Potential therapeutic targets of ginsenoside Rg1 identified from INVDOCK search of human and mammalian proteins

PDB ID	Target name	Experimental findings	Therapeutic implications
1rpa	DNA polymerase β	Rg1 stimulates DNA synthesis. Rg1 activates DNA polymerase delta (Cho et al., 1995; Lee and Lee, 1996).	Cancer (Shin et al., 2000)
1rmh	Cyclophilin A		Immune response (Kenarova et al., 1990)
3nos	Endothelial nitric-oxide synthase (NOS)	Rg1 inhibits NOS dose dependently (Li et al., 1997).	Maintaining optimal oxidative status (Kitts and Hu, 2000)
