Four aurones were found to be active in both assays and showed IC50 values below 20 μM in the enzymatic assay. Molecular modelling revealed that the presence of hydroxyl groups was responsible for good compound orientation within the isoenzyme catalytic site and zinc chelation.en© 2014 Elsevier Ltd.
