In silico assessment of diterpenes as potential inhibitors of SARS-COV-2 main protease.
Aim: We aimed to investigate the potential inhibitory effects of diterpenes on SARS-CoV-2 main protease (Mpro).
Materials & methods: We performed a virtual screening of diterpenoids against Mpro using molecular docking, molecular dynamics simulation and absorption, distribution, metabolism and excretion) analysis.
Results: Some tested compounds followed Lipinski's rule and showed drug-like properties. Some diterpenoids possessed remarkable binding affinities with SARS-CoV-2 Mpro and drug-like pharmacokinetic properties. Three derivatives exhibited structural deviations lower than 1 Å.
Conclusion: The findings of the study suggest that some of the diterpenes could be candidates as potential inhibitors for Mpro of SARS-CoV-2.
