drug target | the enzyme is a target for antiviral drug development | Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 |
physiological function | the enzyme is essential for processing viral polyproteins for replication and functions in host immune evasion by cleaving ubiquitin (Ub) and ubiquitin-like protein (Ubl) conjugates. The S1 sensor region within the S1 Ub-binding site of PLpro is a potential hotspot of variability that could alter host antiviral immune responses to newly emerging SARS-CoV-2 lineages | Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 |
