Acetyl-coenzyme A carboxylase (ACC) and diacylglycerol acyltransferase 2 (DGAT2) are recognized as potential therapeutic targets for nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). Inhibitors targeting ACC and DGAT2 have exhibited the capacity to reduce he...
Protein structures can provide invaluable information, both for reasoning about biological processes and for enabling interventions such as structure-based drug development or targeted mutagenesis. After decades of effort, 17% of the total residues i...
DGAT1 plays a crucial controlling role in triglyceride biosynthetic pathways, which makes it an attractive therapeutic target for obesity. Thus, development of DGAT1 inhibitors with novel chemical scaffolds is desired and important in the drug discov...
