Crystal structure of SARS-CoV-2 main protease provides a basis for design of improved α-ketoamide inhibitors

Linlin Zhang, Daizong Lin, Xinyuanyuan Sun, Ute Curth et al.

Short summary

The crystal structure of the SARS-CoV-2 main protease (Mpro) has been determined, revealing its complex with an improved α-ketoamide inhibitor. This structural insight enables the design of potent Mpro inhibitors with enhanced plasma half-life and lung tropism.
