| T149 |
0-131 |
Sentence |
denotes |
The dynamics stability of the RBD-ACE2-naltrexone complex was analyzed by performing all-atoms MD simulations of 100 ns in GROMACS. |
| T150 |
132-296 |
Sentence |
denotes |
The backbone RMSD analysis provides important information on the stability of protein and protein-ligand complexes and the time when simulation reached equilibrium. |
| T151 |
297-422 |
Sentence |
denotes |
The RMSD of the RBD-ACE2-naltrexone complex displayed an average RMSD ∼2.46 Å throughout the entire simulation (Figure 3(A)). |
| T152 |
423-574 |
Sentence |
denotes |
Besides, the RMSD of ligand was also found to be stable (red line in Figure 3(A)) with very minimal deviation as compared to the starting conformation. |
| T153 |
575-736 |
Sentence |
denotes |
Overall, the complex system displayed the least backbone deviation, indicates that docked conformation is accurate and remained stable over the 100 ns timescale. |
| T154 |
737-939 |
Sentence |
denotes |
Radiuses of gyration assess the compactness of the system, where a compact gyradius of ∼3.24 nm for the complex indicates the consistent shape and size of the system during the simulation (Figure 3(B)). |
| T155 |
940-1088 |
Sentence |
denotes |
The residue flexibility of protease and RBD-ACE2/Naltrexone complex was examined by performing Cα RMSF analysis of both the sub-units (Figure 3(C)). |
| T156 |
1089-1229 |
Sentence |
denotes |
The average RMSF of ACE2 was found to be 0.14 nm, while for the RBD it was reported to be 0.17 nm (for the receptor-binding motif ∼0.16 nm). |
| T157 |
1230-1439 |
Sentence |
denotes |
The receptor-binding motif of RBD displayed a high degree of flexibility and the residues participated in the ligand interaction also portrayed higher RMSF indicating their participation in ligand recognition. |
