ABSTRACT

Grape Red Vitis Vinifera ( Manto Negro Red Grape) belonging to family vitaceae is one of the most economically important plant, widely cultivated and consumed fruits as they rich in the phtyochemicals like phenolic acids, stilbenes, anthocyanins, and proanthocyanidins which are strong antioxidants. The compositions of phytochemicals in grapes however, vary greatly among the different varieties. The sugars and the organic acids present in the grape are important phytochemicals responsible to the nutrition and sensory properties of the fruits. In this study, we have carried out the binding efficiency of 18 compounds present in the Red Vitis Vinifera with the seven non structural dengue virus proteins through in silico methods. By virtual screening and docking result, we have found that 2, 6-piperazinedione, dioxime and Succinic acid, hex-4-yn-3-yl propyl ester has highest binding affinity for these proteins.
