ABSTRACT
Known off-target interactions frequently cause predictable drug side-effects (e.g., ß1-antagonists used for heart disease, risk ß2-mediated bronchospasm). Computer-aided drug design would improve if the structural basis of existing drug selectivity was understood. A mutagenesis approach determined the ligand-amino acid interactions required for ß1-selective affinity of xamoterol and nebivolol, followed by computer-based modeling to provide possible structural explanations. 3H-CGP12177 whole cell binding was conducted in Chinese hamster ovary cells stably expressing human ß1, ß2, and chimeric ß1/ß2-adrenoceptors (ARs). Single point mutations were investigated in transiently transfected cells. Modeling studies involved docking ligands into three-dimensional receptor structures and performing molecular dynamics simulations, comparing interaction frequencies between apo and holo structures of ß1 and ß2-ARs. From these observations, an ICI89406 derivative was investigated that gave further insights into selectivity. Stable cell line studies determined that transmembrane 2 was crucial for the ß1-selective affinity of xamoterol and nebivolol. Single point mutations determined that the ß1-AR isoleucine (I118) rather than the ß2 histidine (H93) explained selectivity. Studies of other ß1-ligands found I118 was important for ICI89406 selective affinity but not that for betaxolol, bisoprolol, or esmolol. Modeling studies suggested that the interaction energies and solvation of ß1-I118 and ß2-H93 are factors determining selectivity of xamoterol and ICI89406. ICI89406 without its phenyl group loses its high ß1-AR affinity, resulting in the same affinity as for the ß2-AR. The human ß1-AR residue I118 is crucial for the ß1-selective affinity of xamoterol, nebivolol, and ICI89406 but not all ß1-selective compounds. SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENT Some ligands have selective binding affinity for the human ß1 versus the ß2-adrenoceptor; however, the molecular/structural reason for this is not known. The transmembrane 2 residue isoleucine I118 is responsible for the selective ß1-binding of xamoterol, nebivolol, and ICI89406 but does not explain the selective ß1-binding of betaxolol, bisoprolol, or esmolol. Understanding the structural basis of selectivity is important to improve computer-aided ligand design, and targeting I118 in ß1-adrenoceptors is likely to increase ß1-selectivity of drugs.
