Interaction of Camptothecin Anticancer Drugs with Ribosomal Proteins L15 and L11: A Molecular Docking Study
The antitumor drug topotecan (TPT) is a potent inhibitor of topoisomerase I, triggering DNA breaks lethal for proliferating cancer cells. The mechanism is common to camptothecins SN38 (the active metabolite of irinotecan) and belotecan (BLT). Recently, TPT was shown to bind the ribosomal protein L15...
