In order to perform molecular dynamics simulations, three structures of the SARS CoVMpro complexed with the octapeptides obtained from the docking, were prepared. However, one atom of the Na+ was also added in each system of the enzyme-substrate complexed of the octapeptide P3Lys and P3Arg due to it neutralized the amino acid, Lys and Arg. In the simulation, each time step was set to 2 fs and the simulation of the whole system performed for 2,000 ps (2 ns). The structure of the enzyme-substrate complex (SARS CoVMpro-octapeptide) obtained from molecular docking was then subjected to MD simulation. ./cache/cord-255293-8necodtw.txt ./txt/cord-255293-8necodtw.txt
