http://purl.uniprot.org/citations/28236030http://www.w3.org/2000/01/rdf-schema#comment"Cathepsin S has been demonstrated to play a crucial role in the remodeling of extracellular matrix proteins such as elastin and collagen, which in turn contribute to the structural integrity of the cardiovascular wall. Atherosclerotic lesions, aneurysm formation, plaque rupture, thrombosis, and calcification are some of the cardiovascular disorders related to cathepsin S. A highly selective inhibitor of human as well as animal cathepsin S, RO5444101, was recently reported to attenuate the progression of atherosclerotic lesions. Here, we attempted to gain insight into the molecular mechanism of action of RO5444101 on cathepsin S by performing molecular docking and molecular dynamics (MD) simulation studies. The results of our studies correlate well with relevant reported experimental data and potentially explain the selectivity of this inhibitor for cathepsin S rather than cathepsin L1/L, cathepsin L2/V, and cathepsin K, which share conserved catalytic sites and have sequence similarities of 49%, 50%, and 55%, respectively, with respect to cathepsin S. In contrast to those closely related cathepsins, 20 ns MD simulation data reveal that the overall interaction of cathepsin S with RO5444101 is more stable and involves more protein-molecule interactions than the interactions of the inhibitor with the other cathepsins. This study therefore considerably improves our understanding of the molecular mechanism responsible for cathepsin S inhibition and facilitates the identification of potential novel selective inhibitors of cathepsin S."xsd:string
