PRIORIZAÇÃO IN SILICO DE MOLÉCULAS COM AÇÃO SOBRE M. tuberculosis PANTOTENATO SINTETASE

View through CrossRef
Tuberculose é uma doença infecciosa causada pelo Mycobacterium tuberculosis que continua sendo uma das principais causas de morte por doença infecciosa. Este estudo teve como objetivo a identificação de potenciais inibidores da pantotenato sintetase, enzima essencial para a bactéria, através de triagem virtual hierárquica. Modelos baseados na forma e volume moleculares foram construídos e validados para filtrar um banco de dados com estruturas químicas produtos naturais. As moléculas selecionadas foram acopladas na estrutura do alvo molecular, obtido junto ao Protein Data Bank sob o código 3IUB com o programa FRED. O composto ZINC000012489800 foi a mais bem ranqueada. As interações intermoleculares mostraram interações hidrofóbicas, ligações de hidrogênio (aceptoras e doadoras) e iônicas, entre o composto identificado e aminoácidos importantes para o reconhecimento molecular já descritas na literatura. A molécula possui parâmetros farmacocinéticos razoáveis e bom índice de segurança toxicológico. Este estudo demonstra a eficácia dos métodos in silico na identificação de um composto promissor para o tratamento da tuberculose multirresistente, representando um passo importante na busca por novas terapias.
