Title
APIF: A New Interaction Fingerprint Based on Atom Pairs and Its Application to Virtual Screening.
Abstract
A new interaction fingerprint (IF) called APIF (atom-pairs-based interaction fingerprint) has been developed for postprocessing protein-ligand docking results. Unlike other existing fingerprints which employ absolute locations of individual interactions, APIF considers the relative positions of pairs of interacting atoms. Docking-based virtual screening was performed with GOLD using the crystal structures of trypsin, rhinovirus, HIV protease, carboxypeptidase, and estrogen receptor-alpha as targets. A score derived from the similarity of the bit strings for each docking solution to that of a known reference binding mode was obtained. Comparisons between APIF, GoldScore function, and standard interaction fingerprint (CHIF) scores were performed using enrichment plots. Superior recovery rates were observed in the IF score cases. Comparable results were achieved by using either of the two interaction fingerprints, substantially improving GoldScore function enrichment factors. Binding mode analyses were also carried out in order to study the best method for selecting conformations with a binding mode similar to that of the reference crystallized complex. These showed that the first conformations retrieved by interaction fingerprint scores had a more similar binding mode to the reference complex than those retrieved by the GoldScore function.
