Joint analysis of the effect of key mutations in the EGFR protein on binding to JBJ-04-125-02 and AMP

A mutant-selective EGFR allosteric inhibitor, JBJ-04-125-02, which as a single agent, can inhibit cell proliferation and EGFR L858R/T790M/C797S signaling in vitro and in vivo. However, increased EGFR dimer formation limits treatment efficacy and leads to drug resistance. Remarkably, osimertinib, an ATP-competitive covalent EGFR inhibitor, uniquely and significantly enhances the binding of JBJ-04-125-02 for mutant EGFR.[1]

Allosteric inhibition

Allosteric inhibition is a form of noncompetitive inhibition. This means that the inhibitor is not directly competing with the substrate at the active site. Instead, it is indirectly changing the composition of the enzyme. After changing its shape, the enzyme becomes inactive.

Results

obtained numerical calculations on the effect of mutations in the EGFR protein on the binding affinity to two competing molecules Gefitinib and AMP-PNP

1. Results of numerical simulations, we found that an additional mutation L858R to T790M significantly enhances ATP-binding affinity of the L858R mutant

2. Numerical modeling revealed that the introduction of mutations T790M and L858R / T790M are characterized by a higher affinity for ATPPMP than an increase in the affinity for gefitinib. The increased ATP affinity of the L858R / T790M mutant leads to gefitinib resistance at cellular concentrations of ATP

3. Results of numerical simulations showed the T790M mutation binds gefitinib with a higher affinity than wild-type EGFR.

4. Results of numerical simulations showed the L858R substitution is also characterized by a higher affinity for gefitinib than the wild-type protein.

5. Results of numerical simulations showed substitution G719 has a higher affinity for gefitinib than for wild-type protein.

6. Results of numerical simulations showed substitution of G719S / T790M results in a higher affinity for both gefitinib and AMAPNP.

7. Numerical analysis of the two substitutions G719S and G719S / T790M indicates that the double mutation G719S / T790M results in a greater affinity for gefitinib.

Thus, the numerical method developed by us makes it possible to determine the range of changes in the stability of dimeric complexes with the participation of a small chemical molecule and a protein molecule. Application of our method will allow you to identify mutations that lead to a decrease in the affinity of components. Numerical analysis requires a three-dimensional structure of the dimer under study, in the protein component of which substitutions of amino acid residues will be introduced.
