Synthetic organic
Comment: Compound 3k is reported as an inhibitor of the papain-like protease (PL-pro) of SARS-CoV [1]. It was the most potent in the series both in terms of inhibiting enzyme activity (IC50 150 nM) and in terms of reducung viral replication in cell culture (EC50 = 5400 nM). The X-ray structure of the PL-pro/3k complex was submitted to the RCSB Protein Data Bank and has accession 4OW0. Activity of 3k vs. SARS-CoV-2 PL-pro has not yet been published.
