Based on the intermolecular contact maps (COCOMAPS tool) of ACE2-S complex structure, three short peptides (pep1c, pep1d, pep1e) were designed to block virus-host interaction in the early stages of SARS-CoV-2 infection. New therapeutics for oral administration against SARS-CoV-2 infection can be developed using these peptides, which could be an alternative to traditional drug development.

Structural characterization of Peptide-bound SARS-CoV-2 Nsp9 RNA-replicase. 3C sequence forms β sheet interactions with the N terminus of the protein from the other protomer, as a result N terminal residues move outward by ∼1.6 Ć (residues 6–10). The significance of this is yet to be established.
