Structural Biology, Molecular Modelling & Drug Design

Experience : 22 years Research : Rathore serves as the Head of the Department of Bioinformatics since 2018. He obtained PhD (1991-99) in Biophysics at the Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore on de novo peptide design. He worked as a Postdoctoral Fellow at the University of Texas (Medical Branch), Galveston, USA on mini-protein design and Protein Crystallography of Catabolite Gene Activator (CAP/CRP) Protein. He served as the first Dean of the Schools of Earth, Biological and Environmental Sciences during 2016-19. Earlier, he worked in Schrödinger Inc.(USA), University of Hyderabad, TIFR and other places. He is an adviser to IBCB Vizag, and also few pharmaceutical companies. Rathore has extensively lectured and provided hands-on training in computational modeling and molecular drug discovery area at India and abroad. His main interests are Natural-product based drug discovery, design of inhibitors for Acetylcholinestaerse (AChE) for Alzheimer disorder and SARS-CoV-2 MPRO, QM/MM-based Free Energy Perturbation for lead optimizations & computational de novo design of peptides.

Research Highlights

The research is mainly focussed towards the following areas:
  • Natural product-based drug discovery. Recently developed MedPServer tool, that combine shape screening with pharmacophore search aims to accelerate the discovery (Chem Biol Drug Design, 2019; Heliyon, 2020)
  • Discovery of Acetylcholinesterease (AChE) inhibitors. New synthetic and natural leads have been identified that demonstrate activity higher than marketed Alzheimer drug Donepezil (Pharmacol Rep. 2020; J Biomol Struct Dyn. 2020)
  • SARS-CoV-2 MPRO inhibitor design: Recent study suggests that phenylbenzopyrone of flavonoids could serve as a potential scaffold to prevent SARS- CoV-2 replication by inhibiting MPRO Main Protease (Curr Pharm Biotechnol. 2021)
  • De novo design of Peptide Library – Conformation search combined with Deep learning could be a potential method for de novo design of peptide library as well as for ab initio structure prediction.
  • Free energy perturbation (FEP) for accurate binding affinity prediction: The QM/MM-based FEP has been shown to demonstrate highest accuracy of binding affinity prediction against fructose-1,6-bisphasphatase (J Comp Chem. 2009; Curr Pharm Des., 2013; 2014)
