Computational structural assessment of BReast CAncer type 1 susceptibility protein (BRCA1) and BRCA1-Associated Ring Domain protein 1 (BARD1) mutations on the protein-protein interface
(
Elsevier
, 2022 , Book chapter)
Breast cancer type 1 susceptibility protein (BRCA1) is closely related to the BRCA2 (breast cancer type 2 susceptibility protein) and BARD1 (BRCA1-associated RING domain-1) proteins. The homodimers were formed through their ...
Genetic Epidemiology of Primary Congenital Glaucoma in the 22 Arab Countries: A Systematic Review.
(
Taylor and Francis
, 2021 , Article)
Primary congenital glaucoma (PCG) is a rare glaucoma type that develops in early infantile period and contributes to an elevated pressure on ocular cavity. Variants in gene are the most encountered in PCG cases. The ...
A computational overview on phylogenetic characterization, pathogenic mutations, and drug targets for Ebola virus disease
(
Elsevier
, 2021 , Article)
The World Health Organization declared Ebola virus disease(EVD) as the major outbreak in the 20th century. EVD was firstidentified in 1976 in South Sudan and the Democratic Republicof the Congo. EVD was transmitted from ...
Whole-exome sequencing analysis of NSCLC reveals the pathogenic missense variants from cancer-associated genes
(
Elsevier
, 2022 , Article)
Background: Non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is the most common type of lung cancer. NSCLC accounts for 84% of all lung cancer cases. In recent years, advances in pathway understanding, methods for discovering novel ...
Genetic epidemiology of male infertility (MI) in Arabs: a systematic review
(
CSIRO
, 2022 , Article Review)
Although Male Infertility (MI) in Arabs is fairly common, there is a dearth in published reports of genetic epidemiology of MI among Arabs. This study aimed to review the existing literature reporting the variants that are ...
Comparison of potential inhibitors and targeting fat mass and obesity-associated protein causing diabesity through docking and molecular dynamics strategies.
(
Wiley
, 2021 , Article)
Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified an association between polymorphisms in the FTO gene and obesity. The FTO: rs9939609, an intronic variant, is considered a risk allele for developing diabesity in ...
A systemic approach to explore the mechanisms of drug resistance and altered signaling cascades in extensively drug-resistant tuberculosis
(
Elsevier
, 2021 , Book chapter)
Background and aim: The persistence of extensively drug-resistant (XDR) strains of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) continue to pose a significant challenge to the treatment and control of tuberculosis infections worldwide. ...
Computational model to analyze and characterize the functional mutations of NOD2 protein causing inflammatory disorder - Blau syndrome.
(
Elsevier
, 2020 , Article)
Blau syndrome (BS), which affects the eyes, skin, and joints, is an autosomal dominant genetic inflammatory disorder. BS is caused by mutations in the NOD2 gene. However, there are no direct treatments, and treatment with ...

Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is a neurodegenerative autoimmune and organ-specific demyelinating disorder, known to affect the central nervous system (CNS). While genetic studies have revealed several critical genes and diagnostic ...
Analysis of signaling cascades from myeloma cells treated with pristimerin
(
Elsevier
, 2022 , Book chapter)
Multiple myeloma (MM) is the 2nd most frequently diagnosed blood cancer after non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. The present study aimed to identify the differentially expressed genes (DEGs) between the control and pristimerin-treated ...
