Graphical Abstract Abstract. Black tea is a very widel dely accepted and popular beverage that has attracted cted the research limelight and has exhibited multifac ifaceted health effects due to the presence of of wide range of pharmacologically active ve molecules. This paper aims to explore the an antioxidant potentials of black tea catechins by in in silico molecular GRIP docking studies. Basing ng on the result of dock score epicatechin gallate, ate, catechin, epicatechin, epigallocatechin gallate a e all exhibited significant antioxidant potentials s against the targeted enzymes. catechin molecules at me mechanistic level.

MMFF is a atomic co-ordinates. The key parameters for class II force field designed to be a transferable flexible docking include energy functions, force field for pharmaceutical compounds that protein catalytic sites and active residues accurately treats conformational energetics and (Meruva et al., 2014). For rapid, accurate non-bonded interactions. Molecular docking protein-peptide and protein-ligand docking, energy evaluations are usually carried out with GRIP™ by V Life software is a novel the help of scoring function like dock score, PLP methodology available for rigid as well as score, potential mean force (PMF) score, steric flexible docking purposes. It makes use of a set and electrostatic score. PLP score or Piecewise of ligands with its conformers to be docked into Linear Potential scoring function calculates both the receptor cavity. This software helps to search the shape and hydrogen bond complementarity of for the active sites, consists of pre-computation poses to the active site. The PLP score is a pair of grids and tries to maximize favorable wise additive scoring function. The PLP function interaction and minimize unfavorable and is incorporated by the MDS V Life Science repulsive interaction by proving the best possible software in the GRIP docking method which orientation. GRIP scoring function allows for fast calculates the ligand-receptor binding affinity in and precise capturing of ligand-receptor terms of the PLP score. The PLP score is interactions in the active sites of proteins. In designed to enable flexible docking of ligands to GRIP docking, unique conformers of a set of perform a full conformational and positional ligands are considered as input and offers the search within a rigid binding site. These advantages of wide range of parameterizations, molecules were docked into the active site of both ligand guided as well as cavity guided 4B3E (copper-zinc superoxide dismutase), 3KIJ docking options, considers hydrogen bonding, (crystal structure of human peroxidase) and repulsions and dispersion interactions with 1DGB (catalase) that can be obtained as co- manual, automated and batch mode operations crystallized with bicarbonate ion or NADPH or (Jadhav et al.; De et al., 2017). by the use of cavities. The parameters fixed for docking simulation were: number of placements Materials and Methods is 100, rotation angle at 10o, exhaustive method, The Proteins used for GRIP Docking include ligand-wise results-10, scoring function-PLP Copper-zinc superoxide dismutase (4B3E), score. By rotation angle, ligand would be rotated glutathione peroxidase (3KIJ) and erythrocyte inside the receptor cavity to generate different catalase (1DGB) of Homo sapiens were used for poses of ligand inside the receptor cavity.
