Triosephosphate isomerase from Fasciola hepatica: high‐resolution crystal structure as a drug target
The high‐resolution crystal structure of triosephosphate isomerase from F. hepatica was solved at 1.51 Å resolution in its monoclinic form, revealing details of the dimer interface critical for enzyme function. Molecular docking with the fasciolocide triclabendazole suggests selective binding near nonconserved residues, highlighting this enzyme as a ...
