Publication Abstract from PubMedThe relationship between the structures of protein-ligand complexes existing in the crystal and in solution, essential in the case of fragment-based screening by X-ray crystallography (FBS-X), has been often an object of controversy. To address this question simultaneous co-crystallization and soaking of two inhibitors with different ratios, Fidarestat (FID; K(d) =6.5nM) and IDD594 (594; K(d) =61nM), which bind to h-Aldose Reductase (AR), have been performed. The subatomic resolution of the crystal structures allows the differentiation of both inhibitors, even when the structures are almost superposed. We have determined the occupation ratio in solution by mass spectrometry (MS) Occ(FID)/Occ(594) = 2.7 and by X-ray crystallography Occ(FID)/Occ(594) = 0.6. The occupancies in the crystal and in solution differs 4.6 times, implying that ligand binding potency is influenced by crystal contacts. A structural analysis shows that the loop A (residues 122-130), which is exposed to the solvent, is flexible in solution, and is involved in packing contacts within the crystal. Furthermore, inhibitor 594 contacts the base of loop A, stabilizing it, while inhibitor FID does not. This is shown by the difference in B-factors of the loop A between the AR-594 and AR-FID complexes. A stable loop diminishes the entropic energy barrier to binding, favoring 594 versus FID. Therefore, the effect of the crystal environment should be taken in consideration in the X-ray diffraction analysis of ligand binding to proteins. This conclusion highlights the need for additional methodologies in the case of FBS-X to validate this powerful screening technique, which is widely used. SYNOPSIS: Crystals soaked simultaneously with two inhibitors and corresponding models of the complex of Aldose Reductase with two inhibitors solved at subatomic resolution reveal differences between binding of inhibitors with enzyme in solution and in crystals, which has to be taken into account in FBS-X screenings Proteins 2012.
