- Abstract
The angiotensin-converting enzyme, ACE1, is one of enzymes important to blood pressure modulation. The inhibition of protein responsible for blood pressure regulation, the angiotensin-converting enzyme, ACE1, is considered as a method to alleviate the hypertension condition Ashitaba plant might be potent for anti-hypertension because of its activities, such as anti-inflammatory, vasodilation, artherosclerosis, blood sugar regulation, potassium content, stress reduction, and hyperlipidemia. This research aimed to analyse and identify compounds of Ashitaba, spesifically the chalcones which might be potential as ACE inhibitor candidates. The structures of Ashitaba’s chalcones were collected from PubChem, whilst the 3D structure of ACE protein was obtained from PDB database. Further analysis of compound including drug likeness and toxicity were conducted using SWISS ADME and Protox-II softwares, respectively. Result showed that dihydroxychalcone had strong interaction with ACE1 protein as compared to captopril, with score -7.1 kkal.mol−1. The chalcone analyses outcomes obeys all Lipinski Rule of Five (RO5) at all parameters and showed no toxicity result. In conclusion, dihydroxychalcone could be developed for further analysis as ACE1 inhibitor.
