Structure and drug binding of the SARS-CoV-2 envelope protein transmembrane domain in lipid bilayers

An essential protein of the SARS-CoV-2 virus, the envelope protein E, forms a homopentameric cation channel that is important for virus pathogenicity. Here we report a 2.1-Å structure and the drug-binding site of E’s transmembrane domain (ETM), determined using solid-state NMR spectroscopy. In lipid...
