Molecular Docking Evaluation of (E)-5-arylidene-2-thioxothiazolidin-4-one Derivatives as Selective Bacterial Adenylate Kinase Inhibitors

Multi-drug resistant microorganism infections with emerging problems that require not only a prevention strategy, but also the development of new inhibitory compounds. Six previously synthesized 5-arylidene-2-thioxothiazolidin-4-one derivatives 1a–f, were screened for inhibitory activity o...
