Abstract Efficient determination of proteinogenic amino acid is great relevance, and evaluating the intrinsic interaction this interest with nanotubes play a crucial role in adsorption sensing mechanism, determining measurement index. As such, study apparently sought to examine (proline) on bare surfaces carbon boron nitride, nitride doped aluminum element nanotubes. In accordant geometric optimization, different dispersion models: PBE0, ωB97XD, M06‐2X, B3LYP‐D3(GD3BJ) were used; note that latter used only wave function analysis studies. Studies show strongest belongs (BNAl dop NT), similar more negative energy ‐0.719, ‐1.393, ‐1.001, ‐1.098eV respectively for various benchmarked functionals utilized study. Then highest strength was obtained nanotube (BNNT), at end (i.e. BNAl NT > BNNT BC 2 NNT). tandem energetic carried out suggests might be potent preferred candidate (proline molecule)among other studied nanotubes, respect their respective values

With increasing incidences of antifungal resistance, biofilm formation, and its predilection for vulnerable populations, Candida albicans have been reported to cause a wide range infections, from superficial skin irritations life-threatening systemic diseases. Therefore, understanding addressing the infections associated with has become an urgent imperative in realm global healthcare. As result, this study employed DFT calculations at DFT/ωB97XD/6–311++G (2d, 2p) level optimize geometric properties two compounds: (Z)-N'-(4-(4-bromophenyl)-3-(4-fluorophenyl)thiazol-2(3H)-ylidene)-2-(thiophen-2-yl)thiazole-5-carbohydrazide (4-FBC) (Z)-N'-(4-(4-bromophenyl)-3-(2-fluorophenyl)thiazol-2(3H)-ylidene)-2-(thiophen-2-yl)thiazole-5-carbohydrazide(2-FBC). Significantly, employing spectral analysis techniques such as FT-IR NMR, compounds were characterized identified. Additionally, (4-FBC 2-FBC) exhibited comparable reactivity stability, more promising potential water than gas phase. The Molecular Electrostatic Potential (MESP) density States (DOS) shed light on electrical characteristics intermolecular interactions occurring during chemical processes. Furthermore, natural bond orbital (NBO) provided insights into second-order perturbation energies presence intense interactions, evident order their concentrated interaction thus: 4-FBC_gas (668.34 kcal/mol) > 4-FBC _water (563.98 2-FBC _gas (978.64 Kcal/mol) 2-FBC_water (696.46 Kcal/mol). pharmacokinetics indicated favorable intestinal absorption, low distribution, cytotoxicity profiles, although required further optimization due slower clearance, enzyme immunotoxicity concerns. In addition, molecular docking revealed robust binding affinities significant conventional hydrogen bonds. optimal positions (best pose) complexes determined -8.7, -8.4, -8.3 kcal/mol, -8.6, -8.5, respectively, when interacting 4YDE, 3DRA, 1EAG. These findings provide strong evidence supporting pharmacological suitability effective choices inhibiting treating albicans.

Molecular docking simulations performed assess binding affinity amino acid residues sites two target proteins: farnesyl pyrophosphate synthase (PDB ID: 1RQJ) Plasmodium falciparum 80S ribosome 3J7A). Substantially, results demonstrated that three compounds, namely 3-Methyl-2-(4-methylphenylsulfonamido)-N-(2-oxo-2-(pyrrolidin-1-yl)ethyl)pentanamide (MMOPEP), 3-Methyl-N-(2-oxo-2-(pyrrolidin-1-yl)ethyl)-2-(phenylsulfonamido)pentanamide (MOPEPP), 3-Methyl-2-(4-nitrophenylsulfonamido)-N-(2-oxo-2-(pyrrolidin-1-yl)ethyl)pentanamide (MNOPEP), exhibited tight proteins. These favorable scores compared drugs, indicating their agents. Additionally, high electrophilicity index recorded for further supports suitability collectively suggest have promising interactions proteins, effectiveness against malaria.
