A novel druggable interprotomer pocket in the capsid of rhino- and enteroviruses
11 Jun 2019
Abstract excerpt
Rhino- and enteroviruses are important human pathogens, against which no antivirals are available. The best-studied inhibitors are "capsid binders" that fit in a hydrophobic pocket of the viral capsid. Employing a new class of entero-/rhinovirus inhibitors and by means of cryo-electron microscopy (EM), followed by resistance selection and reverse genetics, we discovered a hitherto unknown druggable pocket that is...
