Distal Protein-Protein Interactions Contribute to SARS-CoV-2 Main Protease Substrate Binding and Nirmatrelvir Resistance

2024-04-02

Abstract excerpt

SARS-CoV-2 main protease, M pro , is responsible for the processing of the viral polyproteins into individual proteins, including the protease itself. M pro is a key target of anti-COVID-19 therapeutics such as nirmatrelvir (the active component of Paxlovid). Resistance mutants identified clinically and in viral passage assays contain a combination of active site mutations (e.g. E166V, E166A, L167F), which reduc...
