Structure, mechanism and crystallographic fragment screening of the SARS-CoV-2 NSP13 helicase
The SARS-CoV-2 NSP13 helicase is essential for viral replication and of interest as a drug target. Here, the authors present the crystal structures of NSP13 in the apo form and bound to either phosphate or the non-hydrolysable ATP analog AMP-PNP and discuss the helicase mechanism. They also perform...

| Sumario: | The SARS-CoV-2 NSP13 helicase is essential for viral replication and of interest as a drug target. Here, the authors present the crystal structures of NSP13 in the apo form and bound to either phosphate or the non-hydrolysable ATP analog AMP-PNP and discuss the helicase mechanism. They also perform a crystallographic fragment screening and identify 65 bound fragments, which could help in the design of new antiviral agents. |
