BACKGROUND: The anti-apoptotic protein B-Cell Lymphoma 2 (Bcl-2) is a key target for the development of anti-cancer agents, as its overexpression can render cancer cells resistant to chemotherapeutic treatments.

Identification of new inhibitors of NS5 from dengue virus using saturation transfer difference (STD-NMR) and molecular docking studies
The rapid spread of dengue virus has now emerged as a major health problem worldwide, particularly in tropical and sub-tropical regions. Nearly half of the human population is at risk of getting infection. Among the proteomes of dengue virus, nonstructural protein NS5 is conserved across the genus Flavivirus. NS5 comprises methyltransferase enzyme (MTase) domain, which helps in viral RNA capping, and RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp) domain, which is...

GC-MS- and NMR-Based Metabolomics and Molecular Docking Reveal the Potential Alpha-Glucosidase Inhibitors from Psychotria malayana Jack Leaves
Psychotria malayana Jack leaf, known in Indonesia as "daun salung", is traditionally used for the treatment of diabetes and other diseases. Despite its potential, the phytochemical study related to its anti-diabetic activity is still lacking. Thus, this study aimed to identify putative inhibitors of ?-glucosidase, a prominent enzyme contributing to diabetes type 2 in P. malayana leaf extract using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS)- and...

[NMR paper] Fucosyltransferase 2 inhibitors: Identification via docking and STD-NMR studies
Fucosyltransferase 2 inhibitors: Identification via docking and STD-NMR studies
Fucosyltransferase 2 (FUT2) catalyzes the biosynthesis of A, B, and H antigens and other important glycans, such as (Sialyl Lewisx) sLex, and (Sialyl Lewisy) sLey. The production of these glycans is increased in various cancers, hence to design and develop specific inhibitors of FUT2 is a therapeutic strategy. The current study was designed to identify the inhibitors for FUT2. In silico screening of 300 synthetic compounds was performed. Molecular docking studies highlighted the interactions of...

Abstract
Drug discovery is a complex and costly endeavor, where few drugs that reach the clinical testing phase make it to market. High-throughput screening (HTS) is the primary method used by the pharmaceutical industry to identify initial lead compounds. Unfortunately, HTS has a high failure rate and is not particularly efficient at...
