Investigations on its activities over the past 30 years, demonstrated a potential to prevent several diseases, among them cardiovascular diseases, inflammatory disorders, viral infections, diabetes and neurological disorders, in addition to its known antioxidant. The family of cytochrome P450 (CYP) is composed of monooxygenases, which play a crucial role in the metabolism of endogenous and exogenous substances, and participates in the metabolism of flavonoids. In this paper we describe the application of a methodology for exploring combined in silico prediction of sites of metabolism of quercetin, rutin, naringin and naringenin, found in abundance in nature. A methodology used was ligand based drug design (LBDD) to predict the sites of metabolism (SOM) and the program MetaPrint2D most likely estimate of the metabolites, combined with the method structure based drug design (SBDD) by using molecular docking and energy minimization, to predict the interaction of quercetin, rutin, naringin and naringenin with the isoforms CYP2C9 and CYP1A2. Metabolites were found several Phase I with catalytically active distance (<5 Å) and interaction sites described in the literature, with hydroxylation reactions of aliphatic, aromatic hydroxylation, dealkylation and O-dealkylation. The proposed in silico metabolic hydroxylation at the position corresponding to the C3' were consistent with studies in vitro and in vivo experiments described in the literature for naringin and naringenin. Amino acids of the active site of CYP isoforms have been identified as important in the positioning of the flavonoids quercetin, rutin, naringin and naringenin toward the heme, confirming the involvement of these isoforms in the metabolism of flavonoids. / Os flavonóides representam uma importante classe de produtos naturais candidatos à fármacos, sendo polifenóis de baixo peso molecular, amplamente distribuídos no reino vegetal. Investigações sobre suas atividades, nos últimos 30 anos, demonstraram uma prevenção potencial de diversas patologias, dentre elas doenças cardiovasculares, desordens inflamatórias, infecções virais, diabetes e desordens neurológicas, além de sua conhecida ação antioxidante. A família do citocromo P450 (CYP) é composta de monooxigenases, que desempenham um papel crucial no metabolismo de substâncias endógenas e exógenas, e participa do metabolismo de flavonóides. Neste trabalho, descrevemos a aplicação de uma metodologia in silico combinada para explorar a previsão dos sítios de metabolismo dos flavonóides quercetina, rutina, naringenina e naringina, encontrados em abundância na natureza. Utilizou-se uma metodologia baseada nos ligantes (LBDD) para previsão dos sítios de metabolismo (SOM) pelo programa MetaPrint2D e previsão dos metabólitos mais prováveis, combinado à metodologia baseada na estrutura do receptor (SBDD) através da utilização de docking molecular e minimização de energia, para prever a interação de quercetina, rutina, naringenina e naringina com as isoformas CYP2C9 e CYP1A2. Foram encontrados diversos metabólitos de Fase I, com distâncias cataliticamente ativas (< 5 Å) e sítios de interação descritos na literatura, apresentando reações de hidroxilação alifática, hidroxilação aromática, desalquilação e O-desalquilação. Os metabólitos propostos in silico correspondentes à hidroxilação na posição C3’ foram com coerentes com estudos in vitro e in vivo descritos na literatura para naringenina e naringina. Aminoácidos do sítio ativo das isoformas de CYP foram identificados como importantes no posicionamento dos flavonóides quercetina, rutina, naringenina e naringina em direção ao heme, confirmando a participação dessas isoformas no metabolismo de flavonóides.
