TLDR
Molecular modeling methods including molecular docking, three-dimensional quantitative structure–activity relationship (3 D-QSAR) and molecular dynamics simulation were applied on a series of Akt1 allosteric inhibitors to explore the structural requirements for their activities.
Abstract
Protein kinase B (Akt1), which is a pivotal node in various cellular signaling pathways and up-regulated in many human tumors, has been regarded as a promising target to discover novel anticancer c...
