The Mediterranean basin has significant natural resources including a proven diversity of flora. The Anacardiaceae family has around 800 tropical and subtropical species, with some representatives around the Mediterranean. Most of the plants of this family are non- toxic plant. They even have many properties. Our work consists to study the bio-insecticidal power of essential oils of Pistacia lentiscus and Pistacia atlantica of the Anacardiaceae family in the Tlemcen region by molecular modeling methods to inhibition of the enzyme α-amylase which is a digestive enzyme of Dociostaurus maroccanus using phenolics compounds derived from essentiels oil of aromatic plants: Elemol; Spathulenol; Myrcene; Beta- myrcene; Terpinen-4-ol; Bornyl acetate. Elemol give the best docking score, its interactions with α-amylase has the lowest energy score compared to the other complexes.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
