Abstract

Background: JAK2 inhibitors have been proposed as a new therapeutic option for thalassemia therapy. The objective of this study was to discover the key structural features for improving 2-aminopyrimidine derivatives as potential JAK2 inhibitors. Materials & methods: Quantitative structure-activity relationship (QSAR) approaches (hologram QSAR and comparative molecular similarity indices analysis), molecular dynamicssimulations, binding energy calculations and pharmacokinetic predictions were employed. Results: Reliable QSAR models, binding mode and binding interactions of JAK2 inhibitors were obtained and these obtained results were used as the key information for rational design of highly potent JAK2 inhibitors. Conclusion: The concept of new potential JAK2 inhibitors integrated from the obtained results was proved, producing two newly designed compounds, D01 and D02, with potential for use as JAK2 inhibitors.
