A three-dimensional model of the human neuropeptide Y(NPY)Y1 receptor (hY1) was constructed, energy refined and used to simulate molecular receptor interactions of the peptide ligands NPY, [L31, P34]NPY, peptide YY (PYY) and pancreatic polypeptide (PP), and of the nonpeptide antagonist R-N2-(diphenylacetyl)-N-(4-hydroxyphenyl)methyl-argininamide (BIBP3226) and its S-enantiomer BIBP3435. The best complementarity in charges between the receptor and the peptides, and the best structural accordance with experimental studies, was obtained with amino acid 1-4 of the peptides interacting with Asp194, Asp200, Gln201, Phe202 and Trp288 in the receptor. Arg33 and Arg35 of the peptides formed salt bridges with Asp104 and Asp287, respectively, while Tyr36 interacted in a binding pocket formed by Phe41, Thr42, Tyr100, Asn297, His298 and Phe302. Calculated electrostatic potentials around NPY and hY1 molecules indicated that ligand binding is initiated by electrostatic interactions between a highly positive region in the N- and C-terminal parts of the peptides, and a negative region in the extracellular receptor domains. Molecular dynamics simulations of NPY and BIBP3226 interactions with the receptor indicated rigid body motions of TMH5 and TMH6 upon NPY binding as mechanisms of receptor activation, and that BIBP3226 may act as an antagonist by constraining these motions.
