A SARS-CoV-2 Mpro mutation conferring ensitrelvir resistance paradoxically increases nirmatrelvir susceptibility
2025-04-21
Abstract excerpt
<title>Abstract</title> <p>SARS-CoV-2 variants resistant to current antivirals remain a significant threat, particularly in high-risk patients. Although nirmatrelvir and ensitrelvir both target the viral 3CL protease (M<sup>pro</sup>), their distinct susceptibility profiles may allow alternative therapeutic approaches. Here, we identified a novel deletion mutation at glycine 23 (Δ23G) in M<sup>pro</sup> that conf...
