The opportunistic bacterium , which belongs to ESKAPE group of pathogenic bacteria, is leading cause of infections associated with gram-negative bacteria. causes severe diseases, such as VAP (ventilator-associated pneumonia), meningitis, and UTI (urinary tract infections) among the nosocomial infections contracted in hospitals. The high infection rate and growing resistance to the vast array of antibiotics makes it paramount to look for new therapeutic strategies against this pathogen. The most promising therapeutic targets are the proteins involved in the synthesis of peptidoglycan which is chief component of bacterial cell wall, MurE is one of those enzymes and is responsible for the addition of one unit of meso-diaminopimelic acid (meso-A2pm) to the nucleotide precursor, UDPMurNAc-L-Ala-D-Glu, and aids in the formation of crosslinker pentapeptide chain. The three-dimensional structure of MurE was modelled using homology modelling technique and then vHTS was performed using this model against Approved Drug Library on DrugRep server using AutoDock Vina. Out of 500 drug molecules, two were selected based on estimated binding affinity, interaction pattern, interacting residues, etc. The selected drug molecules are DB12887 (Tazemetostat) and DB13879 (Glecaprevir). Then, MD simulations were performed on native MurE and its complexes with ligands to examine their dynamical behaviour, stability, integrity, compactness, and folding properties. The protein-ligand complexes were then subjected to binding free energy calculations using the MM/PBSA-based binding free energy analysis and the values are -109.788 ± 8.03 and -152.753 ± 11.98 kcal for MurE-DB12887 and MurE-DB13879 complex, respectively. All the analysis performed on MD trajectories for the complexes of these ligands with protein provided plenty of dependable evidences to consider these molecules for inhibition of MurE enzyme from Communicated by Ramaswamy H. Sarma.
