Abstract

At the request of the corresponding author, Dr. Wenyu Lu, of the published article entitled “A Study of Potential SARS-CoV-2 Antiviral Drugs and Preliminary Research of Their Molecular Mechanism, Based on Anti-SARS-CoV Drug Screening and Molecular Dynamics Simulation” by Xiaomeng Zhao, Ruixia Liu, Zhi Miao, Nan Ye, and Wenyu Lu (J Comput Biol; epub 1 Dec 2020; https://doi.org/10.1089/cmb.2020.0112 ), Journal of Computational Biology officially retracts the paper. Dr. Lu stated in his communication to the Editor that, “ due to personal reasons, our data is not perfect enough. I want to modify and add some content; I want to withdraw the manuscript. ” Though Dr. Lu did not provide details of the specific problems with the data, the Editor and Publisher agreed to the request to retract the paper.
