Structural analysis of peptides that fill sites near the active center of the two different enzyme molecules by artificial intelligence and computer simulations
Using artificial intelligence, the binding styles of 167 tetrapeptides were predicted in the active site of papain and cathepsin K. Five tetrapeptides (Asn–Leu–Lys–Trp, Asp–Gln–Trp–Gly, Cys–Gln–Leu–Arg, Gln–Leu–Trp–Thr and Arg–Ser–Glu–Arg) were found to bind sites near the active center of both papa...

| Summary: | Using artificial intelligence, the binding styles of 167 tetrapeptides were predicted in the active site of papain and cathepsin K. Five tetrapeptides (Asn–Leu–Lys–Trp, Asp–Gln–Trp–Gly, Cys–Gln–Leu–Arg, Gln–Leu–Trp–Thr and Arg–Ser–Glu–Arg) were found to bind sites near the active center of both papain and cathepsin K. These five tetrapeptides have the potential to also bind sites of other cysteine proteases, and structural characteristics of these tetrapeptides should aid the design of a common inhibitor of cysteine proteases. Smart application of artificial intelligence should accelerate data mining of important complex systems. |
