Pseudomonas aeruginosa, one of the most notorious organisms, causes fatal diseases like-, meningitis, pneumonia as well as worsens the prognosis of cystic fibrosis patients. It is also multi-drug resistant and resists a wide range of antibiotics. Attempts have been made to reduce its virulence/pathogenic potential using a number of organic compounds. For this purpose, the Quorum sensing (QS) system of P. aeruginosa was targeted, which regulates its virulence. Pseudomonas Quinolone System (PQS), one of the four quorum sensing systems, producing pyocyanin pigment was chosen. 2-heptyl-3-hydroxy-4-quinolone (HHQ) is a ligand which binds to PQS protein is responsible for pyocyanin pigment production. Attempts were made to find a compound analogous to HHQ which could bind to PQS active site and inhibit the pigment formation. In-silico analysis was performed to estimate possible interactions and to find/predict the possible PQS inhibitors. Display omitted
