Exploring the antiviral activity of juglone by computational method

Abstract

Nature has been the best source of medicines for a long time. Many plant extracts have been used as drugs. Juglone occurs in all parts of the Juglandaceae family and is found extensively in the black walnut plants. It possesses antifungal, antimalarial, antibacterial and antiviral properties besides exhibiting cytotoxic effects. Juglone has gained interest by the researchers for its anticancer properties. This article elucidates the antiviral activity of the Juglone by the computational method.
