A team of San Diego Supercomputer Center (SDSC) researchers recently created a pharmacophore model and conducted data mining of the database of drugs approved by the U.S. Federal Drug Administration (FDA) to find potential inhibitors of papain-like protease of SARS-CoV2, one of the main viral proteins responsible for COVID-19.
The study, recently published in PeerJ, found that among the drugs computationally selected were those currently used to inhibit HIV, Hepatitis C, and cytomesalovirus (CMV)…
