SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19)-associated co-infections like "Aspergillosis", has recently baffled the world. Due to its key role in cell wall synthesis, in the present study UDP-glycosyltransferase, glucosamine-6-phosphate synthase and chitin synthase have been chosen as appropriate targets for molecular docking. The objective of the present study was molecular docking of eucalyptus essential oil component 1,8 cineole against cell wall enzymes followed by in vitro validation. For molecular docking, patch-dock web based online tool was used. Ligand-Protein 2D and 3D Interactions were also studied. Drug likeliness, toxicity profile and cancer cell line toxicity were also studied. Molecular docking results indicated that 1,8 cineole form hydrogen bonding and hydrophobic interactions with UDP-glycosyltransferase, glucosamine-6-phosphate synthase and chitin synthase enzymes. 1,8 cineole also depicted drug likeliness by showing compliance with the LIPINSKY rule, sufficient level of bioactivity and cancer cell line toxicity thus signifying its role as a potent anti-fungal drug.
