ABSTRACT
Abirami
M, Kannabiran K., In-Silico docking marine
Streptomyces coumarin-6-ol, 3,
4-dihydro-4, 4, 5, 7-tetramethyl with bacterial and blood protein, Onl J Bioinform, 17(2):129-135, 2016. In
silico docking of
antibacterial coumarin-6-ol, 3, 4-dihydro-4, 4, 5, 7-tetramethyl- (CDTM) with
bacterial and blood coagulation protein is described. Interaction of CDTM with
bacterial drug targets determined with AutoDock
4.2.1. showed least binding energy of -8.12 Kcal/mol
for D-alanine: D-alanine ligase and with vitamin K epoxide reductase complex
subunit 1 -5.71 Kcal/mol, Findings suggested
inhibition of bacterial cell wall synthesis through binding with the protein
D-alanine: D-alanine ligase and anti-coagulant activity by inhibition of
vitamin K synthesis. Antibacterial activity of coumarin
is due to interaction and inhibition of bacterial drug target protein D-alanine
bacterial cell wall synthesis.
Key words: coumarin-6-ol, 3, 4-dihydro-4,
4, 5, 7-tetramethyl; antibacterial activity; molecular docking; D-alanine: D-alanine
ligase; vitamin K epoxide reductase.
