Article Abstract

Rivaroxaban (RIV) is a direct oral anticoagulant (DOAC) targeting activated coagulation factor X (FXa). An earlier study reported the F174A mutant of FXa resistant to a RIV-like inhibitor, Apixaban. In current study, the detailed molecular mechanism of the resistance has been explored by molecular dynamics simulations on the impaired interactions between RIV and FXa in the damaged S4 pocket of F174A mutant. Besides, an unexpected relative stable binding mode of S1'S1 was revealed, which required dynamic motions of Gln192 and Gln61 to allow the morpholinone moiety of RIV to shift into the S1' pocket and form strong interactions. These dynamic motions of RIV and critical residues might be important in drug design for direct inhibitors of coagulation factors.

The ryanodine receptors (RyRs) represent an optimal target for insecticide development. To explore novel structures of RyRs agonists, a series of compounds containing 1,2,4-oxadiazole were designed and synthesized based on the RyRs structure. The compounds were confirmed by H and C nuclear magnetic resonance as well as high-resolution mass spectrometry.

The transcription factor Six1 and its co-activator Eya1 play central and varied roles during the development of sensory neurons derived from the cranial placodes in vertebrates. Previous studies suggested that these proteins promote both the maintenance of proliferative neuronal progenitors and neuronal differentiation. Context-specific interactions of Six1 and/or Eya1 with different cofactors are likely to contribute to the activation of distinct target genes during different stages of placodal neurogenesis.
