Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of theoretical and computational chemistry, and in particular to a method and device for generating intermolecular interaction conformations based on electrostatic potential matching. Background Art

[0002] In the past few decades, quantum chemical calculation methods have made great progress. For a chemical system, people can now obtain quite accurate calculation results through quantum chemical calculations. One of the most important application areas is the calculation and research of non-covalent interaction systems, which plays an important role in chemistry, biology, and materials science.

[0003] Unlike covalent bonds, non-covalent interactions do not involve electron sharing between atoms. They are mainly electromagnetic interactions between or within molecules. The energy of non-covalent interactions is usually very small, only 1~5 kcal / mol. Hydrogen bonds are also usually considered non-covalent interactions. The energy of some hydrogen bonds is very large, reaching the order of tens of kcal / mol, but still less than the strength of ordinary chemical bonds. For general polar molecules, non-covalent interactions are usually dominated by electrostatic interactions. Electrostatic interactions are of vital importance in the formation of various self-assembled nanostructures, providing stable and strong interactions between various enzymes, peptides and proteins. For a molecular system, due to the different electronegativity of each atom in its structure and the chemical environment in which it is located, the distribution of electrons on it is also uneven, with more electrons distributed in some places and less electrons distributed in some places. In areas with higher electron density, the value of electrostatic potential is also more negative, and vice versa. Generally, areas with more negative electrostatic potential values ​​are called nucleophilic areas, and areas with more positive electrostatic potential values ​​are called electrophilic areas. When two molecules approach each other, the nucleophilic region of one molecule tends to attract the electrophilic region of the other molecule (the same is true inside a flexible molecule).

[0004] At present, non-covalent interactions are widely present in nature, especially playing an important role in the chemical reaction process in organisms. Non-covalent interactions are essential for maintaining the three-dimensional structure of molecules such as proteins and nucleic acids. At the same time, they also have very important applications in drug design, material crystallization and design, and material self-assembly. To calculate the energy of non-covalent interactions, the most important thing is to obtain the conformation of intermolecular interactions, and then select appropriate quantum chemical calculation methods to calculate the interaction energy based on this conformation.

[0027] In this embodiment, in step S1, the 3D conformation of the set molecule is calculated by quantum chemical strategy to obtain the wave function information of the molecular system; The quantum chemical strategies include, but are not limited to, post-Hartree-Fock strategies based on wave functions, density functional theory (DFT) strategies based on electron density, and semi-empirical strategies.

[0028] In this embodiment, the set molecule is calculated according to the wave function information to obtain the electron density value of the set molecule; Specifically, after calculating the wave function information of the molecular system, the electron density value at any point in space can be further calculated from the wave function information. The electron density at each point in space needs to be calculated by constructing a grid. The molecule is wrapped with a rectangular prism to determine the size of the entire molecule. The three sides of the rectangular prism are divided into grid points, and the number of segments divided on the three sides is , and , then the number of grid points into which the entire rectangular prism is divided is The more grid points there are, the more computation is required, and vice versa.

[0029] The calculation formula for the electron density of any grid point in the set molecular space is: ; ; In the formula, is the electron density; is the orbital occupancy number; is the orbital expansion coefficient; 、 、 are the components of the three directions of the Cartesian coordinates of the grid point; 、 、 is the exponent of the Gaussian basis function; is the base of natural logarithms; is the distance from the grid point to the coordinate origin; is the exponential factor.

[0030] In this embodiment, in step S2, the set molecule is calculated by constructing an isosurface strategy to construct a van der Waals surface of the set molecule; Specifically, the definition of van der Waals surface: According to Bader's definition of van der Waals surface, it is an isosurface formed by the electron density around the molecule of 0.001 au. In order to obtain the van der Waals surface, the method of constructing isosurfaces in computational graphics can be used, including but not limited to the use of surface nets method, asymptotic decider method, marching cubes method and other methods.

[0031] In this embodiment, the electrostatic potential value of the lattice point on the van der Waals surface of the set molecule is calculated by setting the potential calculation strategy; Specifically, after constructing the van der Waals surface, it is necessary to calculate the electrostatic potential value of the grid points on the van der Waals surface.

The orientation confirmation strategy includes but is not limited to: atomic van der Waals surface method, van der Waals surface random point sampling method, etc.

[0033] In this embodiment, in step S4, the 3D conformations of the set molecules are obtained by setting a public data set or geometric structure optimization processing; the 3D conformations of the set molecules are spliced ​​in pairs according to the orientations in which the set molecules approach each other, by setting a splicing strategy, to form non-covalent interaction conformations.

[0034] Specifically, for the two molecules to be studied, their molecular 3D conformations must first be obtained, which can be obtained from public data sets or by performing geometric structure optimization using quantum chemistry software including but not limited to Gaussian, ORCA, Q-Chem, etc.

[0035] According to the orientation of the two molecules approaching each other, the 3D conformations of the two molecules are spliced ​​to form a non-covalent interaction conformation. The splicing strategy includes but is not limited to: Rodrigues rotation matrix method, automated interaction site screening method, interaction fusion method, etc.

[0036] In one possible embodiment, an example of generating a non-covalent interaction conformation of dimethyl sulfide-ethanol molecules is provided as follows: The molecular formula of dimethyl sulfide is CH3SCH3; the molecular formula of ethanol is CH3CH2OH T1. Constructing grid points: For dimethyl sulfide molecules, The final number of grid points in the three directions is 64, 53, and 56, so the total number of grid points is 189952. For ethanol molecules, The final grid number numerators in the three directions are 60, 51, and 48, so the total number of grid points is 146,800.

[0037] T2. Calculate the electron density: Use the formula to calculate the electron density of the two molecules above at different grid points Data, set the threshold For 10 -4 , that is, select |ρ-0.001|<10 -4 The grid points of are used as the grid points for the subsequent determination of the van der Waals surface.

[0038] T3. Use the Marching Cubes method to construct the molecular van der Waals surface. Each small cube obtained in step T2 is further divided into 6 tetrahedrons to more accurately approximate the surface. T4. Perform the following operations on each tetrahedron: a. Check the 8 vertices of the tetrahedron. b. Determine which edges intersect with the isosurface. c. Calculate the location of the intersection. d. Generate triangular patches based on the intersection.

[0039] T5. Use linear interpolation to determine the intersection of the isosurface and the edge. The interpolation formula used is: ; in, and are the two endpoints of the edge, and is the corresponding electron density value.

[0040] T6. Generate 0 to 2 triangles based on the intersection of the tetrahedron and the isosurface, and add the generated triangles to the output mesh.

[0041] T7. Merge duplicate vertices and use smoothing to improve the quality of the generated surface, and finally obtain a van der Waals surface represented by a triangular mesh.

[0042] T8. Calculate the electrostatic potential value of the van der Waals surface grid. The van der Waals surfaces of dimethyl sulfide and ethanol molecules are finally obtained, such as Figure 2 As shown; the numerical distribution of electrostatic potential corresponding to each grid point on the van der Waals surface is as follows Figure 3 shown.

[0043] T9. Use the method of dividing the van der Waals surface into different atoms: different positions of the van der Waals surface are assigned to different atoms according to the following weight formula: ; in, To divide into The weight on the atom, and They are The distance and radius of the atom from the origin of the coordinate system, is the distance from any point in space to the origin of the coordinate system. The van der Waals surface is therefore divided into multiple parts, each of which is attributed to the corresponding atom.

[0044] T10. Count the extreme points of the electrostatic potential on each part of the van der Waals surface. The extreme points are either positive or negative. A positive extreme point indicates that the area near the atom to which it belongs is an electrophilic region, and a negative extreme point indicates that the area near the atom to which it belongs is a nucleophilic region. The Cartesian coordinates of the extreme points of the electrostatic potential of dimethyl sulfide and ethanol molecules are recorded in Table 1, which are divided into positive extreme points and negative extreme points. Matching the positive extreme points of the dimethyl sulfide molecule with the negative extreme points of ethanol, and matching the negative extreme points of the dimethyl sulfide molecule with the positive extreme points of ethanol, will result in a total of 6×2+2×4=20 molecular conformations.

[0045] Table 1 Cartesian coordinates of the extreme points of electrostatic potential of dimethyl sulfide and ethanol molecules

[0046] T11. Given two molecular structures, first use the Cartesian coordinate system of the dimethyl sulfide molecule as the standard, move the ethanol molecule into this coordinate system and keep a certain distance from the dimethyl sulfide molecule to ensure that there is no intersection between them. According to the extreme points of the electrostatic potential of the two molecules obtained in step T10, the molecular orientation vectors of the two molecules are determined. It can be seen from step T10 that a total of 20 molecular conformations will be obtained by matching the electrostatic potential. Fix the dimethyl sulfide molecule, and use the Rodrigues rotation matrix to rotate the ethanol molecule according to the obtained vector so that it is parallel and opposite to the vector of the water molecule. When the relative vectors of the two molecules are aligned, the distance between the two molecules is shortened along the direction of this vector until a reasonable position is reached. As shown in FIG. Figure 4 As shown, all 20 generated conformations are displayed.
