Summary: | Quinolones are an important class of heterocyclic compounds that possess interesting biological activities like antimicrobial, antitubercular, and antitumor. The objective of this study is to evaluate in silico the antitumoral and antimycobacterial activity of some quinolone derivatives by using CLC Drug Discovery Workbench Software. Docking studies were carried out for all ligands, and the docking scores were compared with the scores of standard drugs, topotecan and levofloxacin. The docking studies have been carried out to predict the most possible type of interaction, the binding affinities, and the orientations of the docked ligands at the active site of the target protein. |
