Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleMolecular Dynamics Simulation of DENV RNA-Dependent RNA-Polymerase with Potential Inhibitor of Disulfide Cyclic PeptideUsman Sumo Friend Tambunan, Raima Syahidah Noors, Arli Aditya Parikesit et al.Problem statement: Our researches have proposed two ligands of disulfide cyclic polypeptide, which are CDEEC and CDGSC as potential inhibitor of DENV RNA-dependent RNApolymerase by molecular docking. Approach: Methodological approach was conducted to determine the best ligand to act as inhibitor. Molecular docking simulation was conducted without a solvent in which enzyme was made rigid and ligand was left free … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 30 Sep 2011 · 8,441 accessesView PDFCite
Letter to the EditorOpen accessIn the keywordsSofosbuvir May be a Potential Anti-SARS-CoV-2 RdRp DrugMohamed Nabil Ibrahim, Abdo Abdellah ElfikyThe Coronavirus Diseases 2019 (COVID-19) seriously affecting human health all over the world. More than 107 M people are reported positive for SARS-CoV-2, the virus causing COVID-19 pneumonia, from which +2.3 M died. Nucleotide Inhibitors (NI) have promising results in terms of its efficacy against different viral polymerases, including the Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) Non-Structural Protein 5 B (NS5B) RNA … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 17, Issue 2 · 10 May 2021 · 6,568 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsInhibition of U6 snRNA Transcription by PTENStephanie Cabarcas, Kounosuke Watabe, Laura SchrammProblem statement: RNA polymerase III (RNA pol III) is responsible for transcribing many of the small structural RNA molecules involved in RNA processing and protein translation, thereby regulating the growth rate of a cell. RNA pol III transcribes both gene internal (tRNA) and gene external (U6 snRNA) promoters and proper initiation by RNA polymerase III requires the transcription initiation factor … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2010 · 8,551 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGenetic Diversity of Leifsonia xyli Subsp. xyli Causing Ratoon Stunting Diseases of Sugarcane in Indonesia Using Intergenic Spacer Region Sequence AnalysisSisca Prayudani Usman, Abdul Latief Abadi et al.Leifsonia xyli subsp xyli (Lxx) is the cause of Ratoon Stunting Disease (RSD) on sugarcane and it considers as a quarantine pest in certain regions of Indonesia. RSD is a systemic disease that causes severe cane yield loss. Information about genetic diversity of this bacterial pathogen in Indonesia is limited. While global trading of sugar cane seed may facilitate the … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 25, Issue 2 · 23 Jun 2025 · 3,351 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Cross-Sectional Study of the Prevalence of Hepatitis C Virus InfectionOmar Atrooz, Rehab Thunibat, Ihssan AtroozLiver pain is increased by hepatotropic viruses, such as the Hepatitis C Virus (HCV). This illness can progress to cirrhosis and hepatocellular cancer. This study aims to determine the prevalence of hepatitis C in the Southern Jordanian cities (Karak and Tafilah) as well as the correlations between alanine Aminotransferase (ALT), Aspartate aminotransferase (AST), age and gender in hepatitis C patients. … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 24, Issue 4 · 5 Jul 2024 · 4,414 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Investigation of Organelle Genomes of Extra Nuclear Sunflower Mutants with Variegated PhenotypeIrina Dremuk, Nikolay Kozel, Mariya Logacheva et al.The comparative analysis of complete chloroplast and mitochondrial DNA sequences of the original inbred line 3629 and three extra nuclear mutant lines variegated-1, variegated-15, variegated-17, obtained by the N-nitroso-N-methylurea induced mutagenesis, was done. The studied mutant lines were presented two different phenotypes with diverse chlorophyll content: Pale/green mutant line variegated-17 with 1.8% relative (to 3629 line) chlorophyll content in mutant … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 13, Issue 4 · 24 Oct 2017 · 7,633 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDesigning of Disulfide Cyclic Peptide for Inhibiting Polymerase A and B1 (PAC-PB1N) in H1N1 Virus using Molecular Simulation ApproachUsman Sumo Friend Tambunan, Mochammad Arfin Fardiansyah Nasution, Arli Aditya Parikesit et al.The drug resistance A/H1N1 flu virus is emerging rapidly. Therefore, looking for potential therapy is very important. PB2, PB and PA are subunits of viral RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp). They play an important role in viral replication. The PA and PB1 binding sites can be considered as potential targets for the development of new influenza drugs. The peptide inhibitors can … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 16, Issue 3 · 24 Aug 2016 · 7,310 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe HCV Replicase InteractomeAntonio Mas, Pilar Clemente-Casares, Eugenio Ramírez, Rosario SabariegosViruses are obligate parasites and can only reproduce within host cells because they lack metabolic pathways to complete their replication cycles. Host factors required in viral replication are mainly those involved in lipid metabolism, cell cycle control and apoptosis, cell-to-cell interactions, immune system regulation, etc. Several inhibitors targeting viral polymerases have been designed. However, the rapid appearance of resistant mutants, … …Current Research in Virology, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 27 Jul 2016 · 13,210 accessesView PDFCite
