The novel coronavirus, severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), invades a human cell via human angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (hACE2) as the entry, causing the severe coronavirus disease (COVID-19). The interactions between hACE2 and the spike glycoprotein (S protein) of SARS-CoV-2 hold the key to understanding the molecular mechanism to develop treatment and vaccines, yet the dynamic nature of these interactions in fluctuating surroundings is very challenging to probe by those structure determination techniques requiring the structures of samples to be fixed. Here we demonstrate, by a proof-of-concept simulation of infrared (IR) spectra of S protein and hACE2, that time-resolved spectroscopy may monitor the real-time structural information of the protein-protein complexes of interest, with the help of machine learning. Our machine learning protocol is able to identify fine changes in IR spectra associated with variation of the secondary structures of S protein of the coronavirus. Further, it is three to four orders of magnitude faster than conventional quantum chemistry calculations. We expect our machine learning protocol would accelerate the development of real-time spectroscopy study of protein dynamics.
