objective: druggability of a target protein depends on the interacting micro-environment between the target protein and drugs. therefore, a precise knowledge of the interacting micro-environment between the target protein and drugs is requisite for drug discovery process. to understand such micro-environment, we performed in silico interaction analysis between a human target protein, dipeptidyl...

Sotos syndrome is a genetic disorder characterized by overgrowth, megalocephaly, and mental retardation due to mutations or deletions in the nuclear receptor binding SET Domain protein 1 (NSD1) gene. We report case of with various oral symptoms.

human serum albumin (hsa) is an abundant, multifunctional and nonglycosylated negatively charged plasma protein. hsa ascribed ligand-binding and transport properties, antioxidant functions and enzymatic activities. in the present study, the interaction and side effects of a new designed anti-cancer compound (1,10-phenanthroline butyl dithiocarbamato palladium(ii) nitrate) on hsa have been inves...

background: recently, botulinum neurotoxin (bont)-derived recombinant proteins have been suggested as potential botulism vaccines. here, with concentrating on bont type e (bont/e), we studied two of these binding domain-based recombinant proteins: a multivalent chimer protein, which is composed of bont serotypes a, b and e binding subdomains, and a monovalent recombinant protein, which contains...

because of participation in many aspects of human life, and due to oxidation-sensitive characteristics of dopamine (da) and arachidonoyl dopamine (aa-da), the necessity of biocompatible carrier to keep them against oxidation is of importance. in this work, we explored the putative binding sites of da and aa-da to -lactoglobulin (blg) as potent carrier. docking results identified the binding si...

background: thioredoxin reductase 1 (txnrd1) and thioredoxin interacting protein (txnip) also known as thioredoxin binding protein 2 or vitamin d3-upregulated protein 1 are key players in oxidative stress control. thioredoxin (trx) is one of the major components of the thiol reducing system and plays multiple roles in cellular processes. computational analyses of txnrd1, txnip and trx expressio...
