Mechanism of inhibition of SARS-CoV-2 M(pro) by N3 peptidyl Michael acceptor explained by QM/MM simulations and design of new derivatives with tunable chemical reactivity

The SARS-CoV-2 main protease (M(pro)) is essential for replication of the virus responsible for the COVID-19 pandemic, and one of the main targets for drug design. Here, we simulate the inhibition process of SARS-CoV-2 M(pro) with a known Michael acceptor (peptidyl) inhibitor, N3. The free energy la...
