The src-homology 2 domain-containing phosphatase 2 (SHP2) is a human cytoplasmic protein tyrosine phosphatase that plays a crucial role in cellular signal transduction. Aberrant activation and mutations of SHP2 are associated with tumor growth and im...
SAR and QSAR in environmental research
Dec 20, 2024
A comprehensive computational strategy that combined QSAR modelling, molecular docking, and ADMET analysis was used to discover potential inhibitors for β-secretase 1 (BACE-1). A dataset of 1,138 compounds with established BACE-1 inhibitory activitie...
BACKGROUND: Tuberculosis is an infectious disease that has become endemic worldwide. The causative bacteria (Mtb) is targeted via several exciting drug targets. One newly discovered target is the Fatty Acyl-CoA synthase, which plays a significant ro...
Sphingosine kinases (SphKs) are a group of important enzymes that circulate at low micromolar concentrations in mammals and have received considerable attention due to the roles they play in a broad array of biological processes including apoptosis, ...
Selective inhibitors of sirtuin-2 (SIRT2) are increasingly recognized as potential therapeutics for cancer and neurodegenerative diseases. Derivatives of 5-((3-amidobenzyl)oxy)nicotinamides have been identified as some of the most potent and selectiv...
Type II secretion System has been increasingly recognized as a key driver of virulence in many pathogenic bacteria including Achromobacter xylosoxidans. ATPase GspE is the powerhouse of the T2SS. It powers the entire secretion process by binding with...
Human dihydroorotate dehydrogenase (hDHODH) is a flavin mononucleotide-dependent enzyme that can limit de novo pyrimidine synthesis, making it a therapeutic target for diseases such as autoimmune disorders and cancer. In this study, using the docking...
Generative machine learning models offer a novel strategy for chemogenomics and de novo drug design, allowing researchers to streamline their exploration of the chemical space and concentrate on specific regions of interest. In cases with limited inh...
Thymidylate kinase (TMK) is a pivotal enzyme in Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb), crucial for phosphorylating thymidine monophosphate (dTMP) to thymidine diphosphate (dTDP), thereby playing a critical role in DNA biosynthesis. Dysregulation or inhibi...
Xanthine oxidase (XO) inhibitory peptides can prevent XO-mediated hyperuricemia. Currently, QSAR about XO inhibitory peptides with different lengths remains to be enriched. Here, XO inhibitory peptides were obtained from porcine visceral proteins thr...
