Recently described inhibitors of the CoV PL2pro. (A) Structural formula of the purine derivative 8-(trifluoromethyl)-9H-purin-6-amine (compound 4). This compound is a competitive MERS-CoV PL2pro inhibitor (Lee et al., 2015). It is also active against SARS-CoV PL2pro but acts as an allosteric inhibitor in this case. (B) A natural-product chalcone, compound 6 from the perennial plant Angelica keiskei, inhibits the SARS-CoV Mpro (3CLpro) and PL2proin vitro (Park et al., 2016).
