Cleavage of the selective autophagy receptor SQSTM1/p62 by the SARS-CoV-2 main protease NSP5 prevents the autophagic degradation of viral membrane proteins

Yabin Zhang et al.

Summary: Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) has caused a global pandemic of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). The study reveals that the main protease of SARS-CoV-2, NSP5, effectively cleaves the selective autophagy receptor p62, thereby disrupting selective autophagy. The research also shows that p62 specifically interacts with the viral membrane protein M, promoting its autophagic degradation. These findings provide new insights for the development of anti-COVID-19 drugs targeting autophagy and NSP5.

Prediction of coronavirus 3C-like protease cleavage sites using machine-learning algorithms

Huiting Chen et al.

Summary: This study systematically investigated the diversity of cleavage sites of the coronavirus 3CL protease and found that the cleavage motifs were highly conserved in Alpha, Beta, and Gamma coronaviruses. A random forest model was built to predict the cleavage sites and achieved high accuracy. The study also identified numerous human proteins that may be cleaved by the 3CL protease. Overall, this research provides an effective tool for identifying cleavage sites and offers insights into the pathogenicity of coronaviruses.
