The main protease is a cysteine protease that is essential for the viral life cycle. It is forms a <scene name='95/952725/Dimer/1'>homodimer</scene> consisting of the perpendicular protomers A and B. One protomer consists of <scene name='86/866577/Domains/2'>three domains</scene>. Domain I and II (N-terminal domain) form an antiparallel chymotrypsin-like ß-barrel structure. Domain III (C-terminal end) consist of five alpha-helices arranged in an antiparallel cluster. <ref> Yang, H., Yang, M., Ding, Y., Liu, Y., Lou, Z., Zhou, Z., Sun, L., Mo, L., Ye, S., Pang, H., Gao, G.
