Design of a modified mouse protein with ligand binding properties of its human analog by molecular dynamics simulations: The case of C3 inhibition by compstatin
(2011)The peptide compstatin and its derivatives inhibit the complement-component protein C3 in primate mammals and are potential therapeutic agents against the unregulated activation of complement in humans, but are inactive ...

Species specificity of the complement inhibitor compstatin investigated by all-atom molecular dynamics simulations
(2010)The development of compounds to regulate the activation of the complement system in non-primate species is of profound interest because it can provide models for human diseases. The peptide compstatin inhibits protein C3 ...
