Abstract/OtherAbstract:

Here, we report a structure-based virtual screening of the ZINC database (containing about five million compounds) by computational docking and the analysis of docking energy calculations followed by in vitro screening against H. pylori urease enzyme. One of the compounds selected showed urease inhibition in the low micromolar range. Barbituric acid and compounds 1a, 1d, 1e, 1f, 1g, 1h were found to be more potent urease inhibitors than the standard inhibitor hydroxyurea, yielding IC(50) values of 41.6, 83.3, 66.6, 50, 58.8, and 60 μM, respectively (IC(50) of hydroxyurea = 100 μM). 5-Benzylidene barbituric acid has enhanced biological activities compared to barbituric acid. Furthermore, the results indicated that among the substituted 5-benzylidene barbiturates, those with para substitution have higher urease inhibitor activities. This may be because the barbituric acid moiety is closer to the bimetallic nickel center in unsubstituted or para-substituted than in ortho- or meta-substituted analogs, so it has greater chelating ability. |
