NMR spectroscopy has played a pivotal role in fragment-based drug discovery by coupling detection of weak ligand-target binding with structural mapping of the binding site. Fragment-based screening by NMR has been successfully applied to many soluble protein targets, but only to a limited number of membrane proteins, despite the fact that many drug targets are membrane proteins. This is partly because of difficulties preparing membrane proteins for NMR-especially human membrane proteins-and...
[NMR paper] NMR spectroscopy of the main protease of SARS-CoV-2 and fragment-based screening identify three protein hotspots and an antiviral fragment
NMR spectroscopy of the main protease of SARS-CoV-2 and fragment-based screening identify three protein hotspots and an antiviral fragment
The main protease (3CLp) of the SARS-CoV-2, the causative agent for the COVID-19 pandemic, is one of the main targets for drug development. To be active, 3CLp relies on a complex interplay between dimerization, active site flexibility, and allosteric regulation. The deciphering of these mechanisms is a crucial step to enable the search for inhibitors. In this context, using NMR spectroscopy, we studied the conformation of dimeric 3CLp from the...

High-throughput screening of libraries containing compounds of 'drug-like' molecular weight has frequently resulted in no or poor drug candidates, especially when screening against demanding drug targets such as protein-protein interactions. Fragment-based lead discovery and optimization has evolved as a...
