Exploring Citrus sinensis Phytochemicals as Potential Inhibitors for Breast Cancer Genes BRCA1 and BRCA2 Using Pharmacophore Modeling, Molecular Docking, MD Simulations, and DFT Analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Structure-activity relationship (SAR) is considered to be an effective in silico approach when discovering potential antagonists for breast cancer due to gene mutation. Major challenges are faced by conventional SAR in predicting novel antagonists due to the discovery of diverse antagonistic compounds. Methodologyand Results: In predicting breast cancer antagonists, a multistep screening of phytochemicals isolated from the seeds of the Citrus sinensis plant was applied using feasible complementary methodologies. A three-dimensional quantitative structure-activity relationship (3D-QSAR) model was developed through the Flare project, in which conformational analysis, pharmacophore generation, and compound alignment were done. Ten hit compounds were obtained through
