    Currently, scientists have devoted great efforts to finding effective treatments to combat COVID-19 infections. Although noble metal nanoparticles are able to realize protein modifications, their interactions with the protein are still unclear from the atomic perspective. To supply a general understanding, in this work, we have carried out theoretical calculations to investigate the interaction between protein segments (RBD1, RBD2, RBD3) of SARS-Cov-2 spike protein and a series of noble metal (Au, Ag, Cu, Pd, Pt) surfaces regarding the binding strength, protein orientations, and electronic modulations. In particular, the Au surface has shown the strongest binding preferences for the protein segments, which induces electron transfer between the Au and receptor-binding domain (RBD) segments. This further leads to the polarization of segments for virus denaturation. This work has offered a direct visualization of protein interactions with noble metal surfaces from the atomic level, which will benefit anti-virus material developments in the future.
