Abstract
      
    
The novel coronavirus SARS-CoV-2, the causative agent of COVID-19 
respiratory disease, has infected over 2.3 million people, killed over 
160,000, and caused worldwide social and economic disruption1,2.
 There are currently no antiviral drugs with proven clinical efficacy, 
nor are there vaccines for its prevention, and these efforts are 
hampered by limited knowledge of the molecular details of SARS-CoV-2 
infection. To address this, we cloned, tagged and expressed 26 of the 29
 SARS-CoV-2 proteins in human cells and identified the human proteins 
physically associated with each using affinity-purification mass 
spectrometry (AP-MS), identifying 332 high-confidence SARS-CoV-2-human 
protein-protein interactions (PPIs). Among these, we identify 66 
druggable human proteins or host factors targeted by 69 compounds (29 
FDA-approved drugs, 12 drugs in clinical trials, and 28 preclinical 
compounds).
Screening a subset of these in multiple viral assays identified two sets of pharmacological agents that displayed antiviral activity: inhibitors of mRNA translation and predicted regulators of the Sigma1 and Sigma2 receptors. Further studies of these host factor targeting agents, including their combination with drugs that directly target viral enzymes, could lead to a therapeutic regimen to treat COVID-19.

PUSL1 (Pseudouridine Synthase Like 1) is a Protein Coding gene.
                                            Diseases associated with PUSL1 include Myopathy, Lactic Acidosis, And Sideroblastic Anemia.
                                            
                                            Gene Ontology (GO) annotations related to this gene include RNA binding and pseudouridine synthase activity.
                                            An important paralog of this gene is PUS3.
