Computer-aided genomic data analysis of drug-resistant Neisseria gonorrhoeae for the Identification of alternative therapeutic targets

Abstract: Neisseria gonorrhoeae is an emerging multidrug resistance pathogen that causes sexually transmitted infections in men and women. The N. gonorrhoeae has demonstrated an emerging antimicrobial resistance against reported antibiotics, hence fetching the attention of researchers to address this problem. The present in-silico study aimed to find putative novel drug and vaccine targets against N. gonorrhoeae infection by the application of bioinformatics approaches. Core genes set of 69 N. gonorrhoeae strains was ac… Show more

“…Furthermore, their physicochemical properties were checked using the Protparam Expasy server ( 22 ) and the TMHMM server was used to check the topology values of all proteins. The most antigenic, stable, and non-allergenic proteins were selected as the vaccine candidates ( 23 , 24 ).…”

“…The V1-Receptor complexes were subjected to Molecular Dynamic Simulations for determining the complex stability. The TLR2 & TLR4 as receptors and the vaccine V1 as ligand were prepared as per the standard protocol of GROMACS as performed in our recent study ( 23 ). The constructed complexes were subjected to production run of 100 ns and results were analyzed using vmd and in house scripts.…”
