Binding of Fidarestat Stereoisomers with Aldose Reductase

Abstract: Abstract:The stereospecificity in binding to aldose reductase (ALR2) of two fidarestat {6-fluoro-2',5'-dioxospiro[chroman-4,4'-imidazolidine]-2-carboxamide} stereoisomers [(2S,4S) and (2R,4S)] has been investigated by means of molecular dynamics simulations using free energy integration techniques. The difference in the free energy of binding was found to be 2.0 ± 1.7 kJ/mol in favour of the (2S,4S)-form, in agreement with the experimental inhibition data. The relative mobilities of the fidarestats complexed… Show more

“…Such stereoisomers often differ in biological activities and pharmacokinetic profiles, and the use of such mixtures may result in adverse effects of the drug particularly if they are associated with the inactive or less active isomer (Hutt and O'Grady, 1996). Because the binding of a compound to a biomolecular receptor in the body is the first and critical step to initiate pharmacological effects (Lin et al, 2011), differential binding affinities of different stereoisomers with the target enzymes can lead to their different bioactivities (Kim et al, 2006). Chiral molecules will certainly play a role in the exploitation of three-dimensional space for the development of new drugs in the future.…”

“…The stereospecificity in binding to aldose reductase of fidarestat ((2R,4S) stereoisomer) compared to its (2R,4S) stereoisomer has been investigated by means of crystallographic structures analysis 67 and of molecular dynamics simulations using free energy integration techniques. 12 The two stereoisomers differ mainly in the orientation of the carbamoyl moiety with respect to the active site and rotation around the bond joining the carbamoyl substituent to the ring.…”
