Abstract/OtherAbstract:
Protein kinase 2 (CK2) is a potential target, and the coumarins were identified as the attractive CK2 inhibitors. In this study, two models (CoMFA and CoMSIA) were established, and their reliabilities were supported by statistical parameters. From the CoMFA and CoMSIA models, the hydrophobic and hydrogen bond play very important roles in the interactions between inhibitors and CK2, which were confirmed sufficiently by molecular docking. Furthermore, the binding mode of the inhibitors at the active sites of CK2 was also investigated by docking study. The hydroxyl at the position R(5) is more important for coumarins inhibitors because that it forms hydrogen bonds not only with Lys68 as hydrogen acceptor but also with H(2) O as hydrogen donor. In addition, hydroxyl can make electrostatic interactions with electropositive Lys68 residue. The large group at the R(6) position is not conducive to inhibitor dock into the groove of the binding site of CK2. When there is nitro group, the electrostatic interaction between ligand and receptor is enhanced significantly, and the nitro oxygen can form hydrogen bonds with the backbone NH of Lys68 and Asp175 simultaneously. The results obtained from molecular modeling techniques not only provide the models to predict the activity of inhibitors but also lead to a better understanding of the interactions between inhibitors and CK2, which will be very helpful for drug design.
