Exploring Potential Therapeutic Agents for the Treatment of COVID-19 via in-silico Methods

Abstract:

Molecular docking was used to assess the binding affinities of different active compounds to the SARS-CoV-2 3CLpro and PLpro proteins. According to the results, the native ligands of the evaluated proteins had the highest binding affinities. The native ligand of 3CLpro is titled WU-02 and has a binding affinity of -7.9 for the protein. The native ligand of Plpro is titled inhibitor 3k and has an affinity of -8.6 towards the protein. Out of the evaluated molecules, shogaol and 6-gingerol had high affinities for 3CLpro. Other molecules that showed a high affinity were 8 and 10 gingerol (-5.4 kcal/mol), and S-allyl-cysteine (-5.5 kcal/mol). In the case of PLpro, shogaol stands out with an affinity of -7.6 kcal/mol followed by 6 and 8 gingerol. The findings imply that these compounds could be good inhibitors of the SARS-CoV-2 PLpro and 3CLpro proteins. However, further research is needed to establish the effectiveness and safety of these drugs in vitro and in vivo.
