Abstract excerpt
Adipocyte fatty acid binding protein (A-FABP) is a potential drug target for treatment of diabetes, obesity and atherosclerosis. Molecular dynamics (MD) simulations, principal component (PC) analysis and binding free energy calculations were combined to probe effect of electrostatic interactions of residues R78, R106 and R126 with inhibitors ZGB, ZGC and IBP on structural stability of three inhibitor/A-FABP...
