Structure-Based Rational Design of a Selective Hydrolase Inhibitor of the Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus-2 Nsp3 Macrodomain. [PDF]
Viral macrodomains, which hydrolyze mono‐ADP‐ribosylated proteins to evade host immunity, represent emerging antiviral targets, yet their druggability remains underexplored.

Recurrent Loss of Macrodomain Activity in Host Immunity and Viral Proteins
Protein post-translational modifications (PTMs) are an important battleground in the evolutionary arms races that are waged between the host innate immune system and viruses.

Legionella metaeffector MavL reverses ubiquitin ADP-ribosylation via a conserved arginine-specific macrodomain [PDF]
ADP-ribosylation is a reversible post-translational modification involved in various cellular activities. Removal of ADP-ribosylation requires (ADP-ribosyl)hydrolases, with macrodomain enzymes being a major family in this category.

Screening assay to monitor mono-ADP-ribosylhydrolase activity of viral macrodomains in cells [PDF]
Mono-ADP-ribosylation, a modification of both proteins and nucleic acids, is implicated in innate immunity. Intracellularly, this modification is catalyzed by PARP enzymes, some induced in response to interferons.

The Conserved Macrodomain Is a Potential Therapeutic Target for Coronaviruses and Alphaviruses
Emerging and re-emerging viral diseases pose continuous public health threats, and effective control requires a combination of non-pharmacologic interventions, treatment with antivirals, and prevention with vaccines.

ADP-ribosylation is a common posttranslational modification that may have antiviral properties and impact innate immunity. To regulate this activity, macrodomain proteins enzymatically remove covalently attached ADP-ribose from protein targets.
