Identification of potential inhibitors for Penicillinbinding protein (PBP) from Staphylococcus aureus
Staphylococcus aureus is an infectious agent that causes severe skin and soft tissue infection in hospitalized patients. Therefore, it is of interest to develop potent inhibitors for S. aureus. Penicillin Binding protein (PBP) is a known drug target for inhibition of cell wall biosynthesis in S. aur...

description | Staphylococcus aureus is an infectious agent that causes severe skin and soft tissue infection in hospitalized patients. Therefore, it is of interest to develop potent inhibitors for S. aureus. Penicillin Binding protein (PBP) is a known drug target for inhibition of cell wall biosynthesis in S. aureus. Hence, PBP was screened with compounds from six databases using virtual screening approaches. Results shows that the screened lead compound produced higher docking score (-9.87 kcal/mol) compared to resistant drugs. Antimicrobial activity using screened lead compounds and resistant drugs showed maximum activity in potential screened compounds compared to resistant compounds. |
