TRAF2 docking with related proteins in silico studies.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Using the protein-protein docking program, this study investigates the relationship between TRAF2 and its related proteins and the diversity within the 3D structures of TRAF2s. TRAF2 exists in monomer, trimer, and hexamer forms and it can combine with a number of proteins. Through comparative analysis we found that TRAF2(122), TRAF2(22), TRAF2(21740), TRAF2(2), TRAF2( 22ABC), and TRAF2(Phyre) perform very close homoousia in docking with the same group of ligands, though these TRAF2s come from different sources. The TRAF2-related proteins of cluster 1 change docking values strongly from top to bottom. The TRAF2- related proteins of clusters 2 and 3 have acceptable variation of the docking values. In consideration of the amino acid percentage, TRAF2-related proteins of cluster 2 represent appropriate docking values.

Effects of Salinispora derived metabolites against multidrug resistance, an in-silico study
Background: Multidrug resistance (MDR) is known to defeat most chemotherapies as one of the main anticancer strategies. The role of overexpression/overactivation of ABC transporters, especially P-glycoprotein (P-gp), in the development of chemotherapy has long been demonstrated. Salinispora is a marine actinomycete genus known for the production of novel bioactive metabolites. Methods: In this...
متن کاملMolecular Docking and Rare Codons Evaluation in the Luciola Lateralis luciferase, an in Silico Study
Luciferase enzymes are involved in the bioluminescence reaction (light emission by living organisms). The bioluminescence process is a widespread phenomenon in the Nature. These enzymes are identified in some domains of life, but the luciferases from lampyrid genus are considered of for biological applications. The molecular cloning of a new type of firefly luciferase from Luciola lateralis was...
متن کاملMolecular docking studies on xanthohumol derivatives as novel anticancer agents
A set of Xanthohumol derivatives were selected and molecular docking studies of these compounds on thioredoxin reductase were conducted. Based on new structural patterns using in silico-screening study, new potent lead compounds were designed. The results due to validated docking protocols lead to find that Thr58, Gly57, Gly21, Asp334, Glu163, Ala130, IIe332, Val44 and Gly132 are the main a...
متن کاملIn Silico Screening Studies on Methanesulfonamide Derivatives as Dual Hsp27 and Tubulin Inhibitors Using QSAR and Molecular Docking
The expression of heat shock protein 27 (Hsp27) as a chaperone protein, is increased in response to various stress stimuli such as anticancer chemotherapy. This phenomenon can lead to survive of the cells and causes drug resistance. In this study, a series of methanesulfonamide derivatives as dual Hsp27 and tubulin inhibitors in the treatment of cancer were applied to quantitative structure–act...
متن کاملIn-silico Investigation of Tubulin Binding Modes of a Series of Novel Antiproliferative Spiroisoxazoline Compounds Using Docking Studies
Interference with microtubule polymerization results in cell cycle arrest leading to cell death. Colchicine is a well-known microtubule polymerization inhibitor which does so by binding to a specific site on tubulin. A set of 3',4'-bis (substituted phenyl)-4'H-spiro[indene-2,5'-isoxazol]-1(3H)-one derivatives with known antiproliferative activities were evaluated for their tubulin binding modes...
