Molecular dynamics simulations to decipher the structural and functional consequences of pathogenic missense mutations in the galactosylceramidase (GALC) protein causing Krabbe's disease.
(
Taylor & Francis
, 2020 , Article)
Krabbe disease (KD), also known as globoid cell leukodystrophy disease, is an autosomal recessive lysosomal storage genetic disorder, which is caused by the deficiecncy of galactocerebrosidase (GALC) coding gene (). This ...
Computational approach to unravel the impact of missense mutations of proteins (D2HGDH and IDH2) causing D-2-hydroxyglutaric aciduria 2.
(
Springer US
, 2018 , Article)
The 2-hydroxyglutaric aciduria (2-HGA) is a rare neurometabolic disorder that leads to the development of brain damage. It is classified into three categories: D-2-HGA, L-2-HGA, and combined D,L-2-HGA. The D-2-HGA includes ...
Computational modelling approaches as a potential platform to understand the molecular genetics association between Parkinson's and Gaucher diseases.
(
Springer
, 2018 , Article)
Gaucher's disease (GD) is a genetic disorder in which glucocerebroside accumulates in cells and specific organs. It is broadly classified into type I, type II and type III. Patients with GD are at high risk of Parkinson's ...
Computational and modeling approaches to understand the impact of the Fabry's disease causing mutation (D92Y) on the interaction with pharmacological chaperone 1-deoxygalactonojirimycin (DGJ).
(
Elsevier
, 2019 , Book chapter)
Fabry's disease (FD) is the second most commonly occurring lysosomal storage disorders (LSDs). The mutations in α-galactosidase A (GLA) protein were widely found to be causative for the Fabry's disease. These mutations ...
A computational method to characterize the missense mutations in the catalytic domain of GAA protein causing Pompe disease.
(
Wiley
, 2019 , Article)
Pompe disease is an autosomal recessive lysosomal storage disease caused by acid α-glucosidase (GAA) deficiency, resulting in intralysosomal accumulation of glycogen, including cardiac, skeletal, and smooth muscle cells. ...
Analysis of Differentially Expressed Genes and Molecular Pathways in Familial Hypercholesterolemia Involved in Atherosclerosis: A Systematic and Bioinformatics Approach.
(
Frontiers Media
, 2020 , Article)
Familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) is one of the major risk factor for the progression of atherosclerosis and coronary artery disease. This study focused on identifying the dysregulated molecular pathways and core genes ...
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 ...
Identification of potential inhibitors against pathogenic missense mutations of PMM2 using a structure-based virtual screening approach.
(
Taylor & Francis
, 2019 , Article)
The autosomal recessive phosphomannomutase 2-congenital disorder of glycosylation (PMM2-CDG) is characterized by defective functioning of the PMM2 enzyme, which is necessary for the conversion of mannose-6-phosphate into ...
Dysregulation of Signaling Pathways Due to Differentially Expressed Genes From the B-Cell Transcriptomes of Systemic Lupus Erythematosus Patients - A Bioinformatics Approach.
(
Frontiers Media
, 2020 , Article)
Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is an autoimmune inflammatory disorder that is clinically complex and has increased production of autoantibodies. Via emerging technologies, researchers have identified genetic variants, ...
Elucidating the role of interacting residues of the MSH2-MSH6 complex in DNA repair mechanism: A computational approach.
(
Elsevier
, 2019 , Article)
The DNA repair system is crucial to repair the error resulting in DNA replication. MSH2-MSH6 protein complex plays a significant role in maintaining the mismatch repair mechanism. Mutations in the interface between the two ...
