Molecular Modelling for Enzyme Inhibition: A Search for a New Treatment for Cataract and New Antimicrobials and Herbicides
There have been several reports that cataract development results from unregulated Ca2+ mediated degradation of lens crystallins. The calpain isoform m-calpain, a cysteine protease, is known to be a major player in cataract formation in rodent lenses and recent evidence indicates that over-activatio...
