Journal ArticleDOI
Caffeic acid binds to the minor groove of calf thymus DNA: A multi-spectroscopic, thermodynamics and molecular modelling study
Tarique Sarwar,Hassan Mubarak Ishqi,Sayeed Ur Rehman,Mohammed Amir Husain,Yusra Rahman,Mohammad Tabish +5 more
TL;DR: In vitro experiments and in silico molecular docking studies concluded that CA binds to the minor groove of Ct-DNA, suggesting that hydrogen bonding and van der Waal's forces played major role in the binding process.
Journal ArticleDOI
Molecular spectroscopic and thermodynamic studies on the interaction of anti-platelet drug ticlopidine with calf thymus DNA
Shumaila Afrin,Yusra Rahman,Tarique Sarwar,Mohammed Amir Husain,Abad Ali,Shamsuzzaman,Mohammad Tabish +6 more
TL;DR: A series of biophysical experiments were performed to ascertain the binding mode between ticlopidine and calf thymus DNA and found the reaction to be endothermic and the parameters obtained were found to be consistent with those of known groove binders.
Journal ArticleDOI
Unravelling the interaction of pirenzepine, a gastrointestinal disorder drug, with calf thymus DNA: An in vitro and molecular modelling study.
Yusra Rahman,Shumaila Afrin,Mohammed Amir Husain,Tarique Sarwar,Abad Ali,Shamsuzzaman,Mohammad Tabish +6 more
TL;DR: Thermodynamic parameters obtained from isothermal titration calorimetric studies suggest that the interaction of pirenzepine with Ct-DNA is enthalpically driven, and the role of electrostatic interaction in the binding of pirensepine to Ct- DNA cannot be precluded.
Journal ArticleDOI
Elucidating the interaction of sulindac with calf thymus DNA: biophysical and in silico molecular modelling approach
Mohammed Amir Husain,Hassan Mubarak Ishqi,Sayeed Ur Rehman,Tarique Sarwar,Shumaila Afrin,Yusra Rahman,Mohammad Tabish +6 more
TL;DR: It is confirmed that the formation of the sulindac–Ct-DNA complex is spontaneous and enthalpy (ΔH < 0) driven, which is further supported by the consistent results obtained from the in silico molecular docking studies.
Journal ArticleDOI
Interaction of pirenzepine with bovine serum albumin and effect of β-cyclodextrin on binding: A biophysical and molecular docking approach
TL;DR: In this article, the average binding distance between BSA and pirenzepine was calculated based on the Forster's non-radiative energy transfer theory, and the effect of inclusion compound, β-cyclodextrin on pirenziepine-BSA interaction was studied.
