Discovery of N-(1-(6-Oxo-1,6-dihydropyrimidine)-pyrazole) Acetamide Derivatives as Novel Noncovalent DprE1 Inhibitors against Mycobacterium tuberculosis

Decaprenylphosphoryl-β-d-ribose oxidase (DprE1) is a promising target for treating tuberculosis (TB). Currently, most novel DprE1 inhibitors are discovered through high-throughput screening, while computer-aided drug design (CADD) strategies are expected to promote the discovery process. In this study, with the aid of structure-based virtual screening and computationally guided design, a series of novel scaffold
