In Silico Study on Spice-Derived Antiviral Phytochemicals Against SARS-CoV-2 TMPRSS2 Target

We predicted the structure of TMPRSS2 (transmembrane protease serine 2), a host protein that truncates spike protein of SARS-CoV-2. Then we docked 18 anti-viral compounds found in Indian spices against the catalytic domain of TMPRSS2. We then performed rigorous molecular simulation dynamics simulation to screen the best natural phytochemical which could act as a potential inhibitor of TMPRSS2 activation..
