Abstract Dengue fever is a global health concern with no effective therapy. Screening synthetic chemicals, animal-originated compounds, and phytocompounds against Dengue virus (DENV) targets has failed to find dengue antivirals. The current study examines animal drugs as antagonists against NS2B-NS3(Pro), one of DENV's most promising therapeutic targets for dengue fever. Antiviral-Lycotoxin-An1a (An1a), a defence antiviral peptide isolated from the venom of Alopecosa nagpag, a toxic spider. Based on prior in vitro research, it was discovered that the venom peptide suppresses the action of DENV-2 NS2B-NS3(Pro). An1a peptide with NS2B-NS3(Pro) wild type (WT) and two mutants (H51N and S135A) was tested for anti-dengue characteristics using in silico analysis. The WT NS2B-NS3(Pro) has a catalytic triad of His51, Asp75, and Ser135 in the active site, but the mutants have N51 instead of His51 and Ala135 instead of Ser135. The dynamic sites of the three proteases (WT, H51N, S135A) and the peptide toxin (An1a) were taken into account to achieve molecular docking of An1a with WT NS2B-NS3(Pro) in conjunction with H51N and S135A. Cluspro-2 performs rigid-flexible docking to predict peptide binding affinity, effectiveness, and inhibitory consistency. Since the ligand had a higher binding affinity, docking score, and molecular interaction network, MD simulations and MM-GBSA free energy calculations were used to investigate the stability of the three protein-peptide complexes. The computer-aided screening and manufacture of spider venom-based anti-dengue medicines yielded intriguing results in the preliminary studies. This study is significant in defining the ideal therapeutic candidate against dengue infections.
