Abstract

Inhibition of quorum sensing (QS) is an impending approach for targeting Bacterial infection. Fourteen benzo[d]thiazole and 2-pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidin-3-yl)benzo[d]thiazoles analogues were designed and synthesized as promising LasR antagonists with QS inhibition activity. Among the investigated compounds, compounds 3c, 3e, and 8d exhibited the highest percentage inhibition in biofilm formation (77 %, 63.9 %, 69.4 %), pyocyanin production (74.6 %, 64.9, 69.4 %), and rhamnolipids production (58.5 %, 51 %, 54.3 %) in P. aeruginosa, respectively. Additionally, compounds 3c, 3e and 8d achieved IC50 values against Las R equal 1.37 ± 0.35, 1.55 ± 0.24, 1.1 ± 0.15 μM respectively. Also, molecular docking of the target compounds into the LasR binding site co-crystalized "odDHL" revealed their binding with the essential residues for protein inhibition. Additionally, molecular dynamics simulation (MDS) experiments over 200 ns of compound 3c showed its ability to interact with the LasR binding site with dissociation of the protein's dimer confirming its action as a LasR antagonist. The obtained findings inspire further investigation for benzo[d]thiazole and 2-pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidin-3-yl)benzo[d]thiazoles aiming to design and synthesize more potential QS inhibitors.
