Coronavirus Main Proteinase (3CL pro ) Structure: Basis for Design of Anti-SARS Drugs
Abstract
A novel coronavirus has been identified as the causative agent of severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS). The viral main proteinase (M pro , also called 3CL pro ), which controls the activities of the coronavirus replication complex, is an attractive target for therapy. We determined crystal structures for human coronavirus (strain 229E) M pro and for an inhibitor complex of porcine coronavirus [transmissible gastroenteritis virus (TGEV)] M pro , and we constructed a homology model for SARS coronavirus (SARS-CoV) M pro . The structures reveal a remarkable degree of conservation of the substrate-binding sites, which is further supported by recombinant SARS-CoV M pro -mediated cleavage of a TGEV M pro substrate. Molecular modeling suggests that available rhinovirus 3C pro inhibitors may be modified to make them useful for treating SARS.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
