Abstract

The present study investigates the binding affinities of 61 FDA approved drugs against two key proteases of SARS-COV2, 3-chymotrypsin-like protease and papain-like protease. We also investigated the ADMET properties of the top 10 best binding drugs to understand the druglikeness property.
