Investigation of Cu metal nanoparticles with different morphologies to inhibit SARS-CoV-2 main protease and spike glycoprotein using Molecular Docking and Dynamics Simulation

Nowadays, considering the spread of the coronavirus as a global threat, scientific research on this virus through simulation has been increasing. In this study, effect of Cu nanocluster on prevention and control of disease transmission was examined using molecular docking and molecular dynamics simu...

description Nowadays, considering the spread of the coronavirus as a global threat, scientific research on this virus through simulation has been increasing. In this study, effect of Cu nanocluster on prevention and control of disease transmission was examined using molecular docking and molecular dynamics simulation studies on the SARS-CoV-2 main protease and spike glycoprotein. The cytotoxicity of different shapes of copper NPs and resonance changes of their surface plasmons on inactivation of the coronavirus was examined in order to control replication of coronavirus through copper NPs, active site of protease and spike glycoprotein. The simulations results showed that interactions of SARS-CoV-2 main protease and spike glycoprotein target and cylindrical and conical copper NPs ligands were more efficient than spherical copper NPs.
