cassette (ABC) efflux transporter protein. Drugs inhibiting BCRP suffer activity alteration

due to sequence variants. It is imperative to investigate role of mutant variants using

structure based aspects of drug binding.

Method: In presentwork,we included single nucleotide polymorphisms like F208S, S248P and

F431L in BCRP structure and evaluated their role in alteration of drug binding affinities using

computational approaches. Comparativemodeling of BCRP 3D structurewas achieved using

various tools available followed by structure validation. Mutagenesis and its impact by SNPs

was attained in 3D structure of BCRP. A set of selected and established BCRP inhibitors were

further docked into binding site to record the drug resistance in mutant variants.

1. Introduction

2. Methods

Breast Cancer Resistance Protein (BCRP) is amembrane-bound

protein andbelongs to theATP-binding cassette family. BCRP is

also called as ABCG2 which is present in many normal tissues

and solid tumors including bloodebrain barrier, placenta, liver,

small intestine, adrenal gland, testis and stem cells.1 BCRP

deliberate drug resistance to many anti-cancer agents such as

irinotecan, topotecan, tyrosine kinase inhibitors and mitox-

antrone. BCRP is ATP-binding cassette (ABC) efflux transporter

that deliberatesmultidrug resistance in breast cancer and also

plays an important role in the absorption, distribution and

elimination of drugs.1,2 It is of elementary significance to

investigate the function and binding site of BCRP protein. BCRP

contains 655-amino acid with a single nucleotide binding

domain (NBD) and six transmembrane domains (TMD). BCRP is

a half-transporter, and thus requires at least two NBDs to

function as a drug efflux pump. Hence, functional BCRP exists

as either homodimers or homo-multimers.3,4 3D structure of

BCRP has not been solved in Protein Data Bank yet. Hence the

aimof thecurrent study is to construct the3Dstructureof BCRP

to investigate the interaction of ligands of BCRP in wild and

mutated models in order to define possible binding sites.

Protein sequence has been retrieved from UniProtKB/Swiss-

Prot.5 Present study used Homology modeling methods to

construct the 3D structure of Human BCRP. Human BCRP ho-

mology model was built using MODELLER (Figs. 2 and 3), a

Computational algorithm for Protein structural assessment.6

The template protein was searched through Delta Blast algo-

rithm against PDB Database which maintain by RCSB.7 High

resolution of Crystal Structure of the ATP-bound Escherichia

coli MalK (PBD ID: 1Q12)8 and Staphylococcus aureus permease

protein SAV1866 (PDB ID: 2HYD)9 were used as a template to

model nucleotide binding domain (NBD) and transmembrane

(TM) domains respectively. It is mandatory to convert the

target sequence into MODELLER format. MODELLER requires

the sequence in PIR format in order to be read. The FASTAwas

converted to PIR using Readseq, an algorithm developed by

EMBL.6 Structure similarity has been performed by using the

profile.build(), an in-built command in MODELLER.10 The

result has been then compared with Blast result. The build_-

profile.py has been used for the local dynamic algorithm to

identify homologous sequences against target BCRP sequence.

At the end of this process a log file has been generated which

ate sequence based on secondary structure using DSSP and

is named build_profile.log which contains errors and warn-

ings in log file.11e13

3. Results and discussions

3.1. BCRP structure modeling

The result generated here was the same templates 1Q12 and

2HYD, that was earlier obtained fromDelta blast alignment. In

order to ratify the conserved secondary structure profiles, a

multiple sequence alignment program DSSP14 and PSIPRED15

was utilized which identified the corresponding position of

amino acids in the query sequence of BCRP and template

Protein (Fig. 1). This is a confirmatory statement to build the

strong alignment in homology modeling.6

For a comparative investigation, Homology Modeling also

been performed using various softwares like SPDBV, MOD-

ELLER, CPH, Phyre, PS2, 3Djigsaw, Esypred3D etc. Structure

validation has been studies using Ramachandran Plot16 by

Procheck.17 Ramachandran Plot shows the MODELLER which

is the bettermodel have out of 428 obtained amino acids 90.1%

residues are in core region, 8.2 are in additional allowed re-

gion, 1.1 are in generous allowed region and 0.6% are in dis-

allowed region (Table 1).

After satisfactory validation using Ramachandran dia-

gram, it is mandatory to analyze main chain and side chain

parameters using Procheck tool for structure validation. In

retrieval and perusal of parametric values from main chain

validation, it was confirmed that the ratio of % of residues

(>90%) to resolution in angstrom (2.0) fits in the expected

place. Standard deviation to resolution ratio touches the bot-

tom values of the region indicating acceptance of the model

(Fig. 4). Bad contacts in themodels structure remained below 5

per 100 residues which again add up to the better quality of

homologymodel. In addition, zeta angle standard deviation in

range and G-factor near 0 values suggests appreciable protein

structure quality (Fig. 5). Moving to side chain parameters,

Chi-1 gauche minus and Chi-1 Trans parameters fell below

required belt of optimal region and thus suggest improved

modeling efforts related to side chain minimization. Various

side chain parameters confirmed BETTER status in graphical

presentation view and thus the protein 3D structure model

retains good quality of main chain and side chain parameters

(Table 2).

3.2. Mutagenesis and mutational assessment of HumanBCRP

Mutational investigation of BCRP has been carried out from

various literature. Natural variants and Non-natural variants

have been obtained from literature and experimental infor-

mation. The transport activity of Q141K would be expected to

be lesser as compared to BCRP wild-type. BCRP Wild-type

generally had lower plasma levels of BCRP substrate drugs

than Q141 variant.18 A systematic study of 16 natural variants

of BCRP showed that the variants Q126stop, F208S, S248P,

E334stop, and S441N were defective in porphyrin transport,

whereas F489L displayed approximately 10% of the transport

activity of wild-type BCRP19 (Fig. 6). PolyPhen-2 software has

been used for selecting the effective mutagenesis for the

present study.20,21

PolyPhen-2 reports that out of all the 16 SNPs, G51C, F208S,

S248P, R482G, R482T and F431L are probably and possibly

damaging with an average score of 0.630 (sensitivity: 0.64;

specificity: 0.63). HenceMutagenesis has been carried out only

for the above mentioned Variants. Mutagenesis model was

constructed using TRITON,22 a Linux based graphic software

package for In silico construction of protein mutants (Fig. 7).

Mutagenesis has been carried out only for F208S, S248P and

F431L as the remaining mutants are not covered in the

sequence of homology model.

3.3. Molecular docking studies of BCRP

Flexible molecular docking studies using Molegro Virtual

Docker (MVD) produced appreciable results in terms of se-

lective interactions with wild BCRP and its mutant (F208S,

S248P and F431L) variants. 26 Inhibitors, selected by simi-

larity structure search from BindingDB and subsequently

from Pubchem database, were docked in the inhibitor bind-

ing site of BCRP inhibitors. Results of molecular docking are

Detailed report comprising MolDock score, rerank score and

RMSD values of docked inhibitors have been produced in

Table 3 below.

Docking scores are mathematical calculations to quantify

force-fields between binding site of receptors and interacting

ligands. For qualitative discussion, we should identify partic-

ipation of atoms and groups of ligand with those

Effect of mutagenesis in BCRP and drug response can be

clearly recorded from below interactions and binding affinity

scores of inhibitors with respect to wild and mutant isoforms.

Alteration of a single amino acid via mutagenesis introduces

major changes in spatial arrangement of amino acid in 3D

structure, thereafter, leading to response variation in different

genotypes. It is clear from Figs. 8 and 9 that single nucleotide

polymorphism (SNP) in BCRP has completely altered the in-

teractions among binding site and ligand atoms. There are

very few amino acids repeated in wild and mutated isoforms

to get involved in H-bond and steric interactions.

4. Conclusion

Extensive computational approaches resulted in successful

molecular modeling of BCRP structure using a set of compar-

ativemodeling tools. Satisfactory structure validation allowed

BCRP submission to mutagenesis including F208S, S248P and

F431Lmutant variation in its wild structure. A set of inhibitors

was docked subsequently with wild-type and all threemutant

isoforms to record impact of mutagenesis on drug binding

response. Present work clearly indicates profound role of

genotypic variants of BCRP responsible for altered drug ac-

tivity in different patients. We suggest an imperative and

extensive laboratory research on BCRP and its variants

developing drug resistance against established drugs in pa-

tients. Present work confers relation of mutant variants with

drug resistance in breast cancer patients.
