Generation of a 3D model for human cereblon using comparative modelling
Three-dimensional (3D) protein structures provide helpful insights into the molecularassociation of a gene, its purpose also allow efficient drug designing experiments, such as the structure-based design of specific inhibitors. Recently, it has been shown that protein (cereblon) is involved in various tissues and brain and is revealed to be related with mental retardation. After this first report of cereblon...
