“…To the best of our knowledge, there are no other MD simulations of paritaprevir–RBD and amentoflavone–RBD complexes. But, there are many stable MD simulations of the amentoflavone complex with the main protease (Ghosh et al, 2020 ; Lokhande et al, 2020 ; Mishra et al, 2020 ; Patil et al, 2021 ; Saravanan et al, 2020 ; Swargiary et al, 2020 ). For paritaprevir and simeprevir, stable MD simulations with the main protease and the uridylate-specific endoribonuclease (NSP15) have been obtained (Alamri et al, 2020 ; Khan, Jha, Amera, et al, 2020 ; Khan, Jha, Singh, et al, 2020 ).…”
