Isoniazid and thioacetazone may exhibit antitubercular activity by binding directly with the active site of mycolic acid cyclopropane synthase: Hypothesis based on computational analysis

Isoniazid and thioacetazone are the two important antitubercular drugs. In case of thioacetazone it is established that it inhibits mycolic acid cyclopropane synthase but the exact binding site accounting for such inhibition is presently unknown. In case of isoniazid its action on the said enzyme is...
