Deoxyribonucleic Acid (DNA) has been a known cellular target for many antibacterial and anticancer agents due
to its gene expression tendencies. The interaction of drugs with nucleic acid is one of the important features in
pharmacology and plays a significant role in understanding the mechanism of drug action and in designing of
more efficient drugs with minimal side effects. Furans have been known since long and are often claimed to have
possessed various medicinal and therapeutic tendencies. In the current research work, two class of molecules viz,
2,4-bis(4-amidinophenyl)furans and reversed diamidino 2,5-diarylfurans, were computationally studied for their
relative binding strengths and stable complex formation tendencies with DNA (PDB Id: 4AH0). Molecular docking
was performed to predict binding pocket of the drug in the vicinity of DNA and molecular dynamics wa.. View More»
