Computational study on novel natural inhibitors targeting BCL2.

ABSTRACT: Ideal lead compounds and candidate drugs with inhibitory effect on BCL2 were screened from ZINC database, which laid a foundation for drug development and compound improvement of drug treatment for diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLCBL). Identification of potential BCL2 inhibitors by computer-aided virtual screening. Libdock was applied to 17,931 compounds and the top 20 were selected for further analysis. Selected compounds were performed absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion (ADME) and toxicity prediction. The binding affinity between the selected ligands and BCL2 was confirmed by Molecular docking. The new natural compounds, ZINC00000255131 and ZINC00013298233, were found to bind closely with BCL2. Furthermore, they all scored lower in ames-induced mutagenicity, rodent carc
