1.INTRODUCTION\n\nCancer is one of the leading causes of death worldwide,and it is expected that its incidence will increase in the follow-ing years [1].Currently,the development of target-baseddrugs has transformed cancer therapy in humans,and com-puter-aided drug design techniques have modified our ap-proaches for obtaining new candidates of drugs with time-saving and cheaper processes [2-8],  \nPeptidyl-prolyl cis-trans isomerase NIMA-interacting 1(Pinl)plays an important role in cancer development byisomerizing phosphorylated serine or threonine motifs adja-cent to proline residues (pSer/Thr-Pro motifs)[9-12].  \nARTICLEHTSTORY  \nReceived:June 26,2019  \nRevised:Septznber 11,20J9  \nAceypued.Octoher 10.20T9  \nDO₁:102174//5734699/5666797025714009  \nCrossMark  \nTargeting

proline residues.Pinlhas important roles in several cellular signaling pathways,consequently impacting the developmentof multiple iypes of cancers.  \nMethods:Based on the previously reported inhibitory activity of pentacyclic triterpenoids isolatedfrom the gum resin of Boswellia genus against Pinl,we designed a computational experiment us-ing molecular docking,pharmacophore filtering,and structural clustering allied to molecular dy-namics(MD)simulations and binding free energy calculations to explore the inhibitory activity ofnew triterpenoids against Pinl structure.  \nResults:Here,we report different computational evidence that triterpenoids from neem(Aza-dirachta indica A.Juss),such as 6-deacetylnimbinene,6-Oacetylnimbandiol,and nimbolide,repli-cate the binding mode of the Pinl substrate peptide,interacting with high affinity with the bindingsite and thus destabilizing the Pinl structure.  \nConclusions:Our results are supported by experimental dala,and provide interesting structural in-sights into their molecular mechanism of action,indicating that their structural scaffolds could beused as a start point to develop new inhibitors against Pin1,  \nKeywords:Cancer targeting,peptidyl-prolyl isomerase.triterpenoids.molecular modeling,natural products.virtual screening.  \nThe dysregulation of Pinl expression has a high impact oncancer development,and its overexpression is related to can-cer prognosis and treatment [13-17].Pinl overexpressionleads to the activation of over 42 oncogenes and growth fac-tors and inactivation of more than 20 tumor suppressors andgrowth inhibitors [18-28].The inhibition of Pinl leads to thedepletion of various molecular targets cncoded by oncogenes[29-31].  \nDifferent studies have also reported Pinl inhibitors,suchas juglone [32],PiB [33],elemonic acid |34],epigallocate-chin-3-gallate [35],dexamethasone-21-phosphate [36],bu-parvaquone [37].D-PEPTIDE [38,39]and AIl-Trans Retin-oic Acid(ATRA)[40].ATRA and D-PEPTIDE are structural-ly different,but both compounds bind to the Pinl active sitemimicking the interactions of the pSer/Thr-Pro motif.thenatural substrate of the isomerase[11,41].Although some ofthe known inhibitors act in vitro in nanomolar concentra-tions,the compounds are inactive or weakly active in cellsdue to the presence of negatively-charged phosphate or car-  \nboxylate groups that prevent the passage through the cellmembrane.In addition to the high side effects of these com-pounds,there exists a common
