Structural insight into PRMT5 inhibitors through amalgamating pharmacophore-based virtual screening, ADME toxicity, and binding energy studies to identify new inhibitors by molecular docking
Abstract:Protein arginine methyltransferase 5 (PRMT5) is a member of the methyltransferases family, a type II arginine enzyme that is crucial for many cellular processes and is associated with many cancer diseases. In this study, pharmacophore-based 3D QSAR modeling, virtual screening and binding free energy studies were carried out from a set of 61 potent compounds reported being inhibitors of PRMT5 protein. A vepoint pharmacophore model (AADHR) was generated and this model is used to generate an atom-based 3-Dimensio… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
