Identification of naturally occurring drug-resistant mutations of SARS-CoV-2 papain-like protease
15 May 2025
Abstract excerpt
The SARS-CoV-2 papain-like protease (PLpro) is a cysteine protease that cleaves viral polyproteins and antagonizes the host immune response during viral replication. Jun12682 and PF-07957472 are the first-in-class PLpro inhibitors showing potent in vivo antiviral efficacy in mouse models. In this study, we characterize naturally occurring mutations at residues located at the drug-binding site of Jun12682. The...
