Affinity and selectivity of cardiac versus skeletal troponin I towards cardiac troponin I antibody: a computational study

Abstract:

Cardiac troponin I (cTnI) is currently the gold-standard biomarker for the fast and early detection of a myocardial failure. Within this context, in this work we report a computational study of the interactions of the cTnI antibody (αcTnI) capture probe with cTnI and its principal interferon, skeletal troponin I (sTnI). This study allows having a better understanding of those biochemical interactions and to computationally predict the binding performance and the selectivity of the αcTnI to cTnI versus sTnI. This information is very relevant for the development of analysis systems for myocardial failure diagnosis based on cTnI detection.

The computational study was performed using different simulation platforms. FTSite and FTMap were used for the determination and mapping of the binding sites sequences [1]. Then, FTDock and pyDock were used to study the molecular dockings [2]. Thus, several energies parameters were generated and represented as well.

This study can also be applied to a wide range of different scenarios were other targets (e.g., lipids, oligonucleotides, etc.) or other applications (e.g., pharmacological drug design) are considered.

Nicely explained
Universitat politecnica is doing great job by conducting amazing type of experiments about biochemical interactions and giving amazing outputs. You must read History Thesis Topics and to chose best one for your assignments. I would love to read more this kind of articles about new experiments which are conducting under this university.

I like this case study because this study can also be applied to a wide range of different scenarios or other applications (e.g., pharmacological drug design)are considered. This information provided by dissertation writers for hire is very relevant for the development of analysis systems for myocardial failure diagnosis based on cTnI detection.

I have to begin by saying that Palm Tree School has aided my youth in a number of ways. Can we offer best paper writing service now? Right off the bat, when I first reached the boundaries that I chose my children to this school, I had no idea how good a school class could be until my children’s place started at Wood. Thanks. I don't understand how long they are after school
