Like many viruses, SARS-CoV2 synthesizes its proteins in long, polypeptide chains that must be cleaved to form functional proteins. The coronavirus ORF 1 polyprotein can be divided into an N-terminal region that is processed by one or two Papain-like proteases and a C-terminal region which is processed by the main protease. <ref> Enjuanes, L., (2005). Coronavirus replication and reverse genetics Berlin; New York: Springer, S. 69-78. </ref> While papain-like protease(s) cleave only three sites, the main protease cleaves 11 sites in the polyprotein to generate functional proteins. Additionally, the main protease cleaves its own N- and C-terminal autoprocessing sites. The cleaved functional proteins include viral enzymes needed for replication such as the RNA-dependant RNA polymerase, a helicase and other non-structural or accessory proteins such as an exoribonuclease, an endoribonuclease, a ssRNA binding protein and a 2’-O-ribose methyltransferase. <ref> Muramatsu, T., Takemoto, C., Kim, Y.-T., Wang, H., Nishii, W., Terada, T., Shirouzu, M. & Yokoyama, S.
