Abstract:
Distichochlamys citrea , an endemic plant species found only in Vietnam, traditionally known effective for internal inflammation and infection, thus considered as a promising natural antibiotic source. A variety of experimental‐computational methodologies were utilised. Gas chromatography‐mass spectrometry reveals twenty‐one bioactive components ( C1 ‐ C21 ) is found in the n ‐hexan extract. Bioassays indicate its total antibiotic activity of high significance against Streptococcus pyogenes (IZD 14±2.0 mm; MIC value of 156.25 μg.mL −1 ). Docking simulation predicts C17 (DS −12.9 kcal.mol −1 ; RMSD 1.34 Å) 〉 C14 (DS −12.3 kcal.mol −1 ; RMSD 1.58 Å) 〉 C16 (DS −12.0 kcal.mol −1 ; RMSD 1.30 Å) as the most effective inhibitors towards S‐ribosylhomocysteine lyase structure (UniProtKB: P0C0C7). Quantitative structure‐activity relationships suggest all the compounds are predicted with high biocompatibility in reference for oral drug development, and specifiy C1 ‐ C21 especially safe for use in vertebrates. The results preliminarily confirm the significant antibiotic activity of Distichochlamys citrea and encourage further in‐depth experiments in order to harness its pharmacological potentiality.
