Prediction of Binding Affinities of HIV-1 Protease Inhibitors
HIV-1 protease has been the subject of intense research during the last few years. The development of protease inhibitors is a major endeavor for several pharmaceutical companies, since the successful inhibition of this protein arrests viral maturation. Inhibitors of the HIV-1 protease are substrate analogues, i.e., they function by competing with the natural substrates for the active site. Because substrates are rapidly hydrolyzed by the protease, crystallographic structures of enzyme / substrate complexes cannot be obtained, thus creating additional obstacles to the design process.
In the example presented here, the known structure of the HIV-1 protease with the inhibitor Ace-Thr-Ile-Nle-Nle-Gln-Arg-NH2 (pdb file 4hvp) is used to generate the structure of the widely used chromogenic substrate Lys-Ala-Arg-Val-Nle-NPhe-Glu-Ala-Nle-NH2. In the chemical formulas, Nle stands for norleucine, and NPhe for p-nitro-phenylalanine...

Application of Structure-Based Thermodynamic Design of Peptide Inhibitors of the Aspartic Protease Endothiapepsin
The development of a structure parameterization of the energetics of protein folding and binding (Bardi et al., 1997; D'Aquino et al., 1996; Gomez et al., 1995(a); Gomez et al., 1995(b); Hilser et al., 1996(b); Luque et al., 1996) has been shown to be accurate enough to predict the helical propensities of amino acids with an accuracy better than 0.2 kcal / mol (Luque et al., 1996), to correctly predict the global stability of proteins and the stability constants per residue as reflected in the pattern of NMR-detected hydrogen exchange protection factors (Hilser et al., 1996(c); Hilser et al., 1997(a); Hilser et al., 1997(b)), and to predict the binding affinity of thirteen HIV-1 protease inhibitors for which high resolution structures are available with an accuracy better than ±1 kcal / mol (Bardi et al., 1997). Since the parameterization has reached the state in which accu...
