Pharmacophore modeling for anti-Chagas drug design using the fragment molecular orbital method.

Pharmacophore modeling for anti-Chagas drug design using the fragment molecular orbital method.

Chagas disease, caused by the parasite Trypanosoma cruzi, is a neglected tropical disease that causes severe human health problems. To develop a new chemotherapeutic agent for the treatment of Chagas disease, we predicted a pharmacophore model for T. cruzi dihydroorotate dehydrogenase (TcDHODH) by f...
