    Abstract Chagas disease (CD) is a tropical disease caused by the parasite Trypanosoma cruzi, transmitted by the barber insect. Currently, there are approximately 7 million infected people in the world, and it is estimated that 70 million people could contract this disease. The anacardic acid (AA) showed effectiveness in in silico and in vitro tests. The antichagasic potential of five sulfonamide molecules, derived from anacardic acid, was evaluated from a molecular approach based on the density functional theory (DFT), molecular dynamics (MD), and molecular docking (docking) calculations. Methyl 2-methoxy-6- (8- (methylsulfonamide) octyl) benzoate (SA1); 2-methoxy-6- (8- (phenylsulfonamide) octyl) benzoate (SA2); methyl 2-methoxy-6- (8- (2methylphenyl sulfonamide) octyl) benzoate (SA3); methyl 2-methoxy-6- (8-(methylphenylsulfonamide)octyl)benzoate (SA4); methyl2-(8-(2,5-dimethylphenylsulfonamide)octyl)-6-methoxybenzoate (SA5) were the investigated molecules. The DFT calculations were performed using the B3LYP/6-311+G (d, p) level of theory. The global and local reactivity data showed that SA1 shows the highest molecular reactivity, while SA2 is the most stable derivative. In addition, the structures of investigated molecules were confirmed by the linear correlations higher than 0.98 displayed between the experimental and calculated spectroscopic data (IR and NMR). Molecular docking of the molecules showed a greater prominence for the SA1, SA2, and SA4 molecules in the results of distances of ligand-cruzain. In molecular dynamics, SA2 obtained better stability due to greater interactions with important amino acids of cruzain.

    Abstract Chagas disease is a neglected tropical disease caused by the protozoan parasite Trypanosoma cruzi, with approximately 6–7 million people infected worldwide, becoming a public health problem in tropical countries, thus generating an increasing demand for the development of more effective drugs, due to the low efficiency of the existing drugs. Aiming at the development of a new antichagasic pharmacological tool, the density functional theory was used to calculate the reactivity descriptors of amentoflavone, a biflavonoid with proven anti-trypanosomal activity in vitro, as well as to perform a study of interactions with the enzyme cruzain, an enzyme key in the evolutionary process of T-cruzi. Structural properties (in solvents with different values of dielectric constant), the infrared spectrum, the frontier orbitals, Fukui analysis, thermodynamic properties were the parameters calculated from DFT method with the monomeric structure of the apigenin used for comparison. Furthermore, molecular docking studies were performed to assess the potential use of this biflavonoid as a pharmacological antichagasic tool. The frontier orbitals (HOMO-LUMO) study to find the band gap of compound has been extended to calculate electron affinity, ionization energy, electronegativity electrophilicity index, chemical potential, global chemical hardness and global chemical softness to study the chemical behaviour of compound. The optimized structure was subjected to molecular Docking to characterize the interaction between amentoflavone and cruzain enzyme, a classic pharmacological target for substances with anti-gas activity, where significant interactions were observed with amino acid residues from each one's catalytic sites enzyme. These results suggest that amentoflavone has the potential to interfere with the enzymatic activity of cruzain, thus being an indicative of being a promising antichagasic agent.

    Abstract The sanitary emergency generated by the pandemic COVID-19, instigates the search for scientific strategies to mitigate the damage caused by the disease to different sectors of society. The disease caused by the coronavirus, SARS-CoV-2, reached 216 countries/territories, where about 20 million people were reported with the infection. Of these, more than 740,000 died. In view of the situation, strategies involving the development of new antiviral molecules are extremely important. The present work evaluated, through molecular docking assays, the interactions of 4'-acetamidechalcones with enzymatic and structural targets of SARS-CoV-2 and with the host's ACE2, which is recognized by the virus, facilitating its entry into cells. Therefore, it was observed that, regarding the interactions of chalcones with Main protease (Mpro), the chalcone N-(4'[(2E)-3-(4-flurophenyl)-1-(phenyl)prop-2-en-1-one]) acetamide (PAAPF) has the potential for coupling in the same region as the natural inhibitor FJC through strong hydrogen bonding. The formation of two strong hydrogen bonds between N-(4[(2E)-3-(phenyl)-1-(phenyl)-prop-2-en-1-one]) acetamide (PAAB) and the NSP16-NSP10 heterodimer methyltransferase was also noted. N-(4[(2E)-3-(4-methoxyphenyl)-1-(phenyl)prop-2-en-1-one]) acetamide (PAAPM) and N-(4-[(2E)-3-(4-ethoxyphenyl)-1-(phenyl)prop-2-en-1-one]) acetamide (PAAPE) chalcones showed at least one strong intensity interaction of the SPIKE protein. N-(4[(2E)-3-(4-dimetilaminophenyl)-1-(phenyl)-prop-2-en-1-one]) acetamide (PAAPA) chalcone had a better affinity with ACE2, with strong hydrogen interactions. Together, our results suggest that 4'-acetamidechalcones inhibit the interaction of the virus with host cells through binding to ACE2 or SPIKE protein, probably generating a steric impediment. In addition, chalcones have an affinity for important enzymes in post-translational processes, interfering with viral replication.

    Abstract The shortage of reliable primary taxonomic data limits the description of biological taxa and the understanding of biodiversity patterns and processes, complicating biogeographical, ecological, and evolutionary studies. This deficit creates a significant taxonomic impediment to biodiversity research and conservation planning. The taxonomic impediment and the biodiversity crisis are widely recognized, highlighting the urgent need for reliable taxonomic data. Over the past decade, numerous countries worldwide have devoted considerable effort to Target 1 of the Global Strategy for Plant Conservation (GSPC), which called for the preparation of a working list of all known plant species by 2010 and an online world Flora by 2020. Brazil is a megadiverse country, home to more of the world's known plant species than any other country. Despite that, Flora Brasiliensis, concluded in 1906, was the last comprehensive treatment of the Brazilian flora. The lack of accurate estimates of the number of species of algae, fungi, and plants occurring in Brazil contributes to the prevailing taxonomic impediment and delays progress towards the GSPC targets. Over the past 12 years, a legion of taxonomists motivated to meet Target 1 of the GSPC, worked together to gather and integrate knowledge on the algal, plant, and fungal diversity of Brazil. Overall, a team of about 980 taxonomists joined efforts in a highly collaborative project that used cybertaxonomy to prepare an updated Flora of Brazil, showing the power of scientific collaboration to reach ambitious goals. This paper presents an overview of the Brazilian Flora 2020 and provides taxonomic and spatial updates on the algae, fungi, and plants found in one of the world's most biodiverse countries. We further identify collection gaps and summarize future goals that extend beyond 2020. Our results show that Brazil is home to 46,975 native species of algae, fungi, and plants, of which 19,669 are endemic to the country. The data compiled to date suggests that the Atlantic Rainforest might be the most diverse Brazilian domain for all plant groups except gymnosperms, which are most diverse in the Amazon. However, scientific knowledge of Brazilian diversity is still unequally distributed, with the Atlantic Rainforest and the Cerrado being the most intensively sampled and studied biomes in the country. In times of “scientific reductionism”, with botanical and mycological sciences suffering pervasive depreciation in recent decades, the first online Flora of Brazil 2020 significantly enhanced the quality and quantity of taxonomic data available for algae, fungi, and plants from Brazil. This project also made all the information freely available online, providing a firm foundation for future research and for the management, conservation, and sustainable use of the Brazilian funga and flora.
