Abstract

We propose to apply the advanced molecular modeling approaches based on the quantum mechanics/molecular mechanics (QM/MM) methods to (i) elucidate molecular mechanisms of inhibition of the SARS-CoV-2 Main protease by promising drugs, and (ii) characterize molecular assemblies of these drugs with the fluorescent protein biomarkers, which can be used to trace drug delivery in human bodies.
