Studi In Silico Gendarusin A, B, C, D Dan E Untuk Prediksi Aktivitas Terhadap Enzim Cyp17a1 Sebagai Afrodisiaka

ABSTRACT: 12 flavonoid compounds are found in n-butanol fraction of Justicia gendarusa Burm.f. However, only five of  them  have  been  structurally  identified  namely  gendarusin  A,  B,  C,  D  and  E.  These  compounds  are found  in  male  contraception  made  from  Justicia  gendarusa  Burm.f.  whose  one  of  the  side  effects  is  the increase in libido. This study aims to investigate the aphrodisiac activity of Gendarusin A, B, C, D and E as well as to investigate the quantitative relationship of structure-activity. The method used in this study was in silico using Molegro Virtual Docker and SPSS programs. The results of Molegro program showed the interaction between ligand and receptor as well as the rerank score which  was the calculation of the total bonds. Docking was conducted to these five gendarusin compounds on the CYP17A1 enzyme (PDB ID: 3RUK). In the quantitative relationship of Structure-Activity, only the electronic parameters would be processed  using  SPSS  program  since  the  value  of  lipophilic  and  derivative  steric  parameters  of gendarusin were equal. The electronic parameters to be analyzed were hydrophobic bond, van der waals bond and hydrogen bond. Upon the docking, Gendarusin A, B and C were predicted to have aphrodisiac activity. Gendarusin C had the highest activity. There  was a linear correlation between in silico activity and electronic parameters stated in the following equation : Log A = -0.003vdw + 1.940 (n=5; r = 0.998; s = 0.0088; F = 880.308; Sig. = 0.000) The  equation  expresses  that  the  electronic  parameters  have  a  meaningful  linear  correlation  with  the activity of gendarusin as aphrodisiac.
