Application of Genome – 3 billion bases pair – 30,000 unique genes – Any gene may be a potential drug target – ~500 unique target – Their may be 10 to 100 variants at each target gene – 1.4 million SNP – 10200 potential small molecules
- 11. Important Points in Drug Design based on Bioinformatics Tools • Detect the Molecular Bases for Disease – Detection of drug binding site – Tailor drug to bind at that site – Protein modeling techniques – Traditional Method (brute force testing) • Rational drug design techniques – Screen likely compounds built – Modeling large number of compounds (automated) – Application of Artificial intelligence – Limitation of known structures
- 12. Important Points in Drug Design based on Bioinformatics Tools • Refinement of compounds – Refine lead compounds using laboratory techniques – Greater drug activity and fewer side effects – Compute change required to design better drug • Quantitative Structure Activity Relationships (QSAR) – Compute functional group in compound – QSAR compute every possible number – Enormous curve fitting to identify drug activity – chemical modifications for synthesis and testing. • Solubility of Molecule • Drug Testing
- 13. Drug Discovery & Development Identify disease Isolate protein involved in disease (2-5 years) Find a drug effective against disease protein (2-5 years) Preclinical testing (1-3 years) Formulation Human clinical trials (2-10 years) Scale-up FDA approval (2-3 years)
- 14. Techology is impacting this process Identify disease Isolate protein Find drug Preclinical testing GENOMICS, PROTEOMICS & BIOPHARM. HIGH THROUGHPUT SCREENING MOLECULAR MODELING VIRTUAL SCREENING COMBINATORIAL CHEMISTRY IN VITRO & IN SILICO ADME MODELS Potentially producing many more targets and “personalized” targets Screening up to 100,000 compounds a day for activity against a target protein Using a computer to predict activity Rapidly producing vast numbers of compounds Computer graphics & models help improve activity Tissue and computer models begin to replace animal testing
- 15. 1. Gene Chips • “Gene chips” allow us to look for changes in protein expression for different people with a variety of conditions, and to see if the presence of drugs changes that expression • Makes possible the design of drugs to target different phenotypes compounds administered people / conditions e.g. obese, cancer, caucasian expression profile (screen for 35,000 genes)
- 16. Biopharmaceuticals • Drugs based on proteins, peptides or natural products instead of small molecules (chemistry) • Pioneered by biotechnology companies • Biopharmaceuticals can be quicker to discover than traditional small-molecule therapies • Biotechs now paring up with major pharmaceutical companies
- 17. 2. High-Throughput Screening Screening perhaps millions of compounds in a corporate collection to see if any show activity against a certain disease protein
- 18. High-Throughput Screening • Drug companies now have millions of samples of chemical compounds • High-throughput screening can test 100,000 compounds a day for activity against a protein target • Maybe tens of thousands of these compounds will show some activity for the protei • The chemist needs to intelligently select the 2 - 3 classes of compounds that show the most promise for being drugs to follow-up
- 19. Informatics Implications • Need to be able to store chemical structure and biological data for millions of datapoints – Computational representation of 2D structure • Need to be able to organize thousands of active compounds into meaningful groups – Group similar structures together and relate to activity • Need to learn as much information as possible from the data (data mining) – Apply statistical methods to the structures and related information
- 20. 3. Computational Models of Activity • Machine Learning Methods – E.g. Neural nets, Bayesian nets, SVMs, Kahonen nets – Train with compounds of known activity – Predict activity of “unknown” compounds • Scoring methods – Profile compounds based on properties related to target • Fast Docking – Rapidly “dock” 3D representations of molecules into 3D representations of proteins, and score according to how well they bind
- 21. 4. Combinatorial Chemistry • By combining molecular “building blocks”, we can create very large numbers of different molecules very quickly. • Usually involves a “scaffold” molecule, and sets of compounds which can be reacted with the scaffold to place different structures on “attachment points”.
- 22. Combinatorial Chemistry Issues • Which R-groups to choose • Which libraries to make – “Fill out” existing compound collection? – Targeted to a particular protein? – As many compounds as possible? • Computational profiling of libraries can help – “Virtual libraries” can be assessed on computer
- 23. 5. Molecular Modeling • 3D Visualization of interactions between compounds and proteins • “Docking” compounds into proteins computationally
- 24. 3D Visualization • X-ray crystallography and NMR Spectroscopy can reveal 3D structure of protein and bound compounds • Visualization of these “complexes” of proteins and potential drugs can help scientists understand the mechanism of action of the drug and to improve the design of a drug • Visualization uses computational “ball and stick” model of atoms and bonds, as well as surfaces • Stereoscopic visualization available
- 25. “Docking” compounds into proteins computationally
- 26. 6. In Vitro & In Silico ADME models • Traditionally, animals were used for pre-human testing. However, animal tests are expensive, time consuming and ethically undesirable • ADME (Absorbtion, Distribution, Metabolism, Excretion) techniques help model how the drug will likely act in the body • These methods can be experemental (in vitro) using cellular tissue, or in silico, using computational models
- 27. In Silico ADME Models • Computational methods can predict compound properties important to ADME, e.g. – LogP, a liphophilicity measure – Solubility – Permeability – Cytochrome p450 metabolism • Means estimates can be made for millions of compouds, helping reduce “atrittion” – the failure rate of compounds in late stage
- 28. Size of databases • Millions of entries in databases – CAS : 23 million – GeneBank : 5 million • Total number of drugs worldwide: 60,000 • Fewer than 500 characterized molecular targets • Potential targets : 5,000-10,000
