Abstract

Triclosan (TCA) is an antibacterial and antimicrobial compound that is incorporated into toothpaste, soap, and liquid dishwasher. Continuous TCA exposure may contribute to the emergence of antibiotic-resistant bacteria in the microbiome. Triclosan also reacts to form dioxins, which bioaccumulate and are toxic to aquatic organisms, impedes the thyroid hormone metabolism of the human body. Laccases are multi copper-containing enzymes that can degrade the aromatic compounds and thus reduce their toxicity. To effectively degrade the compound, it is essential to understand the molecular function of the enzyme. Hence, a molecular docking study of laccase enzymes with Triclosan was done. The Tramates versicolor laccase structure was retrieved from PDB and ligand structure was taken from Pubchem. The binding mode and interaction of TCA and laccase were studied using Auto dock Vina software and the stability of the docked complex had been explored via Molecular Dynamics (MD) simulation study using Schrodinger Desmonde. The binding affinity score was found to be −6.5kcal/mol. The majority of the residues in RMSF were within the 2.5Å limit. The radius of gyration remained within the range from 21.7 to 22.1Å for Laccase – TCA complex throughout the 50 ns simulation. MD simulation results show that the enzyme complex remains stable all through the catalytic action.
