Originální abstrakt

In present study, compounds with cholesterol lowering activity viz., squalestatin analogs were screened for inhibitory effect towards CrtM enzyme of S. aureus. We used structure-based drug design approach including molecular docking studies followed by molecular dynamics simulations and binding free energy calculations for the identification of cholesterol lowering agents against CrtM. The investigation reveals squalestatin analog 25 and squalestatin analog 36 as potential candidates. The in-depth analysis revealed important amino acids critical for binding into the active site of CrtM. The compounds under investigation were further screened down based on their in-silico ADMET analysis.
