In Silico Protein-Protein Interaction of Pterois volitans Venom with Cancer Inducers of Helicobacter pylori.
Applied Biochemistry and Biotechnology 2021 November 30
Gastric cancer is a pathological condition induced by the bacteria Helicobacter pylori. Targeting the key virulence factors of H. pylori causing gastric cancer is a promising method for treating gastric cancer. Recently, research has been focused on analyzing the adrenergic, cholinergic, and anti-cancer properties of their venom proteins. Testing the anti-cancer activity of the lethal proteins in the venom of P. volitans provides a bioactive compound for cancer treatment. Still, it is also helpful to eliminate the ecological imbalance caused by these fish in the marine environment. This study focuses on an in silico approach using Z-dock to analyze the bioactive prospective of the venom proteins of P. volitans against the essential virulence proteins of H. pylori responsible for inducing cancer. Our in silico docking study using a computational model of the venom proteins and H. pylori proteins has displayed the possible interactions between these proteins. The results revealed that P. volitans hyaluronidase and PV toxin's venom proteins effectively interact with H. pylori proteins Cag A, Cag L, GGT, Cag D, and urease that may be promising proteins in cancer therapy.
