Role of water in cyclooxygenase catalysis and design of anti-inflammatory agents targeting two sites of the enzyme
Abstract While designing the anti-inflammatory agents targeting cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2), we first identified a water loop around the heme playing critical role in the enzyme catalysis. The results of molecular dynamic studies supported by the strong hydrogen-bonding equilibria of the participating...
