Pharmacophore mapping, 3D QSAR, docking, and ADME prediction studies of novel Benzothiazinone derivatives
Abstract: Background Tuberculosis is a major public health concern worldwide which is caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis. DprE1 (Decaprenyl Phosphoryl Ribose 2’- Epimerase) is the most challenging target for development of novel anti- tubercular agents because it is a small protein and located into cytoplasmic membrane. So, novel anti-TB drugs did not bound effectively with it. DprE1 catalyzes the oxidation of the 2’ hydroxyl group of DPR (Decaprenyl Phosphoryl D- Ribose) …
