Silibinins and curcumin as promising ligands against mutant cystic fibrosis transmembrane regulator protein

Abstract excerpt

Cystic Fibrosis Transmembrane Regulator (CFTR) is a significant protein that is responsible for the movement of ions across cell membranes. The cystic fibrosis (CF) occur due to the mutations in the CFTR gene as it produces the dysfunctional CFTR protein. The sequence of CFTR protein as a target structure was retrieved from UniProt and PDB database. The ligands selection was performed through virtual screening...
