Phytochemicals from Capsicum anum L. plant extract are traditionally used to cure bronchitis. Bronchitis is caused by Haemophilus influenzae. Molecular docking method applied using “Biovia Discovery Studio”. “High positive values of -CDOCKER energy and -CDOCKER interaction energy” suggested that myrcetin and quercetin can effectively deactivate the Palmitoyl-CoA hydrolase enzyme thereby interrupting the life cycle of Haemophilus influenza.

The palmitoyl-CoA hydrolase activity, which in human blood platelets is mainly localized in the cytosol fraction [Berge, Vollset & Farstad (1980) Scand. J. Clin. Lab. Invest. 40, 271--279], was found to be extremely labile. Inclusion of glycerol or palmitoyl-CoA stabilized the activity during preparation. Gel-filtration studies revealed multiple forms of the enzyme with molecular weights corresponding to about 70 000, 40 000 and 24 000. The relative recovery of the mol.wt.-70 000 form was increased by the presence of 20% (v/v) glycerol or 10 microM-palmitoyl-CoA. The three enzyme forms are probably unrelated, since they were not interconvertible. The three different species of palmitoyl-CoA hydrolase were purified by DEAE-cellulose and hydroxyapatite chromatography, isoelectric focusing and high-pressure liquid chromatography (h.p.l.c.) to apparent homogeneity. The three enzymes had isoelectric points (pI) of 7.0, 6.1 and 4.9. The corresponding molecular weights were 27 000--33 000, 66 000--72 000 and 45 000--49 000, calculated from h.p.l.c. and Ultrogel AcA-44 chromatography. The apparently purified enzymes were unstable, as most of the activity was lost during purification. The enzyme with an apparent molecular weight of 45 000--49 000 was split into fractions with molecular weights of less than 10 000 by re-chromatography on h.p.l.c. concomitantly with a loss of activity. The stimulation of the activity by the presence of serum albumin seems to depend on the availability of palmitoyl-CoA, as has been reported for other palmitoyl-CoA hydrolases. [Berge & Farstad (1979) Eur. J. Biochem. 96, 393--401].
