Redefining NSP12 activity in SARS-CoV-2 and its regulation by NSP8 and NSP7 [PDF]
RdRp is a critical component of an RNA virus life cycle. Among coronaviruses, NSP12, along with one copy of NSP7 and two copies of NSP8, forms the RdRp holoenzyme and exhibits polymerase activity.

Cellular eEF1G Inhibits Porcine Deltacoronavirus Replication by Binding Nsp12 and Disrupting Its Interaction with Viral Genomic RNA [PDF]
Porcine deltacoronavirus (PDCoV) is an emerging pathogen that causes severe, often fatal, diarrhea in suckling piglets and has zoonotic potential. Its nonstructural protein 12 (Nsp12), functioning as the RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp), is a central ...

Preclinical Screening Platform Identifies Azatadine-Dimaleate as a Potent Repurposed Therapeutic Against SARS-CoV-2 Infection. [PDF]
ABSTRACT The emergence of SARS‐CoV‐2 posed a major global public health threat, necessitating urgent development of therapeutics. Despite vaccine availability, continuous emergence of viral variants with enhanced transmissibility and immune escape capabilities, and consequential impacts on health services, requires effective antiviral therapeutics ...

Five-Year (2017-2022) Evolutionary Dynamics of Human Coronavirus OC43 in Southern France Based on Whole Genome Next-Generation Sequencing. [PDF]
ABSTRACT HCoV‐OC43 genomes and their evolution are scarcely studied worldwide and in France, with only 361 genomes available as of October 2023. Here, an in‐house PCR amplification system was implemented to obtain retrospectively by next‐generation sequencing, then analyze HCoV‐OC43 genomes for infections diagnosed with this virus in southern France ...

Remdesivir and Obeldesivir Retain Potent Antiviral Activity Against SARS-CoV-2 Omicron Variants [PDF]
As new SARS-CoV-2 variants continue to emerge, it is important to evaluate the potency of antiviral drugs to support their continued use. Remdesivir (RDV; VEKLURY®) an approved antiviral treatment for COVID-19, and obeldesivir (ODV) are inhibitors of the

The impact of remdesivir on SARS-CoV-2 evolution in vivo [PDF]
The impact of remdesivir on SARS-CoV-2 diversity and evolution in vivo has remained unclear. In this single-center, retrospective cohort study, we assessed SARS-CoV-2 diversification and diversity over time in a cohort of hospitalized patients who did or
