    Abstract We focus on drug repurposing in the Ras signaling pathway, considering structural similarities of protein-protein interfaces. The interfaces formed by physically interacting proteins are found from PDB if available and via PRISM (PRotein Interaction by Structural Matching) otherwise. The structural coverage of these interactions has been increased from 21 to 92% using PRISM. Multiple conformations of each protein are used to include protein dynamics and diversity. Next, we find FDA-approved drugs bound to structurally similar protein-protein interfaces. The results suggest that HIV protease inhibitors tipranavir, indinavir, and saquinavir may bind to EGFR and ERBB3/HER3 interface. Tipranavir and indinavir may also bind to EGFR and ERBB2/HER2 interface. Additionally, a drug used in Alzheimer's disease can bind to RAF1 and BRAF interface. Hence, we propose a methodology to find drugs to be potentially used for cancer using a dataset of structurally similar protein-protein interface clusters rather than pockets in a systematic way.

    Abstract Proteins interact through their interfaces to fulfill essential functions in the cell. They bind to their partners in a highly specific manner and form complexes that have a profound effect on understanding the biological pathways they are involved in. Any abnormal interactions may cause diseases. Therefore, the identification of small molecules which modulate protein interactions through their interfaces has high therapeutic potential. However, discovering such molecules is challenging. Most protein-protein binding affinity is attributed to a small set of amino acids found in protein interfaces known as hot spots. Recent studies demonstrate that drug-like small molecules specifically may bind to hot spots. Therefore, hot spot prediction is crucial. As experimental data accumulates, artificial intelligence begins to be used for computational hot spot prediction. First, we review machine learning and deep learning for computational hot spot prediction and then explain the significance of hot spots toward drug design.

    Abstract Summary: We present a web-based server for navigating and visualizing possible interactions between SARS-CoV-2 and human host proteins. The interactions are obtained from HMI_Pred which relies on the rationale that virus proteins mimic host proteins. The structural alignment of the viral protein with one side of the human protein-protein interface determines the mimicry. The mimicked human proteins and predicted interactions, and the binding sites are presented. The user can choose one of the 18 SARS-CoV-2 protein structures and visualize the potential 3D complexes it forms with human proteins. The mimicked interface is also provided. The user can superimpose two interacting human proteins in order to see whether they bind to the same site or different sites on the viral protein. The server also tabulates all available mimicked interactions together with their match scores and number of aligned residues. This is the first server listing and cataloging all interactions between SARS-CoV-2 and human protein structures, enabled by our innovative interface mimicry strategy.
    Availability: The server is available at https://interactome.ku.edu.tr/sars/.
