In-Silico Structure Based Drug Design of a Potent Inhibitor of Enzyme Lumazine Synthase- A Novel Therapeutic Target for Tuberculosis

Abstract: The biosynthetic pathway of riboflavin is an essential one for Mycobacterium tuberculosis. The inhibitors of the enzymes which are involved in this pathway are not likely to interfere with the enzymes of the mammalian metabolism. So these enzymes could be considered as attractive targets for the development of new drugs against M. tuberculosis. The present study focuses on the enzyme Lumazine synthase (LS) which catalyzes the penultimate step in the riboflavin biosynthesis pathway. The main objective is to sea… Show more
