What is it about?

A small molecule ligand for AphB was identified by virtual screening and characterized by STD-NMR. The small molecule was shown to be an activator for AphB.

Why is it important?

The identification of the small molecule ligand opens the way for the development of inhibitors of AphB

Perspectives

We utilized STD-NMR for the screening of small molecule ligands for AphB, for the determination of dissociation constants and to identify the AphB domain responsible for binding.
