Received on: ; Revised on: ; Accepted on: ABSTRACT Credible role in metastasis and over expression in invasive tumors made Focal adhesions tyrosine kinase [FAK] a target for the development of anticancer drugs. Cancers of the thyroid, prostate, cervix, colon, rectum, oral epithelium and ovary have shown increased in FAK levels. In search for new drugs structure-based design is an important technique applied currently in order to speed up the lead finding and optimization In this study, Molecular modeling and docking analysis were used to predict and understand interactions between Focal Adhesion Kinase and twenty four compounds of 3,4 dihydropyrimidones. 3BZ3 atomic coordinates of Focal Adhesion Kinase was retrieved from protein data bank (PDB). All ligands were drawn by software chemsketch. Molegro virtual docker program that predicted interactions in terms of Dock score. The approach is applicable in engineering 3D structures of enzymatic models, and studying interactions of active site residues with ligands show that the three compounds: it is concluded that that 5-(1H-benzimidazol-2-yl)-4-(4-hydroxy-3-methoxyphenyl)-6- methyl-3,4-dihydropyrimidine-2(1h)-one, 5-(1H-benzimidazol-2-yl)-4-(4- and 5-(1Hbenzimidazol-2-yl)-4-(1H-indol-3-yl)-6-methyl-3,4- could be a potent anticancer target molecule against Focal adhesions tyrosine kinase which may be worth for further clinical trials. KEYWORDS: Anti-cancer, Focal adhesions tyrosine kinase, Molecular docking, Interactions, Molegro virtual docker. ITRODUCTIO The cell surface and the extracellular matrix are interceded by Focal adhesions. Intracellular signalling from focal adhesions alters cell adhesion, migration, proliferation, differentiation, and survival in response to signal in the extracellular milieu. Credible role in metastasis and over expression in invasive tumors made Focal adhesions tyrosine kinase [FAK] a target for the development of anticancer drugs 1. Increased FAK mra and protein level were observed in tumor tissue when compared to normal tissue which is revealed by real-time PCR analysis of colorectal carcinoma and liver metastases 2. Cancers of the thyroid, prostate, cervix,colon, rectum, oral epithelium and ovary have shown increased in FAK levels.in few cancer cell lines amplification of the FAK gene is reported. cells derived from head and neck cancer possessed gains in gene copy number 3. kinase or calcium-dependent protein tyrosine kinase. It is articulated in most tissues and cell types. It is evolutionarily potted in mammalian species as well as lower eukaryotic organisms. Increased cancer cell motility, invasiveness and proliferation is related with increased FAK expression in tumor cell. secretion and inhibition of cell migration, invasion and proliferation is reduced by inhibition of FAK function 4. Conventionally in drug research serendipity occupied a key role. ew receptor agonists and antagonists were designed by using neurotransmitters and hormones as templates. In search for new drugs structure-based design is an important technique applied currently in order to speed up the lead finding and optimization 5.

The interacting residues surrounding the ligand within 3.5 A distance are Met 184, Gln 182 and Gln 161 respectively.all chemical structures were drawn using chem sketch software and all the files were converted to PDB file format. Protein target was downloaded from the PDB(Protein Data Bank). The protein PDB I.D is 3bz3.Active site in protein target were determined from the software. Docking of protein with dihydropyrimidine derivatives were carried out using Molegro software. H R H Figure 1. ligand bind with Focal adhesion tyrosine kinase enzyme Mol Dock Score scoring function was employed to predict the binding energy for active site residue-ligand interactions and docking studies computed for all ligands using Molegro virtual docker program that predicted interactions in terms of Dock score. All calculations were done on a Intel core I7 laptop with windows seven configuration. Docking was performed by using Molegro Virtual Docker (MVD) software package. MVD performs flexible ligand docking, so the optimal geometry of the ligand will be determined during the docking. To obtain better potential binding sites in the Focal adhesion tyrosine kinase enzyme (PDB ID: 3bz3), a maximum of five cavities was detected using default parameters. RESULTS AD DISCUSSIO Figure 2.

COCLUSIO In this study, the molecular docking was applied to correlate its docking score with the activity of a 3,4 dihydro pyrimidone derivatives.the docking studies provided good insights into the binding of pyrimidine derivatives at the molecular level,with the aim of rendering the more selective human tyrosine kinase inhibitors. Thio analogues are more potent than the other analogues. pyrimidinyl carboxylates were found to interact with at least one of the amino acid residue of the active binding site.it was clearly understood from the hydrogen bonding mentioned. 5-(1H-benzimidazol-2-yl)-4-(4-hydroxy-3- methoxyphenyl)-6-methyl-3,4-dihydropyrimidine-2(1h)-one had highest moldoc score of kcal/mol against 3bz3 (PDB ID) in docking analysis. Docking studies confirm that the main interaction of Focal adhesion tyrosine kinase enzyme Hydrogen bond and Hydrophobic interactions with the binding pockets made by H of benzimidazole and H and Carbonyl dihydropyrimidones of the ligands. This information has potential implications to understand the mechanism of Focal adhesion tyrosine kinase enzyme related enzymatic inhibition reactions, and also applicable in the prediction of more effective inhibitors and engineering 3D structures of other enzymes as well. Hence, it is concluded that that 5-(1H-benzimidazol-2-yl)-4- (4-hydroxy-3-methoxyphenyl)-6-methyl-3,4-dihydropyrimidine-2(1H)- one, 5-(1H-benzimidazol-2-yl)-4-(4- and 5-(1H-benzimidazol-2-yl)-4-(1H-indol- 3-yl)-6-methyl-3,4- could be a potent anti-cancer target molecule against Focal adhesion tyrosine kinase enzyme which may be worth for further clinical trials. In this study, computations on the interactions at the active site of Focal adhesion tyrosine kinase enzyme were carried out for twenty four ligands. In future, it may be necessary to explore the development of potential new Focal adhesion tyrosine kinase enzyme inhibitor drugs for treating cancer. The present study shall help in rational drug design and synthesis of new selective Focal adhesion tyrosine kinase enzyme inhibitors with predetermined affinity and activity and provides valuable information for the understanding of interactions between Focal adhesion tyrosine kinase enzyme and the novel 3,4 dihydropyrimidones. Hence we concluded that the Pyrimidine derivative is one of the Tyrosine kinase inhibitor. By using computational approaches derivatives designed showed good interactions with 3bz3 protein.
