Natural compounds as potential Hsp90 inhibitors for breast cancer-Pharmacophore guided molecular modelling studies

Breast cancer is one of the major impediments affecting women globally. The ATP-dependant heat shock protein 90 (Hsp90) forms the central component of molecular chaperone machinery that predominantly governs the folding of newly synthesized peptides and their conformational maturation. It regulates the stability and function of numerous client proteins that are frequently upregulated and/or mutated in cancer cells, therefore, making Hsp90...
