Recently, COVID-19 has raised significant public health concerns globally. However, the some pivotal structure of the causative agent, SARS-CoV-2, is yet not quite clear. In this study, Dan Su et al. determined the structure of SARS-CoV-2 nonstructural protein 9 (nsp9), an RNA-binding protein that is essential for CoV replication, which may be essential for the regulation of viral RNA replication and transcription.
