Snippet: Till date millions of people are infected by SARS-CoV-2 throughout the world, while no potential therapeutics or vaccines are available to combat this deadly virus. Blocking of human angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE-2) receptor, the binding site of SARS-CoV-2 spike protein, an effective strategy to discover a drug for COVID-19. Herein we have selected 24 anti-bacterial and anti-viral drugs and made a comprehensive analysis by screened them virtually against ACE-2 receptor to find the best bl
Document: Till date millions of people are infected by SARS-CoV-2 throughout the world, while no potential therapeutics or vaccines are available to combat this deadly virus. Blocking of human angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE-2) receptor, the binding site of SARS-CoV-2 spike protein, an effective strategy to discover a drug for COVID-19. Herein we have selected 24 anti-bacterial and anti-viral drugs and made a comprehensive analysis by screened them virtually against ACE-2 receptor to find the best blocker by molecular docking and molecular dynamics studies. Analysis of results revealed that, Cefpiramide (CPM) showed the highest binding affinity of −9.1 kcal/mol. Furthermore, MD study for 10 ns and evaluation of parameters like RMSD, RMSF, radius of gyration, solvent accessible surface area analysis confirmed that CPM effectively binds and blocks ACE-2 receptor efficiently.
