Genetic surveillance of SARS-CoV-2 M <sup>pro</sup> reveals high sequence and structural conservation prior to the introduction of protease inhibitor Paxlovid
2022-03-30
Abstract excerpt
SARS-CoV-2 continues to represent a global health emergency as a highly transmissible, airborne virus. An important coronaviral drug target for treatment of COVID-19 is the conserved main protease (M pro ). Nirmatrelvir is a potent M pro inhibitor and the antiviral component of Paxlovid™. The significant viral sequencing effort during the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic represented a unique opportunity to assess poten...
