Figure 4From: Discovery of novel inhibitors of Streptococcus pneumoniae based on the virtual screening with the homology-modeled structure of histidine kinase (VicK)Chemical structures of the compounds with inhibitive effects on the growth of S. pneumoniae. These six inhibitors belong to three different classes of chemical structures: one imidazole analogue (compound 6), four furan derivatives (compound 2, 3, 4 and 5) and one derivative of thiophene (compound 1).Back to article page
