Objective: The importance of this research work is to design a library of novel coumarin derivatives by docking evaluation of the designed coumarin derivatives as squalene synthase inhibitor.
Methods: The three-dimensional structure of designed molecules of squalene synthase inhibitors was collected from Protein Data Bank. The designed molecules were docked onto the enzymes that are squalene synthase inhibitor - 3WCM, 3WCJ, and 3Q2Z protein using SYBYL-X 2.1. Using a standard protocol, the protein was subjected to minimization and protomol generation.
Results: By this method, we visualized the possible binding and also estimated the protein interactions with our intended coumarin library, using SYBYL-X 2.1 software. Into the active site of the selected enzymes, all the 20 coumarins were docked and then the docking scores revealed that the compounds possess high affinity toward the selected enzymes.
Conclusion: With the help of virtual evaluation, we have elaborated a fast synthetically accessible coumarin-based compounds, and it is an advanced and original scaffold in the area of probable human squalene synthase inhibitors. Some of the developed compounds show better binding property than ligand, and in 3q2Z, the compound 5d shows better binding property than the protein. Furthermore, 6g and 6c have good binding property. In 3 WCM, the compound 6f has better property. In 3 WCJ, the compounds 6g and 6f show better binding property than the protein.
