Abstract
2019 Novel corona-virus (2019-nCoV) emerged as a global threat and put the entire globe into unrest. Unavailability of explicit drug against the virus is more essential. This demanding situation requires development of bio-molecules for efficient treatment against severe acute SARS-CoV-2. The crystal structure of SARS-CoV-2 main protease (Mpro) is known and thus can be used for fast in silico docking. This may lead to identification of active bio-molecules including phytochemicals. In silico Molecular Docking revealed that the phytochemical, sulforaphane effectively binds to the active pocket of the SARS-CoV-2 main protease.
