Abstract

Objective: To evaluate the octapeptides related to human histatin 8 by in-silico and in-vitro studies.

Method: Schrodinger, LLC and Ellman's method.

Results: The compound HH1 and HH2 was found to be potent docking score of âˆ’9.494 and âˆ’7.401 against acetylcholinesterase (AChE) enzyme. The IC50 value of HH1 and HH2 was found to be 0.39Â±0.28 and 0.78Â±0.15 Î¼g/mL. However, these compounds are shown to be highly effective as compared with the control AChE inhibitor donepezil (0.065Â±0.0050 Î¼g/mL).

Conclusion: In-silico docking study was conducted for the designed octapeptides related to human histatin 8 against AChE enzyme shows significance binding affinity toward HH1 and HH2 peptides and the AChE inhibitory activity of octapeptides shown to be a highly potent inhibitor as compared with control donepezil.
