A computational exploration of the interactions of the green tea polyphenol (-)-Epigallocatechin 3-Gallate with cardiac muscle troponin C.
Thanks to its polyphenols and phytochemicals, green tea is believed to have a number of health benefits, including protecting from heart disease, but its mechanism of action at the molecular level is still not understood.
