Abstract
The present research focuses on the molecular docking analysis of the isolated compound from the seaweed “Sargassum wightii” on cancer specific HER2 or HER2/neu also known as CD340. The ethanol derived compounds capable of binding to HER2 receptor is implicated for the breast cancer. The crystal structure of the HER2 protein with the resolution of 1.63Ao (Pdb entry 4RJ3) collected from the pdb website (www.pdb). Missing alignments and the side chains are prepared to fit for the insilico analysis. Seven bioactive compounds isolated from the hydro-alcoholic mixture using GC-MS are docked against HER2 using Schrodinger 2013.1 (Glide version 5.9). The binding sites, glide score and the energy of the 7 compounds with the HER2 protein are compared. The isolated compounds with most negative glide score such as benzoic acid, 2-hydroxy-ethyl ester, methyl salicylate, diethyl phthalate and phytol exhibited efficient in inhibiting the HER2 receptor of breast cancer. The Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics (ADME) properties of the selected highest glide scored compounds are performed using QikProp 3.6 module from Schrodinger-Maestro software. The compounds were showed significant ADME properties in basic criteria of Molecular weight (MW), H-Bond donor, H-Bond acceptor and log P (O/W). The results of the study showed that the compounds of “Sargassum wightii” may be a good target for breast Cancer.

Ayurvedic medicinal therapeutic approaches for inflammatory and neurodegenerative disorders
Usually, in our elderly population, neurodegenerative disorders occur due to neuron death. Alzheimer?s disease (AD) is an irreversible and progressive neurodegenerative disease. Dementia is the leading cause of AD, which affects about 30 million people worldwide. According to the World Alzheimer report 2018, a new case of dementia develops every ...read more
Recent Advances in Biotransformation of Bioactive Terpenoids using Aspergillus niger
Biotransformation is the reaction catalyzed by biological catalysts of either isolated enzymes or whole cell cultures of microorganisms. This process has been extensively applied in the conversion of bioactive terpenoids with high regio- and stereospecifity. This process has been also applied in the lead discovery and development. Aspergillus niger has ...read more
