AgNO3 dependant modulation of glucose mediated respiration kinetics in Escherichia coli at different pH and temperature

“…Docking was performed using GOLD software (Jones et al, 1997) in the standard default settings. The standard default settings such as population size 100, selection pressure 1.1, niche size 2, migrate 10, crossover 95, number of operations 100 000, and number of dockings 10 were adapted for docking process (Wu et al, 2008).…”

Molecular insights on analogs of HIV PR inhibitors toward HTLV‐1 PR through QM/MM interactions and molecular dynamics studies: comparative structure analysis of wild and mutant HTLV‐1 PR

“…The HIV-1/HTLV-1 sequence similarity is explored through ClustalW (Chenna et al, 2003), and structural similarity is viewed through Chimera (Pettersen et al, 2004). Crystal structures of HIV-1 PR (2UXZ) and HTLV-1 PR (2B7F) were used for superimposing methods, and their respective sequence information from the protein data bank is used for the sequence alignment (Li et al, 2005;Wu et al, 2008). HIV-1 PR was assigned as the reference protein, and HTLV-1 PR was matched through Smith-Waterman algorithm and Blosum62 matrix, while the active site region was visualized through maestro, and Physiochemical properties of active site were generated using the Sitemap (Halgren, 2009).…”

Transition State Analogues of Enzymatic Reaction as Potential Drugs

“…Analogs of D-Ala-D-Ala, in which phosphonate or phosphinate moiety replaces peptide bond appear to be potent inhibitors. As determined by kinetic [Ellsworth et al, 1996], X-Ray [Wu et al, 2008], and molecular modeling studies the inhibitor behaves as substrate and reacts with ATP to produce ADP and a tight-binding phosphorylated transition state analogue, which exerts inhibitory action against the enzyme (Fig. 24).…”

“…[Wu et al, 2008; Mahalingham et al, 2010].Studies conducted in order to evaluate the influence of these antiviral drugs on the development of parasites, which are known to co-infect HIV-positive individuals, surprisingly shown, that these drugs exhibit marked antiprotozoal activity. For example Saquinavir, Lopinavir, Indinavir directly inhibited the grown of Plasmodium falciparum in vitro at clinically relevant concentrations.…”
