Molecular docking of Anopheles gambiae and Aedes aegypti glutathione S-transferases epsilon 2 (GSTE2) against usnic acid: an evidence of glutathione conjugation

The aim of this study was to develop a theoretical model using Anopheles gambiae GSTE2 structure as template for Aedes aegypti GSTE2 by homology modeling Docking simulations were performed for both the enzymes against usnic acid in neutral and anionic forms. Ramachandran plot revealed that 93.9% of...
