Anti snake venom serum is the only rescue method in health centerswhen there is a fatal snake bite condition. And these anti venoms derived from animal tissues are not properly designed so they have a lot of side effects like anaphylaxis and even a high dose can be fatal. So instead of serum anti venom, various plant products can be used which have less side effects. These plant extracts must be tested in silico with their structure for effective proper binding with the target venom protein. These herbal antidotes must be designed in such a way that it can target the venom protein. To know the exact lead compound which can act upon that protein, Bioinformatics tools are used as a starting point for in silico lead compound development. Toxic protein are downloaded from PDB site and are docked with probable lead compound and based on the docking respective lead compounds are screened. This is an attempt to show the probable lead compounds extracted from plants which can act upon various venom proteins and can be a probable cure for wide ranges of snake bites.
