Quercitrin is an anti-lung cancer agent. It is a naturally occurring flavonoid and its derivatives are mainly present in nuts and beverages. It is mainly available as a glycoside, and the quercitrin glycosides are found to prevent the metastasis of cancer. Quercitrin is optimized with 6–311++G(d,p) basis set using the B3LYP method to attain its minimum energy structure. The vibrational studies of the Quercitrin compound were elucidated with reference to Potential Energy Distribution (PED). The geometrical parameters were obtained and correlated with experimental values. To examine the nature of the charge transfer mechanism of Quercitrin, the HOMO-LUMO energy gap is computed. The anti-cancer activity of Quercitrin has been explored using molecular docking study that are used to estimate how the ligand interacts with protein, specifically to identify the best-fit orientation of the ligand, its binding mode, and intermolecular interactions of amino acid residues in the binding region of B-RAF kinase protein. The binding affinity of the compound Quercitrin (-7.14 kcal/mol) was found using AutoDock and validated with a Glide XP score in Schrodinger tool (-8.01 kcal/mol). MD simulations of protein-ligand complexes were monitored for 100 ns, from which the RMSD, RMSF, Rg, H-bonds, and interaction energy calculations were executed. From these investigations, it is identified that the compound quercitrin has maintained good structural stability, compactness, higher Hydrogen bonds, and interaction energies than the Imidazopyridinyl benzamide inhibitor. |
