Cancer is one of the three biggest causes death in world. The development new drugs against this disease a serious study that must be carried out order to reduce mortality and extend life span sufferers. aim research was develop anti-cancer drug based on halogenated imidazole chalcones have been conducted. A 18 chalcone compound designed performed molecular docking. Potential compounds docking ...

Telomere is a nucleoprotein complex that plays important role in stability and their maintenance and consists of random repeats of species specific motifs. In budding Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Repressor Activator Protein 1 (Rap1) is a sequence specific protein that involved in transcriptional regulation. Rap1 consist of three active domains like N-terminal BRCT-domain, DNA-binding domain and C-...

BACKGROUND The fatty-acid profile of the vegetable oils determines its properties and nutritional value. Palm-oil obtained from the African oil-palm [Elaeis guineensis Jacq. (Tenera)] contains 44% palmitic acid (C16:0), but, palm-oil obtained from the American oilpalm [Elaeis oleifera] contains only 25% C16:0. In part, the b-ketoacyl-[ACP] synthase II (KASII) [EC: 2.3.1.179] protein is responsi...

Human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) is a member of the epidermal growth factor receptor family having tyrosine kinase activity. Overexpression of HER2 usually causes malignant transformation of cells and is responsible for the breast cancer. In this work, the virtual screening, molecular docking, quantum mechanics and molecular dynamics methods were employed to study protein–ligand ...

Abstract In the process of bioethanol production, more stable and active cellulase in high temperature condition is required. this study, syringic acid was applied hydrolysis system. At 70°C, Tv EG3 activity increased 201.36%, Ct BglA decreased 72.79% by acid. With assisting, thermostability improved, reduced. Syringic scarcely affected CBH. system with cellulases containing EG3, CBH, BglA, red...

Cutaneous leishmaniasis is a neglected tropical disease and a major public health in the most countries. Leishmania major is the most common cause of cutaneous leishmaniasis. In the Leishmania parasites, sterol 14α-demethylase (CYP51), which is involved in the biosynthesis of sterols, has been identified as an attractive target for development of new therapeutic agents. In this study, the seque...

The analysis of structural mobility in molecular dynamics plays a key role in data interpretation, particularly in the simulation of biomolecules. The most common mobility measures computed from simulations are the Root Mean Square Deviation (RMSD) and Root Mean Square Fluctuations (RMSF) of the structures. These are computed after the alignment of atomic coordinates in each trajectory step to ...

The mitochondrial voltage-dependent anion channel (VDAC) allows passage of ions and metabolites across the mitochondrial outer membrane. Cholesterol binds mammalian VDAC, and we investigated the effects of binding to human VDAC1 with atomistic molecular dynamics simulations that totaled 1.4 μs. We docked cholesterol to specific sites on VDAC that were previously identified with NMR, and we test...

Blue fluorescent protein (BFP) is a mutant of green fluorescent protein (GFP), where the chromophore has been modified to shift the emitted fluorescence into the blue spectral region. In this study, MD calculations were performed with the GROMACS simulation package and AMBER force field to investigate the dependence of BFPs physicochemical properties on temperature and applied pressure. The MD ...
