Area of Science:

  • Biochemistry
  • Chemical Biology
  • Drug Discovery

Background:

  • Bioactive small molecules are crucial for therapeutics and biological pathway exploration.
  • Identifying the specific targets of small molecules remains a significant challenge in drug discovery.
  • A comprehensive understanding of small molecule-target interactions is vital for both early-stage research tools and late-stage drug candidates.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To introduce a novel method for assessing small molecule interactions with a large number of biological targets.
  • To provide a technique that does not require modification of the small molecule or surface immobilization.
  • To enhance the understanding of small molecule mechanisms of action and potential liabilities.

Main Methods:

  • Size-exclusion chromatography for target identification (SEC-TID) was developed to detect ligand-macromolecular interactions.
  • SEC-TID was applied using a library of approximately 1000 purified proteins from the Protein Data Bank (PDB).
  • The method accurately and reproducibly identifies interactions for small molecules targeting nucleic acids and various protein classes.

Main Results:

  • SEC-TID identified tankyrase 1 and 2 as efficacy targets for the Wnt inhibitor XAV939.
  • Novel interactions were discovered for the tumor-vascular disrupting agent vadimezan/ASA404 with farnesyl pyrophosphate synthase.
  • The diuretic mefruside was found to interact with carbonic anhydrase XIII.

Conclusions:

  • SEC-TID is a powerful method for comprehensive target profiling of small molecules.
  • This technique can significantly improve the understanding of drug mechanisms and identify potential off-target effects.
  • The method holds promise for advancing drug discovery pipelines by providing a detailed view of druggable target interactions.
