  1. aωB97X-D/6-31 G(d) as the density functional theory (DFT) method, ANI-2x (machine learning potentials with DFT accuracy, MLP-DFT), ANI-1ccx (machine learning potentials with coupled-cluster accuracy, MLP-CC) and AIQM1 (MLP-CC) as machine learning potentials (MLPs), Amber ff14SB as the MM method, and GFN2-xTB as the semi-empirical (SE) method.
  2. bTwo machine learning potentials were used to describe the drug/inhibitor molecules due to the element limitations (C, H, O, N) of ANI-1ccx and AIQM1.
  3. cAIQM1 combined with GFN2-xTB methods were used to describe the drug/inhibitor molecules containing P or Br elements due to the element limitations (C, H, O, N) of AIQM1.
  4. dThe high layer of M6R includes the drug/inhibitor molecule and its neighboring residues within 3 Å.
