Predicted affinity and kinetic analysis of myricetin, quercetin, kaempferol and acarbose binding to α-glucosidase.

Inhibitors Affinitya (kcal mol−1) K i b (μmol L−1) K is c (μmol L−1) Inhibitory type
Myricetin −9.2 15.56 31.64 Mixed-type
Quercetin −9.0 16.83 37.13 Mixed-type
Kaempferol −8.8 18.75 33.67 Mixed-type
Acarbose −8.7 109.95 Competitive
a

Affinity is predicted by molecular docking in silico.

b

K i represents the dissociation constant for inhibitors binding to free enzyme.

c

K is represents the dissociation constant for inhibitors binding to enzyme–substrate complex.
