    Abstract

    An outbreak of new SARS-like viral in Wuhan, China has been named 2019-nCoV. The current state of the epidemic is increasingly serious, and there has been the urgent necessity to develop an effective new drug. In previous studies, it was found that the conformation change in CTD1 was the region where SARS-CoV bound to human ACE2. Although there are mutations of the 2019-nCoV, the binding energy of ACE2 remains high.

    • Lectin-like Intestinal Defensin Inhibits 2019-nCoV Spike binding to ACE2 Cheng Wang, Shaobo Wang, Daixi Li, Xia Zhao, Songling Han, Tao Wang, Gaomei Zhao, Yin Chen, Fang Chen, Jianqi Zhao, Liting Wang, Wei Sun, Yi Huang, Yongping Su, Dongqing Wei, Jinghong Zhao, Junping Wang doi: https://doi.org/10.1101/2020.03.29.013490 Abstract The burgeoning epidemic caused by novel coronavirus 2019 (2019-nCoV) is currently a global concern. Angiotensin-converting enzyme-2 (ACE2) is a receptor of 2019-nCoV spike 1 protein (S1) and mediates viral entry into host cells. Despite the abundance of ACE2 in small intestine, few digestive symptoms are observed in patients infected by 2019-nCoV. Herein, we investigated the interactions between ACE2 and human defensins (HDs) specifically secreted by intestinal Paneth cells. The lectin-like HD5, rather than HD6, bound ACE2 with a high affinity of 39.3 nM and weakened the subsequent recruitment of 2019-nCoV S1. The cloak of HD5 on the ligand-binding domain of ACE2 was confirmed by molecular dynamic simulation. *注,本文为预印本论文手稿,是未经同行评审的初步报告,其观点仅供科研同行交流,并不是结论性内容,请使用者谨慎使用.

    • D3Targets-2019-nCoV: A Web Server to Identify Potential Targets for Antivirals Against 2019-nCoV Preprint submitted on 11.02.2020, 01:15 and posted on 11.02.2020, 11:51 by Yulong Shi Xinben Zhang Kaijie Mu Cheng Peng Zhengdan Zhu Xiaoyu Wang Yanqing Yang Zhijian Xu weiliang zhu 2019-nCoV has caused more than 560 deaths as of 6 February 2020 worldwide, mostly in China. Although there are no effective drugs approved, many clinical trials are incoming or ongoing in China which utilize traditional chinese medicine or modern medicine. Moreover, many groups are working on the cytopathic effect assay to fight against 2019-nCoV, which will result in compounds with good activity yet unknown targets. Identifying potential drug targets will be of great importance to understand the underlying mechanism of how the drug works. Here, we compiled the 3D structures of 17 2019-nCoV proteins and 3 related human proteins, which resulted in 208 binding pockets. Each submitted compound will be docked to these binding pockets by the docking software smina and the docking results will be presented in ascending order of compound-target interaction energy (kcal/mol). We hope the computational tool will shed some light on the potential drug target for the identified antivirals.
