Molecular dynamics simulations produce trajectories that correspond to vast amounts of structure when exploring biochemical processes. Extracting valuable information, e.g., important intermediate states and collective variables (CVs) that describe t...
Xanthine oxidase (XO) is a crucial enzyme in the development of hyperuricemia and gout. This study focuses on LWM and ALPM, two food-derived inhibitors of XO. We used molecular docking to obtain three systems and then conducted 200 ns molecular dynam...
Drosophila Ncd proteins are motor proteins that play important roles in spindle organization. Ncd and the tubulin dimer are highly charged. Thus, it is crucial to investigate Ncd-tubulin dimer interactions in the presence of ions, especially ions tha...
Cancer, as identified by the World Health Organization, stands as the second leading cause of death globally. Its intricate nature makes it challenging to study solely based on biological knowledge, often leading to expensive research endeavors. Whil...
