No / Decaprenylphosphoryl-b-d-ribose 20-epimerase (DprE1) is a potential drug target for development of antitubercular agents. Structure based drug discovery approach yielded twenty novel derivatives of benzothiazolylpyrimidine-5-carboxamides (7a–t) which were synthesised by three component one pot reaction involving benzothiazolyl oxobutanamide, thiourea and substituted aromatic benzaldehydes. These derivatives were evaluated for antitubercular activity to determine MIC and compound 7a, 7e, 7f and 7o were found to be potentially active against Mycobacterium tuberculosis (H37Rv). Log P of these compounds was found to be between 2.0 and 3.0 making them suitable for oral dosing. DprE1 selectivity and pharmacokinetic studies were carried out for these compounds of which 7a and 7o were found to be highly selective and bioavailability was found to be above 52% by oral dose. Crystal structure of 7a was studied and molecular packing was determined, it exhibited a triclinic crystal lattice arrangement having hydrogen bonded dimeric arrangement. Drug receptor interactions were studied which exhibited docking in the active site of receptor with hydrogen bonding, hydrophobic interactions, vdW interactions with amino acid residues such as Cys387, Asn385, Lys418, Tyr314, Gln334 and Lys367 respectively. 3D QSAR analysis was carried out by kNN-MFA method to determine and develop theoretical model, best suitable model was found to be based on Simulated Annealing k-Neariest Neighbour Molecular Field Analysis (SA kNN-MFA). The model provided with hydrophobic descriptors in positive side indicating the need of bulky groups, steric and electronegative descriptors in negative coordinates hints with contribution by the electronegative substitutions as favourable and desirable moieties for enhancing the activity. The q2, q2_se and Pred_r2se were found to be 0.5000, 0.6404 and 1.0094 respectively. A pharmacophore model was generated which suggested for necessity of aromatic, aliphatic carbon centre and hydrogen bond donor for development of newer DprE1 selective inhibitors. / Council of Scientific and Industrial Research
