Abstract

SARS-CoV-2 virus, as the causal agent for the COVID-19 pandemic, remains an enigma in the bioinformatics sense. Current efforts in drug and vaccine design in primarily targeting general devised protein domain while overlooking the specific features in the proteomics repertoire. However, the NCBI Conserved Domain Database (CDD) could annotate the specific features that are indispensable for a more advanced drug and vaccine design. In this regard, the annotation efforts were initiated with CDD database, and visualized with the 3D Protein Visualizer of Cn3D. The exsistence of the ATP and ADP binding protein with respected domains were found to be a very potential target for drug design. It is recommended that nucleoside inhibitor that could mimick the ATP molecule could serve as a potential drug lead agains SARS-CoV-2.
