T252 2286-2570 Sentence denotes RdRp/TF1 1.88 ± 0.03 29.86 ± 0.01 34420.69 ± 56.90 Next, we investigated the structural stability of remdesivir and eight polyphenols by estimating the temporal RMSDs of heavy atoms relative to their respective initial coordinates (see Figure S2B in the Supplementary Information).
T253 2571-2724 Sentence denotes It is evident from Figure S2B that EGCG, myricetin, quercetagetin, TF1, TF3 displayed a rigid behavior in the bound form with an average RMSD of < 1.0 Å.
T254 2725-2887 Sentence denotes However, remdesivir, TF2a, TF2b and hesperidin showed higher fluctuations as compared to the abovementioned polyphenols, and an average RMSD of > 2.0 Å was noted.
T255 2888-3042 Sentence denotes To identify the regions which are flexible, the root-mean-square fluctuations (RMSFs) of Cα atoms of each residue are calculated and shown in Figure 3(B).
T256 3043-3214 Sentence denotes From this analysis, we can get a better insight into what extent the binding of remdesivir and natural polyphenols affects the residual flexibility of RdRp (mainly Nsp12).

T259 3426-3559 Sentence denotes Regions around Asn150, Asp260, Arg305, Asn360, and Phe440 are found to be more flexible compared to the other area for all complexes.
T260 3560-3884 Sentence denotes The binding pocket residues, such as Asp452, Lys545, Lys551, Tyr455, Arg553, Ala554, Arg555, Thr556, Asp618, Tyr619, pro620, Lys621, Cys622, Asp623 Arg624, Asn691, Asp760, Asp761, Phe793, Met794, Ser795, Lys798, Trp800, Glu811, Phe812, and Ser814 exhibited considerably low fluctuations for all the RdRp-inhibitor complexes.
T261 3885-4028 Sentence denotes In the case of RdRp/TF3 and RdRp/TF2a, the binding site residues displayed lesser fluctuations compared to the other RdRp-polyphenol complexes.
T262 4029-4133 Sentence denotes This suggests that TF3 and TF2a are likely to be bound to RdRp more strongly than the other polyphenols.
T263 4134-4325 Sentence denotes Since the radius of gyration (RoG) helps us to understand the protein structural compactness, RoG of each complex was monitored and represented in Figure S3A in the Supplementary Information.
T264 4326-4566 Sentence denotes The average values of RoG are 29.96 Å, 29.52 Å, 29.60 Å, 29.86 Å, 29.75 Å, 29.88 Å, 29.84 Å, 29.74 Å and 29.86 Å for RdRp complexed with remdesivir, EGCG, TF3, TF2b, TF2a, myricetin, quercetagetin, hesperidin and TF1 respectively (Table 3).
T265 4567-4651 Sentence denotes This suggests that the structural compactness remained unchanged during simulations.
T266 4652-4846 Sentence denotes Finally, the solvent-accessible surface area (SASA) was also explored, and the time evolution of SASA for four RdRp-polyphenol complexes are shown in Figure S3B in the Supplementary Information.
T267 4847-4898 Sentence denotes The average values of SASA are reported in Table 3.
T268 4899-5010 Sentence denotes Binding of an inhibitor to the substrate changes SASA and sometimes could greatly affect the protein structure.

T271 5214-5307 Sentence denotes Thus, it can be suggested that the binding of TF3 could potentially reduce protein expansion.
