Integrated in Silico Methods for the Design and Optimization of Novel Drug Candidates: A Case Study on Fluoroquinolones – Mycobacterium tuberculosis DNA Gyrase Inhibitors
Abstract
Although almost fully automated, the discovery of novel, effective, and safe drugs is still a long-term and highly expensive process. Consequently, the need for fleet, rational, and cost-efficient development of novel drugs is crucial, and nowadays the advanced in silico drug design methodologies seem to effectively meet these issues. The aim of this chapter is to provide a comprehensive overview of some of the current trends and advances in the in silico design of novel drug candidates with a special emphasis on 6-fluoroquinolone (6-FQ) antibacterials as potential novel Mycobacterium tuberculosis DNA gyrase inhibitors. In particular, the chapter covers some of the recent aspects of a wide range of in silico drug discovery approaches including multidimensional machine-learning methods, ligand-based and structure-based methodologies, as well as their proficient combination and integration into an intelligent virtual screening protocol for design and optimization of novel 6-FQ analogs.
