In this study, mitoxantrone and its halogenated derivatives have been designed by density functional theory (DFT) to explore their structural and thermodynamical properties. The performance of these drugs was also evaluated to inhibit DNA topoisomerase type IIα (TOP2A) by molecular docking calculation. Noncovalent interactions play significant role in improving the performance of halogenated drugs. The combined quantum and molecular mechanics calculations revealed that CF3 containing drug shows better preference in inhibiting the TOP2A compared to other modified drugs.
在本研究中,通过密度泛函理论(DFT)设计了米托蒽醌及其卤代衍生物,以探索其结构和热力学性质。还通过分子对接计算评估了这些药物抑制DNA拓扑异构酶IIα(TOP2A)的性能。非共价相互作用在提高卤代药物的性能方面发挥着重要作用。量子力学与分子力学相结合的计算结果表明,与其他修饰药物相比,含CF3的药物在抑制TOP2A方面表现出更好的选择性。
