Multi-target potential of Indian phytochemicals against SARS-CoV-2: A docking, molecular dynamics and MM-GBSA approach extended to Omicron B.1.1.529.

Summary

This study looked at using naturally occurring substances (phytochemicals) as potential treatments for COVID-19. The researchers tested these substances against specific proteins in the SARS-CoV-2 virus and identified some promising candidates for further research. Given the persistent threat of COVID-19 and the need for additional prevention and treatment options, this work could have significant implications for future efforts to control the spread of the disease.

In silico screening of natural compounds to inhibit interaction of human ACE2 receptor and spike protein of SARS-CoV-2 for the prevention of COVID-19.

Summary

Researchers screened a library of phytochemicals for their potential to inhibit the binding of ACE2 receptors to the spike protein of SARS-CoV-2. Out of 686 compounds, 20 were found to bind with energy ranging from -11.8 to -6.9 kcal/mol. Four compounds were found to be non-toxic and stable in molecular dynamics simulations and may prevent SARS-CoV-2 infection by inhibiting viral entry into host cells. These compounds are Hinokinin, Gmelanone, Isocolumbin, and Tinocordioside.
