Molecular docking analysis of GC-MS analyzed bioactive compounds from the rhizome of Hedychium rubrum with four protein targets.

ABSTRACT: Hedychium rubrum, a traditional medicinal plant of Manipur belonging to the family Zingeberaceae was screened for its biological activity. The methanolic extract of its rhizome was prepared by Soxhlet extraction method and was further subjected to GC-MS to know its bioactive compounds. The in vitro antimicrobial activity assay was tested against five bacteria causing UTI. Klebseilla pneumoniae showed most sensitive followed by Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus and Enterococcus faecalis in the order. Plant extract showed higher inhibition zone than the positive control used. According to the higher quality of compounds from the GCMS results nine compounds were selected for further in silico studies using GOLD software against four protein targets. The phytocons
