Complex stability by molecular dynamics. A. The stability of the complex formed by the compound with virucidal effect (VOAC-OH) and Domain III of ZIKV envelope protein was evaluated during 50 ns of simulation. B. The site with the lowest oscillation of simulation is shown. The y-axis represents the root mean square deviation (RMSD), which represents the average oscillation of the distance between the atoms of the complex components in nanometers (nm), and the x-axis represents the timescale in nanoseconds (ns). The complex is considered stable if the oscillation from the initial position of the complex is below 0.3 nm
