Abstract
Aim
To investigate potent tyrosinase inhibitor by drug docking analysis.
Methods
The study involved the protein structure of tyrosinase of B. megaterium to investigate the drugs designed by Chem office and drug docking was performed by AutoDock to investigate QSAR activity of the drug.
Results
Tyrosinase is an important enzyme linked with disorders like Parkinson's, melanogenesis, and hyper pigmentation, and studies on selection tyrosinase inhibitor and its implication in drug therapy is an urgent need. We have investigated five drugs which showcased tyrosinase inhibitor activity when tested by QSAR analysis in AutoDock. Docking study was done with the tyrosinase of B. megaterium, and results highlighted potent binding affinity of the drugs with binding energy in the range of −06.00 kcal/mol. In view, designed drugs show potential as tyrosinase inhibitor and may be used further for study.
Conclusion
All five drugs docked successfully with binding energy in the range of −06.00 kcal/mol suggested significant results.
