| Abstract: | Red complex organisms are a group of organisms (Porphyromonas gingivalis ATCC 33277, Treponema denticola ATCC 35405, Tannerella forsythia ATCC 43037) that have been identified for the causation of periodontal diseases. Aspirin and diclofenac have been used as regular analgesics. Therefore, it is of interest to document the identification of aspirin and diclofenac binding proteins in the red complex pathogens using the STITCH v.5 pipeline. The virulence properties of these proteins were analyzed using VICMPred and VirulentPred software. Thus, we document 000 number of proteins having optimal binding features with the known analgesics. |
