Lecture 20: Binding Free Energy Calculations Dr. Ronald M. Levy Statistical Thermodynamics

focus on the binding problem of protein-ligand systems. Statistical theory of non-covalent binding equilibria Computer models for computing free energy of binding Binding energy distribution analysis method Examples from our research group Center for Biophysics and Computational Biology, Outline

General chemical reaction: Very important type of “reaction”: bimolecular non-covalent binding R (sol) + L (sol) RL (sol) Small molecule dimerization/association Supramolecular complexes Protein-ligand binding Protein-protein binding/dimerization Protein-nucleic acids interactions... *Note*: We are implicitly assuming above that we can describe the system as being composed of 3 distinct chemical “species”, R, L, and RL (quasi- chemical description). If interactions between R and L are weak/non-specific then it would be more appropriate to treat the system as a non-ideal solution of R and L. Statistical Theory of Non-Covalent Binding Equilibria

From general theory of chemical reactions, for receptor-ligand system: Effective potential energy of solute i in solution.

If the solution is isotropic ( invariant upon rotation of solute), integrate analytically over rotational degrees of freedom (ignoring roto- vibarational couplings, OK at physiological temperatures). Internal coordinates When inserting into the expression for K b (T), Λ's cancel because We get: [Gilson et al. Biophysical Journal 72, (1997)]

In the complex, RL, the “external” coordinates (translations, rotations) of the ligand become internal coordinates of the complex. R L Position of the ligand relative to receptor frame Orientation of the ligand relative to receptor frame External coordinates of the ligand relative to receptor It is up to us to come up with a reasonable definition of “BOUND”. That is we need to define the RL species before we can compute its partition function. The binding constant will necessarily depend on this definition. Must match experimental reporting. If the binding is strong and specific the exact definition of the complexed state is often not significant.

It is convenient to introduce an “indicator” function for the complex: then: Next, define “binding energy” of a conformation of the complex: basically, change in effective energy for bringing ligand and receptor together at fixed internal conformation: +

In terms of binding energy: then: Now: we are not very good at computing partition functions. We are much better at computing ensemble averages:

To transform the expression for K b so that it looks like an average: multiply and divide by: then: or:

We can see that binding constant can be expressed in terms of an average of the exponential of the binding energy over the ensemble of conformations of the complex in which the ligand and the receptor are not interacting while the ligand is placed in the binding site. Standard free energy of binding: (analytic formulas) (numerical computation) Summary of Binding Free Energy Theory Binding energy: Binding Constant:

Interpretation in terms of binding thermodynamic cycle: RLR + L R(L) “Virtual” state in which ligand is in binding site without interacting with receptor Ligand and receptor in solution at concentration Cº Ligand bound to receptor in solution at concentration Cº Loss of translational, rotational freedom (to fit binding site definition) Binding while in receptor site (independent of concentration) BEDAM method and computer exercise will focus on the computation of by computer simulations.

Asynchronous Replica Exchange for Computational Grids Separate local file-based asynchronous exchanges and remote MD simulations Limited to large MD period (> 1 ps) but robust to failures of individual MD processes because no synchronizing process is required. Metroplis independence sampling approaching the infinite swapping limit (100s to 1000s swaps/cycle) Exchanges between all pairs of neighbors can be performed in a local CPU independent of MD jobs running remotely.
