Asciminib, a highly selective non-ATP competitive inhibitor of BCR-ABL, has demonstrated to be a promising drug for patients with chronic myeloid leukemia. It is a pity that two resistant mutations (1502L and V468F) have been found during the clinical trial, which is a challenge for the curative effect of Asciminib. In this study, molecular dynamics simulations and molecular mechanics generalized Born surface area (MM-GB/SA) calculations were performed to investigate the molecular mechanism of Asciminib resistance induced by the two mutants. The obtained results indicate that the mutations have adversely influence on the binding of Asciminib to BCR-ABL, as the nonpolar contributions decline in the two mutants. In addition, 1502L mutation causes alpha-helix I' (alpha I') to shift away from the helical bundle composed of alpha E, alpha F, and alpha H, making the distance between alpha I' and Asciminib increased. For V468F mutant, the side chain of Phe468 occupies the bottom of the myristoyl pocket (MP), which drives Asciminib to shift toward the outside of MP. Our results provide the molecular insights of Asciminib resistance mechanism in BCR-ABL mutants, which may help the design of novel inhibitors. (C) 2019 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
