Identification of a series of pyrrolo-pyrimidine-based SARS-CoV-2 Mac1 inhibitors that repress coronavirus replication
23 May 2025
Abstract excerpt
ABSTRACT Coronaviruses (CoVs) can emerge from zoonotic sources and cause severe diseases in humans and animals. CoVs encode for a macrodomain (Mac1) that binds to and removes ADP-ribose from target proteins. SARS-CoV-2 Mac1 promotes virus replication in the presence of interferon (IFN) and blocks the production of IFN, although the mechanisms by which it mediates these functions remain unknown. Mac1 inhibitors...
