Identification of a Potent Pan-Coronaviral Main Protease Inhibitor.
J.Med.Chem., 2026

PubMed Abstract: The global impact of SARS-CoV-2 and the continued emergence of zoonotic coronaviruses underscore the urgent need for broad-spectrum antivirals for pandemic preparedness. Herein, we report , a covalent pan-coronaviral inhibitor that targets 19 Ms across the α, β, γ, and δ genera, encompassing bat, human, and other animal coronaviruses. exhibits low nanomolar potency and favorable pharmacokinetics in mice. Structural studies reveal that forms a covalent bond with the catalytic cysteine and maintains conserved interactions within the active sites of these Ms. , efficiently inhibited the replication of SARS-CoV-2 and its variants of concern as well as the activity of Ms from all four genera. Furthermore, in mouse models, conferred dose-dependent protection against a lethal SARS-CoV-2 infection. Our findings position as an early lead compound and a tractable structural starting point for the development of broad-spectrum antivirals against future coronavirus spillover threats.
