In Silico study showing that ivermectin, rifabutin, rifapentine, fidaxomicin, and 7-methyl-guanosine-5′-triphosphate-5′-guanosine could be potential inhibitors of the SARS-CoV-2 RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp). Authors used molecular docking to screen 44 RNA polymerase inhibitor drug candidates, finding that these five compounds had the highest binding affinity to RdRp, even higher than remdesivir and favipiravir which were used as positive controls. The amino acids Y32, K47, Y122, Y129, H133, N138, D140, T141, S709 and N781 in RdRp were identified as a potential common drug surface hotspot for interaction with the inhibitors.

The pandemic prevalence of COVID-19 has become a very serious global health issue. Scientists all over the world have been seriously attempting in the discovery of a drug to combat SARS-CoV-2. It has been found that RNAdependent RNA polymerase (RdRp) plays a crucial role in SARS-CoV-2 replication, and thus could be a potential drug target. Here, comprehensive computational approaches including drug repurposing and molecular docking were employed to predict an effective drug candidate targeting RdRp of SARS-CoV-2. This study revealed that Rifabutin, Rifapentine, Fidaxomicin, 7-methyl-guanosine-5′-triphosphate-5′-guanosine and Ivermectin have a potential inhibitory interaction with RdRp of SARS-CoV-2 and could be effective drugs for COVID-19. In addition, virtual screening of the compounds from ZINC database also allowed the prediction of two compounds (ZINC09128258 and ZINC09883305) with pharmacophore features that interact effectively with RdRp of SARS-CoV-2, indicating their potentiality as effective inhibitors of the enzyme. Furthermore, ADME analysis along with analysis of toxicity was also undertaken to check the pharmacokinetics and drug-likeness properties of the two compounds. Comparative structural analysis of protein-inhibitor complexes revealed that the amino acids Y32, K47, Y122, Y129, H133, N138, D140, T141, S709 and N781 are crucial for drug surface hotspot in the RdRp of SARS-CoV-2.
