Abstract

In previous literature, it was found that the activity of New Delhi Metallo-β-lactamase-1 (NDM-1) was inhibited by 2,6-dipicolinic acid (DPA) derivatives. To identify the mechanism of interaction between the inhibitors and NDM-1, molecular dynamics simulations were performed for the complex systems. Via the molecular modelling, inhibitors were found to be able bind to the region of catalytic activity of NDM-1. However, the detailed binding sites of the inhibitors differed with their structures. It was determined that His189, Lys211, Met248, Ser249, His250, and Ser251 are key residues for the binding of inhibitor 36 with NDM-1, and Asp124 is the only critical residue in the NDM-1-DPA complex. Furthermore, because of the interaction of the benzene ring in inhibitor 36 with the side chain of Lys211, inhibitor 36 can form 4 strong hydrogen bonds with protein. For the NDM-1-DPA complex, owing to the absence of the aniline group, DPA can only form a weak interaction with the residues around the binding site of NDM-1, except for Asp124, leading to a weaker inhibitory activity. Therefore, we believe that the strong interaction of the inhibitor with Lys211 results in effective inhibition, and the aniline group is the element required for the inhibitory activity.
