X-ray Crystallography-Guided Design and Synthesis of Cyclopentyl Heteroaryl Carboxylic Acid-Based Inhibitors of the SARS-CoV-2 Nsp3 Macrodomain (Mac1). [PDF]
Mac1 is a conserved macrodomain enzyme in the nonstructural protein 3 (Nsp3) of SARS-CoV-2 and is part of the viral replication machinery. Mac1 is a target for small-molecule inhibitors that could ultimately enable new COVID-19 therapeutics to be ...

Regulation of Copper Metabolism by Nitrogen Utilization in Saccharomyces cerevisiae
To understand the relationship between carbon or nitrogen utilization and iron homeostasis, we performed an iron uptake assay with several deletion mutants with partial defects in carbon or nitrogen metabolism. Among them, some deletion mutants defective

The Location of the Antimicrobial Peptide Maculatin 1.1 in Model Bacterial Membranes
Maculatin 1.1 (Mac1) is an antimicrobial peptide (AMP) from the skin secretions of Australian tree frogs. In this work, the interaction of Mac1 with anionic phospholipid bilayers was investigated by NMR, circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopy, neutron ...

Discovery of compounds that inhibit SARS-CoV-2 Mac1-ADP-ribose binding by high-throughput screening [PDF]
The emergence of several zoonotic viruses in the last twenty years, especially the pandemic outbreak of SARS-CoV-2, has exposed a dearth of antiviral drug therapies for viruses with pandemic potential. Developing a diverse drug portfolio will be critical

Crystal structures of SARS-CoV-2 ADP-ribose phosphatase: from the apo form to ligand complexes
Among 15 nonstructural proteins (Nsps), the newly emerging Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) encodes a large, multidomain Nsp3. One of its units is the ADP-ribose phosphatase domain (ADRP; also known as the macrodomain, MacroD),
