Abstract
5-Pentylresorcinol is a type of the group of resorcinol compounds that is resorcinol in that has hydrogen atom at position 5 is replaced by a pentyl group. It has a role as a lichen metabolite. This compound showed excellent to good inhibitory activities against studied these enzymes with IC50 values of 65.96 µM for urease and 34.81 µM for tyrosinase. Standard compounds for enzymes had IC50 values of 1.94±0.24 µM against urease and 84.36±5.17 µM against tyrosinase. The IC50 of 5-pentylresorcinol against MCF7 cell line was 165.72 µg/mL; against Hs 578Bst cell line was 102.14 µg/mL; against Hs 319.T cell line was 12.34 µg/mL; and against UACC-3133 cell line was 73.07 µg/mL, respectively. The chemical activities of 5-pentylresorcinol against urease and tyrosinase were evaluated using the molecular modeling study. The anti-cancer activity of 5-pentylresorcinol was also investigated by treating the compound on the BRCT repeat region from the breast cancer-associated protein (BRCA1), and their interactions were assessed utilizing the molecular docking calculations. The results revealed the probable interactions and their characteristics at an atomic level. The docking scores of 5-pentylresorcinol against urease, tyrosinase, and BRCA1 are -3.073, -5.262, and -3.238 (kcal/mol), respectively.
