Activity Information


Target Organism  HSV

Assay  beta-galactosidase activity(Comprehensive antiviral assay,Virus inactivation assay,cell protection assay,entry assay,attachment assay)

Activity 

  • [Ref.19104014]Herpes simplex virus type 1(HSV-1):comprehensive antiviral activity(EC50=15.0±2.2 µM);inhibition of virus entry in Vero cells(EC50=17.6±2.6 µM);inhibition of virus infection in Vero cells(EC50=71.5±17.4 µM);ability of inactive virus(EC50=118±11.6 µM);inhibition of virus attachment on Vero cells(EC50>200 µM).

Hemolytic Activity  No hemolysis information or data found in the reference(s) presented in this entry

Cytotoxicity 

  • [Ref.19104014]Not cytotoxic for Vero cells up to 200 µM.

Binding Target  Not found

Mechanism  It is also possible that gB122 could either prematurely trigger or inhibit a conformational change in the gB-1 molecule required for entry,and may be acting by blocking a protein-protein interaction.
