Covalent DNA-Encoded Library Workflow Drives Discovery of SARS-CoV-2 Nonstructural Protein Inhibitors. J.Am.Chem.Soc., 146:33983-33996, 2024 Cited by PubMed Abstract: The COVID-19 pandemic, exacerbated by persistent viral mutations, underscored the urgent need for diverse inhibitors targeting multiple viral proteins. In this study, we utilized covalent DNA-encoded libraries to discover innovative triazine-based covalent inhibitors for the 3-chymotrypsin-like protease (3CL, Nsp5) and the papain-like protease (PL) domains of Nsp3, as well as novel non-nucleoside covalent inhibitors for the nonstructural protein 12 (Nsp12, RdRp). Optimization through molecular docking and medicinal chemistry led to the development of , a nonpeptide 3CL inhibitor with an IC of 0.34 μM, and , whose crystal structure showed a distinct binding mode within the 3CL active site. The X-ray cocrystal structure of SARS-CoV-2 PL in complex with uncovered a previously unexplored binding site adjacent to the catalytic pocket. Additionally, a non-nucleoside covalent Nsp12 inhibitor achieved a potency of 0.12 μM following comprehensive structure-activity relationship analysis and optimization. Molecular dynamics revealed a potential binding mode. These compounds offer valuable chemical probes for target validation and represent promising candidates for the development of SARS-CoV-2 antiviral therapies.
