Their quantum properties were examined using density functional theory (DFT); the ligand‐protein inhibitability was evaluated using molecular docking simulation; physicochemical properties were obtained from QSARIS‐based analysis in reference to Lipinski's rule of five; pharmacokinetic parameters were assessed by ADMET‐based analysis. DFT calculations indicate that there are no abnormal bonding constraints observed; NBO analysis suggests all possessing favorable electric configurations for intermolecular inhibition. Regarding ligand‐2VIU, the order for static inhibitability is V3‐2VIU > V2‐2VIU > V1‐2VIU > V5‐2VIU > V4‐2VIU; Regarding ligand‐6LU7, the corresponding order follows: V2‐6LU7 > V3‐6LU7 > V1‐6LU7 > V5‐6LU7 > V4‐6LU7. An exceptional hydrophilic bonding (π‐cation) with the associated Gibbs free energy of ‐10.9 kcal.mol‐1 is detected in inhibitory complex V1‐2VIU. QSARIS‐based analysis reveals that all the candidates are highly bio‐compatible. ADMET‐based analysis specifies V2 and V3 as being safe and suitable for the use as orally administrated drugs. The results encourage further investigations for more in‐depth mechanisms and experimental validations, such as molecular dynamics simulation and in vitro enzyme assays.","PeriodicalId":23525,"journal":{"name":"Vietnam Journal of Chemistry","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2022-05-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90137613","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Spike protein is a class I glycoprotein trimeric TM involved in viral entry and infection. Four major targets to inhibit the SARS‐CoV‐2 virus are spike protein, angiotensin‐converting enzyme 2 (ACE2), main protease and the enzyme RNA‐dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp). In this study, we evaluated the inhibitory potential of natural antiviral compounds against spike protein, ACE2, main protease, RdRp targets by molecular docking and molecular dynamics simulations. Lipinski Rule of Five was used to evaluate the drug‐like properties of these compounds. The pkCSM tool was used to assess the pharmacokinetic parameters of prospective substances. Based on the ChemFaces database, we have collected 273 natural antiviral compounds. The results showed that the 7/273 compounds with the most potential to inhibit SARS‐CoV‐2 were: hinokiflavone, sotetsuflavone, mulberroside C, daphnoretin, morellic acid, digitoxin, and hypericin. Among them, sotetsuflavone is the most potent compound that inhibits four targets, with drug‐like properties, good intestinal absorption, and low toxicity. The molecular dynamics simulation results of the complexes are also relatively stable. As a results, in vitro and in vivo test should be carried out to verify the potential for COVID‐19 treatment of this compound.","PeriodicalId":23525,"journal":{"name":"Vietnam Journal of Chemistry","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2022-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"84443870","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
