Crystal Structure of SARS-CoV-2 Main Protease in Complex with the Non-Covalent Inhibitor ML188
3CLpro Crystallization Enzyme assay In vitro
in vitro enzyme assay; crystallization 3.82

The compound inhibited the SARS-CoV-2 3C-like protease in vitro with an IC50 of ca. 2.5 μM. Co-crystallized with the enzyme, there were structural indicators of improved noncovalent binding of the compound to the SARS-CoV2 3C-like protease compared to the SARS-CoV 3C-like protease.
