ABSTRACT
KRAS, a common human oncogene, has been recognized as a critical drug target in treating multiple cancers. After four decades of effort, one allosteric KRAS drug (Sotorasib) has been approved, inspiring more KRAS-targeted drug research. Here, we provide the features of KRAS binding pockets and ligand-binding characteristics of KRAS complexes using a structural systems pharmacology approach. Three distinct binding sites (conserved nucleotide-binding site, shallow Switch-I/II pocket, and allosteric Switch-II/α3 pocket) are characterized. Ligand-binding features are determined based on encoded KRAS-inhibitor interaction fingerprints. Finally, the flexibility of the three distinct binding sites to accommodate different potential ligands, based on MD simulation, is discussed. Collectively, these findings are intended to facilitate rational KRAS drug design.
