Feline coronavirus drug inhibits the main protease of SARS-CoV-2 and blocks virus replication

Nature Communications, 2020
The main protease, Mpro (or 3CLpro) in SARS-CoV-2 is a viable drug target because of its essential role in the cleavage of the virus polypeptide. Feline infectious peritonitis, a fatal coronavirus infection in cats, was successfully treated previously ...
