In this study, the protein of SARS-COV-2 (3CLpro, also named 3-chymotrypsin-like protease) was subjected to drug repurposing and virtual screening for potent drug identification followed by molecular dynamics simulation and binding free energy calculation. In the current study, the repurposing of anti-HIV drugs against the SARS-COV-2 main protease was carried out using structure-based screening methods. In this study, based on the results of bioinformatics analysis, we targeted 3CLpro from SARS-COV-2 using drugs repurposing (anti-HIV drugs) virtual drugs screening (TCM) approaches to shortlist the most potent compounds for the possible treatment. ./cache/cord-278362-pwi48i20.txt ./txt/cord-278362-pwi48i20.txt
