Medicinal Plants Database and Three Dimensional Structure of the Chemical Compounds from Medicinal Plants in Indonesia
During this era of new drug designing, medicinal plants had become a very interesting object of further research.
Pharmacology screening of active compound of medicinal plants would be time consuming and costly. Molecular docking is one of the in silico method which is more efficient compare to in
vitro or in vivo method for its capability of finding the active
compound in medicinal plants. In this method, three-dimensional structure becomes very important in the molecular docking methods, so we need a database that provides information on
three-dimensional structures of chemical compounds from medicinal plants in Indonesia. Therefore, this study will prepare a database which provides information of the three dimensional
structures of chemical compounds of medicinal plants. The database will be prepared by using MySQL format and is
designed to be placed in http://herbaldb.farmasi.ui.ac.id website so that eventually this database can be accessed quickly and easily by users via the Internet.
