Hence, purpose of study is the thorough <i>in-silico</i> characterization of interactions between vicilin and chitin oligomer followed by fungal and insecticidal bioassays. This work covers the molecular simulation studies explaining the interactions between <i>Pisum sativum</i> vicilin (<i>Ps</i>V) and chitin oligomer followed by protein bioassay against different pathogens. LC-MS/MS of purified <i>Ps</i>V (∼50 kDa) generated residual data along high pea vicilin homology (UniProtKB ID; P13918). Predicted model (<i>Ps</i>V) indicated the characteristic homotrimer joined through head-to-tail association and each monomer is containing a bicupiDose-response : a publication of International Hormesis Society15593258221108280https://www.ebi.ac.uk/biostudies/studies/S-EPMC9208065biostudies-literature<i>In-silico</i> Studies Calculated a New Chitin Oligomer Binding Site Inside Vicilin: A Potent Antifungal and Insecticidal Agent.PMC9208065Akrem AImran MHussain SRafiq ZSaeed MQKhaliq BIqbal RKSaeed ASaeed QAli ZMehmood Sfalse<i>In-silico</i> Studies Calculated a New Chitin Oligomer Binding Site Inside Vicilin: A Potent Antifungal and Insecticidal Agent.Vicilins are major seed storage proteins and show differential binding affinities toward sugar moieties of fungal cell wall and insect gut epithelium.
