Multi-drug resistant microorganism infections with emerging problems that require not only a prevention strategy, but also the development of new inhibitory compounds. Six previously synthesized 5-arylidene-2-thioxothiazolidin-4-one derivatives 1a–f, were screened for inhibitory activity on adenylate kinases of different origins by molecular docking. The compounds 1c and 1d were the most efficient inhibitors of bacterial and some archean adenylate kinases. Hydrogen bond interactions were observed with the residues belonging to the ATP binding site. Moreover human adenylate kinases are poor targets, suggesting that this selectivity offers promising prospectives for refining the structure of our compounds.
多重耐药性微生物感染是新出现的问题,不仅需要预防策略,还需要开发新的抑制化合物。研究人员通过分子对接筛选了之前合成的六种 5-芳基-2-硫酮噻唑烷-4-酮衍生物 1a 至 f,以检测它们对不同来源的腺苷酸激酶的抑制活性。化合物 1c 和 1d 是细菌和一些古猿腺苷酸激酶最有效的抑制剂。与属于 ATP 结合位点的残基之间存在氢键相互作用。此外,人类腺苷酸激酶也是不良靶点,这表明这种选择性为完善我们的化合物结构提供了广阔的前景。
