No Association Between <i>Helicobacter pylori</i> Genotypes and Antibiotic Resistance Phenotypes within Families

In order to identify novel inhibitors of the Helicobacter pylori nickel response regulator (HpNikR) an integrative protocol was performed for half a million compounds retrieved from the ZINC database. We firstly implement a structure-based virtual screening to build a library of potential inhibitors against the HpNikR using a docking analysis (AutoDock Vina). The library was then used to perform a hierarchical clustering of docking poses, based on protein-contact footprints calculation from the multiple conformations given by the AutoDock Vina software, and the drug-protein interaction analyses to identify and remove potential promiscuous compounds likely interacting with human proteins, hence causing drug side effects. 250 drug-like compounds were finally proposed as non-promicuous potential inhibitors for HpNikR. These compounds target the DNA-binding sites of HpNikR so that HpNikR-compound binding could be able to mimic key interactions in the DNA-protein recognition process. HpNikR inhibitors with promising potential against H. pylori could also act against other human bacterial pathogens due to the conservation of targeting motif of NikR involved in DNA-protein interaction.
