IN SILICO STUDY OF BOSWELLIA SERRATA ROXB. EX COLEBR: A WILD ETHNOMEDICINAL PLANT FOR THERAPEUTIC PURPOSE
Journal Title: Int J of Pharm Res & Analy - Year 2014, Vol 4, Issue 2
Abstract
Boswellia serrata Roxb. ex Colebr. is a deciduous tree in the Burseraceae family. It is native to India and Pakistan. Boswellia serrata is in the same botanical Burseraceae family as the tree from which myrrh is harvested. In India, frankincense from the tree is called "salai guggal". In biomedical arena, computer-aided or in silico design is being utilized to expedite and facilitate hit identification, hit-to-lead selection, optimize the absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion and toxicity profile and avoid safety issues. There are over a hundred chemical substances that have been derived from plants for use as drugs and medicines. Medicinal plants containing natural and its synthesize chemical compound belonging to two research targets (Mitogen-activated protein kinase for cancer and Thymidine monophosphate kinase for TB) and two successful targets (HIV protease for HIV and Enoyl-ACP reductase for malaria). Beside that ligand library compounds were also examined for druglikeness. Molecular docking studies were carried out with docking programmed. The virtual screening from ligand library point towards the best score and efficient binding of the ligand 2-ethenyl-6-methylhept-5-en-1-yl acetate with two research target and two successful targets from the ligand library included in study. The synthesize chemical compound having best score comparison to the natural chemical compound present in the Boswellia serrata Roxb. ex Colebr wild medicinal plant.
