An efficient and facile green synthesis of bisindole methanes as potential Mtb FtsZ inhibitors

Abstract: The rising multidrug-resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) strain made current anti-TB drug therapy ineffective and became a major health concern globally; hence it is crucial to develop new molecules against vital targets with a novel mechanism. Mtb Filamenting temperature sensitive protein Z (FtsZ), a tubulin homolog plays a major role in bacterial cell division, in the presence of GTP recruiting essential proteins for cell division and considered to be a potential target for drug discovery. Most of Mtb… Show more

“…Several ftsZ inhibitors have been found to be effective against Mtb, including natural products containing curcumin, coumarins, berberine, and resveratrol, small-molecule compounds comprising bisindole methane derivatives, benzamides, taxanes, and rhodamine derivatives, and some polypeptides and nucleic acids [107][108][109][110]. Most of these compounds have been tested in vitro.…”

“…Studies on the biological and pharmacological activities of bis(indolyl)methanes (BIMs) have gained significant interest. [29][30][31] However, there is a lack of interest in their photophysical, dynamical, and thermodynamic properties under different conditions. We considered the spectroscopic and photophysical parameters along with the thermodynamic data for this molecular system in this biomimetic microheterogeneous media to be very helpful in developing a better understanding of the nature of binding, and also in assessing the biodistribution of this dye system within various bioenvironments.…”
