Unbinding ligands from SARS-CoV-2 Mpro via umbrella sampling simulations

The umbrella sampling (US) simulation is demonstrated to be an efficient approach for determining the unbinding pathway and binding affinity to the SARS-CoV-2 Mpro of small molecule inhibitors. The accuracy of US is in the same range as the linear interaction energy (LIE) and fast pulling of ligand...
