Molecular docking was performed using the AutoDock Vina program (70) to investigate the detailed interactions between our compounds and ASFV pS273R. For the predocking treatment, all small molecules were optimized to their local energy minima. Due to the similarity active site between the adenovirus protease and ASFV protease, we consulted the adenovirus protease with the inhibitor complex as a model.
