Pharmacophore models generated using six alkaloids. (a) Pharmacophore-1 (Pm-01) with three features, including HBA (green), HBD (pink), and HY (blue). (b) Compound wilfordinine G mapping with pharmacophore-1. (c) Heat map analysis of pharmacophore model validation. (d) Compound wilfornine E, wilforjine, euojaponine K, wilfordinine H, wilfordinine D, hyponine A, euojaponine L, hypoglaunine E, wilfordinine E, and hyponine B mapping with pharmacophore-5 (Pm-05).
