Abstract:As a major public health problem, the prevalence of Acinetobacter baumannii (A. baumannii) infections in hospitals due to the pathogen’s multiple-antibiotic resistance has attracted extensive attention. We previously reported a series of 1,3-diamino-7H-pyrrolo[3,2-f]quinazoline (PQZ) compounds, which were designed by targeting Escherichia coli dihydrofolate reductase (ecDHFR), and exhibited potent antibacterial activities. In the current study, based on our molecular-modeling study, it was proposed that PQZ co… Show more
