Some of these compounds show good inhibition of the enzymes and also selectivity towards the parasite enzyme. Modelling was undertaken to dock the compounds into the active sites of both enzymes. Using a combination of DOCK 3.5 and FLEXIDOCK a correlation was obtained between docking score and both activity for the enzymes and selectivity. Visualisation of the docked structures of the inhibitors in the active sites of the enzymes yielded a possible explanation of the selectivity for the parasite enzyme. date: 2001 date_type: published id_number: 10.1023/A:1011196508214 uniqueid: glaseprints:2001-21833 thomson_ut: 168535900005 scopus_impact: 12 scopus_cluster: 2-s2.0-0035014134 scopus_datestamp: 2013-10-25 20:20:51 wos_impact: 11 wos_cluster: WOS:000168535900005 wos_datestamp: 2013-10-24 21:35:35 full_text_status: none publication: Journal of Computer-Aided Molecular Design volume: 15 number: 5 pagerange: 465-475 refereed: TRUE issn: 0920-654X hoa_compliant: 304 hoa_date_pub: 2001 hoa_exclude: FALSE citation: Bertelli, M., El-Bastawissy, E., Knaggs, M.H., Barrett, M.P. , Hanau, S. and Gilbert, I.H.
