Biological Applications of Isothermal Titration Calorimetry
Most of the biological phenomena are influenced by intermolecular recognition and interaction. Thus, understanding the thermodynamics of biomacromolecule ligand interaction is a very interesting area in biochemistry and biotechnology. One of the most powerful techniques to obtain precise information about the energetics of (bio) molecules binding to other biological macromolecules is isoth...
متن کاملComputational design of ligand binding is not a solved problem.
Computational design has been very successful in recent years: multiple novel ligand binding proteins as well as enzymes have been reported. We wanted to know in molecular detail how precise the predictions of the interactions of protein and ligands are. Therefore, we performed a structural analysis of a number of published receptors designed onto the periplasmic binding protein scaffold that w...
متن کاملFragment-based Binding Efficiency Indices in Bioactive Molecular Design: A Computational Approach to BACE-1 Inhibitors
One of the most important targets in Alzheimer disease is Beta site amyloid precursor protein cleaving enzyme-1 (BACE-1). It is a membrane associated protein and is one of the main enzymes responsible for amyloid β (Aβ) production. Up to now, a considerable number of peptidic and non-peptidic inhibitors of BACE-1 have been developed. Recently, small molecule BACE-1 inhibitors have attracted the...

متن کاملMolecular Dynamics Simulation and Free Energy Studies on the Interaction of Salicylic Acid with Human Serum Albumin (HSA)
Human serum albumin (HSA) is the most abundant protein in the blood plasma. Molecular dynamics simulations of subdomain IIA of HSA and its complex with salicylic acid (SAL) were performed to investigate structural changes induced by the ligand binding. To estimate the binding affinity of SAL molecule to subdomains IB and IIA in HSA protein, binding free energies were calculated using the Molecu...
