Targeting cyclin-dependent kinase 2 CDK2: Insights from molecular docking and dynamics simulation - A systematic computational approach to discover novel cancer therapeutics.

Global public health is confronted with significant challenges due to the prevalence of cancer and the emergence of treatment resistance. This work focuses on the identification of cyclin-dependent kinase 2 (CDK2) through a systematic computational approach to discover novel cancer therapeutics. A ligand-based pharmacophore model was initially developed using a training set of seven potent CDK2 inhibitors.
