Abstact

A titrant for the SARS-CoV-2 main protease (Mpro) was developed that enables, for the first time, the exact determination of the concentration of the enzymatically active Mpro by active-site titration. The covalent binding mode of the tetrapeptidic titrant was elucidated by the determination of the crystal structure of the enzyme-titrant complex. Four fluorogenic substrates of Mpro, including a prototypical, internally quenched Dabcyl-EDANS peptide, were compared in terms of solubility under typical assay conditions. By exploiting the new titrant, key kinetic parameters for the Mpro-catalyzed cleavage of these substrates were determined.
