Deciphering Plasmodium Condensin Core Subunits of Structural Maintenance of Chromosomes 2 (SMC2) as a Putative Drug Target for Antimalarial Drug.
Background: The structural maintenance of chromosomes (SMC) proteins plays a noteworthy role in chromosome dynamics. Several recent studies reported that the condensin core subunits of structural maintenance of chromosomes 2 (SMC2) play important roles in the atypical mitosis of the Plasmodium life cycle and may perform different functions during different proliferative stages. For eukaryotes, the structural maintenance of chromosomes (SMC) proteins are divided into six subunits and form three heterodimers of structural maintenance of chromosomes (SMC1/3) cohesion complex, structural maintenance of chromosomes (SMC2/4) condensin complex, and structural maintenance of chromosomes (SMC5/6) complex for chromosome cohesion, condensation, and DNA damage repair, respectively.
Objective: The objective of this study was to investigate the structural maintenance of chromosomes 2 (SMC2) protein of P. falciparum as a putative drug target of malariacausing Plasmodium falciparum.
Methods: In this study, we investigated the structural maintenance of chromosomes 2 (SMC2) protein of P. falciparum as a putative drug target of malaria-causing P. falciparum by using in-silico approaches like Homology modeling, in-silico evaluation of the modeled structure, molecular docking study to investigate the interaction of receptor-ligand, and molecular dynamic simulation study with MM calculation.
Results: We reported the structural maintenance of chromosomes 2 (SMC2) protein of P. falciparum as a potent drug target that can pave the way for novel drug discovery to mitigate malaria.
Conclusion: In-silico-based studies play a significant role in understanding any protein for potential drug development.
