Virtual screening and molecular dynamics simulation to identify potential SARS-CoV-2 3CLpro inhibitors from a natural product compounds library

Based on the crystal structure of the 3C-like protease/Nsp5 (PDB ID 6W63), virtual hits were screened from a natural product compounds database—containing 407270 natural products—by using the high-throughput virtual screening (HTVS) module of Discovery Studio software, and then filtering by “Lipinsk...
