Despite the wide medical importance of serine protease inhibitors, many of kazal type proteins are still to be explored. These thrombin inhibiting proteins are found in the digestive system of hematophagous organisms mainly Arthropods. We studied one of such protein i.

The potential targets which are associated with the Alzheimer's disease are cholinesterases, N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor, Beta secretase 1, Pregnane X receptor (PXR) and P-glycoprotein (Pgp). P-glycoprotein is a member of the ATP binding cassette (ABC) transporter family, which is an important integral of the blood-brain, blood-cerebrospinal fluid and the blood-testis barrier.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFAurora kinases belong to family of highly conserved serine/threonine protein kinases that are involved in diverse cell cycle events and play a major role in regulation of cell division. Abnormal expression of Aurora kinases may lead to cancer; hence, these are considered as a potential target in cancer treatment. In this research article, we identified three novel Aurora A inhibitors using modern computational tools.
