Article Title: Identification of novel drug targets for Helicobacter pylori : structure-based virtual screening of potential inhibitors against DAH7PS protein involved in the shikimate pathway
doi: 10.3389/fbinf.2024.1482338
Figure Lengend Snippet: The interactions of 6,8-Dihydroxyisocoumarin-3-carboxylic acid (A) and Epicatechin (B) with DAH7PS protein. The tertiary structure of the DAH7PS protein and its APBS (Adaptive Poisson-Boltzmann Solver) electrostatic interactions with the ligands are shown in (D) and (C) depictions. Data highlight that the pocket size has a highly positive charge.
