    In silico Prediction of Mozenavir as potential drug for SARS-CoV-2 infection via Binding Multiple Drug Targets Estari Mamidalaa*, Rakesh Davellab, Swapna Gurrapuc, Munipally Praveen Kumard, Abhiave a,b,c,d Infectious Diseases Research Lab, Department of Zoology, Kakatiya University, Warangal, Telangana-506 009, India e Division of ISRM, Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR), Department of Health Research, New Delhi, India *Corresponding should be addressed to Estari Mamidala: [email protected] Keywords: Mozenavir, SARS-CoV-2, Mpro, ACE-2, RdRp, S glycoprotein, Furin ABSTRACT Since the epidemic began in November 2019, no viable medicine against SARS-CoV-2 has been discovered. The typical medication discovery strategy requires several years of rigorous research and development as well as a significant financial commitment, which is not feasible in the face of the current epidemic. Through molecular docking and dynamic simulation studies, we used the FDA-approved drug mezonavir against the most important viral targets, including spike (S) glycoprotein, Transmembrane serine protease 2 (TMPRSS2), RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp), Main protease (Mpro), human angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE-2), and furin. These targets are critical for viral replication and infection propagation because they play a key role in replication/transcription and host cell recognition. Molecular docking revealed that the antiviral medication mozenavir showed a stronger affinity for SARS-CoV-2 target proteins than reference medicines in this investigation. We discovered that mozenavir increases the complex's stability and validates the molecular docking findings using molecular dynamics modelling. Furin, a target protein of COVID-19, has a greater binding affinity (-12.04 kcal/mol) than other COVID-19 target proteins, forming different hydrogen bonds and polar and hydrophobic interactions, suggesting that it might be used as an antiviral treatment against SARS- CoV-2.
