an enzymatic assay in conjunction with MD simulations to predict binding mode (depicted). We found that potency was enhanced by using rings to join a carboxylic acid to the central rhodanine ring and that the rhodanine ring could be replaced with alternative heterocycles.

绕丹宁环可以增强效力,并且
绕丹宁环可以用替代杂环取代。
