Binding Target  Glycoprotein.

Mechanism  DFTavP2 likely combats the Ebola virus by interacting with viral glycoproteins or host cell receptors, thereby inhibiting viral entry into host cells. It may disrupt viral membranes, compromising the virus's structural integrity and function. The peptide could also interfere with the virus's replication machinery by binding to viral RNA or essential proteins. Overall, these mechanisms highlight DFTavP2's potential in blocking critical stages of the Ebola virus lifecycle
