Activity Information


Target Organism  MERS-CoV

Assay  Cell–Cell Fusion Assay

Activity 

  • [Ref.30646495]MERS-CoV:inhibition of cell-cell fusion between 293T cells and Huh-7 cells(IC50=0.38 μM);
  • MERS-CoV Q1020:inhibition of Pseudovirus Infection in Huh-7 cells(IC50=0.34 μM);
  • MERS-CoV Q1020H:inhibition of Pseudovirus Infection in Huh-7 cells(IC50=0.44 μM).

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

Cytotoxicity 

  • [Ref.30646495]No cytotoxicity against Huh-7 cells up to 100 μM.

Binding Target  membrane

Mechanism  The peptide bind with HR1 of MERS-CoV and thus disrupting the process of MERS-6HB formation can inhibit virus–cell membrane fusion and abolish viral infection.
