In recent years, several in vivo and in vitro screening of hits approaches have given a preference of study insufficiently explored natural products from different sources such as compounds collection from various institutions, combinatorial chemistry libraries, and databases in a hope to identify an new unique antiviral agent. PLpro is required for processing viral poly proteins to generate a functional replicate complex and implicated in cleaving proteinaceous post-translational modifications on host proteins, and NSP 12, also known as RNA-dependent RNA polymerase catalyzes the synthesis of viral RNA thus considered as a central component in the life cycle of viral, making them potential targets for anti-SARS drug discovery. This project aims to discover drugs targeting protease and helicase of SARS-CoV-2via virtual screening- a computer-based approach of manually curated lichen metabolites ligand library. Further, we will analyze the potential ligands absorption, distribution, metabolism and excretion - toxicity (ADMET). Over 250lichen metabolites were screened from the manually curated lichen library. we prepared a list of the top 5 ligands for each protein targets based on the CDOCKER interacting energy. Considering predicted ADMET and drug-likeness profiles four promising leads were identified. IN conclusion, we identified a potential lead for antiviral drug discovery against the SARS-COV-2.Our results will aid global efforts to find safe and effective remedies for COVID-19.
