Resumo: | Ebola virusdisease (EVD) is responsible for outbreaks of infection, markedly by
epidemics in West Africa. According to the WHO - World Health Organization,
the Ebola of 2014 produced more deaths than all the successes of the previous
ebola together. The in vitro virus envelope consists of trimer of a glycoprotein
(GP), which is formed by proteins for the formation of GP1 and GP2 subunits.
These are related to the anchoring and fusion of the virus in the host cell,
respectively. A FL region (Fusion Loop region), contained in the GP2 subunit,
also called the fusion loop, behaves as the binding site KZ52 of a potent
inhibitor, Toremifene. This ligand acts primarily as an estrogen receptor
antagonist during hormone replacement cycles, more recent study
demonstrated strong and effective binding with an Ebola virus glycoprotein. In
fact, tests of classical performance indicators were triggered by GPD and the
activation of GP2 was triggered prematurely, which prevents the fusion between
the virus and the host endosome.In this dissertation, Molecular Modeling
techniques, especially the Molecular Fractionation Method with Conjugated
Coats (MFCC), were used to calculate the binding energies between the amino
acid residues of the GP glycoprotein of the Ebola virus and the drug
Toremifeno, to characterize energetically the affinity to the formation of this
biocomplex. The structural and energetic understanding of the toremifene-GP1 /
GP2 complex will reveal the inhibitory mechanism of this ligand and,
subsequently, will guide the development of previously non-existent anti-Ebola
drugs. As results, residues ASP522 (-10.39 Kcal / mol), GLU100 (-8.59 Kcal /
mol), TYR517 (-6.50 Kcal / mol), THR519 (-3.24 Kcal / mol ), LEU186 (-2.77
Kcal / mol) and LEU515 (-2.76 Kcal / mol) are mainly responsible for the
stability of the Ebola virus Toremifene / GP1-GP2 complex; The order of
interactional relevance of drug regions is i (e4: -63.02 kcal / mol; e40: -26.39)>
iii (e4: -23.66 kcal / mol; e40: -21, 11 Kcal / mol)> ii (e4: -10.36 kcal / mol; e40: -
10.13 Kcal / mol); [iii] in terms of the energy contribution of the secondary
structures of the GP1 / GP2 receptor, the β-11 (GP1) leaf and the β-18 (GP2)
leaf are the ones that have the most permissible amino acids at the binder
coupling, β-10 (GP1) and the α-18 (GP2) helix have the residues that cause the
binder to repulse to the coupling pocket. |
