HYPOTHETICAL PROTEINS OF MYCOBACTERIUM TUBERCULOSIS H37Rv AS DRUG TARGETS
نویسنده
چکیده
Hypothetical proteins often with unknown functions . Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv has a very large number of such proteins , which can be exploited as drug target as the bacterium became more virulent with developing antibiotic resistance to first line and second line of drugs . Some hypothetical proteins (290 proteins) were studied from different aspects related to find the druggable proteins . Results shown that some of it get good druggability score such as Rv2074, Rv2827c , Rv0295c which are worth to be subjected to further scheme of drug design such as docking or using other computational techniques .

Dataset of potential targets for Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv through comparative genome analysis
Mycobacterium tuberculosis is the causative agent of the disease, tuberculosis and H37Rv is the most studied clinical strain. We use comparative genome analysis of Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv and human for the identification of potential targets dataset. We used DEG (Database of Essential Genes) to identify essential genes in the H37Rv strain. The analysis shows that 628 of the 3989 genes ...
متن کاملComparative Genome and Network Centrality Analysis to Identify Drug Targets of Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv
Potential drug targets of Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv were identified through systematically integrated comparative genome and network centrality analysis. The comparative analysis of the complete genome of Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv against Database of Essential Genes (DEG) yields a list of proteins which are essential for the growth and survival of the pathogen. Those proteins whic...

Tuberculosis is an universal health problem worldwide. In Iraq the problem is aggravated by drug resistance. In Silico studies usually pave the way for more investigations of the real problem .On the other hand Mycobacterium tuberculosis does not lend itself for deep wet lab studies, therefore, In Silico studies must precede many aspects of experimental work. In Silico studies were carried out ...
متن کاملBiochemical characterization of PE_PGRS61 family protein of Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv reveals the binding ability to fibronectin
Objective(s): The periodic binding of protein expressed by Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv with the host cell receptor molecules i.e. fibronectin (Fn) is gaining significance because of its adhesive properties. The genome sequencing of M. tuberculosis H37Rv revealed that the proline-glutamic (PE) proteins contain polymorphic GC-rich repetitive sequences (PGRS) which have clinical importance i...

The sequencing of the Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) H37Rv genome has facilitated deeper insights into the biology of MTB, yet the functions of many MTB proteins are unknown. We have used sensitive profile-based search procedures to assign functional and structural domains to infer functions of gene products encoded in MTB. These domain assignments have been made using a compendium of sequenc...
