Optimizing peptide inhibitors of SARS-Cov-2 nsp10/nsp16 methyltransferase predicted through molecular simulation and machine learning

Coronaviruses, including the recent pandemic strain SARS-Cov-2, use a multifunctional 2′-O-methyltransferase (2′-O-MTase) to restrict the host defense mechanism and to methylate RNA. The nonstructural protein 16 2′-O-MTase (nsp16) becomes active when nonstructural protein 10 (nsp10) and nsp16 intera...
