“…Recently, it was found that this weak acid has properties that are similar to those of drug‐like molecules that function as anti‐cancer, anti‐malarial, anti‐bacterial and anti‐fungal agents . Deducing the mechanism of HAs action, it was observed that this molecule could bind to nucleic acids (DNA/RNA), which resulted in an alteration in the conformation of DNA. This change in DNA conformation after binding was the basic marker step of its anti‐cancer properties .…”

“…Molecular docking plays an important role in binding affinity and orienting different drugs to their bio‐targets such as proteins. Docking of the target compounds into the enoyl‐acyl carrier protein reductase, which is one of the M. tuberculosis enzymes, InhA, shows structural information on the binding interactions . Docking was conducted with a procedure involving multiple conformer shape‐matching alignment of a molecule to a cavity followed by energy minimization on both complexes ( 1 ) and ( 2 ) and a pair of InhA structures in PDB format (http://www.pdb.org) at the binding region.…”

“…It has been found that the metal salen have functional enzyme mimic models as superoxide dismutase [119,120], and Galactose oxidase mimics [121], Cytochrome P-450 mimics [122], Cytochrome P-450 mimics [123], vitamin B 12 [124,125]. Metallosalens are capable of inducing specific damage to DNA or RNA and have been recommended as footprinting agents [126,127]. Salen complexes are versatile (biomimetic) catalysts for important organic transformations.…”
