Aminotransferases Screening of Nitro-D-Arginine Using Molecular Modeling
Abstract— This study is intended to screen the potential aminotransferases using molecular modeling
technique. In detail, the sybyl-x software was employed to simulate the second step of catalysis process of
nitro-D-arginine (D-NNA) by aminotransferases whose structural data were from Protein Data Bank (PDB).
Results showed the most suitable candidate aminotransferase was human mitochondrial aspartate
aminotransferase in the range of our research, which might aid to shortening the drug developing cycle and
increasing the efficiency of lead compound discovery.
Index Terms— molecular modeling, aminotransferase screen, nitro-D-arginine
