Abstract

The molecular docking calculations have been employed to investigate the interactions a set of proteins with the repurposed anti-COVID drugs. The position of the therapeutic agents within the protein structure was dependent on a particular drug-protein system and varied from the binding cleft to the periphery of the polypeptide chain. Interactions involved in the drug-protein complexation includes predominantly hydrogen bonding and hydrophobic contacts. The obtained results may be of particular importance while developing the anti-COVID strategies as well as for deeper understanding of the drug pharmacodynamics and pharmacokinetics.
