Abstract excerpt
All coronaviruses (CoVs) encode for a conserved macrodomain (Mac1) located in non-structural protein 3. Mac1 is an ADP-ribosylhydrolase that binds and hydrolyzes mono-ADP-ribose from target proteins. Previous work has shown that Mac1 is important for virus replication and pathogenesis. Within Mac1, there are several regions that are highly conserved across CoVs, including the glycine-isoleucine-phenylalanine...
