Abstract
Salmonella, that is multidrug resistant (MDR) poses a serious threat to people. An essential
enzyme needed for cell growth and survival, TrmD is an S-adenosyl methionine (AdoMet or SAM)dependent
methyl transferase that creates themethylationm1G37 in tRNA pro. It is distinct from
its eukaryotic and archeal cousin Trm5. In-vitro tests of the effectiveness of Actinomycetes against
Salmonella Typhimurium, homology modeling of the target protein, molecular docking,
predictions of the ADME/T properties of particular antibacterial molecules, research into the
druglikeness of particular ligands, and computational quantum mechanical modeling of particular
hits are all objectives of this study. In order to comprehend the inhibitory mechanism and the
spatial orientation of the ligands, as well as to identify important amino acid residues within the
substrate-binding pocket that can be used for structure-based drug design, the study offers an
insight into biomolecular interactions. The target protein (modeled using MODELLER) of
Salmonella Typhimurium (LT2) was docked with a variety of natural products, kinase inhibitors,
nucleoside mimics, and indole derivatives. After the compounds were narrowed, the compounds
that were able to be effective against target protein and bind with the amino acid L138 in the
active site were found to be one Natural Products; Antineoplaston, five kinase inhibitors 2-(4Fluorophenyl)-N-[2-(1H-indol-3-yl)ethyl] acetamide; N-benzyl-2-(2-methyl-1H-indol-3-yl)acetamide; 1-(1,3-Dimethylpyrazol-4-yl)-3-[(2R)-1-hydroxy-3-phenylpropan-2-yl]urea; ; 1-[(2S)-1Hydroxy-3-phenylpropan-2-yl]-3-(1-pyridin-4-ylethyl)urea;1-(1,5-Dimethylpyrazol-3-yl)-3-[(2S)1-hydroxy-3-phenylpropan-2-yl]urea
three indole derivative (N-[(3,4-dimethoxyphenyl)methyl]3-(1H-indol-6-yl)propenamide;N-[2-(6-methoxy-1H-indol-3-yl)ethyl]-3-phenylpropanamide and2-(4-fluorophenyl)-N-[2-(5-methoxy-1H-indol-3-yl)ethyl]acetamide. Similarly, two nucleosidemimetics 7-[(3R)-1-Benzoylpyrrolidin-3-yl]-N-methylthieno[2,3-b] pyrazine-6-carboxamide and[3-(2-Methylpropyl)-1,2-oxazol-5-yl]-[(3S)-3-(1H-pyrazolo[3,4-b] pyridin-6-yl) piperidin-1-yl]methanone were found to be effective. Natural Product Antineoplaston's DFT calculation
revealed that the substance was a stable and reactive molecule with drug-like properties.
