Y-U0-S
Y-U0-S is a potent inhibitor of the coronavirus main protease (Mpro) and host cathepsins. The IC50 values of Y-U0-S against SARS-CoV-2 Mpro, SARS-CoV Mpro, Cathepsin B, and Cathepsin L are 0.81, 1.14, 0.86, and 21.13 μM, respectively. Y-U0-S exhibits broad-spectrum anti-coronavirus activity, with an EC50 of 0.22 μM against wild-type SARS-CoV-2. Y-U0-S forms an irreversible covalent bond with the catalytic site C145 of Mpro through its aldehyde warhead, and by optimizing multi-site occupancy of the scaffold to engage conserved residues, it effectively blocks enzyme activity and inhibits viral replication. Y-U0-S can be used for research on COVID-19.
