In-Silico Peptide:DNA Topology: AEDG Conformation in the hTERT Promoter Groove
Abstract
An all-atom flexible-docking study of the tetrapeptide AEDG (Epitalon) against a model of the hTERT proximal promoter duplex. Conformer ensembles were generated and ranked by interface contact density and predicted binding free energy. Reported as structural reference data characterizing candidate groove geometries; no functional or transcriptional outcome is asserted.
Methods
- 01Conformer generation : RDKit ETKDGv3, MMFF94s minimization
- 02Flexible peptide:dsDNA docking : all-atom predictor (local RTX 4090 array)
- 03Interface scoring : contact maps + ΔG estimate ensemble
- 04Clustering : RMSD-based, top-5 representative poses retained
