In the present study, we have investigated complexes of CK2 protein kinase with halogenated inhibitors by means of the advanced semiempirical quantum mechanical (SQM) PM6 method (called PM6-DH2X), which describes various types of noncovalent interactions including halogen bonding well. The PM6-DH2X method provides reliable geometries of those CK2 protein kinase-inhibitor complexes involving halogen bonds that agree well with the X-ray crystal structures. When the Amber empirical potential is applied, this agreement becomes considerably worse. Similarly, the binding free energies determined by the PM6-DH2X SQM method are much closer to the experimental inhibition constants than those based on the Amber empirical potential.
