Article Synopsis
  • The analysis focuses on the immunomodulatory protein D-dopachrome tautomerase (D-DT), aiming to understand its protein-ligand interactions, which are currently not well understood.* -
  • Researchers examined 17 protein variants and the wild type D-DT using various techniques to investigate how D-DT recognizes and binds to different ligands.* -
  • The study reveals that the C-terminal region of D-DT is crucial for regulating ligand interactions and conformational flexibility, aiding in better understanding for future drug design initiatives.*

SARS-CoV-2 infection manifestation has great diversity and it becomes even greater while co-infection occurs or there is a serious underlying disease in an affected patient. In this case report, we present a case of a 71-year-old man who underwent a chest CT scan following the development of fever, weakness, and pulmonary symptoms.
