Identification of natural compounds as SARS-CoV-2 entry inhibitors by molecular docking-based virtual screening with bio-layer interferometry.

TL;DR: In this paper, the identification of natural compounds as potential SARS-CoV-2 entry inhibitors using the molecular docking-based virtual screening coupled with bilayer interferometry (BLI) was reported.
Journal ArticleDOI

Bioactive natural products in COVID-19 therapy

TL;DR: This paper reviewed published studies relating closely to bioactive natural products used in COVID-19 therapy in vitro to provide some essential guidance for anti-SARS-CoV-2 drug research and development.

Significance of the RBD mutations in the SARS-CoV-2 omicron: from spike opening to antibody escape and cell attachment.

TL;DR: The computationally investigated the role of the omicron RBD mutations on its structure and interactions with the surrounding domains in the spike trimer as well as with ACE2, suggesting that the mutations facilitate a more efficient RBD "down" to "up" conformation.

Molecular Interactions of Tannic Acid with Proteins Associated with SARS-CoV-2 Infectivity

TL;DR: A combination of experimental methods confirms the potential role of TA in the prevention of SARS-CoV-2 infectivity through the inhibition of extracellular RBD/ACE2 interactions and TMPRSS2 and 3CLpro activity and suggests that naturally occurring TA is a promising candidate to prevent and inhibit the infectivity of Sars-Cov-2.

Spike mutation D614G alters SARS-CoV-2 fitness.

TL;DR: Hamsters infected with SARS-CoV-2 expressing spike D614G (G614 virus) produced higher infectious titres in nasal washes and the trachea, but not in the lungs, supporting clinical evidence showing that the mutation enhances viral loads in the upper respiratory tract of COVID-19 patients and may increase transmission.
