متن کاملMonoamine transporters: insights from molecular dynamics simulations
The human monoamine transporters (MATs) facilitate the reuptake of the neurotransmitters serotonin, dopamine, and norepinephrine from the synaptic cleft. Imbalance in monoaminergic neurotransmission is linked to various diseases including major depression, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, schizophrenia, and Parkinson's disease. Inhibition of the MATs is thus an important strategy for t...
متن کاملSynthesis novel bis-Coumarin derivatives as potential acetylcholinestrase inhibitors: An in vitro, molecular docking, and molecular dynamics simulations study
Alzheimer's disease is an irreversible and progressive brain disorder that slowly destroys memory and thinking skills and ultimately the ability to do the simplest things and can lead to death. Cholinesterases (ChEs) play an important role in controlling cholinergic transmission, and subsequently, by inhibiting CHEs, acetylcholine levels in the brain are elevated. Coumarins have been shown to e...
متن کاملOrientation of fluorescent lipid analogue BODIPY-PC to probe lipid membrane properties: insights from molecular dynamics simulations.
Single-molecule fluorescence measurements have been used to characterize membrane properties, and recently showed a linear evolution of the fluorescent lipid analogue BODIPY-PC toward small tilt angles in Langmuir-Blodgett monolayers as the lateral surface pressure is increased. In this work, we have performed comparative molecular dynamics (MD) simulations of BODIPY-PC in DPPC (dipalmitoylphos...
متن کاملInsights into channel dysfunction from modelling and molecular dynamics simulations
Developments in structural biology mean that the number of different ion channel structures has increased significantly in recent years. Structures of ion channels enable us to rationalize how mutations may lead to channelopathies. However, determining the structures of ion channels is still not trivial, especially as they necessarily exist in many distinct functional states. Therefore, the use...
