2D Similarity-based PPI Focused Library

Protein-protein interactions (PPI) are key regulator of cellular pathways that are closely related to a range of cellular activities, PPI regulation can therefore significantly affect the health and disease status of the body. PPI plays an essential role in all types of life processes, and it is estimated that there are about 650,000 PPI targets, which makes the discovery of PPI modulators promising in the field of drug discovery.

Aiming to deliver multiple PPI regulators, BOC Sciences has used a molecular 2D similarity-based approach to assess the similarity of compounds.

2D Similarity-based PPI Focused Library Design

BOC Sciences has developed this unique library by employing a 2D similarity approach to provide more than 17,400 drug-like screening compounds. We have extract these compounds from both the TimbalDB and Binding DB, Pubmed DB, and ChEMBL DB.

  1. Firstly, we collect a reference set of 40,000 biologically active compounds from PPI-related assays through various databases
  2. Then, the BOC Sciences HTS compound collection is available to search for compounds similar to the compounds from the reference database using the MDL public key
  3. Finally, our teams can produce small-molecule analogs of known PPI inhibitors with experimentally determined activity

The library contains inhibitors for the following protein-protein TimbalDB complexes:

  • ATP-dependent Clp protease proteolytic subunit
  • Rac1/GEFs
  • CRM1/Rev
  • Annexin A2/S100-A10
  • Rad51/BRCA2
  • Cyclophilins
  • Bcl-2 and Bcl-XL with BAX; BAK and BID
  • S100B/p53
  • E1/E2
  • BetaCatenin/Tcf4 & Tcf3
  • SOD1 dimer
  • FKBP1A/FK506
  • BRD2/Ack
  • TNFa trimer or TNFa/TNFR
  • HIF-1a/p300
  • BRD4/NUT
  • Transthyretin tetramer
  • IL-2/IL-2Ra
  • CD80/CD28 (or CTLA-4)
  • Tubulin dimer
  • Integrins
  • Clathrin/adaptor & accessory proteins
  • UL30(Pol)/UL42 subunits of HSV type 1 DNA polymerase
  • Keap1/Nrf2
  • c-Myc/Max
  • XIAP/Caspase9 or SMAC (BIR3 domanin)
  • K-Ras/SOS1
  • p53/MDM2
  • ZipA/FtsZ
  • MLL/Menin
  • p53/MDMX

The following protein complexes was collected Using Binding DB, Pubmed DB, and ChEMBL DB:

  • Menin/Histone-lysine N-methyltransferase MLL
  • Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma/Nuclear receptor coactivator 1
  • Importin subunit beta-1/Snurportin-1

  • MIF/CD74 (Macrophage migration inhibitory factor and HLA-DR antigens-associated invariant chain)
  • Cyclin-dependent kinases regulatory subunit 1/S-phase kinase-associated protein 2
  • Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma/Nuclear receptor corepressor 2
  • Tumor suppressor p53/oncoprotein Mdm2
  • Voltage-gated N-type calcium channel alpha-1B subunit/Amyloid beta A4 precursor protein-binding family A member 1
  • Keap1/p62
  • Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma/Nuclear receptor coactivator 2
  • ORAI1/STIM1
  • Keap1/Nrf2
