Pluteus cervinus  is a mushroom species that demands a systematic study of its medicinal values. This study aims to explore the mycochemical contents of  Pluteus cervinus  extract, and evaluate their anti-diabetic and antioxidant potency. Twelve organic compounds were identified using Gas Chromatogram-Mass Spectroscopy(GC-MS) analysis of the methanolic extract. All the mycochemicals identified were evaluated for their drug-likeness, pharmacokinetics and bioactivity using admetSAR and molinspiration webservers. The extract was evaluated for the inhibitory effect of α-amylase and DPPH free radical scavenging ability. To further support the anti-diabetic and antioxidant characteristic,  in silico  molecular docking analysis was done for all the identified mycochemicals. It was found that, 2-(3,4-dimethoxyphenyl)-N-[4-(4-methoxyphenyl)-tetrahydropyran-4-ylmethyl]-acetamide, one of the compounds in the extract shares structural similarity and comparable docking binding energy with natural α-amylase inhibitor. Further, the 2-(3,4-dimethoxyphenyl)-N-[4-(4-methoxyphenyl)-tetrahydropyran-4-ylmethyl]-acetamide also showed high binding energy with Human peroxiredoxin 5 and has a structural relationship with natural antioxidants containing tetrahydropyran derivatives.
