Abstract
Background: Carum carvi (caraway) of the Apiaceae family has been used in many cultures as a cooking spice and part of the traditional medicine. Previous reports primarily focus on the medicinal properties of caraway seed essential oil and the whole seeds extract. However, no effort has been made to study caraway proteins and their potential pharmacological properties, including nonspecific lipid transfer protein (nsLTP), necessitating further research. The current study aimed to characterize nonspecific lipid transfer protein 1 (nsLTP1) from caraway seed, determine its three-dimensional structure, and analyze protein-ligand complex interactions through docking studies. Also, evaluate nsLTP1 in vitro cytotoxic effect, antioxidant capacity, and thermal- and pH- stability.
