It is known that tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum) contains bioactive compounds to combat type-2 diabetes. Therefore, it is of interest to document data from the molecular docking analysis of compounds from Lycopersicon esculentum with the insulin receptors to combat type-2 diabetes. We report the binding features of cinnamicacid, chlorogenicacid, gallicacid & glucoside with insulin receptors for further consideration.
