“…Inhibition of protease (chymotrypsin-like protease, 3CLpro or main protease, Mpro) ( Joshi et al, 2020 ; Rudrapal et al, 2020 ; Umadevi et al, 2020 , Sepay et al, 2020 , Chowdhury, 2020 , Gowrishankar et al, 2021 ), and RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp) polymerase ( Motiwale et al, 2020 , Bhat, 2021 , Naik et al, 2021 , Ishola et al, 2021 , Shree et al, 2020 , Schoeman and Fielding, 2019 ) enzymes has been attributed to be crucial for blocking maturation of viral particles, viral replication and further infection. Several research related to the development of natural products as inhibitors of protease and polymerase enzymes have already been reported using computational modeling and approaches (Prajapat et al, 2020; Motiwale et al, 2020 ; Schoeman and Fieldin, 2019).…”
