Molecular Modelling and Atomistic Insights into the Binding Mechanism of MmpL3 Mtb.

Mycobacterial membrane proteins Large (MmpLs), which belong to the resistance, nodulation, and division (RND) protein superfamily, play critical roles in transporting polymers, lipids, and immunomodulators. MmpLs have become one of the important therapeutic drug targets to emerge in recent times. In this study, two homology modelling techniques, Modeller and SWISS-MODEL, were used in modelling the three-dimensional protein structure of the MmpL3 of Mycobacterium tuberculosis using that of M.
