Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) is a virus that attacks the immune system. Sambiloto (Andrographis Paniculata Ness) is a medicinal plant that has some active coumpunds and is used to prevent and treat some diseases. The purpose of this study was to determine candidate active compounds from sambiloto plant that able to inhibit the work of HIV-1 protease enzyme using the Insilico method. The data of chemical compound of sambiloto was obtained from pubchem site and the structure of HIV-1 protease receptor got from Protein Data Bank with the code PDB 1D4H. The molecular docking results showed bisandrographolide and phytol have potential as anti-HIV drugs compared to amprenavir as a comparison ligand.
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.
