Using the grew command, we can check the number of fragments generated. Scp the mol2 files and open the files in Viewdock using Chimera can see how they match with the original structure file.

Using the grep command, we can check the number of fragments generated. Copy the mol2 files to your local computer and open the files in Viewdock using Chimera. Chimera can visualize the fragments and show how well they match with the original crystallized ligand.

In this session, we are going to use the predetermined structures from the virtual screen tutorial to do de novo design


I. Focused De Novo Design

In focused De Novo Design, we aim to generate a ligand that closely resembles Simvastatin in the binding pocket by connecting generated fragments from scratch. By putting the generated fragments back into the pocket through a variety of fragment assemblies, we can check how accurate simulation is in terms of the sampled ligand.



Fragment Libraries

First, a fragment library needs to be generated using the original ligand as the template. The generated fragments should build the same ligand seen in the crystalized structure.

Let us create a new directory for the fragment library, using the command:

mkdir 010_dn_fraglib

Create a new input file for fragment generation, using the command:

vi fragment.in

Use the following parameters to answer the default questions from the DOCK program (vi fragment.in, and place in the following parameters):

conformer_search_type                                        flex

Once the fragment.in the file is generated, run the dock6 program using the fragment.in as the input file:

dock6 -i fragment.in -o fragment.out

After the fragment library generation is complete, 6 files shoulbe be seen in the current directory (fraglib_linker.mol2, fraglib_rigid.mol2, fraglib_scaffold.mol2, fraglib_sidechain.mol2, and fraglib_torenv.dat)

Using the grep command, we can check the number of fragments generated. Copy the mol2 files to your local computer and open the files in Viewdock using Chimera. Chimera can visualize the fragments and show how well they match with the original crystallized ligand.

grep -wc MOLECULE *.mol2 | wc -l

Focused Denovo Growth

Next, we'll be using the fragments generated in the last step to build new small molecules for our system. The fragments will connect with each other through a variety of specified constraints such as charge and molecular weight.

Create a new directory for the fragment library, using the command:

mkdir 011_dn_focus

Create a new input file for small molecule generation, using the command:

vi dn_focus.in

Once the fragment.in file is generated, run the dock6 program using fragment.in as the designated input file:

dock6 -i dn_focus.in -o dn_focus.out

After the de novo growth is complete, 8 .mol2 files and 1 .sh file will appear in the current directory.

Focused Denovo Rescore

Even though we've generated and visualized these fragments, we want to rescore them based on numerous properties for better in vitro modeling.

Create a new directory for the fragment library, using the command:

mkdir 012_dn_focusrescore

Create a new input file for fragment generation, using the command:

vi rescore.in

Once the rescore.in file is generated, run the dock6 program using rescore.in as the input file:

dock6 -i rescore.in -o rescore.out

You may need to submit this as a slurm script depending on how long the job initially takes.

#!/bin/bash
#SBATCH --time=48:00:00
#SBATCH --nodes=1
#SBATCH --ntasks=28
#SBATCH --job-name=dn_rescore
#SBATCH --output=dn_rescore.out
#SBATCH -p long-28core
cd $SLURM_SUBMIT_DIR
echo "starting Dock6.9 simulation"
/gpfs/projects/AMS536/zzz.programs/dock6.9_release/bin/dock6.mpi -i dn_rescore.in -o dn_rescore.out

After the rescore is complete, footprint and H-bond scored txt files are generated. The descriptor scored .mol2 files should also appear in the current directory.
