    Abstract The silent information regulator (sirtuin) is a family of enzymes involved in epigenetic processes with lysine deacetylase activity, having as substrates histones and other proteins. They participate in a wide range of cellular and pathologic processes, such as gene expression, cell division and motility, oxidative-induced stress management, metabolic control and carcinogenesis, among others, thus presenting as interesting therapeutic targets. In this article, the authors describe the inhibitory mechanisms and binding modes of the human sirtuin 2 (hSIRT2) inhibitors, which had their complexes with the enzyme structurally characterized. The results help pave the way for the rational designing of new hSIRT2 inhibitors and the development of novel therapeutic agents targeting this epigenetic enzyme.

    Abstract This study examines how two popular drug-likeness concepts used in early development, Lipinski Rule of Five (Ro5) and Veber's Rules, possibly affected drug profiles of FDA approved drugs since 1997. Our findings suggest that when all criteria are applied, relevant compounds may be excluded, addressing the harmfulness of blindly employing these rules. Of all oral drugs in the period used for this analysis, around 66 % conform to the RO5 and 85 % to Veber's Rules. Molecular Weight and calculated LogP showed low consistent values over time, apart from being the two least followed rules, challenging their relevance. On the other hand, hydrogen bond related rules and the number of rotatable bonds are amongst the most followed criteria and show exceptional consistency over time. Furthermore, our analysis indicates that topological polar surface area and total count of hydrogen bonds cannot be used as interchangeable parameters, contrary to the original proposal. This research enhances the comprehension of drug profiles that were FDA approved in the post-Lipinski period. Medicinal chemists could utilize these heuristics as a limited guide to direct their exploration of the oral bioavailability chemical space, but they must also steer the wheel to break these rules and explore different regions when necessary.

    Abstract Infections caused by protozoans remain a public health issue, especially in tropical countries. Serious adverse events, lack of efficacy at the different stages of the infection and routes of administration that have a negative impact on treatment adherence are some of the problems with currently available therapy against these diseases. Here we describe an epigenetic target, sirtuin 2 and its related proteins, that is promising given the results in phenotypic assays and

    Abstract Aim: The identification of drugs for the coronavirus disease-19 pandemic remains urgent. In this manner, drug repurposing is a suitable strategy, saving resources and time normally spent during regular drug discovery frameworks. Essential for viral replication, the main protease has been explored as a promising target for the drug discovery process. Materials & methods: Our virtual screening pipeline relies on the known 3D properties of noncovalent ligands and features of crystalized complexes, applying consensus analyses in each step. Results: Two oral (bedaquiline and glibenclamide) and one buccal drug (miconazole) presented 3D similarity to known ligands, reasonable predicted binding modes and micromolar predicted binding affinity values. Conclusion: We identified three approved drugs as promising inhibitors of the main viral protease and suggested design insights for future studies for development of novel selective inhibitors.
