In silico analysis of aqueous root extract of Rotula aquatica Lour for docking analysis of the compound 3-O-acetyl-11-keto-β-boswellic acid contents.

ABSTRACT: Molecular docking is a bioinformatics tool used to study and analyse ligand receptor interactions. This helps in identifying the receptors (molecular targets) for different ligands. Using these technologies, compound isolation and drug discovery from herbals is achieved. Herbs are widely used in treatment of various ailments from time immemorial. Phytochemists and drug developers are now interestingly working in developing new molecules that can act effectively than conventional drugs. As they are developing it mostly from herbs they are found to be effective and safer drugs and quantity to be used become minimum. Rotula aquatica Lour is a plant distributed widely in India and used for urinary disorders. The plant root was extracted and studied for its active compounds that possess antiuro
