Molecular docking was conducted as previous [22 (link)] using a representative structure of a 150-nanosecond molecular dynamics trajectory of Eco-MscL with a DHS molecule within the gated pore, described previously [20 (link)]. The binding pocket was identified by the SiteID module of the Sybyl-X2.11 software package [60 ]. Then flexible-ligand docking was performed for K05 with the Glide module of the Schrodinger software package following the standard procedure [61 ]. The top docking poses were manually examined and we found that the Top 2 docking poses are very similar and other docking poses have much worse docking scores (S2A Fig). Therefore, only the best docking pose was selected for further study.
