Abstract:
:This review article summarises the possible mechanisms of the protein-ligand interaction, folding, misfolding, aggregation and inhibition of protein aggregates. Under certain stressed condition the folding process deviates from its path and results into misfolding and aggregation of proteins. So aggregates have to be inhibited in order to cure the diseases. In some cases of protein-ligand interaction studies we have seen that the interaction of a protein with more than one ligand may show both type of quenching mechanisms i.e. dynamic as well as static quenching rather than single type of quenching mechanism, that result can be entirely different by the result of binding study utilising single ligand. So, likewise it is hypothesized that if the aggregates are inhibited by using more than one inhibitor may give more fruitful results rather than application of single inhibitor in inhibition and disaggregation of the preformed aggregates. Therefore, we have hypothesized mechanisms for the inhibition of protein aggregates that may assist in curing the neurodegenerative diseases. Thus, besides the mechanism of protein-ligand interaction, folding, misfolding and aggregation; the hypothesized mechanisms for the inhibition of protein aggregates may show new route to researchers either directly or indirectly in treating the diseases.
