AbstractWith the progressive and ever-increasing antibacterial resistance pathway, the need for novel antibiotic design becomes critical. Sulfonamides are one of the more effective antibiotics against bacteria. In this work, several novel sulfonamide hybrids including coumarin and isoxazole group were synthesized in five steps starting from coumarin-3-carboxylic acid and 3-amino-5-methyl isoxazole and assayed for antibacterial activity. The samples were obtained in good to high yield and characterized by FT-IR, 13C-NMR, 1H-NMR, CHN and melting point techniques. 3D-QSAR is a fast, easy, cost-effective, and high throughput screening method to predict the effect of the compound's efficacy, which notably decreases the needed price for experimental drug assay. The 3D-QSAR model displayed acceptable predictive and descriptive capability to find r2 and q2 the pMIC of the designed compound. Key descriptors, which robustly depend on antibacterial activity, perhaps were explained by this method. According to this model, among the synthesized sulfonamide hybrids, 9b and 9f had the highest effect on the gram-negative and gram-positive bacteria based on the pMIC. The 3D-QSAR results were confirmed in the experimental assays, demonstrating that our model is useful for developing new antibacterial agents. The work proposes a computationally-driven strategy for designing and discovering new sulfonamide scaffold for bacterial inhibition.

= Three-dimensional quantitative structure activity relationship (3D QSAR) analysis was carried out on a et of 56 N,N’-diarylsquaramides, N,N’-diarylureas and diaminocyclobutenediones in order to understand their antagonistic activities against CXCR2. The studies included comparative molecular field analysis (CoMFA) and comparative molecular similarity indices analysis (CoMSIA). Models with good predictive abilities were generated with CoMFA q2 0.709, r2 (non-cross-validated square of correlation coefficient) = 0.951, F value = 139.903, r2 bs = 0.978 with five components, standard error of estimate = 0.144 and the CoMSIA q2 = 0.592, r2 = 0.955, F value = 122.399, r2 bs = 0.973 with six components, standard error of estimate = 0.141. In addition, a homology model of CXCR2 was used for docking based alignment of the compounds. The most active compound then served as a template for alignment of the remaining structures. Further, mapping of contours onto the active site validated each other in terms of residues involved with reference to the respective contours. This integrated molecular docking based alignment followed by 3D QSAR studies provided a further insight to support the structure-based design of CXCR2 antagonistic agents with improved activity profiles. Furthermore, in silico screening was adapted to the QSAR model in order to predict the structures of new, potentially active compounds.

We undertook the three-dimensional (3D) QSAR studies of a series of benzimidazole analogues to elucidate the structural properties required for angiotensin II. The 3D-QSAR studies were performed using the stepwise, simulated annealing (SA) and genetic algorithm (GA) selection k-nearest neighbor molecular field analysis approach; a leave-one-out cross-validated correlation coefficient q2 = 0.8216 and a pred_r2 = 0.7852 were obtained. The 3D QSAR model is expected to provide a good alternative to predict the biological activity prior to synthesis as antihypertensive agents.

A predictive 3D-QSAR model which correlates the biological activities with the chemical structures of a series of 4-phenylpiperidine derivatives as μ opioid agonists was developed by means of comparative molecular field analysis (CoMFA). The stabilities of the 3D-QSAR models were verified by the leave-one-out cross-validation method. Moreover, the predictive capabilities of the models were validated by an external test set. Best predictions were obtained with CoMFA standard model(q2=0.504, N=6, r2=0.968) which revealed how steric and electrostatic interactions contribute to agonists bioactivities, and provided us with important information to understand the interaction of agonists and μ opioid receptor .

The p38 signaling cascade has emerged as an attractive target for the design of novel chemotherapeutic agents for the treatment of inflammatory diseases. Three dimensional quantitative structure- activity relationship (3D- QSAR) studies were performed on a series of 25, 2-aminothiazole analogs as inhibitors of p38α mitogen activated protein (MAP) kinase. The docking results provided a reliable conformational alignment scheme for the 3D-QSAR model. The 3D-QSAR model showed very good statistical results namely q2, r2and r2predvalues for both comparative molecular field analysis (CoMFA) and comparative molecular similarity indices analysis (CoMSIA). The CoMFA and CoMSIA models & docking results provided the most significant correlation of steric, electrostatic, hydrophobic,H-bond donor,H-bond acceptor fields with biological activities and the provided values were in good agreement with the experimental results. The information rendered from molecular modeling studies gave valuable clues to optimize the lead and design new potential inhibitors.

Sortase A (SrtA) is an enzyme that catalyzes the attachment of proteins to the cell wall of Gram-positive bacterial membrane, preventing the spread of pathogenic bacterial strains. Here, one class of oxadiazole compounds was distinguished as an efficient inhibitor of SrtA via the “S. aureus Sortase A” substrate-based virtual screening. The current study on 3D-QSAR was done by utilizing preparation of the structure in the Schrödinger software suite and an assessment of 120 derivatives with the crystal structure of 1,2,4-oxadiazole which was extracted from the PDB data bank. The docking operation of the best compound in terms of pMIC ( pMIC = 2.77 ) was done to determine the drug likeliness and binding form of 1,2,4-oxadiazole derivatives as antibiotics in the active site. Using the kNN-MFA way, seven models of 3D-QSAR were created and amongst them, and one model was selected as the best. The chosen model based on q 2 (pred_ r 2 ) and R 2 values related to the sixth factor of PLS illustrates better and more acceptable external and internal predictions. Values of crossvalidation (pred_ r 2 ), validation ( q 2 ), and F were observed 0.5479, 0.6319, and 179.0, respectively, for a test group including 24 molecules and the training group including 96 molecules. The external reliability outcomes showed that the acceptable and the selective 3D-QSAR model had a high predictive potential ( R 2 = 0.9235 ) which was confirmed by the Y -randomization test. Besides, the model applicability domain was described successfully to validate the estimation of the model.

Background: Development of novel antimalarial agents has been one of the sought areas in medicinal chemistry. In this study the same was done by virtual screening of in-house database on developed QSAR model. </P><P> Methods: A six point pharmacophore model was generated (AADHRR.56) from 41 compounds using PHASE module of Schrodinger software and used for pharmacophore based search. Docking studies of the obtained hits were performed using GLIDE. Most promising hit was synthesized & biologically evaluated for antimalarial activity. </P><P> Result: The best generated model was found to be statistically significant as it had a high correlation coefficient r2= 0.989 and q2 =0.76 at 3 component PLS factor. The significance of hypothesis was also confirmed by high Fisher ratio (F = 675.1) and RMSE of 0.2745. The model developed had good predicted coefficient (Pearson R = 0.8826). The virtual screening on this model resulted in six hits, which were docked against FP-2 enzyme. The synthesized compound displayed IC50 value of 0.27&#181;g/ml against CQS (3D7) and 0.57μg/ml against CQR (RKL9). </P><P> Conclusion: 3D QSAR studies reviled that hydrophobic groups are important for anti-malarial activity while H-donor is less desirable for the same. Electron withdrawing groups at R1 position favours the activity. The biological activity data of the synthesized hit proved that the pharmacophore hypothesis developed could be utilized for developing novel anti-malarial drugs.

Benzoxazoles and Oxazolo-[4,5-b]pyridines  have been reported as potent anti-fungal agents. 3D QSAR tools including CoMFA and CoMSIA have been known to be a promising approaches is to correlate structures and activity which further enable the medicinal chemists to design more potent molecules thus curtailing the cost and time in drug research. CoMFA and CoMSIA studies have been carried out on 31 molecules of benzoxazole and oxazolopyridines in order to determine the structural properties required for effective antifungal activity. 26 compounds were evaluated for establishing QSAR model, which was then validated by predicting the activities of five test set molecules. All the molecules were aligned by SYBYL database alignment which led to a best model with q2 value of 0.835, r2=0.976 and r2pred=0.773. This model was further employed to derive CoMSIA models, a best model with steric, electrostatic, hydrophobic and hydrogen bond acceptor indices exhibited q2 = 0.812, r2=0.971 and r2pred=0.81. The models thus obtained from this study can be useful for the design and development of new potential anti-fungal agents.

Background: High-throughput screening (HTS) of large-compound libraries is a convenient and cost-effective tool for novel drug discovery. However, in many cases, HTS platforms are not well adapted to perform cell-based screening assay with simultaneous identification of the mechanism of action for active compounds. Methods: Previously, we have described a unique double-reporter system that can be used to reveal compounds having antibacterial activity. This construction is based on two genes of Katushka2S and RFP that encode proteins with different imaging signature. The upregulated expression of the first gene attributes directly to translation inhibition in prokaryotes while the high expression of the second one is unambiguously associated with DNA biosynthesis restriction (SOS-response). Results: In the current work, we have applied this system for the identification of novel smallmolecule compounds with antibacterial activity in HTS scale. Compounds were selected from the ChemDiv in-house collection (of total 47K molecules) following the maximum diversity in structure. Based on the obtained results, we have revealed a small series of tetrahydrocarbazole derivatives with antibacterial activity. The hit compound inhibited bacterial growth with a MIC value of 21 μg/ml and blocked DNA biosynthesis. No activity towards translation has been observed. In spite of a relatively moderate potency, as compared to the control sample (erythromycin, MIC=3 μg/ml), this molecule provides good selectivity index (SI>333, HEK239). Conclusion: Tetrahydrocarbazole derivatives can be properly regarded as an attractive starting point for further development and optimization.

Polo-like kinase 1 (PLK1) plays an important role in cell cycle progression and proliferation in cancer cells. PLK1 also contributes to anticancer drug resistance and is a valuable target in anticancer therapeutics. To identify additional effective PLK1 inhibitors, we performed QSAR studies of two series of known PLK1 inhibitors and proposed a new structure based on a hybridized 3D-QSAR model. Given the hybridized 3D-QSAR models, we designed and synthesized 4-benzyloxy-1-(2-arylaminopyridin-4-yl)-1H-pyrazole-3-carboxamides, and we inspected its inhibitory activities to identify novel PLK1 inhibitors with decent potency and selectivity.

To improve the screening efficiency of high-yield neomycin sulfate (NM) Streptomyces fradiae strains after mutagenesis, a high-throughput screening method using streptomycin resistance prescreening (8 μg/mL) and a 24-deep well plates/microplate reader (trypan blue spectrophotometry) rescreening strategy was developed. Using this approach, we identified a high-producing NM mutant strain, Sf6-2, via six rounds of atmospheric and room temperature plasma (ARTP) mutagenesis and screening. The mutant displayed a NM potency of 7780 ± 110 U/mL and remarkably stable genetic properties over six generations. Furthermore, the key components (soluble starch, peptone, and (NH4)2SO4) affecting NM potency in fermentation medium were selected using Plackett-Burman and optimized by Box-Behnken designs. Finally, the NM potency of Sf6-2 was increased to 10,849 ± 141 U/mL at the optimal concentration of each factor (73.98 g/L, 9.23 g/L, and 5.99 g/L, respectively), and it exhibited about a 40% and 100% enhancement when compared with before optimization conditions and the wild-type strain, respectively. In this study, we provide a new S. fradiae NM production strategy and generate valuable insights for the breeding and screening of other microorganisms.
