Descripción
To date, effective therapeutic treatments that confer strong attenuation against coronaviruses (CoVs) remain elusive. Among potential drug targets, the helicase of CoVs is attractive due to its sequence conservation and indispensability. We rely on atomistic molecular dynamics simulations to explore the structural coordination and dynamics associated with the SARS-CoV-2 Nsp13 apo enzyme, as well as their complexes with natural ligands. A complex communication network is revealed among the five domains of Nsp13, which is differentially activated because of the presence of the ligands, as shown by shear strain analysis, principal components analysis, dynamical cross-correlation matrix analysis, and water transport analysis. The binding free energy and the corresponding mechanism of action are presented for three small molecules that were shown to be efficient inhibitors of the previous SARS-CoV Nsp13 enzyme. Together, our findings provide critical fresh insights for rational design of broad-spectrum antivirals against CoVs.
