ABSTRACT
Diabetes is one of the major causes of death in the world, affecting
around 422 million people (or 8.5 percent of the world's population).
Diabetes mellitus, or diabetes, is a disease that causes excessive
blood sugar levels. Diabetes mellitus is a condition where a person
does not produce enough insulin or does not link directly to insulin,
and resulting in excessively high blood sugar (glucose) levels.
Diabetes is classified into several types: Prediabetes, Type 1 diabetes,
Type 2 diabetes and gestational diabetes. In diabetes research,
numerous bioinformatics technologies are used. The current research
was carried to study the effect of naturally occurring compounds
against Aquaporin 2 as the target protein molecule with the help of
molecular docking for diabetes diagnosis. AQP2 is found in the
apical cell of the main ducts of the kidney and in the vesicles
(intracellular) in the cells. Docking experiment were performed out
by using aquaporin 2 (4nef). The technique of molecular docking was
utilized to investigate the potential of naturally occurring compounds
such as aglycone, gedunin, and harman with the target protein
Aquaporin 2 (4nef). In diabetes, gedunin may function as a
therapeutic drug against the disease-causing protein Aquaporin 2
(4nef). Further research and then certain clinical and pre-clinical
studies may be allowed to discover drugs that can be used to treat
diabetes.

INTRODUCTION
Since 1965, the World Health Organization has
updated and published recommendations on how to
describe diabetes mellitus (also known as "diabetes")
on a regular basis [1].
Diabetes is one of the major causes of death in the
world, affecting around 422 million people (or 8.5
percent of the world's population). Despite many
significant attempts to improve treatment options, the
prevalence is expected to continue to rise. This article
discusses diabetes mellitus, its symptoms, types,
epidemiology, therapy and the in silico study for the
treatment of diabetes disease.
Diabetes mellitus, or diabetes, is a disease that causes
excessive blood sugar levels. Diabetes mellitus is a
condition where a person does not produce enough
insulin or does not link directly to insulin, and
resulting in excessively high blood sugar (glucose)
levels [2]. Insulin transports sugar from the
bloodstream into cells, where it is stored or utilized
for energy. If diabetes is not well controlled can lead
to serious impacts, including damage to a variety of
organs and tissues in your body, including your eyes,
nerves, heart, and kidney [3]-[4].

Symptoms of Diabetes
Diabetes symptoms are caused by rising blood sugar.
The normal symptoms of diabetes include:
 Increased thirst
 Frequent urination
 Weak feeling
 Blurry vision
 Weight Loss
 Increased hunger
 Extreme fatigue
 Sores that don’t heal
Others Symptoms
In Men: low sex drive, poor or decreased muscles
strength and Erectile Dysfunction (ED).
In Women: frequent yeast infection, dry skin,
itchiness, urinary tract infection (UTI).
Classification Of Diabetes
Diabetes is classified into several types:
 Prediabetes arises when the blood sugar is greater
than normal, still not more enough for type 2
diabetes diagnosis.
 Type 1 diabetes disease is caused by an
autoimmune reaction. The immune system targets
and damages insulin-producing cells in the
pancreas. This kind of diabetes affects around
10% of diabetic patient.
 Type 2 diabetes develops when the bodybecomes
resistant to insulin and produces high sugar levels
in your blood.
 Gestational diabetes is defined as elevated blood
sugar levels throughout pregnancy. This type of
diabetes causes insulin blocking hormones
released by placenta.
Diabetes is a endocrinological disease condition that
affects millions of individuals and is able to create
numerous health concerns. In diabetes research,
numerous bioinformatics technologies are used. To
acquire an overall view of bioinformatics and
diabetes, a study investigated at the types of tools
often used by researchers, both by tool category (e.g.,
sequence alignment, microarray analysis) and
individual tools cited (e.g., GCG Pileup, ClustalW,
etc.) [5].
The current research was carried to study the effect of
naturally occurring compounds against Aquaporin 2
as the target protein molecule with the help of
molecular docking for diabetes diagnosis.
The Role of Aquaporin and Disease
Aquaporin 2 Gene
AQP2 is found in the apical cell of the main ducts of
the kidney and in the vesicles (intracellular) in the
cells. Human aquaporin 2 (AQP2) is a water channel
found in the collecting duct of the kidney, where it
contributes in urine concentration. AQP2 transport
between intracellular storage vesicles and the apical
membrane regulates water absorption. The pituitary
hormone arginine vasopressin regulates this
mechanism, and improper transport leads to
nephrogenic diabetes insipid us (NDI)[6].
The AQP2 gene codes for aquaporin 2, a protein that
is produced in the body. This protein creates a
pathway for water molecules to pass through cell
membranes. It is located in collecting ducts, which
are a network of small tubes that easily absorb water
from the kidneys and return it to the bloodstream.
The aquaporin 2 water channel is necessary for
keeping the body's water balance in control. A
hormone called vasopressin, also known as
antidiuretic hormone, regulates the location of these
channels. The body creates more ADH when a
person's fluid intake is low or when a lot of fluid is
lost (for example, through sweating). Aquaporin 2
water channels are inserted into the membrane of
collecting duct cells as a result of chemical processes
triggered by this hormone. Water can be reabsorbed
into the bloodstream through these pathways,
resulting in more concentrated urine. ADH is
produced less when fluid intake is adequate.
Aquaporin 2 water channels are deleted from the
membrane of collecting duct cells when ADH signals
are not present. Water is reabsorbed into the
bloodstream less often during these times, resulting in
more dilute urine [7].
In humans and animals, the normal vasopressin-
regulated water channel of the renal collecting duct,
aquaporin-2 (AQP2), is dysregulated in a variety of
water balance disorders, including polyuria (e.g.
urinary tract blockage, hypokalemia, inflammation,
and lithium toxicity) and dilutional
hyponatremia. Normal vasopressin regulation of
AQP2 comprises two different regulatory
mechanisms: 1) short-term management of AQP2
transport into and out of the outer membrane, and 2)
long-term control of cell concentration of the AQP2
protein. The majority of water balance problems are
caused by a dysfunction of the mechanisms that
control the overall amount of AQP2 in collecting duct
cells. In overall, the level of AQP2 in a collecting
duct cells is regulated by a balance of production via
AQP2 mRNA translation and removal via breakdown
and/or release into the urine in exosomes. The rise in
AQP2 abundance in response to vasopressin is
primarily due to enhanced translation after increases
in AQP2 mRNA. Vasopressin-mediated control
AQP2 gene transcription is inadequately known, yet
in proteomic studies multiple transcription-related

binding elements have been identified in the 5'
flanking AQP2 region of the gene. A study review
research in the field and describe aspects of
vasopressin signaling in the collecting duct that may
influence AQP2 regulation in health and in the
context of polyuric disease cases[8].

Some Natural Compounds For Diabetes Diagnosis
Since ancient times, natural compounds have been
utilized for all types of treatments in India and around
the world. According to a WHO report, more than
60% of the worldwide people uses plants and their by
products as medicine. There are many natural
compounds which is known for more effective
treatment of diabetes disease. In this study we have
been taken some natural occurring compounds or
products which is helpful in diabetes diagnosis.
Gedunin: Gedunin is a pentacyclic triterpenoid
natural substance found mostly in Azadirachta
indica&Cedrela odorata. It is isolated from the
Indian neem tree. It functions as an antineoplastic,
antimalarial, Hsp90 inhibitor, and a plant metabolite.
It is a limonoid, acetate ester, epoxy, enone, furans,
triterpenoid, heteropentacyclic chemical molecule and
lactone[9].
In various Meliaceae family genera, Gedunin is a
significant limonoid, especiallyin seeds. Gedunin has
been linked to a variety of biological activities,
including antibacterial, insecticidal, antimalarial,
antiallergic, anti-inflammatory, anticancer, and
neuroprotective properties. The identification of
gedunin as a heat shock protein (Hsp) inhibitor was a
turning point in the drug's development as a
biological therapeutic agent. This study is a critical
evaluation of literature based on the numerous
biological activities for gedunin that have been
described so far, their therapeutic effects on certain
human conditions and recommendations for future
research for this organic compound [10].
Dammarane: Dammarane is a tetracyclic triterpene
present in sapogenins (triterpenoid saponins) such as
those found in ginseng (ginsenosides: panaxatriol and
protopanaxadiol). Dammar resin, a natural resin from
tropical plants in the Dipterocarp family, was used to
isolate andname compounds in the series [11]-[12].
Dammarane triterpenoids are very important natural
metabolites with exceptional biologic activity, the
primary secondarymetabolites of Panax ginseng. The
plants of the Panax or other genus and modifying
some natural compounds can be isolated. This review
consists of a collection of a number (2005-2014) of
patents which describe dammarane triterpenoids for
therapeutic and preventive usage in several prevalent
ailments [13].
Aglycone: It's an organic component (such as phenol
or alcohol) mixed with the sugar portion of a
glycoside. An aglycone (aglycone or Genin )[14] is a
residual compound that has been replaced by a
hydrogen atom with a glycosyl [15]. An example is a
steroid molecule, which may be a cardiac aglycone. A
cardiac glycoside aglycon is an example of a steroid
molecule. H-NMR and Heteronuclear multiple bond
correlation (HMBC) investigations will be used to
extract aglycone from desert plant species. The
HMBC experiment is frequently paired with other
techniques, including as mass spectroscopy, to better
understand the structure and function of aglycone
[16]. A study of molecular markers in human arteria
epithelial tissue cells found that aglycone inhibited
cell migration but not white blood corpuscle

adhesion, which is the first stage in the formation of
arterial sclerosis plaques [17].
Harman: Harmane (harman) is a heterocyclic amine
present in a range of foods such as coffee [18], sauces
[19], and cooked meat [20] It can also be found in
tobacco smoke[21]. Harmane has the chemical
formula C12H10N2 and is a methylated derivative of
-carboline.
Harman, commonly known as aribin or locuturin, is
an organic chemical that belongs to the harmala
alkaloids class. Harmala alkaloids are substances that
have a structure that is based on harmaline, harmine,
harmalol, harman, or a product of those parents.
These parents are beta-carbolines, which are formed
by fusing a pyrimidine to the pyrrole molecule of an
indole to generate pyrido[3,4-b]indole. Harman is a
powerful basic compound (based on its pKa).
Methodology
Material & Methods
Softwares and Tools:
Uniprot, PubChem, SMILES Translator, PyRx,,
SwissADME. AutoDock Vina 1.1.2, MGL tools,
NCBI, Protein Data Bank (PDB) and PyMOL.
Experiment process following steps as: -
A. Protein Identification
After Studing various literatures and texts, the
disease-causing protein {Aquaporin 2 (4nef)} was
retrieved and protein structure was downloaded from
RCSB Protein Data Bank (PDB) and downloaded
protein was in .pdb format [22].
B. Ligand Identification
According to the literature, all-natural compounds
were chosen (named Aglycone, Gedunin,
Dammarane, Harman). These natural compounds
were obtained in .sdf format from PubChem [23].
After that, all ligands were converted from .sdf to
.pdb format and were downloaded using the online
SMILES translator[24].
C. Virtual Screening of protein and ligand
molecule via PyRx tool
PyRx software was used to perform virtual screening
of the ligands. Using virtual screening, the PyRx
software determined the affinity and binding energy
of each ligand. On PyRx window protein molecules
was loaded in pdb format. The protein molecule was
transformed from pdb to pdbqt format. Then, ligand
molecules in sdf format were imported. All ligand
energies were minimized, and all ligand molecules
were converted to pdbqt format. The results were
examined based on their binding affinity.
D. Analysis of Drug likeness property
Accordingly, natural substances were chosen for
molecular docking study based on their drug-like
properties. Swiss ADME [25], an internet web server,
was used to analyze the Lipinski’s rule of five.
The ligands' SMILE notation from PubChem were
copied and were pasted to Swiss ADME, The ligand
molecules were screened using Lipinski's rule of five.
 H-Bond (Hydrogen Bond) acceptor must be <10.
 H-Bond (Hydrogen Bond) donor must be <5.
 Molecular weight must not >500 Da.
 LogP (MLOGP) partition of coefficient should
not be more than 5.
 Only one rule can be violated.
E. Docking via Auto Dock Vina
The target protein in .pdb format was loaded on the
Auto Dock Vina graphical window. The protein was
prepared by removing water molecules and
adding them with hydrogen polar atoms, then adding
kollman charges to the protein molecules and were
saved in the “.pdbqt” format. The ligand molecule
was imported in pdb format. The ligands were
converted from pdb to the pdbqt format. Protein and
ligand molecules were imported onto a graphical
interface of auto dock tool, the grid box boundaries
were adjusted, and was saved in the grid
configurations in grid.txt format.
F. Visualization of structure by PyMOL
PyMol software was used to visualize the protein's
structure. The protein in .pdbqt format was manually
saved with the name of the output pdbqt file in a
selected folder after Auto dock vina were loaded on
the PyMol tool's graphical screen. Following that, the
protein-ligand interaction was observed and
evaluated.
Result
The Aquaporin 2 (PDB ID: 4nef) was downloaded in
pdb format from Protein Data Bank. The resolution of
the protein was 2.75 Å. With X-ray diffraction as the
method, Aquaporin 2 (4nef) has R-Value Free: 0.225,
R-Value Work: 0.202, R-Value Observed: 0.203.
Aglycone, Gedunin, Dammarane, Harman were
downloaded in 3D conformer in .sdf format. Virtual
screening of the protein and ligand molecules was
done via PyRx tool. The binding affinity values of all
4 ligands were: Aglycone was -8.5, Gedunin was -9.3,
Darmmane was-6.9 and Harman was -7.1 (Table 1).
Accordindly after the PyRx result, less minimum
binding affinity ligand were screened and taken for
next process. Gedunin ligand shows the minimum
binding affinity (-9.3) and can be chosen for the
further analysis whereas the Dammarane compound
have maximum binding affinity (-6.9) in all selected
compounds. The ligands which were selected after the

Conclusion
Diabetes mellitus, or diabetes, is a disease that causes
excessive blood sugar levels. Docking
experiment were performed out byusing aquaporin 2.
The technique of molecular docking was used to
investigate the potential of naturally occurring
compounds such as aglycone, gedunin, and harman
with the target protein Aquaporin 2. Docking
observations were evaluated to determine the best
ligands based on their drug-likeness property.
Gedunin was revealed to be the best ligand in this
research study, with the lowest binding affinityvalue,
and this compound also fulfilled Lipinski's rule of
five. The results of this study were effective in
assessing the structural properties needed to enhance
the inhibition activity. In diabetes, gedunin may
function as a therapeutic drug against the disease-
causing protein Aquaporin 2. Further research, certain
clinical and pre-clinical studies may be allowed to
discover drugs that may be used to treat diabetes.

Ltd., Noida, Uttar Pradesh, India #Corresponding Author: abhimanyujha630@gmail.com ABSTRACT Diabetes is one of the major causes of death in the world, affecting around 422 million people (or 8.5 percent of the world's population). Diabetes mellitus, or diabetes, is a disease that causes excessive blood sugar levels. Diabetes mellitus is a condition where a person does not produce enough insulin or does not link directly to insulin, and resulting in excessively high blood sugar (glucose) levels. Diabetes is classified into several types: Prediabetes, Type 1 diabetes, Type 2 diabetes and gestational diabetes. In diabetes research, numerous bioinformatics technologies are used. The current research was carried to study the effect of naturally occurring compounds against Aquaporin 2 as the target protein molecule with the help of molecular docking for diabetes diagnosis. AQP2 is found in the apical cell of the main ducts of the kidney and in the vesicles (intracellular) in the cells. Docking experiment were performed out by using aquaporin 2 (4nef). The technique of molecular docking was utilized to investigate the potential of naturally occurring compounds such as aglycone, gedunin, and harman with the target protein Aquaporin 2 (4nef). In diabetes, gedunin may function as a therapeutic drug against the disease-causing protein Aquaporin 2 (4nef). Further research and then certain clinical and pre-clinical studies may be allowed to discover drugs that can be used to treat diabetes.

Diabetes is one of the major causes of death in the world, affecting around 422 million people (or 8.5 percent of the world's population). Despite many significant attempts to improve treatment options, the prevalence is expected to continue to rise. This article discusses diabetes mellitus, its symptoms, types, epidemiology, therapy and the in silico study for the treatment of diabetes disease. Diabetes mellitus, or diabetes, is a disease that causes excessive blood sugar levels. Diabetes mellitus is a condition where a person does not produce enough insulin or does not link directly to insulin, and resulting in excessively high blood sugar (glucose) levels [2]. Insulin transports sugar from the bloodstream into cells, where it is stored or utilized for energy. If diabetes is not well controlled can lead to serious impacts, including damage to a variety of organs and tissues in your body, including your eyes, nerves, heart, and kidney [3]-[4]. IJTSRD43788

International Journal of Trend in Scientific Research and Development @ www.ijtsrd.com eISSN: 2456-6470 @ IJTSRD | Unique Paper ID – IJTSRD43788 | Volume – 5 | Issue – 5 | Jul-Aug 2021 Page 157 Symptoms of Diabetes Diabetes symptoms are caused by rising blood sugar. The normal symptoms of diabetes include:  Increased thirst  Frequent urination  Weak feeling  Blurry vision  Weight Loss  Increased hunger  Extreme fatigue  Sores that don’t heal Others Symptoms In Men: low sex drive, poor or decreased muscles strength and Erectile Dysfunction (ED). In Women: frequent yeast infection, dry skin, itchiness, urinary tract infection (UTI). Classification Of Diabetes Diabetes is classified into several types:  Prediabetes arises when the blood sugar is greater than normal, still not more enough for type 2 diabetes diagnosis.  Type 1 diabetes disease is caused by an autoimmune reaction. The immune system targets and damages insulin-producing cells in the pancreas. This kind of diabetes affects around 10% of diabetic patient.  Type 2 diabetes develops when the bodybecomes resistant to insulin and produces high sugar levels in your blood.  Gestational diabetes is defined as elevated blood sugar levels throughout pregnancy. This type of diabetes causes insulin blocking hormones released by placenta. Diabetes is a endocrinological disease condition that affects millions of individuals and is able to create numerous health concerns. In diabetes research, numerous bioinformatics technologies are used. To acquire an overall view of bioinformatics and diabetes, a study investigated at the types of tools often used by researchers, both by tool category (e.g., sequence alignment, microarray analysis) and individual tools cited (e.g., GCG Pileup, ClustalW, etc.) [5]. The current research was carried to study the effect of naturally occurring compounds against Aquaporin 2 as the target protein molecule with the help of molecular docking for diabetes diagnosis. The Role of Aquaporin and Disease Aquaporin 2 Gene AQP2 is found in the apical cell of the main ducts of the kidney and in the vesicles (intracellular) in the cells. Human aquaporin 2 (AQP2) is a water channel found in the collecting duct of the kidney, where it contributes in urine concentration. AQP2 transport between intracellular storage vesicles and the apical membrane regulates water absorption. The pituitary hormone arginine vasopressin regulates this mechanism, and improper transport leads to nephrogenic diabetes insipid us (NDI)[6]. The AQP2 gene codes for aquaporin 2, a protein that is produced in the body. This protein creates a pathway for water molecules to pass through cell membranes. It is located in collecting ducts, which are a network of small tubes that easily absorb water from the kidneys and return it to the bloodstream. The aquaporin 2 water channel is necessary for keeping the body's water balance in control. A hormone called vasopressin, also known as antidiuretic hormone, regulates the location of these channels. The body creates more ADH when a person's fluid intake is low or when a lot of fluid is lost (for example, through sweating). Aquaporin 2 water channels are inserted into the membrane of collecting duct cells as a result of chemical processes triggered by this hormone. Water can be reabsorbed into the bloodstream through these pathways, resulting in more concentrated urine. ADH is produced less when fluid intake is adequate. Aquaporin 2 water channels are deleted from the membrane of collecting duct cells when ADH signals are not present. Water is reabsorbed into the bloodstream less often during these times, resulting in more dilute urine [7]. In humans and animals, the normal vasopressin- regulated water channel of the renal collecting duct, aquaporin-2 (AQP2), is dysregulated in a variety of water balance disorders, including polyuria (e.g. urinary tract blockage, hypokalemia, inflammation, and lithium toxicity) and dilutional hyponatremia. Normal vasopressin regulation of AQP2 comprises two different regulatory mechanisms: 1) short-term management of AQP2 transport into and out of the outer membrane, and 2) long-term control of cell concentration of the AQP2 protein. The majority of water balance problems are caused by a dysfunction of the mechanisms that control the overall amount of AQP2 in collecting duct cells. In overall, the level of AQP2 in a collecting duct cells is regulated by a balance of production via AQP2 mRNA translation and removal via breakdown and/or release into the urine in exosomes. The rise in AQP2 abundance in response to vasopressin is primarily due to enhanced translation after increases in AQP2 mRNA. Vasopressin-mediated control AQP2 gene transcription is inadequately known, yet in proteomic studies multiple transcription-related

Some Natural Compounds For Diabetes Diagnosis Since ancient times, natural compounds have been utilized for all types of treatments in India and around the world. According to a WHO report, more than 60% of the worldwide people uses plants and their by products as medicine. There are many natural compounds which is known for more effective treatment of diabetes disease. In this study we have been taken some natural occurring compounds or products which is helpful in diabetes diagnosis. Gedunin: Gedunin is a pentacyclic triterpenoid natural substance found mostly in Azadirachta indica&Cedrela odorata. It is isolated from the Indian neem tree. It functions as an antineoplastic, antimalarial, Hsp90 inhibitor, and a plant metabolite. It is a limonoid, acetate ester, epoxy, enone, furans, triterpenoid, heteropentacyclic chemical molecule and lactone[9]. In various Meliaceae family genera, Gedunin is a significant limonoid, especiallyin seeds. Gedunin has been linked to a variety of biological activities, including antibacterial, insecticidal, antimalarial, antiallergic, anti-inflammatory, anticancer, and neuroprotective properties. The identification of gedunin as a heat shock protein (Hsp) inhibitor was a turning point in the drug's development as a biological therapeutic agent. This study is a critical evaluation of literature based on the numerous biological activities for gedunin that have been described so far, their therapeutic effects on certain human conditions and recommendations for future research for this organic compound [10]. Dammarane: Dammarane is a tetracyclic triterpene present in sapogenins (triterpenoid saponins) such as those found in ginseng (ginsenosides: panaxatriol and protopanaxadiol). Dammar resin, a natural resin from tropical plants in the Dipterocarp family, was used to isolate andname compounds in the series [11]-[12]. Dammarane triterpenoids are very important natural metabolites with exceptional biologic activity, the primary secondarymetabolites of Panax ginseng. The plants of the Panax or other genus and modifying some natural compounds can be isolated. This review consists of a collection of a number (2005-2014) of patents which describe dammarane triterpenoids for therapeutic and preventive usage in several prevalent ailments [13]. Aglycone: It's an organic component (such as phenol or alcohol) mixed with the sugar portion of a glycoside. An aglycone (aglycone or Genin )[14] is a residual compound that has been replaced by a hydrogen atom with a glycosyl [15]. An example is a steroid molecule, which may be a cardiac aglycone. A cardiac glycoside aglycon is an example of a steroid molecule. H-NMR and Heteronuclear multiple bond correlation (HMBC) investigations will be used to extract aglycone from desert plant species. The HMBC experiment is frequently paired with other techniques, including as mass spectroscopy, to better understand the structure and function of aglycone [16]. A study of molecular markers in human arteria epithelial tissue cells found that aglycone inhibited cell migration but not white blood corpuscle

Harman: Harmane (harman) is a heterocyclic amine present in a range of foods such as coffee [18], sauces [19], and cooked meat [20] It can also be found in tobacco smoke[21]. Harmane has the chemical formula C12H10N2 and is a methylated derivative of -carboline. Harman, commonly known as aribin or locuturin, is an organic chemical that belongs to the harmala alkaloids class. Harmala alkaloids are substances that have a structure that is based on harmaline, harmine, harmalol, harman, or a product of those parents. These parents are beta-carbolines, which are formed by fusing a pyrimidine to the pyrrole molecule of an indole to generate pyrido[3,4-b]indole. Harman is a powerful basic compound (based on its pKa). Methodology Material & Methods Softwares and Tools: Uniprot, PubChem, SMILES Translator, PyRx,, SwissADME. AutoDock Vina 1.1.2, MGL tools, NCBI, Protein Data Bank (PDB) and PyMOL. Experiment process following steps as: - A. Protein Identification After Studing various literatures and texts, the disease-causing protein {Aquaporin 2 (4nef)} was retrieved and protein structure was downloaded from RCSB Protein Data Bank (PDB) and downloaded protein was in .pdb format [22]. B. Ligand Identification According to the literature, all-natural compounds were chosen (named Aglycone, Gedunin, Dammarane, Harman). These natural compounds were obtained in .sdf format from PubChem [23]. After that, all ligands were converted from .sdf to .pdb format and were downloaded using the online SMILES translator[24]. C. Virtual Screening of protein and ligand molecule via PyRx tool PyRx software was used to perform virtual screening of the ligands. Using virtual screening, the PyRx software determined the affinity and binding energy of each ligand. On PyRx window protein molecules was loaded in pdb format. The protein molecule was transformed from pdb to pdbqt format. Then, ligand molecules in sdf format were imported. All ligand energies were minimized, and all ligand molecules were converted to pdbqt format. The results were examined based on their binding affinity. D. Analysis of Drug likeness property Accordingly, natural substances were chosen for molecular docking study based on their drug-like properties. Swiss ADME [25], an internet web server, was used to analyze the Lipinski’s rule of five. The ligands' SMILE notation from PubChem were copied and were pasted to Swiss ADME, The ligand molecules were screened using Lipinski's rule of five.  H-Bond (Hydrogen Bond) acceptor must be <10.  H-Bond (Hydrogen Bond) donor must be <5.  Molecular weight must not >500 Da.  LogP (MLOGP) partition of coefficient should not be more than 5.  Only one rule can be violated. E. Docking via Auto Dock Vina The target protein in .pdb format was loaded on the Auto Dock Vina graphical window. The protein was prepared by removing water molecules and adding them with hydrogen polar atoms, then adding kollman charges to the protein molecules and were saved in the “.pdbqt” format. The ligand molecule was imported in pdb format. The ligands were converted from pdb to the pdbqt format. Protein and ligand molecules were imported onto a graphical interface of auto dock tool, the grid box boundaries were adjusted, and was saved in the grid configurations in grid.txt format. F. Visualization of structure by PyMOL PyMol software was used to visualize the protein's structure. The protein in .pdbqt format was manually saved with the name of the output pdbqt file in a selected folder after Auto dock vina were loaded on the PyMol tool's graphical screen. Following that, the protein-ligand interaction was observed and evaluated. Result The Aquaporin 2 (PDB ID: 4nef) was downloaded in pdb format from Protein Data Bank.

Docking experiment were performed out byusing aquaporin 2. The technique of molecular docking was used to investigate the potential of naturally occurring compounds such as aglycone, gedunin, and harman with the target protein Aquaporin 2. Docking observations were evaluated to determine the best ligands based on their drug-likeness property. Gedunin was revealed to be the best ligand in this research study, with the lowest binding affinityvalue, and this compound also fulfilled Lipinski's rule of five. The results of this study were effective in assessing the structural properties needed to enhance the inhibition activity. In diabetes, gedunin may function as a therapeutic drug against the disease- causing protein Aquaporin 2. Further research, certain clinical and pre-clinical studies may be allowed to discover drugs that may be used to treat diabetes.
