  Objective: Malaria is a parasitic infection that causes worldwide health problems. The absence of an effective vaccine and Plasmodium strains that are resistant to antimalarial drugs emphasize the importance of developing new chemotherapeutic agents. The use of computers for in-silico screening, or virtual screening, is currently being developed as a method for discovering antimalarial drugs. One of the enzymes that can support the development of the malaria parasite is the Plasmodium falciparum enoyl-acyl carrier protein reductase (PfENR). Inhibition of these enzymes leads to Type II lipid biosynthesis inhibition on the parasite.Methods: This research investigates the use of virtual screening to find PfENR inhibitor candidates. A molecular docking method using GOLD software and the medicinal plants in Indonesia database will be used. This target has been optimized by the removal of residues and the addition of charge. Ligand is expected to be an inhibitor of PfENR.Results: In-silico screening, or virtual screening, found that the top five compounds with the highest GOLD score at trial are kaempferol 3-rhamnosyl- (1-3)-rhamnosyl-(1-6)-glucoside; cyanidin 3,5-di-(6-malonylglucoside); 8-hydroxyapigenin 8-(2’’, 4’’-disulfato glucuronide); epigallocatechin 3,5,-di- O-gallat; quercetin 3,4’-dimethyl ether 7-alpha-L-arabinofuranosyl-(1-6)-glucoside. They had GOLD scores of 94.73, 95.90, 86.46, 85.39, and 84.40, respectively.Conclusions: There are two candidate inhibitor compounds from tea (Camellia sinensis), which have potential for development as an antimalarial drug, which are kaempferol 3-rhamnosyl-(1-3)-rhamnosyl-(1-6)-glucoside and epigallocatechin 3,5,-di-O-gallate, with a GOLD score of 94.73 and 85.39, respectively.

Malaria is one of problematic infectious diseases worldwide. The absence of an effective vaccine and the spread of drug resistant strains of Plasmodium clearly indicate the necessity for the deveploment of new chemotherapeutic agents. Recent method being developed is searching a new drug of antimalarial using in silico screening, or also known as virtual screening. One of enzyme target that important for growth of the malaria parasite is Plasmodium falciparum Enoyl Acyl Carrier Protein Reductase (PfENR). Inhibition of this enzyme cause the fatty acid biosynthesis type II will be terminated. In this research, in silico screening was performed using AUTODOCK VINA software to find inhibitor candidates of PfENR by using ligands from the database of Medicinal Plants in Indonesia. On the AUTODOCK VINA software moleculer docking experiments were performed between ligands and macromolecule target PfENR. This target that has been optimized with residue removal and charges addition. Ligand is expected to be the PfENR inhibitors.
