    Abstract: Investigate the protein–ligand binding affinity and evaluate the receptor binding abilities of different classes of ligands for APOE4 through molecular docking studies. The polymorphic nature of human Apo E gene encodes one of 3 common epsilon (ε) alleles (ε2, ε3, and ε4), reported to influence the risk of cardiovascular diseases. Structural basis ... Show More
