Abstract excerpt
Microsomal prostaglandin (PG) E synthase-1 (mPGES-1) has recently been recognized as a novel, promising drug target for inflammation-related diseases. Functional and pathological studies on this enzyme further stimulate to understand its structure and the structure-function relationships. Using an approach of the combined structure prediction, molecular docking, site-directed mutagenesis, and enzymatic activity...
