Dr. Kumbhare Manoj R. discusses enzyme inhibition in drug discovery. There are two main approaches to drug discovery - target-based and physiology-based. For the past 20 years, the target-based approach of developing drugs that affect a specific target has been dominant. Enzymes are excellent targets for drug development due to their essential roles and the suitability of their active sites for inhibitor interactions. Many top-selling drugs are enzyme inhibitors that work through reversible or irreversible inhibition mechanisms. The development of ACE inhibitors to control hypertension is provided as an example of a successful clinical application of enzyme inhibition.
This document discusses genomics, proteomics, bioinformatics, pharmacogenomics, and the human genome project. It provides information on how genetic polymorphisms can influence drug disposition by affecting metabolizing enzymes and transporters. The human genome project mapped the entire human genome sequence to further the goals of personalized medicine based on an individual's genetic profile. Single nucleotide polymorphisms are particularly important for understanding how individuals respond differently to drugs.

3. INTRODUCTION
Drug : A drug is an agent which modifies a drug target in order to bring about a
change in the functionality of that target. Drugs may reduce or accelerate target
activity.
Drug targets : Drug targets are macromolecules that have a binding site onto which
the drug fits or bind (by intermolecular bonds)
3
5. TARGETS FOR ANTICANCER DRUG DEVELOPMENT
Molecularly targeted agents proved ineffective
Efficacy or toxicity concerns.
Goal: Complete eradication of disease.
30% of research focus on finding kinase inhibitors.
Tubulin/microtubule, cancer stem cells and MDR pathways are hot targets.

7. NUCLEIC ACIDS AS TARGETS FOR ANTICANCER ACTIVITY
Nucleic acids are naturally occurring chemical compounds that serve as the primary
information-carrying molecules in cells.
Important role in directing protein synthesis
They determine the inherited characteristics of every living thing.
Drugs which act on the nucleic acid targets contains a aromatic ring that slips into the
DNA/RNA of cancer cells and distort its structure.
One of the most important anticancer drug acting on DNA is called either adriamycin or
doxorubicin.
Other examples are mitomycin c, ifosfamide, bleomycin (antibiotic) and vitravene.
7
10. ENZYMES AS TARGET FOR ANTICANCER DRUG DEVELOPMENT
Enzymes are body’s catalysts agents that speed up a chemical reaction without being consumed
themselves. Without them the cells chemical reaction would either be too slow or not take place at all.
The active site of an enzyme has to be on or near the surface of the enzymes if the substrate has to
reach it.
The amino acid present in the active site play an important role in the enzyme function, drugs which
target enzymes bind on this active site and deactivate the enzyme. so that further reaction due to
enzymes can not be take place.
10
14. HORMONES AS TARGET FOR ANTICANCER DRUGS
Hormones are proteins or substances made by the body that help to control certain
types of cells work.
Hormone therapy
Cancers depending on hormones
Different from surgery and radiation therapy

24. CONCLUSION
Cancer is a multifactorial disease and so far single target approach for its complete eradication proved
in-effective. Cancer cells develop multiple and complex mechanisms to evade the drug induced
cytotoxicity So, a better understanding of the resistance mechanisms is crucial for the success of
chemotherapy.
Instead of targeting only one target multitargeted system should be chosen.
Tyrosine kinase is the most potent and recently used target for the anticancer drug development.
Whereas, other therapies like gene therapy and monoclonal antibodies have selective role at the cancer
cell target only so their use for cancer treatment is preferred.
