Viral diseases continue to be a public threat on a global scale day by day and the world is in a continuing battle with the novel deadly viral Diseases and with no prompt medicines accessible the scourge brought about by the disease is expanding step by step. The ongoing need to develop new antiviral drugs with fewer side-effects and that are effective against viral pathogens has spurred the research community to invest in various drug discovery strategies, one of which is drug repurposing the methods of finding most promising existing compounds which has able to give best positive effects against viral infections. We present a docking?based screening using a quantum mechanical scoring of drug Curcumin with Proteins with PDB id’s 4B3V, 5LK0, 6BM8, 4QUZ, 6SJV, 1JLF, 5EG7, 7K40 could display antiviral activity against Rubella, Hanta, Herpes, Noro, papilloma, HIV, Influenza, COVID19. Clearly, these compounds should be further evaluated in experimental assays and clinical trials to confirm their actual activity against the viral disease. We hope that repurposing of the drug from our recommendation may contribute to the rational drug design against the above viruses.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
