Abstract:Targeting the interaction between tumor suppressor p53 and murine double minute 2(MDM2) has been an attractive therapeutic strategy of recent cancer research.

In this study, a new approach is employed in which dynamics of MDM2 obtained by elastic network models are used as a guide in the generation of the ligand-based pharmacophore model prior to virtual screening.
