De Novo Design
De novo design refers to the process of generating novel ligands in an effort to identify molecules of physiological significance that can be further optimized to become approved drug molecules. The synthesis of thousands of potential drug molecules are done experimentally daily, but with computers, millions of molecules can be computationally modelled and pre-selected for possible synthesis in a fraction of the time it would take to test all possible molecules solely experimentally. With this, scientists are able to direct their attention towards molecules that have the highest probability of imparting a therapeutic effect upon binding to a respective receptor.
This tutorial is the second part of the 2022 DOCK tutorial 2 with PDBID 4ZUD tutorial. You will need the files created in that tutorial to continue with this one!
Make a new directory to organize the files generated in this tutorial:
mkdir 005.denovo
Fragment Library Generation
To create new molecules, we need to begin with the building blocks. For the purposes of speed, we most often use pre-defined molecular fragments that can be arranged/attached in a variety of orientations to create unique structures. Since we have the structure of a ligand that is known to bind the 4ZUD protein, we can generate fragments from that molecule to increase the probability of creating molecules with similar properties to the known ligand.
In an input file:
vim fragment.in
Insert the following:
conformer_search_type flex write_fragment_libraries yes fragment_library_prefix fraglib fragment_library_freq_cutoff 1 fragment_library_sort_method freq fragment_library_trans_origin no use_internal_energy yes internal_energy_rep_exp 12 internal_energy_cutoff 100.0 ligand_atom_file ../001.structure/4ZUD_ligand_hydrogens.mol2 limit_max_ligands no skip_molecule no read_mol_solvation no calculate_rmsd no use_database_filter no orient_ligand yes automated_matching yes receptor_site_file ../002.surface_spheres/selected_spheres.sph max_orientations 1000 critical_points no chemical_matching no use_ligand_spheres no bump_filter no score_molecules no atom_model all vdw_defn_file /gpfs/projects/AMS536/zzz.programs/dock6.9_release/parameters/vdw_AMBER_parm99.defn flex_defn_file /gpfs/projects/AMS536/zzz.programs/dock6.9_release/parameters/flex.defn flex_drive_file /gpfs/projects/AMS536/zzz.programs/dock6.9_release/parameters/flex_drive.tbl ligand_outfile_prefix fragment.out write_orientations no num_scored_conformers 1 rank_ligands no
Run the fragment generation with the following command:
dock6 -i fragment.in -o fragment.out
DOCK should generate six files; three of those files should be mol2's of linker, scaffold, and side chain fragments. You can extract the number of fragments present in each file by running:
grep -wc MOLECULE *.mol2
Focused De Novo Growth
Now we can use the fragments generated in the previous step to allow DOCK to make new molecules that fall within certain rotamers, molecular weights, charges and chemical group compositions. DOCK will generate all possible molecules within the given parameters and that fall within resonable internal energies based on the AMBER van der Waals equation.
In a new directory:
mkdir dn_focused_growth
In an input file:
vim dn_focus.in
Insert the following:
conformer_search_type denovo dn_fraglib_scaffold_file ../fraglib_scaffold.mol2 dn_fraglib_linker_file ../fraglib_linker.mol2 dn_fraglib_sidechain_file ../fraglib_sidechain.mol2 dn_user_specified_anchor no dn_use_torenv_table yes dn_torenv_table ../fraglib_torenv.dat dn_sampling_method graph dn_graph_max_picks 30 dn_graph_breadth 3 dn_graph_depth 2 dn_graph_temperature 100.0 dn_pruning_conformer_score_cutoff 100.0 dn_pruning_conformer_score_scaling_factor 1.0 dn_pruning_clustering_cutoff 100.0 dn_constraint_mol_wt 550.0 dn_constraint_rot_bon 15 dn_constraint_formal_charge 2.0 dn_heur_unmatched_num 1 dn_heur_matched_rmsd 2.0 dn_unique_anchors 1 dn_max_grow_layers 9 dn_max_root_size 25 dn_max_layer_size 25 dn_max_current_aps 5 dn_max_scaffolds_per_layer 1 dn_write_checkpoints yes dn_write_prune_dump no dn_write_orients no dn_write_growth_trees no dn_output_prefix dn_focus.out use_internal_energy yes internal_energy_rep_exp 12 internal_energy_cutoff 100.0 use_database_filter no orient_ligand yes automated_matching yes receptor_site_file ../../002.surface_spheres/selected_spheres.sph max_orientations 1000 critical_points no chemical_matching no use_ligand_spheres no bump_filter no score_molecules yes contact_score_primary no contact_score_secondary no grid_score_primary yes grid_score_secondary no
Run this calculation with the following command:
dock6 -i dn_focus.in -o dn_focus.out
A few files will be generated, but the main file with all of the de novo molecules in a mol2 format is dn_focus.out.denovo_build.mol2. If you look at the dn_focus.out file you can see the number of molecules created which should be around 23,000.
