Treponema Denticola has a virulent protein called cystalysin, which causes periodontitis. Therefore, it is of interest to design efficient drug that may have fewer side effects than the present clinical drugs, considering most of them are multidrug resistant. The molecular docking analysis show that the selected thiazo derivatives (1-6) show better binding energies and amino acid interactions compared to the clinically proven drugs proving to be potential inhibitors against the protein.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
