Tuning proton transfer thermodynamics in SARS-Cov-2 main protease: implications for catalysis and inhibitor design

The catalytic reaction in SARS-CoV-2 main protease is activated by a proton transfer (PT) from Cys145 to His41. The same PT reaction is likely also required for the covalent binding of some classes of inhibitors. Here we use a hybrid quantum/classical approach to investigate the PT thermodynamics in...
