INTRODUCTION
Normally we start from the plant and get the useful molecule. Here we start with knowing which molecule would affect a key enzyme, and finding which plants could be a source of that particular molecule .
Development is much faster than conventional
screening. We just need to test one molecule, where
in the traditional way, they looked at 10,000.
SELENERGY
• Inverse docking software predicts interaction between ligand and protein.
• It is database of 7000 proteins structures with annotated biological property
• Provides the estimation of synergy that molecule have on set of proteins.
Ligand finding synergy with proteins
STUDY ON ε-VINIFERIN
• Using this inverse docking software biological targets of ε-viniferin are get identified
• Among 400 screened proteins two targets are retained
• It shows selectivity for PDE4 and DR,other PDE subtypes(1,2,3,5,6)are not retained.
• This selectivity was confirmed by evaluation of TNFα and IL-8 secretion.
STUDY ON LIMNOCITRUSS
• Another study on identification of binding site targets of meranzin using selenergy
• Among 400 screened proteins 3 targets were selected(cox1,cox2,PPARgamma)
STUDY ON TOFISOPAM
• The racemic form of drug is used to treat anxiety in olden days.
• By applying drug reposition strategy to tofisopam using selenergy revealed that the isomers are able to fit with PDE4.
ADVANTAGES
• Accelerate drug discovery and development shortens the time and cost of R&D(finds new appplications of new plants)
• Drug reposition(target hoping)• Decreases plant usage.
