Resumo

A leishmaniose é uma doença negligenciada sendo considerada uma das maiores endemias do mundo. Os parasitas causadores da doença desenvolveram resistência contra os medicamentos utilizados na farmacoterapia da doença. Devido a isso, novos compostos precisam ser planejados para tratar com eficácia essa parasitose. Sendo assim, neste paper utilizamos abordagens de modelagem molecular para planejar novos inibidores da enzima Diidroorotato desidrogenase (DHODH), alvo molecular contra leishimaniose. Inicialmente utilizamos modelagem molecular por homologia para construir a enzima DHODH, posteriormente o Metronidazol e Benzonidazol foram utilizados como arcabouços moleculares para desenvolvimento dos novos compostos. Em seguida, o método de docking molecular foi aplicado para avaliar o modo de interação dos compostos com o sítio de ligação da enzima. O modelo enzimático obteve 96% de seus resíduos em regiões favoráveis durante seu processo de validação. Nas simulações de docking, os compostos foram capazes de interagir favoravelmente com o local de ligação e exibiram interações com resíduos da proteína.
