The off-target drugs that are being used to treat non-viral ailments selected by in silico studies were screened for their inhibitory activity against SARS-CoV-2 3CLpro enzyme as described under Methods section. The percent enzymatic activity was calculated as described in Fig. 1 legend. Blank values were subtracted from all the readings before calculating the percent activity. Representative of three individual experiments with triplicate values were presented graphically (n = 3). P value < 0.001 considered as statistically significant. One-way ANOVA with Dunnett’s Multiple Comparison post-hoc test used to calculate the statistical significance.
