Cytotoxicity
Binding Target Hemagglutinin protein
Mechanism The complete sequence (155–185) corresponds to the HA2 portion that bundles to the inner coiled-coil that is crucial for the fusion process; compound P155–181 lacks the four final residues between the N-capped coiled-coil and the transmembrane domain, while compound P155–175 corresponds to the most truncated sequence deficient the N-cap motif. Only cholesterol-tagged compounds containing the N-cap motif (155–185-Chol and 155–181-Chol) demonstrated antiviral activity against IAV/H3N2 in cell culture, most likely due to the ability of the cholesterol to fasten the peptide to the membrane and to form nanoparticles
