  • The repurposed drugs suramin and quinacrine inhibit cooperatively in vitro SARS-CoV-2 3CLpro

    • Authors : Eberle, Raphael J. (2020)

  • The causative agent of COVID-19 (SARS-CoV-2) has spread worldwide resulting in a pandemic of unprecedented magnitude. To date, no clinically safe drug or vaccine is available and the development of molecules to combat SARS-CoV-2 infections is imminent. A well-known strategy to identify molecules with inhibitory potential against SARS-CoV-2 proteins is the repurposing of clinically developed drugs, e.g., anti-parasitic drugs. The results described in this study dem...

  • An automatic pipeline for the design of irreversible derivatives identifies a potent SARS-CoV-2 Mpro inhibitor

    • Authors : Zaidman, Daniel; Gehrtz, Paul; Filep, Mihajlo (2020)

  • Present covalentizer, a computational pipeline for creating irreversible inhibitors based on complex structures of targets with known reversible binders. For each ligand, we create a custom-made focused library of covalent analogs. We use covalent docking, to dock these tailored covalent libraries and to find those that can bind covalently to a nearby cysteine while keeping some of the main interactions of the original molecule. We found ~11,000 cysteine...

  • Air and surface measurements of SARS-CoV-2 inside a bus during normal operation

    • Authors : Di Carlo, Piero; Chiacchiaretta, Piero; Sinjari, Bruna (2020)

  • Transmission pathways of SARS-CoV-2 are through aerosol, droplet and touching infected material. Indoor locations are more likely environments for the diffusion of the virus contagion among people, but direct detection of SARS-CoV-2 in air or on surfaces is quite sparse, especially regarding public transport. In fact, an important demand is to know how and if it is safe to use them. To understand the possible spreading of COVID-19 inside a ...

  • Closing coronavirus spike glycoproteins by structure-guided design

    • Authors : McCallum, Matthew; Walls, Alexandra C; Corti, Davide (2020)

  • The recent spillover of SARS-CoV-2 in the human population resulted in the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic which has already caused 4.9 million infections and more than 326,000 fatalities. To initiate infection the SARS-CoV-2 spike (S) glycoprotein promotes attachment to the host cell surface, determining host and tissue tropism, and fusion of the viral and host membranes. Although SARS-CoV- 2 S is the main target of neutralizing antibodies and the focus&...

  • In silico approach toward the identification of unique peptides from viral protein infection: Application to COVID-19

    • Authors : Orsburn, Benjamin C; Jenkins, Conor; Miller, Sierra M (2020)

  • We describe a method for rapid in silico selection of diagnostic peptides from newly described viral pathogens and applied this approach to SARS-CoV-2/COVID-19. This approach is multi-tiered, beginning with compiling the theoretical protein sequences from genomic derived data. In the case of SARS-CoV-2 we begin with 496 peptides that would be produced by proteolytic digestion of the viral proteins. To eliminate peptides that would cause cross-reactivity ...
