    Snippet: In this comutational work a hybrid quantum mechanics/molecular mechanics approach, the MD-PMM approach, is used to investigate the proton transfer reaction the activates the catalytic activity of SARS-CoV-2 main protease. The proton transfer thermodynamics is investigated for the apo ensyme (i.e., without any bound substrate or inhibitor) and in the presence of a inhibitor, N3, which was previously shown to covalently bind SARS-CoV-2 main protease.
