Journal ArticleDOI
Delicate structural coordination of the Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome coronavirus Nsp13 upon ATP hydrolysis.
Zhihui Jia,Liming Yan,Zhilin Ren,Lijie Wu,Jin Wang,Jing Guo,Litao Zheng,Zhenhua Ming,Lianqi Zhang,Zhiyong Lou,Zihe Rao,Zihe Rao,Zihe Rao +12 more
TL;DR: The structure of the full-length Nsp13 helicase of SARS-CoV (SARS-Nsp13) is presented and the structural coordination of its five domains is investigated, which provides new insights into the Replication and Transcription Complex (RTC) of CoVs.
Journal ArticleDOI
The newly emerged SARS-Like coronavirus HCoV-EMC also has an 'Achilles' heel': current effective inhibitor targeting a 3C-like protease
TL;DR: By solving the crystal structure of HCoV-EMC main protease with a wide-spectrum anti-CoV inhibitor N3, it is argued that CoVs will not be a threat to human health.
Journal ArticleDOI
Purification, crystallization and preliminary X-ray analysis of nonstructural protein 2 (nsp2) from avian infectious bronchitis virus
Kun Yu,Zhenhua Ming,Yuanyuan Li,Cheng Chen,Zehua Bao,Zhilin Ren,Bofeng Liu,Wei Tao,Zihe Rao,Zhiyong Lou +9 more
TL;DR: Nonstructural protein 2 from avian infectious bronchitis virus has been overexpressed in E. coli, purified and crystallized and it has been found that it acts as a “spatially aggregating force” to form nonstructural proteins.
Journal ArticleDOI
Expression, crystallization and preliminary crystallographic study of the C-terminal half of nsp2 from SARS coronavirus.
TL;DR: The C-terminal domain of SARS coronavirus nonstructural protein 2 was cloned, overexpressed, purified and crystallized; the crystals diffracted to 2.5 Å resolution.
