Abstract

Cleome gynandra is a widespread medicinal plant belonging to the family Capparaceae. In Ayurvedic medicine C. gynandra is a main component in Narayana Churna. It has numerous properties like Anthelmintic, in ear diseases, pruritis and several other diseases like gastro intestinal disorders and gastrointestinal infections etc. This is an effort to gather and document evidence on different features of C. gynnadra and highlight the need for survey and development. In this current study, nine proteins of C. gynandra were identify by using of bioinformatics tools. The bioinformatic study of the characterization of proteins of C.gynandra were using Expasy Protparam server, 3D structure was done using SWISS MODEL. Plants of different family show uniqueness 98% and above were particular and its sequences retrieved, aligned using Clustal Omega. Secondary Structure prediction exhibited that α – helix, random coil, β – turn and long strand leads. Phylogenetic analysis of Glyceraldehyde 3 PO4 of C. gynandra exposes that the Capparaceae families are closely related. Insilco sequence analysis of C. gynandra showed that these proteins taken from different organisms linked organized evolutionarily as they possess conserved regions in their protein sequences.These results will be helpful to further study on C. gynandra protein functions at molecular or structural levels and also valuable in homology modelling and insilico approach.
