Antibacterial Evaluation and Virtual Screening of New Thiazolyl-Triazole Schiff Bases as Potential DNA-Gyrase Inhibitors

Abstract: The global spread of bacterial resistance to drugs used in therapy requires new potent and safe antimicrobial agents. DNA gyrases represent important targets in drug discovery. Schiff bases, thiazole, and triazole derivatives are considered key scaffolds in medicinal chemistry. Fifteen thiazolyl-triazole Schiff bases were evaluated for their antibacterial activity, measuring the growth inhibition zone diameter, the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC), and the minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC), agains… Show more

“…All the complexes exhibited antifungal activity with MIC value of 48.83 μg/mL against C. albicans and C. neoformans (fungal strains), comparable to amphotericin B (an antifungal drug) except [Cu(BEB)OAc] with MIC value of 195.3 μg/mL ( Table 5 ). The in vitro antifungal activity exhibited by the as-synthesized compounds ( Figure 8 ) can be explained on the basis Overtone’s Concept and Tweedy’s Chelation Theory [ 10 , 16 , 23 , 26 , 31 ]. The minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) displayed in Table 5 and Figure 7 , describes the susceptibility of the selected microorganisms in the order; S. aureus (48.83 µg/mL) > E. faecalis (195.3 µg/mL) > P. aeruginosa (390.6 µg/mL) > K. pneumoniae (781.3 µg/mL) towards the [Cu(BEB)SCN].…”

“…The MolDock score functions were used with a 0.3° grid resolution. The binding sites were defined to any residues that were a distance of 12 Å away from the co-crystallized tetrazole-based antifungal drug and fluconazole in the complex crystal structures of the enzymes [ 48 , 49 , 50 , 51 ].…”
