Surface cysteines could protect the SARS-CoV-2 main protease from oxidative damage

The SARS-CoV-2 main protease (M(pro)) is responsible for cleaving twelve nonstructural proteins from the viral polyprotein. M(pro), a cysteine protease, is characterized by a large number of noncatalytic cysteine (Cys) residues, none involved in disulfide bonds. In the absence of a tertiary-structur...
