We are releasing a new COVID CPU (GRO_A7) project 14337 to ADVANCED. This is very exciting, because these projects screen potential inhibitors of the coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 main protease. This is the first of many such projects to be released.

14337 - FEP screening of Coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 main protease in complex with potential inhibitors (100_Ligands)

CORONAVIRUS PROJECT

These projects are part of Folding@home’s efforts to assist researchers around the world taking up the global fight against COVID-19. At the time of release, this is the latest news update: https://foldingathome.org/2020/03/10/covid19-update/

These are CPU projects to simulate COVID-19 proteins to learn about their dynamics and function. These supplement high-priority GPU projects of the main protease as well as the COVID-19 receptor binding domains. All can be considered potential drug targets.
