In Silico Study on Natural Chemical Compounds from Citric Essential Oils as Potential Inhibitors of an Omicron (BA.1) SARS-CoV-2 Mutants' Spike Glycoprotein.

The outcomes of this investigation hold significant potential for the utilization of a homology modeling approach for the prediction of RBD's secondary structure based on its sequence when the 3D structure of a mutated protein is not available. This opens the opportunities for further advancing the drug discovery process, offering novel avenues for the development of multifunctional, non-toxic natural medications.
