Theoretical and Molecular Investigation of Bioactive Compounds as Potential Inhibitors of Plasmodium falciparum
Computational results predict that Compound 2 (Celastrol) exhibits stronger interactions with the target protein compared to the other two compounds. Its higher reactivity is further supported by a narrower HOMO-LUMO gap and molecular electrostatic potential (MEP) maps.
