Abstract excerpt
Ebola virus (EBOV) is highly lethal due to virally encoded immune antagonists, and the combination of EBOV VP24 with karyopherin alpha (KPNA) will trigger anti-interferon (IFN) signaling. The crystal structure of VP24-KPNA5 has been proposed in recent studies, but the precise binding mechanisms are still unclear. In order to explore the VP24-KPNA5 protein binding micro-mechanisms, Molecular Dynamic (MD)...
