Efficient discovery of potential inhibitors for SARS-CoV-2 3C-like protease from herbal extracts using a native MS-based affinity-selection method.

Scientists developed a method for quickly screening active compounds from traditional Chinese medicines (TCMs) that may be effective against the 3C-like protease of SARS-CoV-2. Six common herbs were investigated, resulting in three potential noncovalent inhibitors: baicalein, scutellarein, and ganhuangenin, with IC values of 0.94, 3.02, and 0.84 μM, respectively. This study is promising for finding small molecule leads in TCMs to treat COVID-19.
