Fragment-Based Lead Discovery Using X-ray Crystallography

Hartshorn, Michael J., Murray, Christopher W., Cleasby, Anne, Frederickson, Martyn, Tickle, Ian J., Jhoti, Harren·2005·Journal of Medicinal Chemistry

Abstract

Fragment screening offers an alternative to traditional screening for discovering new leads in drug discovery programs. This paper describes a fragment screening methodology based on high throughput X-ray crystallography. The method is illustrated against five proteins (p38 MAP kinase, CDK2, thrombin, ribonuclease A, and PTP1B). The fragments identified have weak potency (>100 microM) but are efficient binders relative to their size and may therefore represent suitable starting points for evolution to good quality lead compounds. The examples illustrate that a range of molecular interactions (i.e., lipophilic, charge-charge, neutral hydrogen bonds) can drive fragment binding and also that fragments can induce protein movement. We believe that the method has great potential for the discovery of novel lead compounds against a range of targets, and the companion paper illustrates how lead compounds have been identified for p38 MAP kinase starting from fragments such as those described in this paper.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
