Аннотация
BACKGROUND: Chagas disease kills around 10,000 people yearly, primarily in Latin America, where it is prevalent. Current treatment has limited chronic effectiveness, is unsafe, and has substantial side effects. As a result, the use of oxadiazole derivatives and similar heterocyclic compounds as bioisosteres are well known, and they are prospective candidates in the hunt for novel anti-Trypanosoma cruzi chemicals. Recent research has revealed that the cysteine protease cruzain from T. cruzi is a validated target for disease treatment.
OBJECTIVE: Thus, using a molecular dynamics simulation, the current study attempted to determine if a significant interaction occurred between the enzyme cruzain and its ligand.
RESULTS: Interactions with the catalytic site and other critical locations were observed. Also, the RMSD values suggested that the molecule under research had stable interactions with its target.
CONCLUSION: Finally, the findings indicate that the investigated molecule 2b can interfere enzymatic activity of cruzain, indicating that it might be a promising antichagasic drug.
