In silico study on Penicillin derivatives and Cephalosporins for upper respiratory tract bacterial pathogens

Abstract: Upper respiratory tract infection (URTI) is an acute infection which involves the upper respiratory tract: nose, sinuses, tonsils and pharynx. URT infections are caused mainly by pathogenic bacteria like Streptococcus pneumoniae, Haemophilus influenzae and Staphylococcus aureus. Conventionally, β-lactam antibiotics are used to treat URT infections. Penicillin binding proteins (PBPs) catalyze the cell wall synthesis in bacteria. β-Lactam antibiotics like Penicillin, Cephalosporins, Carbapenems and Monobactams i… Show more

“…The lower docking score was the better stability level between ligand and receptor so the stronger bonds will be formed. The negative value of binding energy change (ΔG) reveals that the binding process is spontaneous it could fit well in the binding pocket receptor forming most stable drug receptor energetically [26]. Larger the negative value of binding energy, greater the chemical be accepted as a drug [27].…”

“…Thus, greater the energy released on the binding of a ligand to the protein, greater will be the susceptibility of the ligand to associate with that protein that is it supports the fitting of the drug to the target molecules. The negative value of binding energy change (ΔG) reveals that the binding process is spontaneous it can fit well in the receptor cavity forming most stable drug receptor energetically [22]. Larger the negative value of binding energy, greater the chemical be accepted as a drug [12].…”

“…Five of the six Yops have catalytic activities which are essential for their pathogenic functions. Based on the literature survey 19,20 the interactions and fitness scores of the complex suggest that this compound can act as an antimicrobial drug against Yersinia enterocolitica. Thus, it could a potent antibacterial agent for this microbe.…”
