摘要: Using a variety of techniques, including sequence alignment, secondary structure prediction, molecular mechanics and dynamics, we have constructed model for the three-dimensional P-450arom (human aromatase) based on that P-450cam, only cytochrome P-450 enzyme which crystal is known. The predicted found to be in good agreement with current experimental data; both direct, from site-directed mutagenesis studies, indirect, consideration structures activities known substrates inhibitors.
