Electrostatic interactions for docking bovine testicular hyaluronidase 3D-model with chondroitin sulfate trimers and heparin tetramers

Abstract

Molecular docking 3D-model of bovine testicular hyaluronidase with glycosaminoglycan ligands was performed. Chondroitin sulfate trimer and heparin tetramer were used as ligands. Methods of computational chemistry were applied for elucidation of hyaluronidase functioning regulation, when heparin ligand inactivated biocatalyst and chondroitin sulfate ligand protected the enzyme structure. The eight binding sites on enzyme molecular surface were determined for glycosaminoglycan ligand coupling due to electrostatic interactions. Herewith there is the possibility for reversible and irreversible conformational alterations of 3D-model of enzyme. Suffusion of critical binding sites of hyaluronidase is sufficed for prevention of irreversible deformations of enzyme active site cave. The interaction of glycosaminoglycan ligands with hyaluronidase is determined by electrostatic forces mainly.
Key words: bovine testicular hyaluronidase, tertiary structure, glycosaminoglycan ligand, electrostatic interactions, docking, chondroitin sulfate, heparin, surface electrostatic enzyme potential, enzyme functioning regulation.
