S 40 A.3. Alignment procedures for CoMFA, CoMSIA ACE: The alignment is described in ref. 1 [reference list below]. AchE: We use the 3 pharmacophore features described by Golbraikh et al.2 (i.e. the benzyl group, the positively charged nitrogen atom of the piperidine group and the carbonyl acceptor in E2020) for aligning compounds. The conformation of E2020 was determined using the MCMM routine in Macromodel 7.2 (Schrodinger; Portland, OR) with the MMFF94S force field and GBSA implicit solvation model (500 Monte Carlo steps, other parameters default), and rigidly superposed on E2020 complexed with AchE (PDB 1eve). The lowest-energy conformation has a heavy-atom root-mean-square deviation (RMSD) of 0.9 Å when compared to the conformation extracted from the crystal structure. We did not use the ligand-bound conformation deduced from the crystal structure, as the purpose of a project using this set was to develop receptor surface models useful in the absence of such information. The same holds for the COX2 set. Other compounds were minimised with MMFF94S in GBSA implicit solvent and flexibly fit onto E2020 using the alignment module in Cerius2 (i.e. allowing rotation of free torsions). BZR: All ligands have been aligned onto diazepam, which was subjected to the same MCMM optimisation described for the AchE inhibitor E2020. As discussed in ref. 3, there are two lowenergy ring conformations for diazepam. Ring conformation “a” in Figure 10 of the above reference was used, as it is the bioactive conformation. Other compounds were minimised with MMFF94S in GBSA implicit solvent and flexibly fit onto diazepam using the shared fused ring system and phenyl group. Substituents were placed in a consistent fashion. Substituents on the rotatable phenyl ring of diazepam were placed on the edge nearest the fused ring structure (i.e. the "left" edge when depicted in the orientation given for BZR family A.1 in Table A.1.4), as that orientation has a lower energy compared to the alternate orientation having the phenyl ring rotated by 180° about its torsion. We use the syn conformation for esters such as Ro14-5974 (as depicted in Figure 1) instead of the anti conformation suggested by Cook et al.4,5 The syn conformer gives better overlap with other classes of BZR ligands, and has a B3LYP/6311+G(d,p) // HF/6-31G* energy only 2.1 kcal/mol higher than that of the anti conformer. COX2: The MCMM procedure discussed for the AchE inhibitor E2020 was applied to 8celecoxib. 8-celecoxib was superposed on the inhibitor SC558 in the PDB structure 1CX2. Note however that the inhibitors were not docked into the protein, but merely placed in the active site. In particular, the phenyl-SO2-X torsion determined by conformational searching is not the same as that in the crystal structure 1CX2. The other inhibitors were minimised with MMFF94S in GBSA implicit solvent and flexibly superposed on 8-celecoxib using three atoms on each of the three rings. Substituents were placed in a consistent fashion. For example, substituents R2 on the second vicinal ring (referring to the COX2 family A.1 in Table A.1.6) were always placed away from the first vicinal ring. The energy difference is very small between that orientation, and another in which the phenyl ring has been rotated by 180° about its torsion. As such, if one were to have no protein structure to aid in the alignment, it is best to be consistent as opposed to always choosing the global energy minimum.

S 41 DHFR: The crystal structures for several ligand - P. carinii (pc) DHFR complexes have been used for aligning compounds. The pcDHFR-bound structures of 33-2 (PDB 1daj) and 12-4b (PDB 1klk) were rigidly superposed onto folate (PDB 1cd2) using the atom mappings implied by folate labels shown in Figure A.1; the root-mean-square deviations (RMSDs) with respect to folate are 0.3 Å for 33-2 and 0.4 Å for 12-4b when calculated with the atoms used for the superposition. All other compounds were flexibly fit onto the most similar of these three templates. With the positions of the pyridine (having un-primed numbers in Figure A.1) and phenyl rings (having primed numbers in Figure A.1) fixed, structures were relaxed using the CFF97 force field in Cerius2 with no cut-off for van der Waals or electrostatic interactions (other parameters default). Substituents on the phenyl ring were placed in a consistent fashion, with preference for the solvent-exposed edge of the phenyl ring: the 2’ position was occupied before 6’ and the 3’ position before 5’, with the ortho position taking precedence over the meta position when both are substituted. This placement of substituents is consistent with that observed for the methoxy groups in 15-11 (PDB 1ly3) and the dibenzo[b,f]azepine ring in 12-4b. The active site geometry of pc and human (for which rat liver is a surrogate) enzymes is very similar, and the heavy-atom RMSDs for several inhibitors complexed to pc and human DHFR following rigid superposition are small (15-11: 1ly3 vs. 1boz, 0.4 Å; folate: 1cd2 vs 1drf, 0.7 Å; 33-2: 1daj vs. 1hfp, 0.6 Å; the latter two are reduced by half if the solvent-exposed glutamate side chain is excluded).

Figure A.1. DHFR inhibitors. Numbers for MTX, TMQ, PTX, 33-2, 12-4b show mapping of atoms to folate used for aligning compounds. GPB, THERM, THR: Alignment procedures for GPB and THERM are described in reference 6. The alignment procedure for THR is described in reference 7.
