The emergence of the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) with the most contagious variants, alpha (B.1.1.7), beta (B.1.351), delta (B.1.617.2), and Omicron (B.1.1.529) has continuously added a higher number of morbidity and mortality, globally. The present integrated bioinformatics-cheminformatics approach was employed to locate potent antiviral marine alkaloids that could be used against SARS-CoV-2. Initially, 57 antiviral marine alkaloids and two repurposing drugs were selected from an extensive literature review. Then, the putative target enzyme SARS-CoV-2 main protease (SARS-CoV-2-Mpro) was retrieved from the protein data bank and carried out a virtual screening-cum-molecular docking study with all candidates using PyRx 0.8 and AutoDock 4.2 software. Further, the molecular dynamics (MD) simulation of the two most potential alkaloids and a drug docking complex at 100 ns (with two ligand topology files from PRODRG and ATB server, separately), the molecular mechanics/Poisson-Boltzmann surface area (MM/PBSA) free energy, and contributions of entropy were investigated. Then, the physicochemical-toxicity-pharmacokinetics-drug-likeness profiles, the frontier molecular orbitals energies (highest occupied molecular orbital, lowest unoccupied molecular orbital, and DeltaE), and structural-activity relationship were assessed and analyzed. Based on binding energy, 8-hydroxymanzamine (-10.5 kcal/mol) and manzamine A (-10.1 kcal/mol) from all alkaloids with darunavir (-7.9 kcal/mol) and lopinavir (-7.4 kcal/mol) against SARS-CoV-2-Mpro were recorded. The MD simulation (RMSD, RMSF, Rg, H-bond, MM/PBSA binding energy) illustrated that the 8-hydroxymanzamine exhibits a static thermodynamic feature than the other two complexes. The predicted physicochemical, toxicity, pharmacokinetics, and drug-likeness profiles also revealed that the 8-hydroxymanzamine could be used as a potential lead candidate individually and/or synergistically with darunavir or lopinavir to combat SARS-CoV-2 infection after some pharmacological validation.
