Preparation proteins was done using Discovery Studio 2021 Client. structure drawn ChemDraw 20.0 saved Mol Molecular performed PyRx software. 3D 2D interactions...

The inclusion of receptor flexibility in protein-ligand docking experiments has become a major research interest in drug discovery [1,2]. One of the possible methods applied is the use of multiple discrete protein conformations, so called ensemble docking [3,4]. With computational techniques like Molecular Dynamics (MD) a large number of different conformations can be generated, not all of whic...

MOTIVATION The limited success rate of protein-protein docking procedures is generally attributed to structure differences between the bound and unbound states of the molecules. Herein we analyze a large dataset of protein-protein docking results and identify additional parameters that affect the performance of docking procedures. RESULTS We find that the distinction between nearly correct mo...

Synaptic vesicle docking, priming, and fusion at active zones are orchestrated by a complex molecular machinery. We employed hippocampal organotypic slice cultures from mice lacking key presynaptic proteins, cryofixation, and three-dimensional electron tomography to study the mechanism of synaptic vesicle docking in the same experimental setting, with high precision, and in a near-native state....

In this research work, a proficient method has been developed for the preparation of novel N-((2-chloroquinolin-3-yl) methylene)-4-methylbenzenamine derivatives from 2-chloroquinoline-3-carbaldehyde derivatives and p-toluidine in ethanol as solvent and using catalytic amount of acetic acid under reflux conditions to obtain desired products in good yields. The identification of all the synthesiz...

Alzheimer’s disease (AD) as a complicated and progressive neurodegenerative disorder is the most common form of dementia and memory loss. On account of the multifactorial etiology of AD, the multi-target-directed ligand (MTDL) approach is a promising method in searching new drug candidates for this disease. Here, in this paper more than 500 tacrine-coumarin hybrids have been designed and drug-l...
