Research Reveals Crucial Role of Protein Plasticity in Inflammatory Diseases
Researchers at the Indian Institute of Technology Roorkee have discovered the importance of protein plasticity in protein-ligand interactions, specifically in the case of interleukin-8 (IL8), a proinflammatory chemokine associated with various diseases. The study, published in the Journal of Chemical Information and Modeling, utilized a combination of computational and biophysical
