In this study, we presented a systematic approach to developing broad-spectrum M<sup>pro</sup> inhibitors, with a focus on high-risk CoVs. We optimised <b>S-217622</b> as a lead compound, with the goal of enhancing conserved interactions within the S1, S2, and S3/S4 pockets of M<sup>pro</sup>, leading to significantly improved inhibitory potency against representative CoVs. Compound <b>25</b> exhibited submicromolar activity across all ten CoVs, with IC<sub>50</sub> values below 0.1 μM for six of them. The X-ray co-crystal structure of SARS-CoV-2 M<sup>pro</sup> in complex with compound <b>25</b> revealed the structural basis of conserved interactions contributing to its broad-spectrum activity. This study demonstrates the feasibility of reinforcing conserved interactions to develop M<sup>pro</sup> inhibitors with broad-spectrum activity and provides valuable strategies for combating future pandemics caused by unknown CoVs.</p>","PeriodicalId":15769,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Enzyme Inhibition and Medicinal Chemistry","volume":"40 1","pages":"2503961"},"PeriodicalIF":5.6,"publicationDate":"2025-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12096674/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144110509","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
