Drug repositioning is an important therapeutic strategy for treating breast cancer. Hsp90β chaperone is an attractive target for inhibiting cell progression. Its structure has a disordered and flexible linker region between the N-terminal and central domains. Geldanamycin was the first Hsp90β inhibitor to interact specifically at the N-terminal site. Owing to the toxicity of geldanamycin, we investigated the repositioning of ritonavir as an Hsp90β inhibitor, taking advantage of its proven efficacy against cancer. In this study, we used molecular modeling techniques to analyze the contribution of the Hsp90β linker region to the flexibility and interaction between the ligands geldanamycin, ritonavir, and Hsp90β. Our findings indicate that the linker region is responsible for the fluctuation and overall protein motion without disturbing the interaction between the inhibitors and the N-terminus. We also found that ritonavir established similar interactions with the substrate ATP triphosphate, filling the same pharmacophore zone.
