In silico molecular docking analysis of the N. benthamiana membrane receptors and melatonin and 5-methoxyindole. Interaction of N. benthamiana membrane receptors and CAND2 from Arabidopsis with MT and 5-methoxytryptamin and 5-methoxyindole (A). Molecular docking analysis was conducted using SYBYL software to evaluate the binding model for the active binding pocket of the receptor proteins with MT, 5-methoxytryptamin, and 5-methoxyindole. The receptor proteins are displayed as colored ribbons, with the surface formed by the protein shown in green, and the amino acids capable of binding in blue, white, and red. MT, 5-methoxytryptamin, and 5-methoxyindole are represented as white, dark blue, and wine-red sticks. H-bonding interactions are indicated with dashed yellow lines (B).
