An <em>in silico</em> study was conducted to assess the binding affinity of CMP1 with six cancer-related protein targets implicated in tumor initiation and progression. Among them, CMP1-Kelch domain of KEAP1, testis-specific CMP1-Bromodomain, and TRIM24 bromodomain-CMP1 complexes exhibited remarkable conformational stability, as confirmed by molecular dynamics and metadynamics simulations. These findings suggest that CMP1 holds promise as a potential candidate for targeted cancer therapy, warranting further biological evaluation.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":16414,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Molecular Structure","volume":"1338 ","pages":"Article 142294"},"PeriodicalIF":4.0,"publicationDate":"2025-04-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143821086","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
