Figure 3.
The interaction pattern (after docking) for the best three thiazole compounds, 3a, 3b, and 3c, depicted using PyMOL software. The compounds are shown in yellow sticks, while the interacting residues form SARS-CoV-2 Mpro are depicted in blue sticks labeled with its one-letter codes. The formed H-bonds and hydrophobic contacts are shown in blue and dashed-gray lines, respectively.
