Binding Target DII domain of the E protein (RVFV-10 may interact with a specific region of the Ebola virus (EBOV) d
Mechanism RVFV-10, a fusion-inhibiting peptide derived from the RVFV Gc stem region, displayed inhibitory effects against Ebola virus (EBOV) in a plaque-reduction assay, albeit less effectively than RVFV-6. Despite demonstrating weaker inhibition compared to RVFV-6, RVFV-10's efficacy against EBOV prompted further evaluation, ultimately leading to the selection of RVFV-6 for subsequent studies due to its superior inhibitory activity.
