In silico analysis of glycinamide ribonucleotide transformylase inhibition by PY873, PY899 and DIA

الملخص EN

In humans, purine de novo synthesis pathway consists of multi-functional enzymes.

Nucleotide metabolism enzymes are potential drug targets for treating cancer and autoimmune diseases.

Glycinamide ribonucleotide transformylase (GART) is one of the most important trifunctional enzymes involved in purine synthesis.

Previous studies have demonstrated the role of folate inhibitors against tumor activity.

In this present study, three components of GART enzyme were targeted as receptor dataset and in silico analysis was carried out with folate ligand dataset.

To accomplish the task, Autodock 4.2 was used for determining the docking compatibilities of ligand and receptor dataset.

Taken together, it has been suggested that folate ligands could be potentially used as inhibitors of GART.
