Moracin G
Moracin G is a plant-derived kinase modulator and receptor ligand that forms stable bindings with multiple key proteins (AKT1, COX2 and Estrogen receptor 1) and competitively inhibits the activity of specific kinases. By binding to MELK to disrupt cell cycle regulation, Moracin G impairs the survival and proliferation of cancer cells, induces cancer cell apoptosis, and thereby exerts anti-tumor potential. Moracin G can be used in research related to periodontitis and breast cancer.

Moracin G meets the pharmacokinetic criteria for active ingredients, with an oral bioavailability of 75.78% and a drug-likeness score of 0.42[1].
Moracin G is a key active component in mulberry leaves that alleviates periodontitis, and it interacts with 37 different human targets associated with periodontitis. The top 10 key targets are IL-6, ALB, TNF, VEGFA, AKT1, TP53, PTGS2, EGF, MMP9, and IL-10, among which the binding affinity with AKT1 is -10.7 kcal/mol[1].
Moracin G exhibits favorable in silico ADMET properties, including high gastrointestinal absorption, low blood-brain barrier permeability, and no predicted toxicity, rendering it a viable candidate for further development[2].
Moracin G is predicted to have a high probability of acting as a kinase inhibitor, antineoplastic agent, apoptosis agonist, and antineoplastic agent against breast cancer[2].
