Computational Studies of Beta Amyloid (Aβ42) with p75NTR Receptor: A Novel Therapeutic Target in Alzheimer’s Disease

Figure 2

Docked complex of p75NTR ectodomain with Aβ42. The N- and C-terminals of the proteins are labelled. (a) van der Waals surface of the complex (p75NTR in blue and Aβ42 in red). (b) cartoon representation (p75NTR in green and Aβ42 in cyan colour). In (a) & (b), Aβ42 specifically binds and formed a favourable contact points at the N-terminal region of the receptor.
