Structure and dynamics of SARS-CoV-2 proofreading exoribonuclease ExoN

Nicholas H. Moeller et al.

Summary: This study reveals the structure of the ExoN protein in severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), which plays a crucial role in the accurate replication of the virus's RNA genome. The structure demonstrates how ExoN binds to its cofactor nsp10 and interacts with RNA substrates. The findings have implications for the development of antiviral drugs and strategies to mitigate the virulence of coronaviruses.

The oral protease inhibitor (PF-07321332) protects Syrian hamsters against infection with SARS-CoV-2 variants of concern

Rana Abdelnabi et al.

Summary: There is an urgent need for potent and selective antivirals against SARS-CoV-2. Pfizer has developed PF-07321332 (PF-332), a powerful inhibitor of the viral main protease (Mpro, 3CLpro), which can be taken orally and is currently in clinical development. In this study, it was found that PF-332 has equal in vitro activity against the four SARS-CoV-2 variants of concern and can completely halt replication of the alpha variant in human airway epithelial cells. The treatment with PF-332 protected Syrian Golden hamsters against infection with the beta and delta variants and prevented transmission of the SARS-CoV-2 (B.1.617.2) variant to untreated co-housed sentinels.

The coronavirus proofreading exoribonuclease mediates extensive viral recombination

Jennifer Gribble et al.

Summary: Recombination is essential for coronavirus diversity and the emergence of new strains. The mechanisms of CoV recombination are not well understood, but studies have shown extensive and diverse recombination products in CoVs during replication. The nsp14-ExoN protein is crucial for native recombination in CoVs, highlighting its potential as a target for inhibitors to control SARS-CoV-2 and future emerging zoonotic CoVs.

Tipiracil binds to uridine site and inhibits Nsp15 endoribonuclease NendoU from SARS-CoV-2

Youngchang Kim et al.

Summary: SARS-CoV-2 Nsp15 is a uridine-specific endoribonuclease that interferes with the innate immune response and is a potential target for therapeutic intervention. Studies have shown that Tipiracil inhibits the activity of Nsp15 by interacting with the uridine binding pocket. This discovery provides new insights for the development of drugs based on uracil scaffold.

An atomistic model of the coronavirus replication-transcription complex as a hexamer assembled around nsp15

Jason K. Perry et al.

Summary: The SARS-CoV-2 replication-transcription complex is a hexameric assembly of nonstructural viral proteins centered on nsp15, which recruit various other proteins to perform different functions such as RNA unwinding and mRNA capping. The model provides insights into the intricate processes involved in viral genome replication and mRNA transcription.
