Journal ArticleDOI
Mitochondrial permeability transition pore is a potential drug target for neurodegeneration
TL;DR: The CypD-dependent mPTP is directly linked to the cellular and synaptic perturbations observed in the pathogenesis of AD and designed small molecules to block this interaction would lessen the effects of Aβ neurotoxicity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Identification of substituted [3, 2-a] pyrimidines as selective antiviral agents: molecular modeling study.
Kilaru Ravendra Babu,Valasani Koteswara Rao,Valasani Koteswara Rao,Yellapu Nanda Kumar,Kishore Polireddy,Kadiam C. Venkata Subbaiah,M. Bhaskar,Valluru Lokanatha,Chamarthi Naga Raju +8 more
TL;DR: The main objective of the present work is to carry out the QSAR studies for all the series of the compounds starting from 4a to 6j to find out their molecular descriptors and predict the biological properties, and to consider these molecules as potential antiviral drugs.
Journal ArticleDOI
Design, Synthesis and Anti Colon Cancer Activity Evaluation of Phosphorylated Derivatives of Lamivudine (3TC)
Valasani Koteswara Rao,S. Reddy,Balam Satheesh Krishna,Cirandur Suresh Reddy,Nimmanapalli P. Reddy,Tamatam C.M. Reddy,Chamarthi Naga Raju,Shraboni Ghosh +7 more
TL;DR: The novel phosphorylated derivatives of Lamivudine (5a-5l) as potential anti colon cancer agents are synthe- sized and among them 5a and 5b emerged as lead compounds with 0.003 μM and 0.0001 μM values.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cloning and characterization of l-lactate dehydrogenase gene of Staphylococcus aureus.
Sthanikam Yeswanth,Yellapu Nanda Kumar,Uppu Venkateswara Prasad,Vimjam Swarupa,Valasani Koteswara Rao,Potukuchi Venkata Gurunadha Krishna Sarma +5 more
TL;DR: The lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) gene which catalyzes the formation of lactate was cloned, sequenced, and expressed in Escherichia coli DH5α and the LDH gene sequence "LKDIMA" was found to be conserved in all Gram positive bacteria and in all human LDH isoforms even though only 39% sequence homology was observed with all human LH isoforms.
Journal ArticleDOI
Comparison and correlation of binding mode of ATP in the kinase domains of Hexokinase family.
Yellapu Nanda Kumar,Pasupuleti Santhosh Kumar,G. Sowjenya,Valasani Koteswara Rao,Sthanikam Yeswanth,Uppu Venkateswara Prasad,Jangampalli Adi Pradeepkiran,Pvgk Sarma,M. Bhaskar +8 more
TL;DR: The analysis revealed that the four ATP binding domains are showing 13 identical, 7 similar and 6 dissimilar residues with similar structural conformation, which probably explains the variable phosphorylation rates among hexokinases family.
