Trichostatin A binds to the surface groove of SARS-CoV-2 Mpro with high stability. (A) Trichostatin A is predicted to be embedded in the Mpro catalytic groove with good shape complementarity. (B) The cartoon and stick representation of binding mode of trichostatin A: the hydrogen bonds between trichostatin A and LEU-141 or HIS-163 were marked by yellow dashed lines. The C-S bond between trichostatin A and CYS-145 was also indicated (arrow). (C) Illustration of the covalent reaction between trichostatin A and CYS-145 thiol.
