Potential Molecular Interaction of Nutmeg’s (Myristica fragrans) Active Compound via Activation of Caspase-3
نویسندگان
چکیده
Myristica fragrans Houtt (belongs to the Myristicaceae family) is a Maluku Island (Indonesia) native plant. The seed of M. (Nutmeg) has been used for medicinal benefits. also anti-cancer properties. goal this research was use computer-aided drug design investigate in silico molecular docking selected nutmeg compounds against Caspase-3. Molecular using Malegro Virtual Docker (MVD) software Ver 5.5 performed binding complicated models offer information on critical drug-receptor interactions. most potent ligand Licarin B, which had score -103.07 kcal/mol. B structure formed several hydrogen bonds with Trp214 and Phe250. These findings imply that contains prospective compound could be great agent.
