Free energy perturbation (FEP)-guided scaffold hopping.
Acta Pharm Sin B, 12:1351-1362, 2022

PubMed Abstract: Scaffold hopping refers to computer-aided screening for active compounds with different structures against the same receptor to enrich privileged scaffolds, which is a topic of high interest in organic and medicinal chemistry. However, most approaches cannot efficiently predict the potency level of candidates after scaffold hopping. Herein, we identified potent PDE5 inhibitors with a novel scaffold a free energy perturbation (FEP)-guided scaffold-hopping strategy, and FEP shows great advantages to precisely predict the theoretical binding potencies Δ between ligands and their target, which were more consistent with the experimental binding potencies Δ (the mean absolute deviations  < 2 kcal/mol) than those Δ or Δ predicted by the MM-PBSA or MM-GBSA method. Lead had an IC of 8.7 nmol/L and exhibited a different binding pattern in its crystal structure with PDE5 from the famous starting drug tadalafil. Our work provides the first report the FEP-guided scaffold hopping strategy for potent inhibitor discovery with a novel scaffold, implying that it will have a variety of future applications in rational molecular design and drug discovery.
