Popis: Acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and butyrylcholinesterase (BChE) are considered important target for drug design against Alzheimer's disease. In the present study in silico analysis; theoretical analysis of biointerface between ligand and interacting amino acid residues of proteins; and in vitro analysis of enzyme inhibition kinetics were carried out to delineate the inhibitory property of amine compounds against AChE/BChE. High throughput virtual screening of amine compounds identified three compounds (2-aminoquinoline, 2-aminobenzimidazole and 2-amino-1-methylbenzimidazole) that best interacted with AChE/BChE. Molecular docking analysis revealed the interaction of these compounds in the active site gorge of AChE/BChE, in particular with amino acid residues present in the peripheral anionic site. Molecular dynamics simulation confirmed the stable binding of these compounds with AChE/BChE. Binding energy calculated through MMGBSA method identified the non-covalent interactions (electrostatic and Van der Waals interactions) have contributed to the stable binding of the amine compounds with the AChE/BChE. Biointerface between amine compounds and AChE/BChE were visualized through Hirshfeld surface analysis. The inter-fragment interaction energies for the possible contacts between amine compounds and amino acid residues were carried out for the first time. All the amine compounds showed mixed-type of inhibition with moderate Ki value in in vitro analysis.
