Computational analysis of ligand–receptor interactions in wild-type and mutant erythropoietin complexes

BACKGROUND: Erythropoietin (EPO), a pleiotropic cytokine, binds to its receptor (EPOR) in bone marrow, activating a signaling cascade that results in red blood cell proliferation. A recently discovered naturally occurring EPO mutation (R150Q) at active site 1 (AS1) of the protein was shown to attenu...
