The Chemical Property Position of Bedaquiline Construed by a Chemical Global Positioning System-Natural Product.

ABSTRACT: Bedaquiline is a novel adenosine triphosphate synthase inhibitor anti-tuberculosis drug. Bedaquiline belongs to the class of diarylquinolines, which are antituberculosis drugs that are quite different mechanistically from quinolines and flouroquinolines. The fact that relatively similar chemical drugs produce different mechanisms of action is still not widely understood. To enhance discrimination in favor of bedaquiline, a new approach using eight-score principal component analysis (PCA), provided by a ChemGPS-NP model, is proposed. PCA scores were calculated based on 35 + 1 different physicochemical properties and demonstrated clear differences when compared with other quinolines. The ChemGPS-NP model provided an exceptional 100 compounds nearest to bedaquiline from antituberculosis scree
