Pramanik et al., 2020: Proteomic Atomics Reveals a Distinctive Uracil-5-Methyltransferase


Figure: Proteome-based atom (C, H, N, O, S) distributions across all species of the phylogenetic tree revealed U5MTase of Plasmodium falciparum as a distinguished possible therapeutic target which in turn was used for in silico structure-based drug design strategies (i.e. 3D protein structure modeling, virtual chemical library screening, and molecular docking) to identify imanixil as potential inhibitory drug molecule that might serve as possible remedy for the treatment of malaria.
