Also, dynamical residue cross-correlation map with principal component analysis depicted the stable binding of Nos-Hcq conjugate to Mpro domains with optimal secondary structure statistics of complex dynamics. Similar binding sites were employed for performing the molecular docking of the noscapine conjugations with the target Mpro of coronavirus using the Hex 8.0 and SwissDock servers. With these significant results, it can be attributed that Nos-Hcq conjugate has a high potential to bind the target Mpro enzyme and further can be used as effective therapeutics for SARS-CoV-2. We report the efficient combinatorial therapy by conjugating the noscapine (antitussive drug) with potential hydroxychloroquine (Nos-Hcq) against the SARS-CoV-2, through the computational assays with insights into the experimental results. ./cache/cord-324166-6ydn2bvy.txt ./txt/cord-324166-6ydn2bvy.txt
