Understanding Selenium and Glutathione as Antiviral Factors in COVID-19: Does the Viral M(pro) Protease Target Host Selenoproteins and Glutathione Synthesis?

Glutathione peroxidases (GPX), a family of antioxidant selenoenzymes, functionally link selenium and glutathione, which both show correlations with clinical outcomes in COVID-19. Thus, it is highly significant that cytosolic GPX1 has been shown to interact with an inactive C145A mutant of M(pro), th...
