| Abstract | The 4-hydroxyphenylpyruvate dioxygenase (HPPD) is a relevant target protein for therapeutic and agrochemical research. It is an iron-dependent enzyme, and its inhibition has very different effects on plants and animals. In animals, the enzyme has an important role in the catabolism of tyrosine, and in the plant, it operates in the cascade of photosynthesis. Potent HPPD inhibitors have been described, and all contain the 1,3-diketone group in its shape. In this research, we carried out a study of the interaction modes of HPPD enzymes from plant and rat with selective and non-selective herbicides which already available with their structures to identify the molecule groups which are essential to their activity and those that are likely to changes, mediated by molecular computations. In this theoretical investigation, methods of molecular docking, reaction mechanism (QM/MM) and AIM calculations were employed, aiming the search for new more active and selective herbicides. Modifications were performed for DAS 645 and DAS 869 inhibitors. DAS 645 presented a good selectivity for the inhibition of the plant enzyme, and the modifications to the analogs design done increased its activity. For this compound, π–π* stacking interactions seem to be important, and this fact was proven by using AIM calculations. The other prototype compound, DAS 869, a potent inhibitor for both enzymes, had its increased activity in the plant and rat enzyme after added groups capable of performing π–π* stacking interactions. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
