Evolutionary Path and Host-selection Mechanism of SARS-CoV-2

Here, through massive plain MD simulations, enhanced sampling calculations, free energy-based alchemical transformation and bioinformatics we show that SARS-CoV-2 likely evolved in Rhinolophus affinis bats by acquiring a surprisingly-high affinity for their ACE2 receptors.
