Activity Information


Target Organism  SARS-CoV-2

Assay  plaque assay

Activity 

  • [Ref.33580154]SARS-CoV-2:91% inhibition of replication in Vero-E6 cells at 10 μM;inhibition of replication in Calu-3 cells(IC50=46 nM).

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

Cytotoxicity 

  • [Ref.33580154]The peptide proved to be devoid of cell toxicity on Vero-E6 and Calu-3 cells.

Binding Target  Not found

Mechanism  The peptide was designed mimicking the N-terminal helix of hACE2 protein,which could prevent the SARS-CoV-2 from infecting human cells, blocking the interaction between hACE2 and the virus spike protein.
