Bioinformatics-based Analysis of the Variability of MPOX Virus Proteins
Letters in Drug Design & Discovery(2023)
摘要
Background:: Previously restricted to remote areas of Central and Western Africa, the MPOX virus-based disease, also known as monkeypox, has now spread to more than 90 countries and has become endemic. As a consequence, the MPOX virus has become a global public health concern. Objective:: The objective of this study was to conduct a computational-multiparametric study (at the genomic and proteomic levels) of the biological sequences that express the MPOX virus envelopes in order to fathom the physicochemical regularities of these proteins. objective: To carry out a computational multiparametric analysis of the amino acid sequences of proteins expressed by the MPOX virus genes to better understand the physicochemical regularities of these proteins Methods:: Using computer programs, we determined the polarity index method (PIM) profile and protein intrinsic disorder predisposition (PIDP) for each studied protein. Results:: The UniProt database was able to identify sequences similar to those of the MPOX virus expressed thanks to the computational regularities found in the virus' envelope sequences. Conclusion:: The polarity index method and protein intrinsic disorder predisposition profiles could aid in elucidating the sequence-level structural regularities of the MPOX virus envelopes.
