Contents
I. Introduction
DOCK
DOCK is a molecular docking program used in drug discovery. It was developed by Irwin D. Kuntz, Jr. and colleagues at UCSF (see UCSF DOCK). This program, given a protein binding site and a small molecule, tries to predict the correct binding mode of the small molecule in the binding site, and the associated binding energy. Small molecules with highly favorable binding energies could be new drug leads. This makes DOCK a valuable drug discovery tool. DOCK is typically used to screen massive libraries of millions of compounds against a protein to isolate potential drug leads. These leads are then further studied, and could eventually result in a new, marketable drug. DOCK works well as a screening procedure for generating leads, but is not currently as useful for optimization of those leads.
DOCK 6 uses an incremental construction algorithm called anchor and grow. It is described by a three-step process:
- Rigid portion of ligand (anchor) is docked by geometric methods.
- Non-rigid segments added in layers; energy minimized.
- The resulting configurations are 'pruned' and energy re-minimized, yielding the docked configurations.
Beta Trypsin
Beta trypsin is a serine protease involved in degrading peptides and proteins. The development of inhibitors of trypsin-like serine proteases has been justified because of the wide processes these enzymes regulate, among them blood coagulation, complement activation, digestion, reproduction and phagocytosis. Early developments of inhibitors for these enzymes were based on the benzamidine chemical structure. Crystals structures of these benzamidine based inhibitors in complex with beta trypsin gave new insights of the interactions with the inhibitors and pointed out he importance of the "oxyanion hole" within the catalytic site. This gave new insights of the reaction mechanism of the enzyme and revealed what interactions are required to develop inhibitors with increased potency. DOI: 10.1021/bi981636u
In this tutorial we will use PDB website 1BJU deposited crystal structure of betatrypsin in complex with inhibitor GP6.
Organizing Directories
While performing docking, it is convenient to adopt a standard directory structure / naming scheme, so that files are easy to find / identify. For this tutorial, we will use something similar to the following:
~username/AMS536-Spring2016/dock-tutorial/00.files/
/01.dockprep/
/02.surface-spheres/
/03.box-grid/
/04.dock/
/05.large-virtual-screen/
/06.virtual-screen/
/07.footprint/
/08.print_fps
|
In addition, most of the important files that are derived from the original crystal structure will be given a prefix that is the same as the PDB code, '1BJU'.The following sections in this tutorial will adhere to this directory structure/naming scheme.
II. Preparing the Receptor and Ligand
Download the PDB File (1BJU)
Go to the PDB website to download 1BJU.pdb file(PDB code: 1BJU). Using command or WinSCP to transfer 1BJU.pdb to 00.files. If you are in 00.files now, the command is:
cp ~/Downloads/1BJU.pdb .
Edit the PDB File (1BJU)
Using vi command to open 1BJU.pdb, then deleting bottom and top lines which do not have ATOM or ATPATM in its start. Then changing all ATPATM to ATOM using command:
%s /ATPATM/ATOM /gc
In addition, changing all GP6 to LIG B using command:
%s /GP6 /LIG B /gc
Saving this as raw_1BJU.pdb in 00.files.
Prepare ligand and receptor files for dock
Create dockprep file
Open raw_1BJU.pdb file in chimera, in Tools, find structure editing, then click AddH to add hydrogen in this system.
Also in structure editing, click Add charge, then, changing AMBER ff14SB to AMBER ff99SB and changing net charge to +1.
Saving it as 1BJU.dockprep.mol2 in 01.dockprep.
Create receptor file
Open 1BJU.dockprep.mol2 in chimera, then click select to choose ligand, click action in Atoms/Bonds click delete.
Saving this molecule as 1BJU.rec.mol2 in 01.dockprep.
Create ligand file
Open 1BJU.dockprep.mol2 in chimera, using the same method delete the protein molecule.
Saving it as 1BJU.lig.mol2 in 01.dockprep.
Create no hydrogen receptor file
Open 1BJU.rec.mol2 in chimera, click select, then choosing chemistry H to select hydrogen in protein, Using action button to delete H.
Saving it as 1BJU.rec.noH.pdb in 01.dockprep.
III. Generating Receptor Surface and Spheres

IV. Generating Box and Grid
Monaf Awwa
Box Generation
>Start Chimera and open the RECEPTOR files 1BJU.rec.noH.pdb Next, select the ACTION subheader, then select SURFACE, then SHOW
Once you can see the van der Waals surface of the protein, select the TOOLS subheader, then STRUCTURE EDITING, and lastly select WRITE DMS and save the file as 1BJU.dms
Now that we have a surface, we can more effectively calculate regions of the protein where a small molecule can bind. To further accelerate calculations, we will specify which atoms to calculate the interactions for via the program sphgen
Switch over to the 02.surfacespheres directory with the following command
cd 02.surfacespheres
Next, create an input file for sphgen to read.
vim INSPH
The file should have the following information
1BJU.rec.dms #the file corresponding to the surface is the input file R #we want the spheres outside the protein surface X #we want all subsets of spheres to be generated 0.0 #default size of proteins with surface contacts 4.0 #default maximum of the sphere radius generated (Angstroms) 1.4 #default minimum of the sphere radius generated (Angstroms) Also corresponds to probe radius 1BJU.rec.sph #output file name
Now we can enter the command to run sphgen
sphgen -i INSPH -o OUTSPH
Once completed, check the OUTSPH file to ensure no errors occured
If you'd like to visually inspect the spheres generated, start Chimera and load the 1BJU.rec.mol2 file, then load the 1BJU.rec.sph file.
Now we will use the showsphere program to convert our .sph file back to a .pdb format.
In the same directory, enter the command
showsphere
The following questions will appear. Answer as follows
Enter name of sphere cluster file:
1BJU.rec.sph
Enter cluster number to process (<0 = all):
-1
Generate surfaces as well as pdb files (<N>/Y)?
N
Enter name for output file prefix:
output_spheres
Process cluster 0 (contains ALL spheres) (<N>/Y)?
N
You should now have a file named output_spheres.pdb in your directory. You can visualize the spheres by loading chimera and the 1BJU.rec.noH.mol2, then loading the output_spheres.pdb file.
For the docking calculation, we are most interesting in a subset of the spheres. To select the spheres most important to ligand binding, we will use the command
sphere_selector 1BJU.rec.sph ../01.dockprep/1BJU.lig.mol2 8.0
The 8.0 Angstrom value indicates we want to select spheres within 8 angstroms of our ligand. This hypothetically means we are designing a competitive inhibitor.
Now lets create the proper output file for our spheres. Enter the command
showsphere
and answer the following questions
Enter name of sphere cluster file:
selected_spheres.sph
Enter cluster number to process (<0 = all):
-1
Generate surfaces as well as pdb files (<N>/Y)?
N
Enter name for output file prefix:
output_spheres_selected
Process cluster 0 (contains ALL spheres) (<N>/Y)?
N
This will ensure the docking calculation samples the most important regions of the protein surface
Grid computing
Since the electronic interactions between two objects in space can be decomposed into pairwise interactions, it is highly efficient to fully calculate a proteins electric contribution to binding energy before DOCKing a ligand.
switch to the 03.box-grid/ directory
cd 03.box-grid/
create an input file named showbox.in
vim showbox.in
enter the following information
Y # Do you want to calculate a box? (YES) 8.0 # How long should the box length be? ../02.surface-spheres/selected_spheres.sph # which sphere file is our input? 1 # How many clusters for the file? 1BJU.box.pdb # What do we want to name the output file?
save the file, then enter the following command to generate the box
showbox > showbox.in
The box can be visualized in Chimera by loading the output_spheres_selected.pdb file, then loading the 1BJU.box.pdb file
Next, we will calculate the grid energies
Create the input file for grid. Enter the command
vim grid.in
Run grid with the command
grid - grid.in
This allows you to go back and fix the input file in case there is a mistake when answer the questions prompted by grid.
grid.in
