An ongoing outbreak of a novel coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) has raised global concerns. It is identified as the cause of pneumonia with unknown etiology. Since the early outbreak in Wuhan, China, it has subsequently spread to all provinces of China and many other countries. The urgent epidemic situation has spurred the development of antiviral drugs and vaccines. As a leading service provider in the field of biological research and drug discovery, Creative Biolabs provides fast & elaborate therapeutic antibody discovery, drug candidates screening and vaccine development services to help combat this outbreak.

The SARS-CoV-2 virus that causes COVID-19 belongs to the
Coronaviridae family.
SARS-CoV-2
Coronaviruses Family
4. Spike Glycoprotein (S)
Get the virus into the cell
Hemagglutinin-esterase (HE)
May facilitate the virus to initially adsorb
the cell membrane
RNA and N Protein
N protein is related to the formation of
nucleocapsid in RNA genome
E-Protein
The smallest and most mysterious
Envelope
SARS-CoV-2 Structure

Virus germination and envelope formation
6. Screen the existing broad-spectrum
antiviral drugs.
Use existing molecular libraries and
databases to screen for molecules that may
have a therapeutic effect on SARS-CoV-2.
Develop specific drugs based on the
genomic information and pathological
characteristics of SARS-CoV-2.

SARS-CoV-2 Treatment Strategies
7. 3-1. Target to the Host
• Enhance immune response - such as the
release of interferon.
• Block the signal pathways
required for virus replication.
• Target viral and cell surface receptor
proteins (ACE2).
Object of Specific Drugs
8. • Prevent viral RNA synthesis - target
to the genetic material of the virus.
• Inhibit virus replication - target to
key enzymes of the virus.
• Block the virus’s binding to human
cell receptors or inhibiting the
virus’self-assembly process - target
to the structural proteins of the virus.
