Uncovering the Comparative Efficacy of Antiviral Drugs and Caricapapaya Phytocompound as VP2H inhibitors in Ebola virus: An Insilico Molecular Docking Analysis
Abstract: The Ebola virus is a fatal disease that transmits from wild animals to humans. Infected individuals' body fluids such as spit, blood, perspiration, faeces, blood, saliva, breast milk, sperm, or fomites can transmit Ebola. Adhesion to cell membranes and penetration into the host organism are essential aspects in viral growth. The presence of VP24, as well as nucleoproteins and structural proteins, is necessary for nucleocapsid formation and integration. The inhibition …
