In silico elucidation of potential drug targets against oxygenase domain of Human eNOS Dysfunction.

ABSTRACT: Nitric Oxide (NO) signaling pathway plays a vital role in various physiological and pathophysiological processes including vasodilation, neurogenesis, inflammation, translation and protein regulation. NO signaling pathway is associated with various diseases such as cardiovascular diseases, vision impairment, hypertension and Alzheimer's disease. Human Endothelial Nitric Oxide Synthase (eNOS) bound with calcium regulatory protein (calmodulin (CaM)) to produce NO which initiates cGMP pathway. The current study employs to screen the novel compounds against human eNOS independent of calcium regulatory protein (CaM). The current effort emphasized that the deficiency of CaM leads to dysfunction of cGMP signaling pathway. In this work, a hybrid approach of high-throughput virtual screening and co
