Abstract Current understanding about how the virus that causes COVID-19
spreads is largely based on what is known about similar coronaviruses.
Some of the Natural products are suitable drugs against SARS-CoV-2 main
protease. For recognizing a strong inhibitor, we have accomplished docking studies on the major virus protease with 4 natural product species as
anti COVID-19 (SARS-CoV-2), namely “Vidarabine”, “Cytarabine”, “Gemcitabine” and “Matrine” which have been extracted from Gillan’s leaves plants.
These are known as Chuchaq, Trshvash, Cote-Couto and Khlvash in Iran.
Among these four studied compounds, Cytarabine appears as a suitable compound with high effectiveness… More >
