摘要

Abstract Lanosterol 14α-demethylase (CYP51) is an important target for antifungal drugs. An improved three-dimensional model of CYP51 from Candida albicans (CACYP51) was constructed by ligand-supported homology modeling and molecular dynamics simulations. The accuracy of the constructed model was evaluated by its performance in a small-scale virtual screen. The results show that known CYP51 inhibitors were efficiently discriminated ...
