Abstract

The quinolines based drugs and its analogues are widely used as a medicinal drug. In this study, five compounds from quinoline-based pharmaceuticals have been discovered using virtual screening with Autodock software, with binding affinities ranging from 6.6 to 5.4 kcal/mol. The best suitable chemical is levofloxacin, which has a higher drug-likeness and a total drug score of 0.87. Improved receptor (kallikrein 7) Vander-waal bonding with ARG A:50, TRP A:51, LYS A:243, ASN A:239, ASN A:48 is also revealed by levofloxacin docking and bonding studies. Based on the affinity score, levofloxacin was found to have superior pharmacological properties and bonding when compared to other molecules from quinoline-based drugs and kallikrein 7. After thorough in silico research, levofloxacin from quinoline-based medications can be used as a potential treatment target towards development of antibiotic medicine.
