Developing phytocompound-based new drugs against multi-drug-resistant .

, a prevalent component of the human microbiota, is associated with skin infections to life-threatening diseases, presenting challenges in treatment options and necessitating the development of effective treatments. This study integrated computational and approaches to identify promising phytocompounds with therapeutic potential. Staphopain B emerged as a target protein for its role in immune evasion, exhibiting stability during molecular dynamic simulation (MDS) with a root mean square deviation value of 2.

In Silico Identification and Analysis of Potentially Bioactive Antiviral Phytochemicals against SARS-CoV-2: A Molecular Docking and Dynamics Simulation Approach.

SARS-CoV-2, a deadly coronavirus sparked COVID-19 pandemic around the globe. With an increased mutation rate, this infectious agent is highly transmissible inducing an escalated rate of infections and death everywhere. Hence, the discovery of a viable antiviral therapy option is urgent.

Targeting Shikimate Kinase Pathway of : A Structure-Based Computational Approach to Identify Antibacterial Compounds.

() is an opportunistic bacterium that has developed multidrug resistance (MDR) to most of today's antibiotics, posing a significant risk to human health. Considering the fact that developing novel drugs is a time-consuming and expensive procedure, this research focuses on utilizing computational resources for repurposing antibacterial agents for . We targeted shikimate kinase, an essential enzyme in , that plays a significant role in the metabolic process.

Oxa-376 and Oxa-530 variants of β-lactamase: computational study uncovers potential therapeutic targets of .

Antimicrobial resistance is a major global health crisis, resulting in thousands of deaths each year. Antibiotics' effectiveness against microorganisms deteriorates over time as multidrug resistance (MDR) develops, which is exacerbated by irregular antibiotic use, poor disease management, and the evasive nature of bacteria. The World Health Organization has recognized multidrug resistance as a critical public health concern, and has been at the center of attention due to its ability to develop multidrug resistance (MDR).

Identification of the most damaging nsSNPs in the human CFL1 gene and their functional and structural impacts on cofilin-1 protein.

The cofilin-1 protein, encoded by CFL1, is an actin-binding protein that regulates F-actin depolymerization and nucleation activity through phosphorylation and dephosphorylation. CFL1 has been implicated in the development of neurodegenerative diseases (Alzheimer's disease and Huntington's disease), neuronal migration disorders (lissencephaly, epilepsy, and schizophrenia), and neural tube closure defects. Mutations in CFL1 have been associated with impaired neural crest cell migration and neural tube closure defects.

Transcriptomic studies revealed pathophysiological impact of COVID-19 to predominant health conditions.

Despite the association of prevalent health conditions with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) severity, the disease-modifying biomolecules and their pathogenetic mechanisms remain unclear. This study aimed to understand the influences of COVID-19 on different comorbidities and vice versa through network-based gene expression analyses. Using the shared dysregulated genes, we identified key genetic determinants and signaling pathways that may involve in their shared pathogenesis.
